Serenity was quietest at night.
Simon sat reading on the common room couch, his sore leg stretched out in front of him. The only sound in the room was the silent turning of the pages and Serenity's gentle hum. The book dipped, Simon's eyes fluttering shut, when a sudden thump from the cargo bay made him start awake and drop the book, the movement jostling his sore leg.
"Wo de ma he ta de fen kuang de wai sheng dou-"
"Easy there, doc," Mal said, appearing in the doorway, the portable Cortex held in his hands. "Just me."
"I don't know if that's better or worse." Simon muttered, grimacing when a spasm shot through his leg.
The captain smiled and put the Cortex down on the coffee table next to Simon's leg, taking a seat on the chair next to the couch. "Leg botherin' ya?"
"Not at all," Simon deadpanned. "I've had mosquito bites worse than this."
Mal laughed, a small smile making its way onto the doctor's face.
The Cortex pinged and Mal's smile fell.
"Is something wrong, Captain?" Simon asked. He tried to push himself up but hissed when his leg shifted. Mal passed him the screen and sighed.
"They, uh, they updated yer wanted bulletins."
He didn't need to see the screen to know why the boy froze. Hell, he would have done the same.
Both of the Tam's bounty had been increased with a 1000 credits and the words Dead or Alive flashed next to Simon's name.
It was quiet, Serenity's engine a steady hum.
"It's a few days old-"
Simon's voice was soft and Mal almost missed it, but missing what he said was as hard as missing a brick wall.
"We'll leave."
Mal stopped, stunned.
"Huh?"
Simon's eyes were downcast, his jaw set and his body tensed.
"I said, Captain, we'll leave. River and I are a threat in more ways than one and-"
"Doc."
His voice was harsh but Mal wanted, needed, the kid to hear this.
"Doc, listen to me. You and yer sister are crew and that's not nothing. Ya ain't leavin' this ship just because yer bounty'd been increased. Yer safer here than anywhere else."
He tried to catch the doctor's eyes.
"If ya want to leave, then so be it. But it should be yer own decision, not out o' some misplaced sense of protection. We can look after our own, and, well," Mal smiled, "having a doc on board to patch us up after ain't too bad."
Simon laughed quietly and looked up at the Captain with suspiciously bright eyes.
"Why?"
"How many times do I have to say this, son? Yer on my crew."
Mal gently clapped Simon on the shoulder, careful not to jostle him.
He stood up, picking up the fallen book and handing it to Simon before he left. Just as he reached the doorway, he turned back. Simon looked up at him, frowning.
"Oh, and doc?"
"Yes Captain?"
"Try not to get shot again, dong ma?"

Dead or Alive, 60-Billion Yeehawgust Day 3 - Wanted Poster [IMG ID: An aged, water-damaged and slightly torn and bullet-shot poster of Vash the Stampede - done in pen and pencil, black and white with tea-staining. Depicts a young-looking man with spiky hair smiling widely. Wording is WANTED DEAD OR ALIVE, with the INCORRECT sum of 60,000,000.00 $$ see below for artist-mistakes. ] (Realizes too late that I actually have 60 Million there, instead of 60 Billion. The poster in the manga I was using to draw from had a narrative box blocking out some of the graphics and I didn't see all of the zeros. Just pretend that some graphic artist on Planet Gunsmoke / Noman's Land screwed up or that the ".00" is actually an abbreviation for more double-dollars because they ran out of room - or maybe his bounty was lower at some point, like in the beginning of Trigun Stampede). - Gah, I feel boneheaded for not noticing that until it was too late!

Wanted Dead Or Alive - Clara Seger/Elle Greenaway
A/N: Day 3 of @yeehawgust​ . We’re going Western AU this time. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Clara’s been staring at the Wanted Poster as long as it’s hung opposite the saloon she’s been working at for years, but when she sees the woman on the poster she finds it hard to want to tell on her, instead she’s drawn to the woman’s side, leaving her work in a way that she knows could get her killed. Elle smirks down at her, offers her a hand and helps her up onto the horse, the two leaving the small town for dust. It’s only later in the light of the campfire that Clara dares to let herself wonder just what Elle did to be so wanted. “Spurned the advances of the mayor…” Elle shrugs, spoons more beans into her mouth and chews in silence for a while, then glances over at Clara. “Why’d you run with me anyway, I saw the wanted poster, you coulda bought your freedom…” “And what? Live in town… no, they’d never let me forget…” “Forget?” “Nothin’.” She can’t tell Elle the truth but she knows Elle sees the bruises and cuts on her. Her work isn’t pleasant. Saloons are rough, especially for women, but her job keeps her safe, usually. Now she’s run from it and she finds the danger intriguing. “Well, I’m lucky anyhow…” Elle murmurs. “Pretty girl like you, not exactly usually the type to risk it all on a renegade.”

