“Whatcha doing?”

“Moving ‘Nara…again.”

“Another fight huh? Was it about her shuttle?”

“Don’t much know. Don’t much care.”

“Then why is it every time Simon and I have a fight you want to know all the details?”

“Me and Moon brain place bets on how long it’ll be ‘fore he pisses himself and crawls back.”

“You do not…. do you?”

“Eh”

“So how often have you won?”

“None yet.”

“You do remember she reads minds, right?”

“Gorrammit! That’s cheatin. I should...”

“Serves you right. You shouldn’t be betting on our relationship.”

“I seem to recall you betting on Mal and ‘Nara’s”

“When did I do that?”

“Same day Mal cut her shuttle loose to lose them Feds. You said, I bet Inara won’t be happy about this”

“That’s not a bet. I just meant she wouldn’t like it”

“Bet’s a bet. Was a nice piece of work you did, pulling it off.”

“Well thanks. It was fun rigging up those water heaters to look like heat signatures. Shame there wasn’t another way.”

“Yeah I’d a liked to seen their faces when they finally caught up to it.”

Still doesn’t mean I was betting against them. I’m happy their together…well, when their together.”

“Yeah the four of you can go on a double date.”

“Don’t be mean.”

“Be a site easier if he would just pay for it like me. They don’t argue less you want ‘em too, I’m sure it costs extra, and ya ain’t gotta move all their stuff around.”

“That’s…disgusting. Haven’t you ever been in love?”

“Go on now. I got to get this done. Then I’m having a talk with your sister in-law. No rutting way I’m doing her chores.” “I wonder if Zoe’s bunk will be back up for grabs? Simon and I could use the extra space.”
