The littlest Jaylee fan...

OMG, I swear, I had nothing to do with this. It wasn't my doing.

My nephews were over at my house and were mighty bored, they've been bugging me to see 'Serenity', but as they're 7 and 9 I've been telling them no. But I told them they could watch Firefly if they wanted. They agreed.

I started with the 'Train Job', 'cause I figure, it has trains, bar fights, big ugly men with tattoos getting kicked into turbine engines, what could go wrong?

Kyle, 9, loved the barfight. "This is a dirty fight! They're throwing dirt at each other! And kicking shins!". He also thinks that Inara is "a very beautiful lady".

Liam, 7, was much more enamoured with Kaylee. He thinks she's pretty.

They liked it, Kyle especially fell in love with Jayne and couldn't stop laughing at doped up Jayne "wha? I was aimin' for his head!". So I thought, maybe, Jaynestown, 'cause more drinking, fighting, a statue, etc...

Anyways, Liam, who in 'The Train Job' saw Kaylee bicker with Jayne, then run to him when he was shot and hover over him in the med bay, and then watched her tease him over the statue and sit next to him and joke with him at the bar... he got mighty confused when Jayne went upstairs with that other woman and Kaylee sat with Simon.

He was very upset. Awww.

Heee! My seven year old nephew is a Jaylee fan. (I'm so proud). I swear, again, it wasn't my doing.

Another amusing fact... Kyle, who had started up the chant of "Kill him! Kill him!" when Stitch and Jayne were fighting, was highly offended when the little boy handed Jayne back his knife and Jayne snatched it. "He shouldn't have snatched it, that was rude!". So, in the 9 yr old brain, killing is perfectly acceptible, but snatching is not.

Okay then.
