oswulfWhat happens to a Browncoat deferred?
Does it babble about raisins and rotten meat? Probably not.
I'm not sure how legitimate my claim to the title of "Browncoat" can really be when I wasn't even aware of Firefly prior to Serenity, when it still took literally years before I actually went back and watched the series, when for all the delight that series may have sparked, the quest to track down any accompanying comics and even RPGs to catch any extra hint of the series' exquisite flavor... I haven't launched myself into any groups, haven't authored any fanfiction, haven't really taken beyond that. I did photocopy from the RPG several pages of profanities in Chinese, but have not gone on to use this list in any capacity. There are so many who have proven true devotion, is it really fair for me to don the metaphorical duster of the title "Browncoat"?
And in any case... how ridiculous is my lead-in question when all Browncoats, really, are deferred. Or as the old meme says--on its' background of Jubal Early looking out at the computer user--Firefly cancelled after one season, Jersey Shore still on the air, that seem right to you?
