All Manners a Shiny

Kaylee was looking at him again, her eyes big and hopeful and Jayne felt a powerful urge to vomit. One word a marriage and little Kaylee was all doe-eyes at the prissified Doc.

"It ain't everyday we get a real-life wedding and I miss out on it," Kaylee pouted.

"Aww, it ain't a real weddin', lil Kaylee. Cap'n'll shake loose a her soon, and then all this weddin' crap'll be tossed out," Jayne grunted.

"Woulda been romantic is all," Kaylee sighed. "Real pretty flowers and a fancy dress. I woulda made a real pretty bridesmaid, if the captain had asked me."

"Flowers and fancy dresses? You -" Jayne chuckled as Kaylee cut him off.

"Just because I got feelings and you don't, it don't give you the right to make fun a me." Kaylee huffed, stomping out of the cargo bay.

"Nobody ever lets me finish, gorramit," Jayne growled. "She's gonna make a beautiful bride for that prissified Core boy one day. lucky hun dun"
