You'd think, after being here almost two years, you'd know what happened.

[sisterskeeper]

It's all right, mei-mei. The Captain's only going to fetch the ship. After all, with Jayne for company, he'll want to return if only to leave him here.

[damageyourcalm]

The sand stopped falling and I can't hear it now.

[sisterskeeper]

He won't be gone for long. Then you'll ... hear the sand again.

[damageyourcalm]

rewind. Go back to the beginning and start agan.

[sisterskeeper]

We might leave?

[damageyourcalm]

*head shaking* The sand is still falling.

[sisterskeeper]

It's been falling a long time for me.

[damageyourcalm]

There's more to fall. Gravity is inevitable on the ground.

[sisterskeeper]

I won't leave without you.

[damageyourcalm]

*pause, head tilted back*

No. You won't.

[sisterskeeper]

And don't ever doubt it.

[damageyourcalm]

Can't. It's written in the grains of sand.

[sisterskeeper]

Will he make it back?
