AN: Here it is, the last chapter of "Pretty ... pretty". The story however will continue in an other story, I haven't yet decided completely on the name yet, but trust me that you will get to see a lot more of the twins. Keep commenting, this will help me to keep writing. Whether it's this particular story or other ones.

*** Home for Christmas ***
This wasn't how he had imagined it to be.
That was what was on Simons mind as he was laying on the bed, Kaylee sprawled on top of him, exhausted and sweaty. Just like him. He wanted their first time after the twins had been born to be special. Not that he complained about the events, it had definatly been amazing sex. And he loved feeling her body close to his in the afterglow. Welcoming the feeling of being upmost happy and satisfied, as he was running his hands through Kaylee's thick, soft hair, listening to her steady breathing.
The twins were closing in on turning three months now. Thinking about that it was amazing that they hadn't done this sooner. But then again there had been so many things going on that they never had a long enough alone moment to take advantage of it. From work-situations, all-nighters with crying and the exhaustion that just led to naps when they finally had a moment alone. If there was one thing he was sure of when it came to the twins was that he could never get himself to do anything that improper when being in the same room as them. It didn't matter if they were asleep or awake, it felt too weird. Luckily this was a properness that Kaylee actually agreed with.
So it
Keep up the great storywriting and can't wait for a sequel and side stories for this

As for future ideas, maybe you could do something similar to "Splainy Unkie Jayne" with the two bugging the hell out of Jayne or another crew member. Maybe we could see them in five years or so playing with Wash and Zoe's kid and having their own little adventures on the ship.
Or, if you want to keep the elder Tams in the picture, how about in 15 or 18 years or so, the twins decide to head out on their own and find their grandparents and discover part of their heritage.
And BTW, you are NOT one to talk about keeping people waiting, missy. ;)

Great characterizations. Great job of revisiting plot points from the show from a fresh perspective.
You also did a good job of keeping plot threads throughout the entire story.
I also love how you are so responsive to constructive criticism and suggestions from feedback.
You may want to do a little more proofreading; nothing too glaring, but I'm an English major by trade and noticed some typos and misspelled words.
I'd love to see this continued! More of Regan's reaction and if she ever gets to meet the babies!
