Title: Leave of Absence, part 2/4
Author: zoewarren
Rating: PG
Characters: Inara, Mal, Zoe, crew
Pairing: Mal/Inara
Spoilers/Timeline: post-BDM (spoilers for the movie)
Sequel To: Leave of Absence
Disclaimer: Joss is boss, I'm just playing
Author's Note:
A friend of mine once said she could never 'ship Mal/Inara because they were too different and too inflexible, and that it would always be doomed so long as neither of them was willing to change. I seem to have taken that as a dare.
As mentioned above, this is a sequel to Leave of Absence and picks up immediately where that one left off, so if you haven't read it yet (or even if you haven't read it recently) I recommend you start there, or this will make no sense at all. For the perceptive among you who have noticed it's been almost exactly a year since I posted part one, please don't worry. Parts three and four are within two scenes of being done, so they should be out within the next couple of days. Some encouraging comments could potentially shorten that, though. *g*
Now, I've kept you waiting long enough. So, here's part two.
