NANOMOOSE


Last year sometime, my brother picked up the box-set DVDs of Firefly. I watched them. I thought they were good. In fact, I thought they were really good. I started saying the word 'shiny' more often than I really should, and scribbled fanart and quotes and incredibly short fanfiction in the margins of my notebooks. I ranted about the cancelation in my blog and carried a fuzzy feeling in my heart because I could still watch the DVDs when I got home.

A few months later I was looking up info about Firefly and realised there was going to be a movie. I 'yay'ed.

I saw the movie.

Now, I wonder how I could have totally missed this community. I have my favourite episodes, quotes, characters and all that kind of stuff, I refer to the crew as the BDH, I cried for most of the end of Serenity, I got all the series related in-jokes in the out-takes for the movie, Joss Whedon is on my list of acredited Gods, I randomly exclaim the words "Fruity Oaty Bars" when I can't think of anything else to say, and I spend a lot of time pointing at people and saying "You will watch Firefly. Yooooouuu will watch Fiiiireflyyyyy" while waving the DVDs at them.

I think it's time for me to shelve my lurkdom, don that hideously expensive brown leather coat and join the rest of you Independents in singing the praises of Firely to the tune of The Hero of Canton.

So.

How 'bout that local sports team?

Well, you won't have to don that ridiculously expensive Browncoat ( unless you really want to buy the ridiculously expensive, but oh so nice one online) we are gonna give you one!

Well, a virtual one....

*hands NanoMoose a browncoat- hope it fits*

Welcome home! Sounds like you been an Independent for a spell, we'll just have to put you to work on the lines immediately.

Seriously, I hope you love it here as much as I do, and I think you will. There are lots of good folks here, so post often and we're glad you joined us!

Aaaah, virtual things always smell better anyway. And yes, I would like to buy that ridiculously expensive brown coat, but this one fits just fine. It's just plain...spiffy being here. Or should I say 'shiny'?

Yub, yub.

Either is fine, we're nifty and spiffy and shiny by turns. You'll find us a pretty easy going bunch and you'll fit right in.

Glad the 'coat fit!

Someone'll come along and offer food and drink too, just wait.

That's a nice feeling. I'd forgotten how good it felt talking with real, live forum posters...

Food, food is nice. I'd better do some posting elsewhere before I'm accused of lurking again.

Yub, yub.

Hi Moose!

Well, there was a nice dinner planned, but we ran into a little problem with a distraction and most of it wound up on the ceiling... Sorry! We're sending one of the new recruits to clean it up presently.

But we've got some Jasmine rice and veggies and some fried bananas for desert. Pull up a chair and dig in! There's a placesetting just for you.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I must go find a nice, safe, quiet, hidden compartment to hide in before FollowMal finds me. Something about the Cap'n and pictures of him nekkid. Check the other threads for the story as I think I hear FollowMal's steps on the catw...


BYE!

My God, you're all freaks!

But you're exceptionally genial freaks, which is nice. And you share my obsessions. Which I think makes me a freak too. Wheee! I belong somewhere!

Fine!

You just don't leave stuff that tasty sitting around any old where.

No Ice Planets for you, Nanomoose!

thanks, Nanomoose..

* says back over her shoulder as she walks off*

you seem to have gotten sorta swept up in all that... well, ice planets ARE problematic so... stick with the bananas!


tommorow'll be a better day, Nanomoose... she'll be just fine by then.

I cry now.

Okay, fine, I'll just have to go out and get some strawberries instead. And then I'll sit down and eat them and WON'T SHARE.

Speaking of sharing, can I make a suggestion that doesn't involve violence? Or is this the wrong crowd? Why doesn't FollowMal copy the pictures? Then we can all have tastiness.

Yub, yub.

Best not be passing them around though, I ain't got a mind to see too much or our good Cap'n.

Oh, and I decided this seemed like a decent 'nough topic to announce my belated arrival to the board. However, I have not been an unknowing Browncoat for quite as long. I have only been addicted since about August or so when I finally went out and bought my own set of DVDs. One of the downsides of this being that I saw the BDM before I saw one entire episode of Firefly. But this has in no way lessened my love for My Master's beautiful creation.

Oh, and I might need a slightly larger coat, I'm a little larger than you're average misbehaver. You know, just so that you know because I'm a big fan of being comfortable as well.

Well, seeing as how there was an explosion in the kitchen earlier... Diversionary tactics, my good man! Dinner was a casualty. (Cap'n wouldn't volunteer to get nekkid.)

My fancible meal had to be sacrificed. One of the new guys shoulda cleaned it up by now, so it should be safe to grab a chair and sit a spell without the danger of something gooey falling from above.

Luckily, Cap'n sprung for some Ice Planets and there's probably some Jasmine rice and vegetables left, if the other new recruits haven't decimated them yet.

FollowMal will be here right shortly to issue a new Browncoat to you. I best not be seen near her bunk or her supply closet. (emphasis on SEEN)

Welcome to the crew Thingy!
