Re: 14 OP
Hmm... I can see where you'd interpret all that in a shippy way. Mal and River do have an odd rapport that is unique to them. However, I see Mal as feeling paternal towards her more than anything - he understands her and he's sympathetic to her, she's part of his crew, and he definitely cares for her, but I think it's a fatherly thing, rather than anything likely to evolve into sexual feelings. In fact, just because I view Mal as River's father figure, the idea of him thinking of her in that way squicks me somewhat. Now, I could see it from River's perspective, because she handles emotions differently than the rest of us do, and I think you could make a case for her deciding to pursue Mal sexually based on a variety of factors. Still, I think that if Mal ever gave in and slept with her, which I consider unlikely, his initial reaction (and most likely, his lasting reaction) would be enormous guilt, because of the aforementioned father figure/age difference/brain-having-been-cut-up thing. So, I guess my point is that you might, might be able to plausibly get them to sleep together, but have a relationship, a stable one? That seems incredibly unlikely to me.
