Rain, PG, a River-centric drabble
River watched the rain, staring in fascination as the water ran down the windscreen of "Serenity". With one finger she traced the path of a raindrop.
"You'll make fingerprints all over there," Mal commented. River glanced over her shoulder and smiled. "What's your obsession with the rain? You grew up planet-side, you've seen precipitation before."
River loved when he used long words that no-one would suspect he knew. She tried to explain it to him, though she wasn't sure she knew the right words.
"It was different rain. This rain is wilder, freer, cleaner. This planet isn't a core planet and the rain isn't core planet rain." She stood. "Can I go outside? My parents didn't let me get wet, but sometimes Simon and I would sneak out."
He nodded, not really understanding but not disregarding her desire, and River dashed past him.
"Simon," she called. "Come on." And in moments she was outside, barefoot, skirts twirling as she spun in the rain, face upheld to the heavens, being washed clean physically and spiritually by the cleansing rain.
Punishment, PG-13, a Spike/Dru drabble
Spike bit back a curse. The steamer left in half an hour and they'd be stuck here for another week before the next night cruise they could take.
"Dru," he begged. "Come on."
"Not without Miss Edith!"
They were packed and ready to go except for the missing doll. Spike sighed and looked under all of the furniture again. The things he did for love. But he knew Dru would no more leave without Miss Edith than he would without her.
"Look, here she is, Bad Miss Edith," Dru trilled as she came into the room, clutching the offending doll by its hair.
"Come on, then," Spike said. He watched Dru stuff the doll into the nearest trunk and close the lid. "We have to get going"
He held out her cloak and she slipped into it, Spike licking teasingly at her neck as she did so.
"Naughty boy," Dru said in delight. "I'll have to hand out lots of punishments on the boat."
Spike couldn't wait.
