[The castle really couldn't have designed a better hell for Washington than being attached to this Spartan for a week.  Every day, the same damn routine.

4:15 AM, up and getting ready for Kat's usual run.  This time, Wash wasn't feeling very cooperative, grumbling the entire time.  He's sick of following her damn schedule and he's going to put a

[Well, shit.]

The hell are you two doing?

[encryptedlock]

[He's getting a bad feeling about this.]

...You didn't lock him up somewhere, did you? Cause he hates that.

[inmylight_comdr]

[Yeah those feelings are probably justified.]

It was either that or bash his head in.

[encryptedlock]

Christ.

Then no, he's not going to calm down until you let him out.

[inmylight_comdr]

I let him out, it's the same shit all over again. I'm done putting up with it.

[encryptedlock]

Tell him if he behaves, I'll buy him enough booze to permanently damage his liver.

[inmylight_comdr]

[...]

You've got to be kidding me. Is he really so simple to be bought off by alcohol? [What is it with you guys and the stuff, anyway?]

[encryptedlock]

No. But it'll help him forget for a while, and he'll like that.

[inmylight_comdr]

[You can't see it but she's shaking her head.] I'll let him know.

Doubt it'll make a difference.

[York just sighs again. Jeez, you guys.]

[inmylight_comdr]

Those Dead Zone outposts are looking very inviting right now.

[You love being the responstabul adult, right York?]

York

[after this starts]

York....*zen-me le...

It's like they're outta their heads... what's even happenin'?

*What's going on?

Long story short? Those two are oil and water. If they can't act like fucking adults around each other, one of them is going to snap.

Probably Wash.

York

[onemanshort]

But-

[oh god...that did not sound good]

They ain't gonna actually-

I mean, you all work t'gether. [why does it sound like they're trying to kill each other, York?]

Kaylee

[encryptedlock]

[No, no it does not sound good. And York sounds frustrated but also tired.]

We work together at home against a common threat that isn't here, sure. But even then, Wash isn't exactly a team player. He's most comfortable alone and he hates authority because it's screwed him over so many times. But Noble-Two's not only worked on teams her entire life, she also outranks him.

I work well with both of them because I compromise and I don't mind Wash taking the lead.

York

[onemanshort]

Oh, *zheng-qi de gou-shi dui...

[it's not that she doesn't understand the dynamic. Working with Jayne for two years is plenty of experience for dealing with this pair. But it's all kinds of ridiculous]

Well, it ain't gonna do them no good, killin' each other. [she's still worried, but it's more of the irritated kind of worried, now] They'd just come right back, anyway.

*what a steaming crap pile
