Jayne: Captain, can you stop her from bein' cheerful, please? Mal: I don't believe there is a power in the 'verse that can stop Kaylee from being cheerful. Sometimes you just wanna duct tape her mouth and dump her in the hold for a month.

Firefly 4: Also, we can kill you with our brains
Discussion of the Mutant Enemy series, Firefly, the ensuing movie Serenity, and other projects in that universe. Like the other show threads, anything broadcast in the US is fine; spoilers are verboten and will be deleted if found.

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

All is well that ends in pizza.
Yes, but they have beautiful plumage....

Which I think the ninjas would like.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.
Consuela: (from another, now deceased instance of this thread) I was trying to make the point, in my usual telegraphic and obscure style that Moon's characters seem to get conflict and pain from their families, in contrast to Cherryh's characters, who have some discord in the family unit, to be sure, but are able to put it aside when the external world comes calling with problems.
Not that you were still wondering.
I need to stop smoking. I think it does things to my brain.
It does. You are hallucinating ninjas in tropical plumage. Put the pipe down!

Hmmm. The leads do, apparently. They're always terribly misunderstood by those closest to them. But they do seem to pull together when necessary. Certainly the Serranos are some huge power in the Familias universe, and the Vatta in the new series (same universe, different location, perhaps? both use ansibles) appear to be struggling to protect one another as best they can. FWIW.

Take your fingers off it, don't you dare touch it, you know it don't belong to you, to you...
You know, I don't know why I haven't been around here more often, without the Buffistas I have to have discussions of ninjas w/ beautiful plumage w/ my own head, it gets boring.
I want Pirate Ninjas though.

libkitty:
I'm also left-handed, and made this pattern for AnotherAlaskan for Christmas. I used the flat pattern, because my 10.5 circulars are too long, and it came out a little small. I recommend using the larger size. It's so fun to make, though, and I think it went over well as a gift. I need to get more suitably ugly yarn now!
I bought some orange yarn this morning (well, now it's yesterday morning), and I plan on using double-pointeds. I want to get used to using them, anyway - I have plans to make historically accurate stockings - and I'm fairly sure I don't have circular needles that will give me the guage I want.

Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.
Someone on another board emailed Universal to find out when the preview for Serenity will be shown. The answer was May 6 attached to Hitchhiker's Guide to the Universe. (This could be a rumor, but still.) I got the info here [link]
