"No." grunted Jayne and a horrible thought flashed into his head. The last time he'd seen Zoe was her returning after a short trip away from the ship to visit some old friends. He'd been surprised that even in a couple weeks her belly seemed to have swollen twice it's size. Pregnancy was scary like that.

As much of an asshole as Jayne was...there was something eating away at him talking to the formerly dead pilot he used to threaten on a near daily basis.

Lucky for Jayne he had an old fallback rule. If you don't understand something it's probably not worth the effort.

"All the people in the verse to get stuck here with and I get your goofy ass." That was a more Jaynelike comment.
