“River…?” Simon walked up behind his sister.

“Ssh!” she raised an imperious hand. “Relationship habits are fascinating.”

“What?” Simon asked, uncomprehending.

“Watch,” River pointed into the cargo bay where Kaylee was working under the mule, chattering away to an unseen assistant.

Kaylee’s hand emerged from the mule’s inner workings, waving in the air imperiously; and Jayne, his expression, a mixture of indulgence and longing, stepped from the shadows and handed her a spanner. The moment Kaylee popped her head out and smiled at him the mercenary’s face changed to its habitual teasing leer.

“Oh,” said Simon blankly.

“Fascinating,” said River.

Damn you woman, you tricked me into reading Jaylee!

Anyways, I love the image of Jayne standing there all vulnerable and exposed… At least that’s the picture I got. ; )

Ah ha! *rubs hands together* My evil plan comes to light :)

Jayne being exposed and vulnerable was just what I was aiming for! *bounces*
