[ Okay, so he's not wearing a shirt. But he's got his pants and gun belt on, weapons all secure so there's that at least. And he's pissed as he glares at the damn device. ]

This ain't mine.

[ Pause. Shrug. The device is tucked into his pocket. ]

Takin' the gorram thing anyway. If folks're gonna be dumb enough ta leave their things with mine, I ain't lookin' ta give it back. Nice lookin' anyhow. Sell it fer somethin'.

[ Pause. There's shuffling as he puts on his shirt. ]

Right. Got 'em all.

[ Pause. ]

Now where's the gorram ship?

[It's that kind of sigh that Mal does when he's basically given up on someone.]

[ There's a pause. Then a confused look. ]

Time vertexes? Sounds like somethin' that crazy girl would say. You hit yer head or somethin', Mal? 'cause I ain't lookin' ta babysit nothin' crazy.

... fine, but ain't nothin' replacin' Vera. Can't get a new one of 'em.

[captain_tightpants]

Best get used to it. Yer gonna hear all kinds o' crazy around here.

[Mal's frowning. He's not looking forward to having to explain to Jayne about the weird time anomalies or that people don't die for good or that some people can levitate things with their brains.]

Just get to town. I don't wanna hafta come after you.
