I'm personally a Simon/Kaylee shipper (mostly 'cause I'm lazy and have little imagination), but I believe that Jaylee should get bonus points, based soley on its name. (Brilliant! It meshes so perfectly. A little too perfectly...) Much better than Silee (What's up with that?)

But I'm glad Leiasky started this thread, 'cause I too have never quite understood where Jaylee is coming from (I find it a mite unsettling, myself). So I'm glad that I've heard (ie. read) the thoughts behind it. I don't necessarily agree with these thoughts, but I will fight to the death for your rights to think them.

Yay, tolerance.

UPDATE: Ok, read some of the fanfic. I'm converted. I'm a Jaylee shipper

Simon/Kaylee is too safe/obvious - Jaylee just fits better. Kaylee deserves someone who will protect her, and she would bring out Jayne's already hinted at softer side.

Yup, what Jacqui said.

Jacqui, I have to hand it to you. Before your post, I had never understood what anyone would see in a Jaylee relationship. Now I'm itching to go home and watch my DVDs again!

I did the same thing last night. Watched the first disc but I just absolutely don't see it. Not a damn thing that would hint at Kaylee having the least bit of anything but a little sister relationship with Jayne. And his protectiveness toward her just doesn't seem like anything more than an older brother protecting a little sister.

Jacqui is the ONLY Jaylee writer that has ever been able to come CLOSE to convincing me that a K/J relationship might work (but even then I still cringe at the pairing - not the writing, which is excellent). If people are interested in that pairing, I would recomend people read her stuff.

...Unfilmed script? Where can I find it?? Also, where is the interview with Adam Baldwin that has all his musings on Jayne?

How could I have missed these things? *shakes head in woe*

>and jayne obviously has a crush on kaylee"

Yet he doesn't say this was in any way reciprocated.

Jayne is more suited for the whores he seeks out regularly rather than sweet, little Kaylee. :)

It's called 'Dead or Alive' and I think you can find it here on these forums.
