It's amazing how fast time goes on the boat, with a toddler who's into everything, and a crew who spoils her to no end. Maya can get away with practically anything, and does more often than not. But she's a sweet baby, loving on everyone, happy all the time, and already very happy to pretend to pilot the ship next to Wash on the bridge. She mimics ( Read more... ) -
AU part 4646415
Six weeks of sleeping with the pilot isn't turning out to be half bad. Because as it so happens, he's better in bed than she ever would have thought, and attentive too. He talks so much outside of bed, she didn't know what to expect. But she's been surprised - better than surprised really. Happy...is a word she hasn't used to describe herself in a ( Read more... ) -
AU - post The Message
After everything is said and done, after Tracy is left with his parents and the crew is back on Serenity, Zoe stands in the cargo bay for a second. Wash goes to get them off the icy rock, Jayne and Mal go wash blood, and River, Kaylee, and Inara go off together. Shepherd, Zoe assumes, has gone off somewhere to pray. Which leaves her standing alone ( Read more... ) -
An AU
In the weeks after Wash's death, Zoe's never felt so exhausted or emotionally drained. She's tired, she's grieving in her own way. But she works to get Serenity up and flying again. There are nights she can't sleep in their bed - just hers now, and she finds herself wandering to the cockpit. She sits in his chair, wrapped in that sweater he liked ( Read more... ) -

psl part 10
The past five months has been good, money wise. Mal got shot by a woman named Patience, but not bad. And Zoe'd managed to grab the coin, so it hadn't been a total loss. They all even managed to get planet side once or twice over night. They didn't always have a ton of food, but they were doing alright ( Read more... ) -

Miserable really isn't the word for how everyone is, yet. It's not as bad as it could be, and they've had plenty of stops. It's just that there's no food being traded. So they're down to the tasteless protein that isn't even chicken or beef, just a block of something tasteless ( Read more... ) -
PSL part 8
Months and jobs tend to go by smoothly for the next few months. Everyone's feeling pretty light, no one's had to shoot anyone, and they've had a good spread in between takes. Zoe's noticed that even Jayne seems less inclined to pull out his guns. Marriage seems to suit both she and Wash, her smile coming quicker and easier these days, finding that ( Read more... ) -
PSL part 6
After her two days with Wash, pain killers, and plenty of rest, Zoe's feeling good. Amazing, really. She's going to marry that pilot, she's going to be happy, and she's still a little awed that she's opened herself up this much, that she's moving on from refusing to get attached. Wash gets all of the credit, for not giving up and not trying to ( Read more... )
