That's got to be SOP, right? right?
It has to be. Simon's got it safely tucked away for a rainy day.
Nothin'. I just wanted you to face me so she could get behind ya.

Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who matter don't mind and those who mind don't matter.

I think that by that time in the future, they should be able to spin up some DNA from a Wash tissue or blood sample (which Simon would probably have on ice), and then put that in some sort of future faux sperm for impregnation purposes. I mean, we're not that far off from being able to do that with our current technology.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
Regardless of the genetics possibilities, the fact that any such child could only be raised by Zoe rather than Zoe and Wash would be heartbreaking.

Yeah, but he'd have a cool and cantankerous Uncle Mal. It wouldn't be a bad ship to grow up on between Kaylee and Inara and Simon and River.

If I only had a brain...
I wouldn't trust River with my baby. When she flips out, she flips out big-time. There was no reason for her to knife Jayne.

I'm not sure how Flipppy Outtie we're supposed to see River after the movie. In any event, I was only putting her in a willing playmate mode on things like jacks, not an unsupervised babysitter.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
There's always a reason to knife Jayne. Sometimes, though, there are also reasons not to.

I may have to seize the cat.
I'm going to be seeing it with a couple people who haven't seen it on Friday (as well as a ton of people who have) and I'm actually feeling kind of guilty in a bizarre way because I know what a severe gut punch Wash's death was to me (and it still makes me sad to think about) and for whatever reason I feel like I'm inflicting that same pain on my friends and that it might be kinder to leave them in the TV-verse where Wash (and Book) still lives.
I feel this completely.
Saw the movie (kind of, had my eyes closed for much of it, because migraine) for the second time. Music was different. I miss Greg Edmondson. An excellent action movie. I was too busy being in awe of the sheer existence of the movie to appreciate it the first time, but really. Just incredible action.

There was no reason for her to knife Jayne.
Besides seeing the Blue Sun logo on his shirt, you mean?
Not that it was a good reason, but it was a reason in her cut-up brain.
