It’s always the small stuff.

Mal’s sure of it as he shoves Simon onto the ground and fires in the general direction the bolts of energy whizzing around them are coming from. The small stuff, the paltry little things one could smuggle in a purse, are always worth the most. You could steal a gorram longhorn and not get more than a few gunshots, but a shiny metal coffer the size of your palm? Kiss your existence goodbye, you’ll probably get the whole Federal Marine Corps coming after you. The only exception to the rule of course is that girl sized box he picked up two years ago. That was a might unusual, life changing one could say. Still he adheres to the smaller the package, the more troublesome. So he’s not entirely surprised when Simon crawls across the white linoleum, types a code into a pad, unlocks a safe and pulls a black case out that looks like a fancy shoebox.

Still...

“ That’s it?” He balks, one side of his mouth curls up, as if to snarl at it in detest for being so troublesome. It’s been a long day, a really long day. The kind of day where nothing goes right and if you don’t get shot, you reward yourself with a fifth of something fancy.

“Yep.” Simon’s doe eyed, like if you shined a light on him you could easy hit the boy with an object and end his ass. Mal would’ve given him a gun, but the last time that happened it didn’t end well for Jayne’s foot.

“You sure?!” Suddenly the med ship rocks, like a giant child
