01263 | Woodsong is one of my favorite Firefly slash authors, because of the way she explores the relationship, as well as her deep understanding of the characters. All of her character voices are spot-on, and her knowledge of the 'verse would do any browncoat proud. I truly recommend reading all of her fic. |

01264 | This is one of the classic Mal/Simon stories; it's darker than many, powerful but with a happy ending. |

01265 | Though the pairing is Simon/Jayne, this fic explores the relationships between all of the crew, especially between Jayne and Mal. This is also one of the few S/J fics where Simon is actually in the driver's seat much of the time - most S/J seems to put him in the sub position, but anyone who's seen Trash knows just how wrong that actually is. |

01266 | This is hands down my favorite M/S series, due to the exploration of the characters. The chapters swing back and forth between their POVs, and emungere's writing is truly powerful. Read all her other fic too, you won't be disappointed. |

01267 | This was one of the first slash fics I ever read - and it's pure schmoop. Romantic and mushy, just like most of this author's work, which is a good foil sometimes for all the smut. |

01268 | This was written while Firefly was still on the air, and takes place before and after the episode Ariel - but since Trash wasn't aired at the time, certain things hadn't yet been brought to Simon's attention. Most of this series is preslash, and told from Jayne's POV, but it also explores Mal and Jayne's relationship post-Ariel. |

01269 | Before I started writing Firefly fic myself, I posted a plot bunny on the LJ site dedicated to this pairing, and about a month later this fic was posted in response. It's powerful, and the writing is sharp-edged and spare, with strong imagery. This is one of my alltime favorite stories in this pairing, and unfortunately it's the only Firefly fic this author has written. |

01271 | I really like this series because it's pretty sweet and schmoopy, as well as having some great smut. And I'm all about the schmoop, really. Follow the links at the top for the rest of the series. |

01272 | I love this fic because it is very funny, but in a subtle way, like Joss would have written it if he wrote slash. It is also very IC; told entirely from Mal's POV, it explores his ambivalence about Simon and River's presence on his ship. |
