Let's shine a light on Nandi... (Thanks people! YOU RULE!)

[wytchcroft]

 

So...

...i'm trying to clear my head and start from scratch about Nandi and see if the story i have in mind is right for her. Sometimes they don't fit the characters i hope they will - or that inspire them in the first place... Inara's done that to me - and Book - and River too.

So... my primary question is about time;
How much time between the Guild and the palais de tin foil in Heart of Gold.

I'm interested in where the girls came from - were they on the planet already - or did they come with Nandi? (yeah yeah, that's the ears on my plot bunny sticking up)...

The Dulcimer story;
I don't buy it, too neat and too funny, so what incident(s) caused Nandi to detach from the life of a Companion?

And lastly of course Nandi herself.
Who is she, what is her character and when did it chrystalize into the Nandi of HOG (Oh and there's the bunny's whiskers!)?

So - a lot of questions... I'd like to thrash em out on someone's lj age but shoot, everyone's disappeared!

Advice would be shiny!

Discussion would be the thing that comes after shiny!!:)

oh before HOG yes, but how long before - is fan fic heaven!

also, 'knowing' Inara was ordered - well, how does she know? Isn't she actually asking Inara the question - in the typical roundabout way of Companions??? i think that one is open for speculation. Did someone TELL Nandi after the event? Was Inara there for the shunning??? hmmm...

Hmmm... She could be, that's a definte possibility. Or she could have contact with some other Guild members - depending on whether it was just Inara ordered to shun her, or all of the Guild ;o)

Was Inara there for the shunning???

Oooh, gosh! What a fic *that* would be!! I never really thought of there being an acutal 'shunning' as an 'event'... Wow, that could be *very* interesting... hmmm...
