Sing me a story, laugh me a lullaby

Title: The Car Doctor
Characters: Ray (Kowalski) Vecchio, Kaylee Frye
Rating: G
Spoilers: none
Word count: 802
Summary: When the car breaks down, Ray finds an extremely cute mechanic to help out.
Author's notes: Written for A Ficathon Walks into a Bar (intoabar) with the prompt "Ray Kowalski walks into a bar and meets...Kaylee Frye". Kinda on the short side, since my epic cold ate into my planned writing time. Thanks to Ama for helping me hash out the plot. Set in the due South 'verse post-Easy Money, with an alt Kaylee from sometime before the Serenity pilot.

( Ah, see here’s your problem )

Title: Distractions
Characters: Kaylee, Wash
Rating: G
Spoilers: None
Word count: 408
Summary: When the crew goes out on a mission, those left behind have to entertain themselves somehow. Pre-Serenity Pilot.
Author's notes: A little ficlet written for bringthehappy. The prompt was 'Kaylee and Wash, puzzle'.

( And that suited them just fine. )

Stolen from someone on the tonypepper comm. I thought it might help get my creative juices flowing and it did. When you have 4 and a half minutes to write a fic, your internal editor just shuts off.

The Meme:

1. Pick a character, pairing, or fandom you like.
2. Turn on your music player and put it on random/shuffle.
3. Write a drabble related to each song that plays. You only have the time frame of the song to finish the drabble; you start when the song starts, and stop when it’s over. No lingering afterwards!
4. Do ten of these, then post them.

Confessions: A couple of times I had to take a bit longer than the song to finish my thought, otherwise the story wouldn’t make sense. I also edited afterwards for clarity and to add the Chinese in where I thought I needed it. And I skipped songs that didn’t fit the fandom at all or which were in foreign languages.

I chose Firefly as my fandom. Various characters, POVs and eras. Spoilers for the movie. Also, my shuffle is apparently a Carbon Leaf fan.
