Date: 2006-02-28 05:19 am (UTC)I want to believe that Zoe is pregnant in Serenity. I want to believe that even though Wash is gone, she is going to have that kid they were talking about, because it will be the most beautiful child, with reddish-gold hair, chocolate skin and clear blue eyes. And it'll choke Mal up from time to time, even though he'd never admit it - only River and the kid will know - but he'll teach her - the kid, she's a daughter - he'll teach her to fly, very early on, take her on his knees in Wash's pilot seat and put his big hands over her tiny ones on the 'wheel', and they'll play with the dinosaurs and god, I'm breaking my own heart thinking of this.
Wash and Zoe are just. They work so well, and I adore Joss for showing us a married couple, where the marriage isn't all happy on top of that, but where the marriage is working, and they're in love, and they have great sex, and they're both such interesting characters and she's this amazingly strong woman and he's not strong in the same ways but boy, is he as well, and she's a warrior and he's a pacifist and we know she's the reason he's here, first and foremost, she's his path to serenity.
And they just look so good together, Alan and Gina sold them perfectly, and I don't know if they did a better job at the happiness or the tensions, they did both so amazingly well, and the way they react when the other one is in danger, so different - Zoe all calm and stoic, Wash fiery and irrational and in-Mal's-face - and yet so very much the same, at the core, because it's love. All of it, love, and they have it, and rejoice in it, and that's why I love them.
...want me to go on? I could go on.

Date: 2006-02-28 09:49 am (UTC)Part of my special love for that show [besides every little thing about it] was that it had a married couple that were married. They didn't spend the whole show trying to get together, or cheating on one another, or having screaming rows. They were just married, and sometimes bad stuff happened, and they loved each other so much. It was the most real marriage I've ever seen in fiction. The way the different dimensions of each character [and actor] played off the other...
I want Zoe to be pregnant, I do. There are two different places in Serenity where I am certain Wash and Zoe went off and had great married sex, and I think it was one of those times. But on the other hand my poor little broken heart wants to see Wash teaching his daughter to fly. Making dinosaurs talk to her. Getting teared up and looking at Zoe like she's a miracle.

Date: 2006-03-02 04:59 am (UTC)...you know ever since I sobbed my poor little Browncoat heart when I first saw Serenity, I kinda prided myself in my attitude of "okay, so it killed me, and I'll probably cry each time I see it because let's face it I'm a crybaby for characters I love and hell do I love Wash, but I'm not gonna be in denial, he's dead and it was brilliantly done and the death he deserved ("I hope you end your life as a leaf on the wind") and I will not join any sort of denial clan." Except, the kid. That daughter of theirs (yes, it has to be a girl) is the one thing that makes me want to write denial!fic. I need to dig around and find that fic again which a friend of mine wrote, where that's precisely what it is, denial!fic and the daughter. And it made me cry.
