Dear Ma, The moonbrain is crazy weird who knows what she can do she always has a knowing look in her eyes. Are you sure youre doing awright I sent a little coin with this and something for Mattie. Were trying to sell the gun we stole last job its a real beauty a Lassiter Ill send more then Love Jayne

Dear Jayne Thanks for the extra coin Mattie liked the puzzle says it’s a real hard one it took him more than a week to figure out. I used the coin to buy new glass for the windows were fine. Hows your crewmates have you called Simon and River by name yet? Id love to see a capture of them Love your mother

Dear Ma Everyone else calls the fugies by name theyre fine don’t need me chiming in. Sides I don’t like the doc any better than I did he makes Kaylee act all squirley. Havent sold the gun yet its real hot property Mals going to try the next skyplex were at Im glad Mattie liked the puzzle Love Jayne

Dear Jayne I hope you are well and that you get this soon in your travels. Thank you for the coin you forwarded it has helped as Mattie is still sick with the damp lung. I made you the enclosed to keep you warm in your travels Love your mother

Dear Ma, the hat is real cunning and keeps my ears warm. We still didn’t sell the gun but in the same post Mal and Zoë got a dead guy who werent dead then he got dead. We were chased by feds too the head one didn’t like my hat but I do. I got another puzzle for Mattie Love Jayne

Dear Jayne You confused me a dead guy who werent dead how can that be and why did Mal and Zoe get him? Getting chased by feds aint good what happened are you awright? Boy you worry me some. Mattie wont be doing the puzzle for awhile hes real weak Im glad you like your hat Love your mother

Dear Ma The guy took some sorta drug that made him look dead he wanted Mal and Zoes help they were in the war together. The feds were chasing him not us and Shepherd talked them out of doing anything to us were fine. How come Matties so weak I thought he was fine Love Jayne

Dear Jayne Mattie aint ever going to be fine hell have good days but the bad days are getting more he cant even sit up in bed lately. What did the not dead guy want and am I right thinking hes now dead you never could tell a story right boy. The Shepherd sounds real smart Love your mother

Dear Ma The guy his name was Tracey got his innards took out and smuggled other innards inside the feds were bad guys and wanted them. Shepherd and Mal had a plan Tracey didn’t like it and shot Wash and grabbed Kaylee. The Captain shot him for that and serves him right Love Jayne

Dear Jayne Whoever heard of such a thing playing with your innards don’t you ever think of it. You have some exciting times there but worrying too I can tell. Are Wash and Kaylee awright and your other crew? I won the bottling competition at the fair and got a job bottling stuff for Widow Davis Love your mother

Dear Ma Glad you won the prize do you have to work for that stuck up bitch do you need more money? Washs hand was shot but the doc fixed it good he still has all the feeling so can still fly Kaylee werent hurt but was real scared shes not good with guns and such Love Jayne

Dear Jayne Im just saving your coin is all I don’t mind the bottling this way Im home more for Mattie don’t forget. You got to forget what the Widow did to you it was twenty years ago now you never did let go of things. Sounds like Simons real talented are you calling him by name yet? Love your mother

Dear Ma I know you like being home and I aint never forgetting what that woman did. We did a job at a whorehouse and I got paid otherways than with coin but I traded some of my gatherings and heres some after all. The doc helped a baby come and I dont like him Love Jayne

Dear Jayne What sort of job did you do was it fighting? You took your pay otherways what did I tell you about that boy? Sexin is all well and good but you need more than that everyone does. I know you don’t like Simon but it sounds like hes handy to have around try to get on boy Love your mother

Dear Ma The big man in town wanted the kid and the whores didnt want to give it up the one in charge was a friend of Naras. Captain always admires folks what stand up for themselves so he wanted to help that’s why we was there. I told you before just sexin is fine I dont like complications Love Jayne

Dear Jayne Its good you all helped everyone has a right to live their own lives and a child belongs with those who will love it. Your Captain sounds like a good man Im glad youre flying with him and the others. Complications are worth it sometimes you know Love your mother

Dear Ma Hows Mattie you havent said are you still doing that bottling job? I guess Mal is a good guy seems to me him and Nara are at outs with each other lots he don’t like her job and makes cracks. That’s the sorta worry Im talking about I dont need that just relief now and then Love Jayne

