I don't dislike Charlotte so much as I find her cold and distant - maybe it's her upbringing, I don't know. For me the freight people landed into three groups: those that I loved right off the bat and love even more now (Daniel, Frank & *sobs* dear, departed Gault) - those I didn't take to but am now kinda intrigued with (Miles & Charlotte) - and the one I mistrusted from first sight and ended up hating maybe more than the Murdering Rat Bastard (who finally died in the explosion of the freighter) Keamy. Man, that guy was bad to the bone!
Sorry! All's to say that I like this ficlet very much. You've got a good feel for Charlotte - tough to do when we really haven't seen much of her other than as background and Miss Snark. As others have already said, that last line is killer - and I hope very far from the truth! *please let the raft have been caught in the fringes of the island relocation program*
