You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

He must have not been watching when she was all shot and dying, huh?

That was in the final episode, remember.

Adrian Pasdar: bringing hot (and ambiguously gay) to a new level since Top Gun.

To be fair, Kaylee managed a bit of a smile. Granted, it was shocky and weak, but ... oh wait. That was utterly appropriate and believable.

Jewel is *so* my TV girlfriend.

ION, did y'all see this?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Don't the first ten count as early?

I stand by my disagreeing with OSC, though. He must not have the cute-girl-good-with-machinery-GUH! reaction that I do, 'cuz i never found Kaylee annoying.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

tiaxiaode, heh. That's actually being discussed over in Minearverse, and the columnist is a brand-new Buffista.

I have to say, it took me a while to warm up to Kaylee properly, and she's still probably my least favourite character. That's got nothing to do with Jewel Staite though, and more to do with my intolerence for cheerful people.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

It was the "Engines make her HOT" scene that allowed me to finally really connect with Kaylee and "get" her. Now I want to fiercely protect her from all evil. Kaylee has no inner conflicts, no inner demons, she knows who she is and likes herself; having no anger, she projects none onto her world or the people in it.

In defense of this post, I am slightly drunk and have been talking Freud and Jung all afternoon.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

In OIS Kaylee is the only one with no secrets. She just is.

Can someone please post what I mean more eloquently.

Thank you.

I'm doing something not-so-polite and quoting myself ( Nilly "Firefly 3: Too Damned Pretty to Die" Aug 10, 2004 5:25:01 am PDT):

If I'm not mistaken, the only one that River didn't get a different-than-what-I'm-really-saying-right-now line from, was Kaylee. Is it that with Kaylee it's so very much "what you see is what you get", no dark secrets, no shadowed corners of the soul? Or does it have anything to do with Kaylee seemingly being the only one who connected to River as River, not any other adjective that any other members of the crew may have used? Or that the two are connected? Or does it have anything to do with the way Kaylee tried to distance herself from River after "War Stories", and now either she closed herself up or River tries to be considerate and not reach out to her too much, sensing her fear, the dryness of the friendship that started to bloom between them? Obviously, I have no idea. I just thought it was such a lovely touch.
