Jaylee ficlet

[bookaddict43]

Thanks to comment_fic and host prehistoric_sea I actually wrote something and posted it. It's been a long, long time.

The theme today was angst and the prompt was my own *grins*. Jayne/Your choice - he ain't ever gonna be Simon. There's no porn and I don't know how good it is - but I wrote something! *dances*.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

He ain't ever gonna be Simon and most times he's fine with that. Who'd want to be a pansy-ass doctor who can't even shoot straight and is so stiff he most times can't even take a joke?

Nope - he don't want to be Simon.

Except for one thing. Simon has Kaylee...has her dangling on a string. Attached to him and not even wanting to be let go.

Even now, with the gorramn doctor gone - he just picked up and left one day with little sis; another one attached to him with a string - Kaylee's still mourning him. Wanting and wishing for him; still dangling and not being Kaylee at all.

But Jayne's watching and waiting, and one day that string will break and he can step in and get attached to Kaylee his ownself. Except it'll be him stuck to her more than likely. And he won't be linked with some piddling little string; it'll be with the biggest, toughest chain there is.

Ha! That last line is perfect. Ego blended with jealousy. Love it.

Thank you! The last line was the first I thought of - glad you liked it :D

Oh, damn, that hurts!
Great little bit, I can feel Jayne's pain at this. Shiny!

Poor Jayne! I hope he gets noticed soon. Thanks for commenting :)

It's sweet to see you writing Jaylee again. I know myself how hard it can be to climb back into the saddle after a long break.

I like how you've captured Jayne's willingness to bide his time - a skill important in any hunter.

Thanks for the support MGG! I had fun writing this too - I hope it means some more will be forthcoming.

Aw poor Kaylee, I love your Jayne. He's just so very Jayne, if that makes sense at all. Chains and Jayne are good :)
