Kaylee light up like a freaking christmas tree as Mal touched Inara all personal like. Oh gosh, it was really happening. Right in the Atmo! By snorblasters and telsa coils! He was touching Inara! Oh galaxies! Kaylee was so damned pleased she nearly toppled over, catching herself and grinning like a kid that just ate all the cookies in the jar, the news Mal relayed made it worse. Kaylee was bouncing.
"Serenity?! Here?! For me to talk to right Mal? You wouldn't let just anyone talk to her, she talks to me and only me and really Mal? MY BUNK? With my things? And my dress? And my hammock, and the engine and all the little odds and ends and REALLY?"
Kaylee was so damned excited she punched the air and started to laugh, so happy. So very happy.
That was until she realized he said rough shape.
"What do you mean rough shape? Did River crash it? What happened to her? Tell me Mal! How is she?!"
