River Tam as in Summer Glau in the TV series Firefly and the movie Serenity. Her brother gives up his life as a prominent Doctor to rescue her from the Alliance. Their parents or at least there father is only interested in their success and not as persons. This is how I think they saw each other when she was born and he found the family he didn't have otherwise. Kaylee is a female mechanic with a gift for fixing things like spaceship engines and is so cheerful her captains say "some times you just want to smack her", but not really.

The Minor is about the minor characters into which I have injected myself as a miner who begins his story on and within the safety of an asteroid where he lives. I imagine the view from the asteroid the loneliness of being millions of miles from anyone and a hope and power that lies beneath the surface of whom he appears to be. There is a Firefly Wiki about the series created by Joss Whedon.
