"Hey, Mal!" Wash turned in his seat, "Wave for you. Looks like RobotBoy is back around."
"Was he smiling?" Zoe's voice was somewhat less confused sounding than her expression looked. "I didn't now he knew how to do that."
"Some folks think the same of you, Zoe." Mal squinted at the wave as it played back. "Wave him and let him know we'll see him there."
"Sir? Are you out of your mind?" Zoe's voice, calm and respectful, betrayed nothing of the thoughts behinds her words, but Wash quickly echoed them,
"Didn't he..."
Mal's voice cut over Wash's protests. "... He backed us up when we needed it. Sure, we've had problems, but 'case you two didn't notice, we're a little low on crew at the moment. And the boy does have his usefulness."
Mal's tone said end of discussion, and Zoe stared pointedly over his head while Wash suddenly found the console very interesting.
"Wash? Get us to Beaumonde. I want this job over and done with."

Zoe's stern, unsmiling face appears on the Cortex screen, and 13 smiles sunnily.
"Well, that was quick, Mrs. Washburne. What's the scoop, Zo?"
13 could hear her clench her fists as she replied, "Captain says we'll meet with you at Beaumonde."
"SWELL!" 13 screams erratically, then resumes his smile. "I'll see you guys then!"

"He seemed awfully chipper." replied Wash as he punched in the coordinates for Beaumonde. Turning to his wife, Wash continued "Wasn't he chipper dear?"
Zoe gave her husband a look which made Wash promptly say "Ok returning my attention to the console now. Boy these dials are awful dial-y."

Leaving? How could they leave? What would they do? Where would they go? Beaumonde was far from the best of planets to conceal a pair of highly wanted fugitives, and it wasn't as if River was Miss Inconspicuous!
Leaving? What the hell was wrong with Simon? Didn't he know that the sky was the safest place to hide? Of all the people in the 'verse, I would know. I should tell them.
But I can't. Why not, you ask? Well, my dearest, you might have noticed in this sprawl of journal scrawlings that I'm in a very awkward situation. My daughter (probably, there's a chance she isn't. I'm not taking that chance, anyway. She's my blood, as far as I'm concerned.) cannot ever know that I'm her father.
But then again, why couldn't she? I think of everyone on the ship, she would handle it the best. Despite the family aura I'm getting from Serenity, she still has noone but that thrice-damned Simon, who plugs her with meds constantly. If she had a father, wouldn't that soothe?
Alright, probably wouldn't work out too well, although it would stop the captain's ceaseless questioning. He probably thinks I'm some sort of Alliance agent, a member of the 'secret police.' 'O f course, Mr. Reynolds, that's exactly what I am. Although that means I could've killed all of you and taken her whenever I wished.'
Idiot.

Wash left the bridge just as Wolf took over. He walked through the galley and stopped. It wasn't the same after those who left. He looked over to the corner where the coffee table was. Normally that's where Pain and Ertia could be found making out when they weren't in his bunk. They weren't there of course and hadn't been for quite some time.
"Hey Wash what's with the long face?" asked Guy who was sitting at the table, cleaning a gun.
"Oh it's uh nothing. I was just looking for people to play some hoopball." replied Wash.
"Hell count me in. A game of hoopball sounds better than just sittin' and mopin' about." replied Guy.
Guy finished cleaning his gun and put it away. Then he and Wash went looking for people to play some hoopball.

"We're in." Kaylee said when Wash asked if she and John would like to play.
"Kaylee, you know I suck at hoopball." John protested.
"Ahh don't give a space monkey's rear end we need some fun"
"Fine"

That's quite all right Wolf. 
In the Cargo Bay
A game of hoopball was underway. The teams were Wash, Guy, Wolf and Kaylee, against John, Zoe, Nico and Jayne. There wasn't many people watching the game since most of them were gone, but Oath and Mal made an effort to watch the game.
Jayne dodged a block by Guy and passed the ball to Zoe. Zoe maneuvered past Wash as he tried to block her.
"One to nothin'! Y'all ain't givin' up so easy are you?" said Zoe to her husband's team as she scored a point.
"Surrender? Now? I think you got a couple of screws loose my dear." replied Wash as he intercepted a pass from John.
Wash moved quick on his feet and threw the ball to Guy. Guy dodged Jayne and passed the ball to Kaylee, who made a basket after dodging John's attempt to block her.
She turned to John and said, smiling "Come on John is that the best ya got?"
Nico, Guy, and everyone else for that matter. This sure would go quicker if you people were here.
