There are those who make things happen, those who watch things happen, and those who don't know what the heck happened.

The way Jayne figured it, if you asked any of the crew, they'd laugh and say he was the last type. Just 'cause he didn't get all the book learning they did, they thought he didn't know what was what.

In his own head, Jayne preferred to think of himself as the second type. No point in risking his own neck in someone else's fight. Unless he was getting paid. In which case he'd be at the front of the first type with Vera at the ready.

So when Wash joked about a recent lack of sex, nobody expected Jayne to stand up, walk over to where the pilot sat, straddle him, and nip at his neck as everyone watched, stunned.

He wasn't usually one to make things happen.
