River danced happily around the cargo bay as she sang.
“Tonight another tryst, to get a second kiss.”
Simon sat watching her from the catwalk and wondered what she was talking about as usual. He wasn’t aware that his sister had ever been kissed.
Just then Mal walked in looking for Simon. He paused mid-stride when he heard River’s chant.
Simon had heard his footsteps and turned to look at him. Seeing Mal holding an oily and bloody rag on his left hand, he quickly rushed to him. Lifting the rag, he quickly stated, “That’s going to require stitches, Captain.”
At Simon’s voice, River stopped her song and dance and turned to look up at the duo. Smiling broadly, she began a new chant.
“Knight in tarnished armor,
Found a princess in an unlikely form.
And now is her calm
in the center of her storm.”
Simon shot a baffled look at his sister before shooing the Captain toward the infirmary. Mal’s eyes had gotten wider and a guilty look flashed over his face. Luckily for him, Simon was more concerned with the current medical emergency of his hand than any nonsense his sister was chanting.
As they left the cargo bay, River went back to her original song but with a variation. Mal dropped his head when he heard the new words.
“Tonight another tryst, for more than just a kiss.”
