For the next few days, every conversation I began with my best friend started not with "hi" but with "Wash is dead." He would then say, "I know."
Okay, we're still doing that.
Atherton: Half the men in this room wish you were on their arm, tonight. Inara: Only half. I must be losing my indefinable allure.

If I only had a brain...
He's Schrodinger's Wash: dead to us, but not to the world at large. Or maybe he's Relativity Wash: dead or not-dead depending on the position of the observer.

Heh, or Joss has alternate footage of the entire last half hour of the movie and someone else buys the farm in Sept.

If it makes anyone feel better, none of this'll happen for five hundred years or so, so if we're long-lived enough and can plan ahead very, very well we can avert this disaster.

Yes, because we know from experience how well trying to avert prophecies in something written by Joss Whedon goes....

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."
Wash is not dead. Wash will not be dead until Sept 30

Stoopid job.

All I can say is if I end up stuck with a bratty medically-impossible miracle child because someone else had to monkey around with a prophecy, there will be Hell. To. Pay.
