Inara.

It's the distance within the closeness. She loves the crew and has a great deal of tenderness for the world at large, she's introverted with an adventurous side, but at the same time she needs that space to retreat and is secretive about her choices.

Next up Mal. Because he's a vast sea of everything, lots of different value systems and codes of behavior that contradict each other.

I would have to say Book. I don't have any direct ex-military experience but I have been lead in a new direction after finding serenity in my life. Yeah, so Book it is.

That being said, I saw the movie first so I didn't really know anything about him. Now that I've seen the whole series, if I were Joss, I wouldn't have killed him in the movie.

Mal.

I always have a contingency plan, but I'm no coward when I'm cornered. I always try to make my position appear weaker than it actually is, but there's always a steel support underneath.
I'm usually the first one into any situation, even when I'm not supposed to be leading.
I don't see any dishonor in living to fight another day. Good with guns, but no experience with grenades, or funny hats, so I'm not Jayne.

I'm surprised that so many people identify with the doctor. He always seemed like a prig. Girls like him, but I wouldnt want to be him.

Yep. Have to go with the Cap'n. Mal's just as cunning in his own way.

WASH, definitely. He's a jokester and always has a clever remark ready for any situation. He has a beautiful wife who's more badass than he is, he plays with toys, and is always ready to look on the logical and/or bright side of any situation.

I think I swallowed a bug...

I've got this thing about john lennon specs and full-length button-suit jackets. I'm interested in torture methods, like to employ light-relief blundering henchmen, and I've got a real penchant for comedy german accents.

We're both into pretentious existential claptrap and there's nothing I enjoy more than trying out some new pain device while speaking infuriatingly slowly and finishing every sentence with "yes?"

It's really odd how the parallels pile up.

There's more to Simon than his arrogance, it's the other things I identify with, although I guess I can be a little arrogant at times. I've got a little bit of the others in me as well. I'd probably order them as Simon, Jayne, Kaylee, Wash, Mal, Zoe, Book.

That's just my gut reaction to the guy.
Besides! He's my competition for Kaylee! Why should i like him?

Seriously though, the cast wouldn't be complete without Simon. Simon's endearingly awkward with girls, and has great compassion, and intelligence to boot. Still he's just too stuffy. (He's supposed to be, i know)

So, you know, if it's going to be Mal or Simon.

I gotta follow Mal.

Wash. I'm all about the snark. Also the sex with warior women. Mostly the snark though.

Hey River! Nice to find you in this thread. No doubt in my mind regarding that, either. :)

I have the most in common with River but I don't really relate to her. Probably because she's usually either raving mad or beating people up, both of which are fun to watch but not things I do. Not often anyway. I hope we get to see a slightly saner River someday!

I'd say I relate to Mal more. He manages to live his own way in a limiting world.
