''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4099993/1/Forward Forward]'' is a [[
Notable for strong characterization, believable character development, and a wide, overarching plot arc. General consensus among the reviewers has that the story captures the ''Firefly'' essence very well, with many of the reviewers comparing the writing favorably to [[Joss Whedon]]'s own.
Line 144:
* [[Does This Remind You of Anything]]: There's a scene at the end of "Charity" showing River {{spoiler|lying curled up in bed next to Katie.}} Its written like a mother holding a sleeping child, which becomes increasingly disturbing when one considers that {{spoiler|Katie has essentially mindraped River into forcibly becoming a maternal/protector figure.}}
** Later on, when {{spoiler|River tries to rebel against Katie and attack her.}} The resulting scene where {{spoiler|Katie mentally crushes River's mind}} is written like a rape scene, which [[Mind Rape|is entirely appropriate.]]
* [[
* [[Driven to Suicide]]: Quite a lot of the Academy's test subjects end up killing themselves, or at least trying to. {{spoiler|River attempted to do so when she finally decided [[Despair Event Horizon|Simon was never going to come for her]], but was [[Interrupted Suicide|stopped by the Academy guards]].}}
* [[Driving Question]]: Central to the "Charity" episode, which asks why the mercenaries are attacking an otherwise unremarkable village.