Yeehaw! Day three! Featuring the horse that was nearly impossible to name! 🤠🐴
When the Cactus Blooms
3. Wanted Poster
“Wagon or horse?”
McCoy stood inside the kitchen. Uhura and Christine were getting the dishes cleaned up from breakfast with Keenser and Chekov’s help.
“Horse,” Christine said as she looked over at him.
“Alright,” McCoy said. “We’ll be ready when you are.” He turned and left the kitchen through the porch door and headed for the stables.
He hummed a tune to himself as walked. The day was beginning to warm, but a breeze was keeping it from getting too hot.
Through the stable and out the back into the pasture, he gave a two note whistle. Honey turned and looked at him.
“C’mon girl. Time to saddle up.”
Nearer to him one of the other horses was grazing. McCoy walked over and patted its side.
“You too, Pepper.”
Christine was waiting in the shade of the porch when McCoy returned, leading the two horses. He could hear her laughing but couldn’t see who was with her.
“Ready?” he asked.
“Oh Leo!” she said, turning around. “Yes I am.”
She came down the porch stairs, Scotty behind her.
“Where are ye two off to?” Scotty asked, looking slightly puzzled. “Ye aren’t helping with the branding are ye Miss Christine?”
Christine laughed again, but McCoy gave a slight shudder. He knew that branding the cattle was important but it was still his least favorite activity around the ranch.
“Oh no,” Christine answered Scotty. “Leo and I are heading into town. Send some letters, pick up a few things.”
“You wanna ride Honey? She’s good and calm today,” McCoy asked when Christine reached him.
“Absolutely not,” she slapped him lightly on the chest. “Pepper’s a good lively girl. Aren’t you?” She turned to pat the horse on the neck, and grinned at Scotty.
“Up with ya then so we can get going,” McCoy told her with a raised brow.
She got a foot in the stirrup, and with McCoy’s hands firm around her gave a jump at the same time he lifted up. The Enterprise ranch had no side saddles. The ladies, often as not, usually went to town in the wagon. But for a short trip, Christine had no problem sitting to the side in a normal saddle.
After all, McCoy knew as soon as they were out of sight of anyone else, she’d fix her skirts and sit astride anyway. He turned back to Honey and swung into the saddle.
“Hope branding goes easy,” he said to Scotty, who was still watching them from the foot of the steps. Scotty blinked in surprise at him, before his eyes seemed to focus again on McCoy.
“Aye. Thank ye. Good luck in town. Miss Christine.” Scotty gave a nod of his head, strode away, just slightly faster than McCoy expected.
He watched after Scotty for a moment before Christine reached across and swatted at him. McCoy looked over and saw the questioning look on her face.
“Let’s go,” he said, turning forward quickly and nudging Honey along.
“You should just say something!” Christine called behind him. “You know I’m always right!”
“Where ya wanna go first?” McCoy asked as they turned onto the main street of the town.
“Take care of the letters.”
They reached the post office, and McCoy swung down first to tie up the horses and then help Christine. She didn’t need the help of course, but in town she didn’t want people to think her improper.
McCoy held the door and they were greeted by the clerk behind the counter.
“Best give us everybody’s,” Christine said, “no one else will be in any time soon.”
“Certainly Miss Chapel. Give me a moment.”
The clerk turned for the back room and disappeared.
McCoy had stepped over to a wall with notices posted.
“Anyone new?” Christine asked, stepping over and taking his arm.
“This fella,” McCoy nodded. “Marcus. Corruption and theft.” The dark haired man on the poster was unhappy looking.
“Murder,” Christine mumbled softly. “Hope they catch him soon.”
“Here you are Miss Chapel.” The clerk came back with a bundle of envelopes and one small box. “Let me tie those up for you.” He produced a string and wrapped it handily around the envelopes.
Christine thanked him as McCoy tucked the letters inside his jacket pocket.
“Lead on Miss Christine,” McCoy grinned and gestured at the door.
Christine rolled her eyes. “Let’s go see Geoff.”
