"Candy" by snarkandtea (PG)
Fandom: FIREFLY
Pairing: Gen; though if you look, you see Kaylee/Simon
Author on LJ: Unknown
Author Website: Unknown
Why this must be read:This fic captures the warm spirit of Kaylee perfectly. It also provides bright little glimpses into one of the quieter moments in the life of the crew. The writer is very true to the humor and characters of the series as well. I urge you all to rea and enjoy.
Kaylee eats the grape ones first. She loves the slightly chewy, slightly crunchy texture of that first bite, the way the sugar tingles all over her tongue in sweet crystals. She'd separated the colors, and as she eats them she rearranges the remaining ones in bright designs on the chill white table.
She's taking her time with purple-number-seven when Wash wanders in, looking for a packet of tissues.
"Hiding your goodies from the rest of the crew, I see," he says, sternly. "You know, my mother always told me people who don't share their candy with the ship's pilot go to a special hell..."
It's not hard to draw him into the game, and soon he's constructed a fearsome stegosaurus on the table with the little moon-shaped tablets. Kaylee giggles and eats as Wash narrates the sugary dino's tale - but before it's done she's snarfed down the last purples, obliterating Sir Steg's spiky tail.
