Ooh, shiny! I appreciated the detailed interaction between Mal and the Scoobies. I was skeptical of the premise at first, but you pulled it off. Mad props for saving Anya, and writing Andrew as both funny and annoying. Nice work, overall.
I loved this story, especially the way Mal bonded with Chao-Ahn. Leave it to Mal to bring a gun to a sword fight. This story was just shiny. If you ever get the chance to upload more stories I would love to read them, hopefully they will be set in the Firefly verse also.

How was your trip. A wonderful sentence that encapsulates River's way of speaking and thinking, even though this was the first time she appeared in this story. Chaja

In the last part of the last chapter you mention this being your first crossover fic...I wouldn't haven been able to tell...Anyway I really enjoyed this. I'm a romance nut myself but this was pretty darn good. Yoou made good choices of the dialouge you "borrowed" and I think you wrote Mal rather well.
Cheers MJ

The introduction of Mal into the Buffyverse was seamless and very entertaining. I loved his insight into the group dynamic and the influence he had on the outcome of the fight. Kudos for saving Anya. Mal's bond with Chao-Ahn was an especially nice touch. His speculation about River fitting in with the slayers piqued my curiosity about how true that might be. This was an intriguing premise and you realized it well.

Than you for sharing this, I really enjoyed it. :-D
Just one small bit of constructive criticism: you might want to find a good beta reader. We all make those itsy mistakes, and a good beta reader will be able to catch and correct them.

Thanks for reading and reviewing! Glad you enjoyed.
Good advise on the beta. This one was a rush job, I admit. Of course, I always think I catch them all...never do. *sighs*
Very intriguing! First time I've seen a Serenity character dropped into Sunnydale, rather than Scoobies winding up 500 years in the future. Nice work. (And thanks for giving Chao-Ahn someone to talk to!)
Comments from author:
I'm sure someone else has plopped Mal or someone into Sunnydale, but I haven't found it, either. That's one of the reasons I wrote this. If I kept him here long enough, he would probably grow to understand and accept this world, but I just wanted it to be temporary. Just a moment in time in Mal.

Awesome story. Please do write more. Loved the Mal POV to bits. He cares so much about his girls, and it was nice to see that in your story.
Comments from author:
I kinda wanted to do some more Xander POV on this, but I thought that you could get the gist of what he was thinking by his reactions to Mal. I actually do love writing Xander. It was fun getting into Mal's head here.
