The best thing that ever happened was definitely during “The Message”. I think for some reason it wasn’t on the gag reel. It was possibly the best piece of acting I’ve ever seen, which is the three-sixty [360 degree camera rotation] that Tim [as director] did while everyone was listening to the farewell message from Tracey [played by Jonathon Woodward]. And Nathan is standing with Zoe, looking kind of stricken - this is his old friend - and the camera pans around to Kaylee - and Nathan’s sitting next to Kaylee, looking kind of stricken in another way. And he managed to duck under the camera and get to every single member of the cast and just look really sad [laughs]. And some of them just could not keep it together and some of them did. But I’ve got to tell you - it’s hard to describe. And then when it finally panned down to the body in the coffin, Nathan was lying in [Woodward’s] arms, looking stricken. It was unbelievable - not only hilarious, but technically proficient. He really put some thought into it. But that’s Nathan.

One of the funniest things ever.
This may be my favorite Zoe/Wash moment.
Except all the Zoe/Wash moments are my favorite.
Urge to rewatch Firefly: rising.
(I will need to do research for the Firefly/DA2 AU once Amaranthine is done…)
Whup, somebody’s more genre savvy than her husband…
That’s because he gets too easily distracted by his dinosaurs.
Summary: What if Sherlock was never real? What if he has always been a figurement of John Watson’s traumatized mind? A cure to ease John’s loneliness after the war.
I promised you I’d do a trailer to this amazing story/concept/idea and BAM! here it is…
