An all around squeeee

First off, we got one of the trailers (a Brokeback spoof) we made for the Firefly film up on YouTube. Here's the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kAOY3kN1qeA. I can't watch it 'cause of my dialup, so could somebody verify that the link as I have it here works before I go put it in Writercon?

We so wanna get the movie online but we'd have to break a fifty minute movie up into 2 minute intervals for that to work with the file size limitations, which seems a suck ass way to watch it LOL

Secondly, lyrstzha did a DVD Commentary for my story "Rumpelstiltskin." She made me sound so freaking smart. *g* One of the very wonderful things I love about writing is that so often authors do things very much not on purpose, and I loved seeing where those things happened for this piece. I'm all glowy inside.

Water in One Hand by ana_grrl. Mal/Simon, post-BDM. Ana makes the world end again, and oh is it so sweet. Simon half-smiles at him and steps forward, his hands – wet, sudsy – wrapping around Mal's biceps. "I will. Soap gets itchy. But this first." And he leans in, gets closer, kissing Mal on the lips. It's hard, firm, there's nothing tentative about it. Maybe Simon learned that from Kaylee, years ago, how to take what you want.

Firefly

Making God Laugh by puritybrown Jayne/Simon, rated R, post-BDM and long. "Is this going to scar?" Simon ties off the last of the sutures and cuts the thread neatly before answering, "No, I don't think so." "Good," says Zoë. "I don't know about you, but if I'm going to have scars, I'd like them to have some kind of story behind them. 'I was cutting some bread and my hand slipped' is not the kind of story I had in mind."

Watcher by executrix This is such a bleak portrait of Mal. It hurts me and I love it.

Decor by executrix Simon/Inara, Adult. And this is the story I'm mad for. The story you've got to read, everybody, because it will blow your minds. This is chock full of amazing imagery and some of the most extraordinary sensory image I've read in fanfic. It is in some ways, a truncated character study of Simon and Inara, and I adore their two approaches to the arrangement they make. I'm not gonna quote from this because you have to read everything in its original context.
