::pokes her head out from behind some loose cargo. puts down the box-cutter she was holding::

Oh, hey there, Killian. Didn't see you come in...

[_killian_]

*looks at Kaylee, but doesn't seem to really see her* [singsong] Kaylee, Kaylee...quite the innocent one. How is Bester?

[enginelovin]

::tries to offer a smile, but falters::

Um. What?

[_killian_]

*tilts head, smiling brightly* Hi Kaylee. *skips over to her and gives her a hug* Is Faith going to be moving in with you?

[_killian_]

*steps back* Just fine. I came down here to play so Daddy and Papa can have some time alone.

[enginelovin]

Oh. That's good then.

::leans against one of the loose crates::

And... your daddy's okay?

[_killian_]

Still a little broken. He'll get better, though. The dark man was hard on him. Daddy's strong and can take a lot, but some wounds aren't always physical. Papa will help make him better.

[enginelovin]

::succeeds with the smile this time::

I'm sure he will; Andrew an' your daddy are real good for each other. Love'll get 'em through hard times like these.

Inara walks by and sees Kaylee and Killian in the cargo hold...decides to drop in for a second...
Well hello there you two...what are you two up to?

[_killian_]

Talkin'. Are you off to keep Simon company again?

[_killian_]

Hope so. *looks down* There's dark times ahead. People back home aren't so accepting of men that are sly. I know Daddy's not...he's trade, but Papa is. There's gonna be trouble.

[enginelovin]

Folks can surprise you. Gotta have faith in the best of 'em... I bet things won't be so bad.

::glances at Inara:: Hey, you.

[classycompanion]

Hi there mei mei....how are you feeling?

[enginelovin]

Shiny.

::winks at her, trying not to make it too obvious in front of the child that she meant, "Shiny after the hot sex with Faith last night"::

What about you?

[redeemedrogue]

*pokes her head in*

K...?

*slinks over and wraps herself around Kaylee*

You ok, babe?

[enginelovin]

Bwaaah! ::jumps about 3 feet in the air, caught off her guard::

Oh. Faithy.

::tries to calm down, and glances towards where Killian just was. clings to Faith::

Not especially, but I'm better now that you're here.

[redeemedrogue]

*frowns*

Someone do somethin' to you, K? You're jumpier than...a very jumpy thing.

Who do I gotta kick the ass of?

[enginelovin]

Not so much done to me, more like weirdness with speech. But I'll live.

::idly plays with a loose bit of Faith's hair, slipping her other arm around her waist::

Never pegged you for the type to go around kickin' the ass offa little girls. ::smirks::
