Am I too Subtle???

I'm starting to wonder...
I post these little fics, and to me, they make perfect sense, follow a progression that, while not spelled out letter for letter, seem pretty clear. But am I too subtle? Do I make my reader's work too hard? Expect too much??

This last drabble I posted... about fireflies... I posted it over on FFF.net in addition to here and in FF_Friday... and it's specifically the comments I received on FFF.net that make me ask this question, because.... nobody seemed to understand the end... The first comment was something along the lines of "My God! Didn't Inara like *anything* about her life on Serenity??" and the other two comments echoed that, saying that, contrary to what I had written, they believed Inara did like her life on Serenity.... and I was astounded.... Because that is *NOT* what I was saying at all... but, I guess I was being too vague...

I figure it might be that I am so Inara-centric in my thinking, that her thoughts and reactions seem so obvious to me (not to sound arrogant)that I felt I didn't need to write a play by play description of what went on... I don't know...

It has left me feeling rather upset and depressed, even though the above "My God..." comment ended by saying it was really well written... and the comments I've recieved here in LJ are all very positive and people seemed to get what I was doing, I think, though I don't know for sure now...

And now, I have to answer the second question in big_damn_quests in Inara's voice, and how am I supposed to do that when I'm second guessing myself??

Shit.
