The Bar at the End of the Universe

[OOM: Zoe makes a discovery. Say it with me now, kids--Serenity spoilers.]

Well.

Here's something we haven't seen in a while.

What is it? Oh, just a Serenity crewmember walking into the bar.

Those who don't know Zoe, or have only met her once or twice, probably won't be able to tell there's anything different. To anyone who knows her, however, there's a muted, subdued air about her.

Anyone who knows her well enough to detect it will probably also know why.


[OOC: Plotlocked, say xiexie. :D]

[OOM: Several days after the final battle, the crew of Serenity return to the ship, and start putting their lives back in order.

A day or so after that, Zoe seeks Simon out, and gets some...surprising news.

Finally, the crew take care of something, and then get back to work on repairs.

(Full of spoilers and Jossness, of course.)]
