You always wash yourself thoroughly before and after seeing each client. You run a cloth over your skin until it glows, then watch as the lukewarm water runs in rivulets down your curves before pooling between your crossed legs. Doubtless Mal views this as necessary cleansing after a, ‘hard day’s whoring,’ but you’re not so puritanical. You enjoy bathing as a ritual - a time to be alone and clear your mind as each drop of water cleans your body.
It is only occasionally that you don’t wash before or after sex. These are the nights Kaylee comes to you. Kaylee, with her tousled hair and faded dungarees, is always messier than a client would dare be. The tangy scent of Serenity’s engine is her own and often oil will still cling to her fingertips. This oil is as black as ink and smudges up you when she runs her hands over your body. She leaves indelible ink stains on the insides of your thighs.
You don’t want to erase Kaylee from your body and mind like just another client. You like the inky fingerprints she leaves. You will never acknowledge it (not even to yourself) but those small smudges of possession actually make you feel less owned.
