And I just spent 5 minutes crying at my desk over Calli's father. Whom I never met. But I know how much she loved him.
Mal: Yeah, well, just be careful. We cheated Badger out of good money to buy that frippery, and you're supposed to make me look respectable. Kaylee: Yes, sir, Captain Tightpants.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Calli, I am so very sorry.

Porter is magic!
And I just spent 5 minutes crying at my desk over Calli's father. Whom I never met. But I know how much she loved him.
It was her LJ post that made me cry.
Which -- Calli, I don't know if you'll see this, but I am so sorry. Peace to you and your family.

What's your Arnold Palmer-ized version of a half and half?
half sweet lemonade, half unsweetened iced tea
In TOTAL agreement on this. That's what an Arnold Palmer is.
Porter is magic!
Also yes! THIS! But I love stout too, so I'm easy with the dark beers.
Calli, I'm so sorry about your father.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Calli, I know your father passed knowing he was loved. Much strength to you.

Calli, I'm sorry for your loss.
