See, I appreciated it, but I clearly didn't appreciate it, you know? So much distraction, with Naked!Mal and such.
I hear you, sister.
Zoe: Is there any way I'm gonna get out of this with honor and dignity? Wash: You're pretty much down to ritual suicide, lambie-toes.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I thought Simon was one of the characters who benefited most from actually viewing the episodes in order. I find his little mini-arc kind of touching.
Plus, he's very pretty.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
I love Simon. I admit I got all chocked up when he said "light it" at the end of "Safe," holding River in his arms. I didn't actually mind getting to see "Safe" out of order and ahead of the schedule. Even though it's not a particularly witty episode, it got me invested in the plight of Simon and River thoroughly.

Yep, and funnily enough, he was totally there too.
Heh. I told my wife the same thing. Let's face it, he was either gay or that was a very disturbing (in a hodgeberry way) relationship with his sister. Or maybe both.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Considering that they've apparently been playing romantic leads for years, I'm going for both.

Huh. You know, I didn't really notice how pretty to look at Simon is. I may have to rewatch. You know, for research purposes.
I noticed, but may have to rewatch anyway. You know, for solidarity. No other reason.
I love my captain, but really, I think Simon most benefits from shirtlessness. We may all have to watch both again to make sure, though.

The way you guys sacrifice yourselves for the sake of research is just inspiring. I shall have to join in the sacrifice and do some more re-viewing, just in case my appreciation has been insufficient (wouldn't have thought it possible).
