“Captain!” Kaylee hollered. “Tell Jayne to stop!”

“Jayne, stop. What’s he doing this time?” Mal asked.

“I’m just singin’ is all,” Jayne said.

“He’s butchering the song,” Kaylee said.

“Its called updating.”

“It wasn’t out of date!”

“What’s the song?”

“The Fight Song of Independents.”

“Aw Jayne! Anything but that. Take Zoe’s wedding chorals instead.”

Over the intercom: “I can and will hurt you both,” Zoe warned.

Simon made a big mistake then: he walked into the room and asked “What’s going on?”

“I was trying to sing,” Jayne answered.

“You sing?”

“When the mood strikes.”

“I’ll strike,” Kaylee muttered.

“Can I hear?” Simon asked.

“No!”

“Sure,” Jayne said, and belted out: “Take my love,

“Take my land,

“Take me til I can not stand.”
~~~~~~
The end.
author's note: I almost added _Jayne grinned._ after Kaylee threatened to strike. think I shoulda put that in?

I'm curious, can I ask which sentence made you rate it PG-17?
I don't really understand the rating system since I'm Swedish...
