* ''Comments'': This is seven hundred extremely powerful words. River's thoughts during her torture and confinement are scrambled and nonsensical, but just conscious enough to be chilling. I didn't know whether to want more or want less (simply because it was so poignant it's scary) when I finished i.

* ''Synopsis'': Two beautifully written continuation fics centering around the lives of the offspring of the current Serenity crew. The first, ''Take Me Where I Cannot Stand'' focuses on Wash and Zoey's daughter, Louisa Agnes Serenity Washburne. ''Destinty'' continues her story while zooming out to include the rest of Serenity kids.

''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/5502176/1/Freedom-to-the-Free Freedom To The Free]]'' by Dreolin
* Recommended by: {{Tropers/chicagomel}}
* ''Status'': Complete. The author mentions a sequel, but it doesn't appear to have happened; the fic does work on its own though.
* ''Synopsis'': Mal unknowingly sets ''Serenity'' down in an area frequented by slavers, and Wash, River, Simon and Kylee are taken. As Mal searches for a way to rescue them, they all try to stay sane, especially Simon, who endures worse than the others trying to protect them and being forced to do things he considers against his oath.
* ''Comments'': Dark in places and does deal with things like slavery, violence, physical and sexual abuse, but it's well written and hits in the feels at times. The author avoids a lot of frequent traps involving these types of fics.

''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/17013540/chapters/39997527 The Good Doctor]]'' by Mikanis
* Recommended by Hekateras
* ''Status'': Complete
* ''Pairings'': Mal/Simon
* ''Synopsis'': Set post-series and before or ignoring ''Serenity''. An initial need for the doctor to find grounding and stress relief culminates in a relationship between him and Mal, but then Plot happens and part of the crew must spend a lengthy amount of time on what is effectively a slave plantation while undercover on a job. Things don't go smooth, but when do they ever?
* ''Comments'': Early on, it's a satisfying enough shippy fic with Mal and Simon exploring their relationship in a refreshingly mature way, but truly starts to shine when the plot picks up. The two are forced to witness horrors that tax their relationship and threaten to bring out the worst in the two of them, with a pivotal turning point when Mal outright asks Simon to violate his Hippocratic Oath. Notable for its charmingly in-character writing of Simon, with all his strengths and vulnerabilities, and just plain good drama.

* Counter-opinion: the writing in this really could be better. There are a lot of SPAG issues and the prose is lackluster (and also way, ''way'' over-uses the word "iffin'"), which means there's very little to distract the reader from how Riddick is either a CanonSue, a BoringInvincibleHero, or both.

Added DiffLines:

* ''Pairings'': Simon/Jayne
* ''Synopsis'': He never did like Simon Tam. (post-movie)
* ''Comments'': Jayne asks Simon to teach him how to do "doctorin'". It goes pretty well! This fic is funny and in-character and I love it.

Added DiffLines:

* ''Pairings'': mostly gen, with Mal/Inarra and Wash/Zoe
* ''Synopsis'': Money's tight, jobs are scarce, the crew's at each others' throats, and Kaylee gets kidnapped.
* ''Comments'': An original-flavour style episode of Firefly with great crew banter and characterization.
