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.

Just a thought, Insight Spinner, it's not only Kaylee and Bester, it was the fact of the "somewhat odd" place Kaylee chose for their lovemaking. Kaylee not being particularly embarassed by Mal's appearance, also her not bothering to zip her dress all the way up. Then take a look at The Message, sure looks to me like Kaylee is flirting with Tracy, right up till he takes her hostage. Don't get me wrong, I loved Jaynestown where Simon and Keylee woke up snuggled together, then in The Message where Kaylee slips her hand into Simon's. I'm just pointing out from the indications in other episodes, Kaylee seems to be "easy" and I just don't see a prim and proper Simon being able to equal her in bed or engine room or wherever...NOTIFY: Y | REPLY | REPLY WITH QUOTE | PERMALINK | TOP | HOME

Yeah, but that doesn't seem like an out-of-control sexual appetite to me. She didn't get any from Tracy (but there wasn't a lot of time). I would call her easy going rather than easy, I think. Seems her sex drive is pretty normal, since it is clear that she is not a person to eschew sex until a certain relationship milestone has been accomplished. I mean, it's clear she wants some Simon yesterday, too. She's definitely not channeling chastity, but that doesn't mean she has a sexual appetite that Simon can't match. And since she is so patient, she can wait for him to catch up. Although, maybe he can't. He's a Big Damn Nerd and I am hardly a Simon apologist!!
This is fun, fireglygal! WHEEEEEEEE!! If you are right, maybe Kaylee she should just go be with Jayne.

All i wanted to say as far as a River/Jayne relationship.. well two things. 1) he's seen her naked already. (heh.) 2) His first impression of her, "She's cute, too, but I don't think she's all there, y'know? 'Course, not all of her has to be..."
I was surprised no one put that in... i dug up this thread just to say that.

You know, Insight Spinner, Kaylee just might have a sexual match in Jayne but that's just wrong. I think of the Jayne/Kaylee relationship as a brother/sister thing. As for Simon, well maybe he'll throw down those manners and respect for Kaylee and let himself be shown a good time. I just see Simon as so conventional (if you catch my drift) I see him thinking Kaylee would be weird for some of the places she'd want to do it.NOTIFY: Y | REPLY | REPLY WITH QUOTE | PERMALINK | TOP | HOME

You are so right about Kaylee/Jayne. And I think Simon is just waiting to get turned out (Earlier today I heard Rick James' Bustin out on the radio and thinking about Simon with Kaylee, that tune jumped into my head!! ....He's bustin' out of this L-7 square!....

I agree with Gunhand on the Jayne/Book thing. I think the two have more in common than we're supposed to know at this point!

I think so too, and I wouldn't be surprised if say 20 years from now, if he lives that long, Jayne didn't become...a Shepard.
Crazy, yeah I know. But there are less narrow paths and he could become a married Shepard in a less strict (more Protestant maybe) order.

He definitely thinks she's attractive, although this is Jayne, might be his only requirement for a woman to be attractive is that she has a pulse. No, I take that back. In HoG he says that he "Hopes the whores are prettier than the whore house." See?! He has standards people.
Anyway, before River cut him I doubt very much if he would have refused her if she had tried to jump him. Not saying she would have tried, this is hypothetical. Now I think he'd be a bit more wary, but I still say a Jayne/River pairing is possible.

Everyone is overlooking this famous couple on the show:
Jayne/Vera - he has sentimental feelings for her and she likes to get taken out a lot 
;)
As for Jayne/Kaylee fics have you checked out Neroli's here in the Blue Sun Room? Or you would try this great fanfic archive: http://firefly.populli.org/
I think Kaylee and Jayne together eventually would have been fun, but I do suspect his feelings are more in the protective brother vein than in the truly romantic sense. That hasn't stopped that being my fave pairing for fics.
Jayne and River was not a pairing I picked up on in first viewing but
a) he obviously finds her attractive
b) she unsettles him because she is not afraid of him and can see through his bluster
c) she is constantly surprising him by her actions and interactions with him (forcing him to continually reassess her)
I think there would have been huge possibilities with these two.
Plus the conniptions it would cause Simon and Mal if River ever decided Jayne was her guy would be a hoot to watch.

Hmmm, I think Jayne and River is pretty unlikely for the simple fact of the,"I can kill you with my brain" line.
Now most men like slightly dangerous women, but having something like that said would cause even the most daring of men to think twice about wanting to get all cuddly with her.
I can see it now...
(interior a shopping mall in the Core)
River: "Do you think this dress makes me look fat?"
Jayne: "Of course not honey."
River: "Liar."
*insert head explosion a'la Scanners*
Or...
River: "Are you looking at that waitress' behind?"
Jayne: "Of course not sweetie."
River: "Liar."
*insert head explosion a'la Scanners*
Or...
River: "Why did you spend all that time in your bunk when Mal was kidnapped? Were you thinking about Inara and that blonde?"
Jayne: "Nothin'! Of course not dear!"
River: "Liar."
*starting to see a pattern here?*
All of that would be going through Jayne's head as possible likely outcomes to any future romantic interraction with River. Jayne may be a tad slow, that don't mean he's suicidal.
