Suela's story is also gorgeous.
Sometimes I miss having powers... Oh. Oh! I know what this is! This is peer pressure! Any second now you're gonna make me smoke tobacco and--and have drugs!

Did I say I loved your Mal/Simon story? I think I did. Puppies! I loved Jayne and the puppies the best.
I grew up with Lhasa Apsos, and they're a lot like Shih Tzus, and the puppies are the most adorable critters ever: little roly furballs. So cute. The image of Jayne and Mal dealing with the puppies is just priceless.

You did, thank you.
The image of the whole crew with puppies was too much to resist, once it popped into my head.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
That just made my entire day.

So Maayan has given up on Stargate, declared an amnesty, and posted two unfinished stories. Because it's Maayan, they're significantly better than 95% of what's out there, even though unfinished. Well worth the read, if you're interested.
Gethsamane Confidential is Sam and Daniel on the run.
World Without Milk (and part 2) is a Farscape/Stargate crossover, which promised to be epic and fascinating. What happens when Anubis turns his attention to the Uncharted Territories? It's all Crichton, Daniel, and Jacob. Guest appearance by Jool near the end. Unfinished, likely to remain so, but you can see the framework for something fascinating, and the writing shines.
And now she's off to the Potterverse, which frustrates me. Ah, well. I'll read it anyway, in all likelihood.

My eyes have actually begun to glaze over every time I glance at a new chapter of the golf cart story, but:
The pants fit him perfectly, hugging every muscled thigh
Okay, if he has more than two, they should have been a little more careful with that post-apocalyptic radiation.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Maybe there is more than one person in those pants? I mean, they would also have to be special, many-legged pants (because 2 legs per pantleg do not "fit perfectly" make), but better shared pants than individuals with five legs.

In a way, I know what she's aiming for...the pants fit Michael perfectly, and accentuate his muscular legs. But it's like she's off-key, like all the time, it's weird.(and I realize that last sentence doesn't actually argue my linguistic mastery, except maybe to Angela Chase.)

It's an easy fix, really. Not "every muscled thigh" but "each muscled thigh." That would make it slightly purple prose, but not leave the reader with the impression that you have to count the thighs.
