I do think that the pairing of Jayne and River would be quite an interesting match to see. Many people believe in the opposites attract theorem, and we've seen how caring and sensitive Jayne CAN be (case in point, while Simon opporates on Kaylee)
I mean yeah, she did cut on him, but it was just a little bit!
And i really want Simon and Kaylee to be together because, i'm a hopeless romantic and want to see them turn out for the best (of course, i may be just a little partial because i share names with her and Simon is really hott *whistles innocently*)

I go with one I proposed a while back:
Kaylee/Wash.
Think about this:
What if Wash thought Zoe was dead?
It's possible.. a deal goes bad, they have to make a run for it...Zoe doesn't make it to the ship in time and everyone thinks Zoe has been killed...flash forward, Kaylee (after realizing she and simon are NOT meant for each other) comforts Wash and something develops between them...then..a few months down the road...
BAM!
Zoe shows back up.

Sorry but i think that is a fairly bad idea, sounds very Soap Opera oriented. highly original, but i think it would take away from the integrity of the show

Ummm... just because she was with Bester (and who wouldn't want a better look at those bad *ss tattoos) doesn't mean she has an inordinate sexual appetite. I mean, she seems to be hanging in there for the long haul with the abstinance thing. I think she's more than willing to wait for some Simon, although she might not wait forever.
Although, I'm not particularly a Simon/Kaylee fan -- to me they are part and parcel of the world I bought into when I fell in love with Firefly.

There is no way Simon's a virgin. I'm sure that he (like Kaylee said in The Message) at least some women who wanted a gorgeous, rich, and intelligent doctor from a very good family. I'm sure he's been seduced or something when he was younger. But I doubt Simon has ever been in a serious relationship. I have a whole 'nother fanfic floating around in my head for that.
I need to find time to write.
Simon is not a virgin. Companions are a commonplace social commodity that ensures guys like Simon get socially accepted sex. Maybe Kaylee should snatch some of that incense.

I absolutely agree, the odd couple friendship that those two have going on is great. If ever there is a lull in the ship, chances are you can find them together, chances are having a deep philosophical debate about whether or not Vera has a soul.
Hey, I've been in a firefight before! Well, I was in a fire... Actually, I was fired from a fry-cook opportunity.
I do love those Jayne and Book moments, but the best pair on the ship has got to be Mal and Zoe. And not for romance. For the solid, deep, abiding love/respect/stand-by-me thing. I mean, who can't love a pair where the man wears a dress while the woman attacks by diving out of the back of a wagon with all guns blazing?
And they have proved that they can open up their relationship enough to hold a piece of gou shi ship and a brash, tacky pilot you can't stand who later usurps the position of main man. Yeah, it's all about Zoe and Mal.
Never fear, there's room for Inara, too. And, with all the tension leading up to Mal/Inara and the trouble they would have if they ever tried to get it together, it protects Zoe/Wash's marriage. Someone else here wrote about the conflict that is destined to end their marriage, but if you have the other tension in the family, they can play the baby tension thing for some time, at least until you can work the bundle in. And think what a wonderful nanny/tutor River will be.
Face it, a Zoe/Wash kid would give River something to do. AND, it'd be great because she would always know where the kid was and what it was thinking.

I always say that more than a mouthful is never enough... So Saffron gets my "Best of" Award.

Hmmnnn.. Saffron without a doubt has the "best pair"!
I disagree. Saffron may have the biggest pair, but that hardly makes them the best. My vote is for Zoe or Inara.

Hmmm..well I hate soap operas, so let's just keep Zoe's ass a corpse and leave Wash/Kaylee as a happy go lucky pair of lovers then.

Things i just can't picture:
I can't see Simon as a virgin
I can't see him being a very promiscious person either.
And again, i can't see him requiring the assistance of a companion either.
Yes Simon probably had LOADS of women swooning for him (I mean come on! who wouldn't?) but he was probably to driven as a doctor to really give them any thought.
~~~~~~~~~~THREAD DIRECTION CHANGE~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I could see Simon and Kaylee not working out, but this is the reason that i see it being most likely to be:
Somehow, a bounty hunter/the alliance find out the whereabouts of Simon and River, and at the same time, find out the love affair between Simon and Kaylee. Because of Simon taking great care in not being caught, the bounty hunter/the alliance find it to hard to get him, and so they take Kaylee instead.
Somehow Simon and Mal (because of both of theirs deep love-in different senses of course-for Kaylee) save Kaylee, and in the end, Simon realizes that he is too much of a danger to Kaylee, and though he loves her, can not be 'with' her.

Okay, everyone keeps bringing her up, so I'll throw out the oddest pair although in a way the cutest and most entertaining: Mal and Saffron. Come on, you all know he has got to respect her for continually one-upping him (to an extent, he did get the gun in the end). Additionally, she is a very different personality than anyone on the ship.
