Every nightmare I have that doesn't revolve around academic failure or public nudity is about that thing. In fact, once I dreamt that it attacked me while I was late for a test and naked.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

Do you think that Serenity fans are more spoilerphobic or just smaller in numbers?

hip deep in pie

Allyson, there's an unspoilery review (believe it or not) at AICN. I don't know what Joss is holding over people's head that somewhere like AICN would post a script review without revealing plot points.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

AICN script review. He's quite assiduous about being unspoilery.

He does post one Mal/Wash exchange -- Wash still seems huggable.

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

Smaller in numbers, haven't been around nearly as long. I still think of them as a fandom in its infancy that was sort of hobbled by the quick demise of the show.

It should be noted that I'm terribly biased toward the Buffy fandom, crazy as they make me.

Of course you are but, you never seem to slight the Firefly fandom.

Thanks for that.

Do people usually slight the fandom? I often wonder if the Firefly fandom feels like the bastard step-child of the Whedonverse fandoms.

I think of Firefly as Joss' favoritist child, the baby.

The fandom never got the attention that Buffy fans received in the beginning, when Joss was younger, had more hair on his head and less on his face, and was less busy.

I do have serious eye-roll moments with the Firefly fandom, though not the blind rage I feel toward the Buffy/Angel fandoms.

But I get my share of blind rage and eye-rolls directed at me, so we're all probably even.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Thanks for posting the link to interview with person-whose-presence-could-conceivably-be-considered-a-spoilier-for-rabid-spoiler-phobes. I've been vaguely following his career since he had a huge amount of acclaim for a play at the National a few years ago, and I really enjoyed the interview. Although it made me cry, actually. Stupidly. Inasmuch as one can like these people whom one doesn't know at all, I find myself liking him enormously.

I'm very happy he's going to be in Serenity.

No. I just meant that you don't which would be easy to do since your heart lies with the Buffy folks.

We do too and are very grateful.

I was actually trying to convey that all you do for the Firefly fandom is appreciated whether you get attitude from some or not.

I saw him in Trust, and was nicely impressed.
