Brain started writing fic this morning and wouldn't leave me alone for hours. Rather a PITA when work is a necessity and class for work follows work. It seems I am now going to be expected by said brain to work in both newly minted canon and limbo-canon universes, possibly both at once, which could get quite interesting. Not sure yet whether that would be in the dictionary or the Chinese sense. Either way, if there is any NaNoWriMo activity on my part, it will likely be on the limbo-canon Monsterfic that I should have finished long ago had I not chosen to be a pirate instead. This is because owing on Prophecy is a given with all things Firefly and I'm really not in the mood right now to go where that one goes. And because I have about a paragraph, tops, in new-canon, with no idea where to take it after that.

Oct. 3rd, 2005 09:44 pmThe below-referenced personality test has been verified as a valid and good test by me,
sekl, and
kelson. Any test on which I score Hermione, Ravenclaw, Kaylee, or (according to empirical evidence) Gimli is a good test. Any good Serenity test on which K also scores Wash is verified as a valid test. Therefore, this is a good and valid test and you need to take it. Right now.
![]() | You scored as Kaylee Frye. The Mechanic. You are a natural mechanic, and you are far too sweet and cheerful to live out here. How you can see the good in everyone around you boggles the mind occationally. Still you don't seem to be any crazier than that, and it is a nice kinda crazy.
