I am so very much the same. The story's in the journey, not the destination. ;)

I read a fantastic Jayne/Kaylee Wash/Zoe pre-series fic, that had some just...amazing Jayne/Zoe moments, as well as some Jayne/Mal and Mal/Zoe (all in a non-romantic sense). It really flushed out some of the complications and intricacies between them all. I think Zoe and Jayne maybe aren't friends, but they're close to it.
