Summary: She knew a woman needed to look her best.
Painting Peace
Inara smoothed her brush along Serenity’s hull, carefully keeping within the border of the English letters she’d outlined earlier.
Living inside a spaceship, she hadn’t spent much time contemplating the outside of it before. The metal was warm from the sun, pitted and marked even after it had been washed. Her brush made a soft shushing sound, that began to settle something in Inara’s soul.
She might no longer be a Companion, but she still had her training. She knew a woman - human or spaceship - needed to look her best.
Inara dipped her brush again and continued painting, at peace.
