welcome aboard my firefly - please wander through the blogs/rooms

Quote:
The picaresque ( Spanish: "picaresca", from "pícaro", for "rogue" or "rascal" ) is a popular subgenre of prose fiction which is usually satirical and depicts in realistic and often humorous detail the adventures of a roguish hero of low social class who lives by his or her wits in a corrupt society.

Mal’s eyebrows signalled their enquiry – even before he spoke.
“Well Mr Feng, then perhaps you’d do me the kindness of explaining how you crash a low flying fast burning piece of merry gosa - smack into the ground here – and you aint dead?” Mal’s voice was deliberately bland.
“Oh? well – it’s a swamp hereabouts.”
“Right enough. A swamp. That it is. And I just know you’re gonna fill me in on how you crash a low flying fast burning piece of metal into a gas spewing, toxic and highly flammable swamp, without exploding?”

Jefferson Feng’s smile was as broad as his arms were wide.
“Ha! Well Sir, I’ve a large heart and full... of the love of the wide and bonny ’verse
and just too plain kind intentioned to die so easy –
or so dumb.”
“I see.” said Mal.

“Also..." Feng continued "I had him .”
Feng gestured with a hankerchief towards the lowering figure of Jayne.
“Well now Mal and that is the truth of it. I saw the ship crash – ‘tweren’t hard on figuring no survivors, lots of scav.”
Mal nodded. “You got a story there too Jayne? – How you came to wade through a poisonous swamp full of gas and into and out of this man’s fiery abode.?”
Feng chuckled. “No doubt Captain, like me, this man too has a generous big heart.”
“Got big lungs .” Said Jayne simply.
