Rating/Warning(s): a heavy PG13/light R
Genre: drabble, romance, sexual content
WIP?: nope
Why This Must Be Read: I have never read a story that so perfectly and beautifully explains a relationship in quite so few words. This tiny story captures everything that you've wondered about Jayne/River; that sense of oddness and wonder that you feel while watching the show, the huh, maybe moment when you think about them as a couple.
This! This story is that. It captures everything and presents it in a metaphor that is so unbelievably perfect. It explores why Jayne would be interested in River, and how everyone would react to them, and how he wouldn't care.
It's completely in character. You don't have a suddenly super-sentimental Jayne, but the real Jayne will all his roughness.
Its perfect. Go read it.
note: this was written for the pornbattle, but its really not porn.
