Well, I guess you all have figured out that I'm a newbie, and are probably rolling your eyes at this thread already. Hell, I wouldn't blame you one bit if you did. But I'm a big fan of Mal & Zoe as a couple, and seeing how I seem to be the only one, I was wondering if there were more fans of this 'ship out here who could lead me to some decent fics and such based on them? I tried searching myself but after wading through the endless rayne or simon/kaylee things on here I've been coming up nearly empty. So can someone help me out?

Because they just fit together better than her and Wash ever could.....and ofcourse there's the BDM to consider.

While I don't share your enthusiasm for Mal/Zoe, I can understand your frustration with a lack of non-mainstream fics. I am a Mal/River and Mal/Kaylee shipper and I have a hard time finding fics as well. Sorry I wasn't any help, but I just wanted to let you know that I feel your pain, lol. Oh and I just like to say for my own peace of mind that Wash is still a great guy!

Lol, a very interesting and amusing idea.

I wouldn't have thought Zoe would fall for Mal - but then again I wouldn't have thought she'd fall for Wash either (or anyone for that matter)

I don't know enough about her character to be honest.

As for Mal, he obviously has a thing for Inara, and my understanding of his character is that he leans towards the 'soft and gentle' variety of womenfolk, as opposed to the kick-ass warrior woman sort (think Saffron as well, when she was still Saffron - so make that soft, gentle and articulate).

I'd say Mal and Zoe are, indeed, a likely couple. At least Wash thought so:

"No. What this marriage needs is one less husband."

But, realistically (other than in Wash' head), a real couple? Nah; they're war buddies. And Zoe trusts and relies on Mal, and especially his opinion, a great deal; like a husband... but without the romance.

Yeah Wash is a great guy, and I do like him. But whenever I watch Firefly and there's some scene with Zoe and Mal running in with guns blazing, I just can't help thinking that the two of them are made for each other. And like mentioned, it is really frustrating to enjoy something so much and then seem to be on an endless search for it.

As for Mal and Inara, sure they like each other, but I can't really picture them ever getting together, at least not for long. For one thing they can't help arguing when ever they come near each other, also I think Mal would have too hard a time getting past the fact that she was a Companion for so long and that she seems to embody "high class" while he doesn't.

You might want to try at livejournal.com. I know I've read some Mal/Zoe fic, just can't remember where. If you search firefly or serenity as an interest there, you'll find lots of communities. Good luck!

Hmm, thanks for the idea! I've read a few here, but they were all from the same author, and there's about 5 on fanfiction.net. Hopefully a livejournal search will prove more fruitful.

As Wash said "most people don't get me & Zoe".

But I do.

A strong woman needs a man with a sense of humor...a soft place to land after a hard day of kicking ass and taking names.

Zoe and Mal would never work. They are too much a like.
