"Ahh- celebration time, We better enjoy the silence before it's over again." Zoe gave him a look and shook her head, she knew it was best to say nothing at this point. She turned back to Wash and wrapped her arms around him.
"For once I would love for things to go smoothly." Wash sighed and turned his head, kissing her cheek.
"Does it ever?" Zoe sighed, before scruffing Wash's hair.
"No dear, which is why I said I would love things to go smoothly." Wash pressed a few more buttons, keeping them out of danger. It was up to the away team to get the job done, and now they had to keep River safe and keep Wendy from running away.

Simon was still in kind of a shocked state when someone placed a comforting hand on his shoulder. He raised his head ever so slightly, giving Inara a silent nod of appreciation. However, his worries were not only about River being where she was but, especially, about her doing stuff like that in the first place. He had promised to protect her while it seemed that River was permanently doing things her own way, probably because she thought she was of help. Maybe she really was, but, first of all, was she bringing herself in danger with actions like that. "I didn't want any of this to happen, to you or River. Simon," suddenly, another familiar voice rose him out of his thoughts. This time, Simon turned his head completely away from that corner he'd been facing ever since he had left the monitors. For a moment, they were just staring each other into the eyes, obviously both feeling a little awkward due to the ending of their last private conversation. However, Simon was glad that she still cared. "Talk to me. Please.""I-uh..." he started, stammering a little, before taking breath for another try. "She thinks she has to protect or save everyone, but... Well, I'm supposed to protect her, and I..." I feel like a failure, Simon finished only in thoughts, yet this was clearly readable from his face that, once again, turned slightly away from his conversation partner.

It came a moment that Jayne felt somehow redundant, or, at least, not needed right now, especially when not even the remarks nobody had asked for were commented any longer.
"Ah well," he spoke up again, more to himself since everybody else seemed to have gotten themselves into a private conversation or had left the bridge even. "If anyone needs me, I'll be in my bunk." Then Jayne turned to leave, as well.

"I-uh..." "She thinks she has to protect or save everyone, but... Well, I'm supposed to protect her, and I..."
Kaylee slowly shook her head gravely back and forth before entering the conversation once more with a reply. She was well aware that she had no place in telling Simon what to do or how to feel. Especially after the previous little fight they had. Well, to be quite honest, it was more of Kaylee feeling things frustratingly with little to no reciprocation back. But that was then. Now, all that mattered was River's well being - and Simon's.
"Don't think on that. Not for a minute, Simon," Kaylee felt as if Simon thought of himself as a failure. For not keeping a closer eye on River. For letting her down, "You've been a better brother than most I've seen. You've got a big heart with the power of a RS-68 rocket engine. I'd give an arm for anyone to care for me like that." Kaylee complimented Simon in her own, unique fashion. She didn't know much outside of engines and parts, but she hoped that he would see the good that she instilled in her attempt to console him.

"Don't think on that. Not for a minute, Simon,""You've been a better brother than most I've seen. You've got a big heart with the power of a RS-68 rocket engine. I'd give an arm for anyone to care for me like that."
He might not be convinced of her words, not as for her not meaning them but for him believing them, but he truly appreciated her attempt to cheer him up, especially after this rather tense conversation they'd had not so long ago. "Kaylee, I- thank you. Really," Simon uttered rather shyly. He was still unsure how to talk to her, actually had been from the very first moment. But the worst of it was that she seemed to persistently mistaken the reason for that. Kaylee was important to him, and she meant a damn lot to him, in so much more than just an amicable way, but he was simply unable to show this the right way. So, instead of reaching out with an apology for words that might have come off insensitive or even harsh, Simon wasn't able to bring it up again, at all, in hopes that she would read the apology out of his eyes.

"Kaylee, I- thank you. Really,"
Kaylee knew things were still a bit tense between them, so it was understandable why he didn't have many words. She didn't want to push him into anything, and yet she wanted nothing more but to envelop him in comfort. Kaylee felt that he needed some space and time to let it all sink in and to calm himself down. Taking a few steps backwards, she would leave him with an offer in case he didn't want to be alone. In case he wanted her company, "I'll be in my bunk for a while if you want to talk more and get anything off your chest." Anything, Kaylee thought inwardly as she broke away from Simon's presence and made her exit.

As soon as Simon noticed that she was taking a few steps away from him, he wanted nothing more than to hold her back, holding her in an embrace and telling her so much more. But, like usual, he couldn't. He simply couldn't take this one last step in her direction, in a transferred sense. Although Simon knew that if anything shall happen between them, it would be his turn now to take some action.
"I'll be in my bunk for a while if you want to talk more and get anything off your chest."
He couldn't even say anything more at this very moment, but instead watched her exit, giving a silent nod to her offer, at least. You're such an idiot, Simon cursed himself in silence before turning towards the door as well, yet not to take the offer but to leave to his own. He just couldn't. Especially not with this other worries on his mind.