Dear Jayne without some problems life would be boring I think I know you don’t like to care about folks but sometimes you need to in order to live life proper. You got two pretty girls on board remember. Matties been sitting out on the porch lately I used your last coin to buy a rolling chair Love your mother

Dear Ma How come Mattie needs a chair? Sorry Im a bit late writing we had some problems here a bounty hunter came for the moonbrain the doc got shot protecting her but she didn’t need it being a mind reader and all. Love Jayne

Dear Jayne Mind readers arent real dont be silly are River and Simon awright what about the rest of the crew? Simon is strong looking after his sister like that. Mattie needs a chair cause hes too weak to walk most days and is real worried bout it. Love your mother

Dear Ma The Captain, Zoe and the Shepherd say shes a reader they should know. The girl was real clever tricking the bounty hunter fella her and Mal sent him into space. Nara got hurt, the Shepherd too, Zoe had to get the bullet out of the doc I slept through everything Love Jayne

Dear Jayne It aint your fault these things happen.at least everyone is alive though you didn’t mention Kaylee or Wash. They are fine arent they? If your Captain says its so its so I just never heard of such a thing – Readers whod have thought. How are the hurt ones? Love your mother

Dear Ma Nara had her lip split and the Shepherd his head bashed. Doc will take a few weeks to get better so Zoe says she and Wash were locked in their bunk so they werent hurt. The moonbrains fine. Kaylee got tied up maybe threatened she aint said nothing and its worrying folks. Hows Mattie? Love Jayne

Great as always! Loved this bit: you never could tell a story right boy. Ain't it the truth! I do hope you plan to continue these, even though you've reached the end of the series.

Hee Jayne and his deficient story-telling! I can just see it...

I enjoyed writing these so much I do plan to continue. I'm just trying to figure out which way to jump. Toward the BDM or AU that is the question. To that end I created a poll - my very first! http://bookaddict43.livejournal.com/52142.html

*squee* I always love these!

<< Captain always admires folks what stand up for themselves so he wanted to help that’s why we was there. >>

I like that he understands that - and respects it some, from the tone of it. Love how ma keeps pushing for him to find a woman and stick with her ;-)

We were chased by feds too the head one didn’t like my hat but I do.

LOL! I loved that little moment in the show and I was hoping you'd address it and you did!!! *loffs on you*

Please continue this! And make Mattie get better, please? I don't want him to die!

I adore this series! Very cute, sweet, and funny. It's a nice, refreshingly light-hearted take on their adventures. I can't wait to read the next installment. (There will be a next installment, right?) :)

I love the way you have Jayne's Ma keep on bugging him about settling down and about being nicer to River and Simon. And you captured Jayne's attitude to getting sexed perfectly. No complications. I love this little exchange:

I told you before just sexin is fine I dont like complications....

Complications are worth it sometimes you know Love your mother

I guess Mal ... and Nara are at outs with each other lots he don’t like her job and makes cracks. That’s the sorta worry Im talking about I dont need that just relief now and then Love Jayne

Yep Jayne's practical. But you can be too practical after all. His Ma hit the nail on the head with her advice. But will he take it??

Excellent again my dear!

Ma Cobb knows her son so well, I loved this:
Whoever heard of such a thing playing with your innards don’t you ever think of it. Of course she'd know that for just a split second there, he was thinking about it!

Love how you show that Jayne really does notice things on the ship and how worried he is over his mother and Mattie. I can't wait to read more (are you going to incorporate the comic book info?).

That's Jayne - always thinking about the coin. But Ma put a stop to that.

I'm not sure where to go next. I've got ideas for either AU of comics and BDM but I've only read the comic once and don't know if I am familiar enough with it. Check out my poll and tell me what you think? http://bookaddict43.livejournal.com/52142.html

This has been a delightful and fresh take on our man and his ma.

"Boy you worry me some" And with good reason.

Four stars, BA!

Since you started these, I have wanted to read the letter about that hat.

::dances::

I feel like I have closure despite the face that I have another batch to read.

Hell, *I'm* worried on Mattie! :0(

Complications are worth it sometimes you know

A lesson most of the ship could use. I *heart* Ma Cobb.

It never occured to me that Wash's injury could have stopped his flying. Jayne taught me summtin'!
