Challenge: Round #5, Challenge #2--What was the most uncertain period of your life? The most certain?
Word Count: 321
Disclaimer: Don't own it, never did, never will--just having fun playing.
Warnings: Slight spoilers for "Out of Gas," "Jaynestown," and the BDM!
I was never more certain of anythin' as I was the day the cap'n offered me a job on Serenity. Daddy taught me young 'bout engines and stuff, said I had a gift for knowin' what they needed. Always dreamed o' leavin' home to fly in the black, but never had any luck with any o' the other ships came into our little port. All them other captains'd take one look at me and laugh, tellin' me to run on back home to momma. Not Cap'n Reynolds, though. He listened to what I told him, an' offered me the job without thinkin' twice when I fixed our girl. Was so excited just had to run home an' tell Daddy and Momma. I ain't regretted leavin' home for one minute, neither. This here's where I belong.
Uncertainty, though, that started the day I met Dr. Simon Tam. Oh, I probably shouldn't give his full name. You just forget I said that, okay? Just think of him as Simon, that's what I do. He's so shuài. And smart! Knows so many things about Earth-that-was! His stories are always so…educational. He's fun when he's drunk, too. Lots o' people get mean after a drink or two, but not Simon. He starts tellin' funny stories. Loosens up, too. Loses all his…properness. Is that a word? Anyway, took me forever to get him to open up to me when he weren't drunk. We'd get close, then somethin' 'd happen, he'd say or do somethin', an' we'd back to square one. He blew so hot and cold, got me to wonderin' if maybe he weren't sly and just didn't wan' t'say so--case he hurt my feelin's, you know? We finally got together, while back, an' the sex ain't been nothin' but good. Sometimes think he's bored other times, though. Not really there when we're talkin', you know what I mean? Makes me uncertain all over again.
