Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Is Mark Sheppard voicing the Geico gecko? It sure sounds like him.

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

Zenkitty, what you just said about Simon sums up maybe the most underappreciated character in the crew. Better than I could've. I thought Simon in the opening of Serenity was just Simon in his element. Thank you.

That online chat was a farce. A farcey farce. A farcical farcey farce.

Simon is lovely btw, I was thrilled to see that he was the first character to appear on the original trailer.

What is even happening?

A hodgeberry sister?

*shaky fist* Time and tide had managed to sweep that out of my brain, and I was all pleasantly swoony over movie!Simon. Now I gotta hurl.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I hope so. I am in love with that little lizard.

I agree. While it was deeper into the whole military-ruled section of the Alliance than Simon was used to, it was still the Alliance. From the Firefly flashbacks, I gather that he grew up with the mid- to upper-level Alliance folks, talked the talk, probably knew the fine gradients of social standing and such. It would have been far easier for Simon to infiltrate the research facility than, say, Mal, for all Mal's military history.

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

A hodgeberry sister?

And now, the Hodgeberry Sisters, with their number one single, "Eat this."

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

That online chat was a farce. A farcey farce. A farcical farcey farce.

But a funny farce!

Your mother was a beagle, and your father smelled of hodgeberries!
