Discussion of all Firefly episodes, including "Trash", "The Message", "Heart of Gold", and any movie news.
Yes, because we know from experience how well trying to avert prophecies in something written by Joss Whedon goes....
All I can say is if I end up stuck with a bratty medically-impossible miracle child because someone else had to monkey around with a prophecy, there will be Hell. To. Pay.
Stoopid job.
'S cool, Lilty. It's going to be a hit&run sort of weekend, so I'm not sure how much time outside of family and errands I'm going to have. I think I'm going to stop in at The Great Lost Bear sometime 7-ish tonight for a burger and a couple of beers on my way through Portland, but I'm not even sure about that at this point.

I've been there, lots, and Tom Scola was there once too!

That's right - you usually do a summer vacation Down East, don't you?
Plus I used to work at the Law School, a few blocks away from the Great Lost Bear, and live even closer.
Do the Joss people ever =stay= dead?
Joyce. Tara. Doyle. Jenny.
Yes.
ETA: I suppose I could be misunderstanding your question.
Buffy, Spike, and Angel were the people sfmarty was probably referencing there. Let's put it this way--if you don't die cataclysmically/superdramatically, you aren't coming back, and even then it's 50/50, I'd say.
Buffy/Angelverse death does appear to be a relative state, but the Fireflyverse is emphatically vamp, ghost, were-anything and mystic portal-less, and the only way back from death we've seen so far is if you are killed by your mortal enemy who happens to have a lot of handy high-tech gadgets around with which to revivify you so he can recommence with the torture.
Which, please, not our Wash. Leave him rest, poor thing.
Not if Kahn tries to get hold of the Genesis project.
