cantonheroine for the wonderful banner and icon.

Dear Ellen, I guess you know Jayne showed those tests to Simon? It took him awhile but he has a hard time asking for help I know and Simon and him still dont get along that well though I think theyre a bit better since our hard times. I hope you dont mind that I wrote all the instructions? Simon is real clever and all but sometimes he forgets that not everyone understands medical stuff and the words he uses I didnt understand a half of them and I was standing right next to him. Isnt it great were coming to see you and Mattie Im glad the Captain decided on that though I wish it were sooner I know youre very worried. My girl is doing good Ive made some new parts from scrap and River says she feels easier to fly. I keep talking to Zoe when noone else is around shes looking a little better but Im still worrying bout her she don’t seem to care too much what happens to her at the moment. We cant lose anyone else itd hurt too much. Everyone else is doing ok Simon is busy as always River loves flying so much the Captain and Nara are still dancing but not so much as before and Jayne is well hes back to lifting weights and doing pull-ups and such and eating. The Captain says he needs more jobs just to feed Jayne and keep me in engine parts he pretends to be mean sometimes it stops folks from getting too close. Were on our way to the first job now so that means were on our way to your home Im so looking forward to meeting you and Mattie take care of yourselves Love Kaylee
Dear Kaylee, Jayne says you lost your grandma Im sorry girl no wonder you sounded a bit down. If you want to talk remember I like to listen. I didn’t mind you writing the instructions you made it so clear and easy that I had no problems at all. Youre doing good with Zoe these things take time thank you for always telling me about Jayne Love Ellen
Dear Ellen, I couldn’t talk bout grandma before I got sorta choked up even when writing. She was my Mama’s Ma and was always good to me I spent lots of time with her when I was small and she told me all about the Black shed lived on a ship you see and only settled down cause she met my grandpa and he was a farmer. I think it was her stories that made me want to fly so much. I think losing her on top of the others just got to me for awhile I felt like I was losing all my family at once. Having the beagles on board helped me a bit did Jayne tell you bout them? They were so cute and loving I was sad when they went River kept one in secret so its still here it’s a girl and shes called it Fifi aint that cute? Its lovely to see River cuddling her shes the first pet she ever had isnt that amazing? Out place was always overrun with pets what about you? Zoe nearly got herself killed on the last job Jayne was so angry and I dont think the Captain knows what to do I think you should know that it was your boy that saved the both of them he shot it out with the bad guys and dragged both our people back to the ship he got a bullet nick but is fine. I went and talked to Zoe bout my grandma I know it aint the same as losing your husband but I thought it would help. I think it did she talked more bout Wash not just stories but bout how shes missing him I don’t think I ever heard her talk so much before of personal things. Did I do right do you think? We got another job coming up for a friend of Nara’s and I gotta get the shuttle ready don’t worry well be seeing you and Mattie soon Love Kaylee
Dear Kaylee, Your grandma sounds like a wonderful woman and you do too I really admire all of you out there in the Black trying to make something of your lives. We had pets too imagine not having any Jayne loves cats there were always kittens everywhere. You did good with Zoe shes lucky to have a friend like you so am I Love Ellen
Dear Ellen, Im glad you think I done right Zoe seems a bit better and Im feeling more level too. My Mama sent a box grandma left for me full of her things that I remember from long ago it makes me feel closer to home or something. The job went well Jayne says thats cause Nara planned it not the Captain and we each got a fair amount of coin that made everybody happy. River and me went clothes shopping together and had a lovely time Fifi came too and we bought her some dog toys and such Captain says were babying her but I think its good to have plain simple fun sometimes. Did I tell you Nara aint being a Companion no more? She still works for the Guild but as a Mediator I think she and the Captain will get together now though I dont think he should ever have questioned her job. My grandma said you should never try and change the folks you love or they turn into folks you dont know I hope that wont happen here but dont think it will Naras so sensible and the Captain dont want to lose her. Weve had another job since Naras everything went smooth and noone got hurt I bought this and thought youd like it. I’ve been working on the shuttles today I like all of my girls parts to be working properly and tomorrow its the mules turn well be using soon in the next job. After that were flying straight to see you I know Jayne is longing to be there and so am I so we can meet face to face. Be careful till then Love Kaylee

Whee! Another note!
Date: 2007-01-05 04:26 pm (UTC)LOL! I can just imagine him saying something like this, too. At first I thought you'd just posted the other post twice, but then I looked and let out a little *squee* when I saw that it was in fact a Corresponding Note! You're just spoling us :)
