It's totally adorable.
And Kaylee, what the hell's goin' on in the engine room? Were there monkeys? Some terrifying space monkeys maybe got loose?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I'm hoping someone can help me find a Firefly fic that I skimmed and want to finish but didn't save the link to. I couldn't find it in Firefly's Glow Archive and thought it might ring a bell with someone here.
I remember that it's a Jayne/Simon story, set at Christmas, and there was something about Kaylee blaming Jayne for Simon turning her down. I didn't read enough of it to get a feel for its quality though, so if you know which one I'm talking about about and it's bad, let me know that too and I'll stop looking for it. Thanks

The weird part is, books written and marketed as "YA" or older children's fiction may be virginal, but what great numbers of 12-15 year old readers find is not.
Heh. Heh heh. I found a copy of Dhalgren mixed in with tattered copies of A.E. Van Vogt in the pulpy sf and fantasy corner at the public library.
Definitely not a virginal book. Of course, that wasn't so much why it made my brain go explode-y.

pardon the intrusion but this has been bugging me for WEEKS and it's not in the FAQ. What is the meaning of "mpreg"?
figured you kids would be the ones to ask and this would be the place to ask it. thanks!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Oh, are you sure you want to know?
Okay.
It's a strange genre of fanfic which involves male pregnancy.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Male PREGnancy.
You were probably better off not knowing.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Thing is, though, that right off the top of my head I can think of three instances of genre shows/movies actually featuring MPreg. Not fanfic - the shows themselves.
I've not read any MPreg fanfic & don't have any particular urge to (unless someone I knew to be an excellent writer were to tackle it, in which case, sure, whatever) but I know it's out there - still, I do feel the need to point out that Enterprise and Alien Nation both featured MPreg, as have various crappy movies and shows like that Arnie vehicle with Emma Thompson. For example.
Um.
