My concern is that 20th is going to shut down the auctions and things will get...um...unpleasant in fandom.
Or maybe you could just be Buffy, he'll see your amazing heart, and he'll fall in love with you.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
She doesn't have the right to sell that stuff?

I don't know what her deal was with 20th and whether or not she has releases from them but, generally speaking, when you are employed by 20th Century Fox to create X for their Y TV show, you are not authorized to sell X, even if they have cancelled Y.
Allyson can tell you all about how ME threw stuff away because 20th wouldn't let them give it to fans for a charity auction.

I hope she checked. I can't see how she could fly under their radar long.

I think 20th has people who actually check ebay regularly for unauthorized auctions.
They might have even shut me down once. I don't remember for what. Maybe my Serenity floorplan renderings?

Sequel rumours...reposted almost in entirety.
IGN FilmForce has heard that, although it was very disappointed in the poor boxoffice showing for Serenity, Universal may not have retired Captain Malcolm Reynolds and his renegade crew just yet.
Sources said that, given the strong sales of the TV series Firefly on DVD, Universal is planning a sequel film to Serenity that will be produced with and to broadcast premiere on the Sci Fi Channel, which is part of the NBC Universal family.
The project is said to be a lower budget undertaking streamlined for the small-screen.
IGN FilmForce checked with Joss Whedon's camp who denied the claim; Universal did not comment.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Sources say: I call bullshit.

IGN is... not particularly reliable as a news source.

All this time, I thought Hunter was a bitch. Turns out she was just hungry.

Shawna's auction is one that's been in the works for quite a while, and I'd be really surprised if she hadn't gotten all the permissions fairly long ago.
