His first mate was wearing an eye patch. An eye patch . Worse, there were colourful trinkets littering the galley table—green frothing drinks, festive handfuls of candy, and twisted snarled things . With little triangular eyes that glowed.
Ai ya. Not none of it made any sense.
“Kaylee, what… what are they, exactly?”
Kaylee’s beam actually made him step backwards a few inches. “Jack-o-lanterns! Ain’t they just the cutest things ever?”
Her hair was done up in ringlets and she was wearing a polka-dotted dress, apparently under some sort of false impression that it made her look like a pirate. Looked more like she was about to go up into the mountains and take up yodeling, but he didn’t quite have the heart to tell her so.
Mal studied the horribly deformed faces. “Yeah. Cute. Listen, they ain’t gonna catch fire or nothing, are they?”
“Aww, Cap’n, don’t you worry,” Kaylee said. “You should try’n enjoy yourself. ‘Bout time we all relaxed some, after…”
Kaylee faltered, trailing off into silence.
Mal sighed. Hell, anything that made Zoe smile couldn’t be bad. Only reason he let Kaylee get away with this fèi huà Halloween shindig.
“Anyway, you gotta dress up!” Kaylee said. “All of us gotta, or won’t be the same!”
“I don’t dress up.”
“Sure ya’ do, Cap’n. You do all the time—‘cause you like ‘em dresses—” Kaylee’s eyes brightened—”Simon!”
What? Mal mouthed, before turning and getting an eyeful of the doctor. He yelped.
Simon’s once-smooth chin was covered in a clump of thick hair—thick, curly brown hair.
“I don’t—” Simon fidgeted with the hair, pressing one finger into it experimentally. It

Inara frowned. “I never said he was pompous.”
“It was implied.”<
LOL! Loved it!
>“Yeah, well,” Mal said. “I don’t count.”
>“Why not?”
>“Cause it’s my rule,” Mal said. “And I’m Captain.”
Love this.
I love Mal and Inara having a conversation over a sleeping Simon.
>“Could,” Mal said. “You planning on taking advantage of me when we get there?”
>Inara eyed him up and down. Her tongue flicked out to wet her lips. “I might be.”
Hah! Excellent end! I like that Inara tells him she isn't so good with the damseling.
>She eyed him for a moment, before leaning in close to him, her voice dropping to a husky tone, “And as you know, the princess is always ravished by the pirates’ Captain.”
>His blood. Suddenly going places that weren’t his head.
laugh! Ahh, you write Mal and Inara especially well.
Lovely piece!
And I feel sorry for Simon in all this. He gets suckered into the whole deal by Kaylee and River and dresses up as a pirate, ends up getting part of his face torn off while trying to remove his fake beard and then sleeps through the rest of the party while Kaylee's probably raring to get "ravished"...;)
