Title: Dancer
Author: Redrikki
Rating: PG
Word Count: 100
Prompt: 049, Firefly: Ballet
Characters: Simon, River
River’s heavy boots clomped on the rough planks of the dance floor and her bright skirt flashed and swirled about her as the folksong swung her from partner to partner. Her face was filled with wild joy, but Simon could remember her in soft pink tutus and delicate point shoes. At ten, she’d been graceful and refined in her transition from French-named pose to French-named pose. Their current life of sad little border planets and petty crime was a far cry from ballet on Osiris. Simon was wondering how much farther they could fall when someone grabbed him from behind.
