Greatcoats and Braces, Waistcoats and Watches

Firefly versus Torchwood.

Let's ponder this a moment, shall we? Space Travel. Band of intelligent outcasts fighting for the greater good, Companions....

Actually, you know what? Let's look at pictures. That's always more fun.

The Captain Who Once Fought In A War And Now Travels With A Gang of Misfits, But Still Wears The Coat

The Man Who Demanded And/Or Conned His Way In So He Could Smuggle A Slightly Damaged Woman And Save Her

HOW IS THIS NOT THE SAME SHOW?!

Oh, yes. Because Torchwood has THIS:



In Mal/Simon's defense, Firefly might have gotten there, too, if allowed to continue past the first season. Right? Of course right.

The End. :)

YES! Tosh is so Kaylee! Oh! It's perfect. And Gwen is an accurate Shephard Book on most counts. She can only be Zoe occasionally because Rhys is totally Wash.

But who's River!?

I can handle Mal pining for Inara sort pf, because I adore her. But! Simon/Jayne innuendo!? I'm down. *Now really hates the networks*

River... hmmm, hard one.
She fits Lisa as the smuggled/injured one.
And part Myfanwy as the... pet? (Ianto/Simon adores her, though the Ianto-Myfanwy adoration is fanon).
And the Rift for sheer awesomeness/kick-ass.

From TVTropes: "According to Adam Baldwin, there would have been deliberate innuendo between Simon and Jayne if the series hadn't been cancelled." Dunno if that is true though...

Oh, she is definitely the Rift. I like that. And fanon is fine; sometimes I trust it more than I do canon. :)

And, not that it matters now, but I HOPE it was true. That's just fantastic!
