It's late ship's night, and Simon can't sleep.
He's talked the offer over with Kaylee again, after Dr. Stantz confirmed that he could help. They've agreed that she'll talk to Mal, and he'll talk to River. Soon; it'll have to be soon.
He hasn't talked to her yet about his conversation with his father. He's going to have to, he knows, but she's got enough to worry about right now.
And somewhere in the back of his mind is a further worry, about how long it's been since he's heard from Jordie. The brief textwave from his aunt said he was fine, but....
It's late ship's night, and he can't sleep, and there's tea in the kitchen.
