Of course I’m Mal Reynolds. I already know Serenity is my best fit. But Wash is probably closer to who I really am.

You are Malcolm Reynolds (Captain)

Honest and a defender of the innocent. You sometimes make mistakes in judgment but you are generally good and would protect your crew from harm. |

And what is it with me being rated as Captain all the time? IRL the crew would mutiny in about three minutes.

Yeah, right there with ya Phil. I’m usually Mal, or Wash.
And being a good browncoat, you probably already know about the “Brownquotes” generator.

“IRL the crew would mutiny in about three minutes.”
I’d probably start a mutiny in about 90 seconds, Phil.

I came up as Mal too…sweet!
April 6th, 2007 at 7:09 am
I always wind up Zoe. Always. It makes me wonder a lot of things about myself, really. I never follow orders!
Still, she does have one of my favorite scenes in the whole show. (At the end of the one wher Mal and Wash get kidnapped by Scary German Guy, and she and Mal do the painfully awkward flirting. Classic!)
April 6th, 2007 at 7:11 am
Hmmm…is the ‘Verse ready for a female Mal? I’m not sure I have the legs for it, really. But the numbers don’t lie!! (80%, gorrammit!!)
April 6th, 2007 at 7:32 am
Since I have never seen the show and haven’t a clue about who is who (thus having no temptation to try to “be” one character or another), I’m probably the perfect “control” for this little bash. Anyhoo, for what it’s worth:
You are Derrial Book (Shepherd)

FYI, a “shepherd” is a kind of pastor/priest…

What question did you answer how to be 15% Reaver?

Dr. Simon Tam
April 6th, 2007 at 8:54 am
I’m Zoe! Cool, though I identify more with Kaylee or Dr. Samantha Carter on SG-1.
April 6th, 2007 at 9:13 am
Yet another Mal here.

I’m a big damn hero is what I am.
April 6th, 2007 at 9:39 am
I got Captain Reynolds 90% — but also 15% Reaver at the bottom of the list. (What question was it that gets those Reaver points?)
April 6th, 2007 at 10:11 am
BA,
It’s your modesty that makes you so heroic……….
April 6th, 2007 at 10:12 am
When I took this some days ago I came up 90% Kaylee Frye, 85% Malcolm Reynolds, then Zoe and River after that. We must all have a little Reaver in us.
April 6th, 2007 at 10:25 am
I’m Kaylee! and then 65% Captain????
Makes me feel a bit old; I remember watching the actress in “Flash Forward” when my daughter was young.
April 6th, 2007 at 10:33 am
There’s no question about beating up Pseudoscientists. That’d be a dead givaway.
It’s not too surprising there’s no Jaynes around here, though.
April 6th, 2007 at 11:28 am
I’m 80% Kaylee and 75% Wash… my two favorites.
Though… 30% Reaver. I think it’s because, while I answered definitely not to “are you a cannibal” I answered definitely yes to “are you crazy?” and only kinda no to “do you enjoy hurting people”.
I have the urge to watch the show again… it was so gorram awesome.
April 6th, 2007 at 11:45 am
I guess it’s Zoe for me. Does that mean I get the ship when we jettison BA? YAHOO!!
April 6th, 2007 at 11:58 am
This is why the squids are invading.
April 6th, 2007 at 1:33 pm
Phil!! Did you see? There are at least two purplebellies on here!!
April 6th, 2007 at 2:12 pm
Oh, Capain, my Captain!!
April 6th, 2007 at 2:53 pm
I got 15% Reaver too, I do eat hot dogs once in a while (when the wife is not looking), not all the meat is from animals in those.
April 6th, 2007 at 5:19 pm
Stowaway? River wasn’t a stowaway. If anything, she was cargo. Telepathic cargo.
April 7th, 2007 at 8:14 am
I came out as the Doc, with Capt Reynolds as a close second. Makes sense to me,,,
River was far, far more than mere cargo, a telepathic warrior of exceptional ability. My kinda woman,,,

You scored as Moya (Farscape).
You are surrounded by muppets. But that is okay because they are your friends and have shown many times that they can be trusted. Now if only you could stop being bothered about wormholes.

OMG, I’m Zoe. The problem with Firefly was that it aired on Fox. If Joss had spent more time talking about how great George Bush had been, the show might have been saved.
April 9th, 2007 at 10:19 pm
… Or ruined completely more like!
April 9th, 2007 at 10:26 pm
It was definitely an awesome show though and well worth saving. Although licking Bush’es boots the way those reject Reavers of Fox do is far too high price to pay for anything!
Ah, ‘Firefly’ : Great characters, great dialogue, great world creation only .. well, why _was_ just about every planet so much like the Wild West of North America circa 1880 … ?
Oh, if anyone cares, I got to be Mal too - with 0 % reaver & also 0 % a lot of others - after what seemed an awefully short quiz .. Maybe I missed some questions, somehow, might go back & try again.
April 9th, 2007 at 10:50 pm
Hmn … Went back & realised I had to scroll down. D’oh! (Maybe I’m Homer Simpson.) Thentried topost this &failed (ithink …)so am trying again.
Anyway, this time I was Mal Reynolds again but with a lot more of *all* the others too :
Malcolm Reynolds (Captain) = 80%
Derrial Book (Shepherd) = 75% (Hmm. Don’t believe in God, but do read the Bible explains that one I guess.)
Dr. Simon Tam (Ship Medic) = 70%
Zoe Washburne (Second-in-command) = 55%
Kaylee Frye (Ship Mechanic) = 50% (Seems overly high %~age to me!)
Jayne Cobb (Mercenary) = 45%
River (Stowaway) = 45%
A Reaver (Cannibal) = 40% (Ditto! Pretty sure I answered ‘No’ to ‘cannibal’ then again I did use maximum ‘yes’ for crazy!)
Alliance = 35%
Wash (Ship Pilot) = 25%
Inara Serra (Companion) = 20%
In case y’were curious …
April 10th, 2007 at 10:32 pm
