Firefly - indeed! A likely story, Nate. Look, I know it's embarrasing to have your manhood at all compromised in public by letting it be known that you've read and enjoyed
Vera by Villiers de L'Isle-Adam and secretly read other such works on your Kindle regularly. But let's be honest and own up to it, shall we? We're all grown ups here. Or at least you folks are!
