I like this a lot, with the Wash-voice, and the quietness and all. And the hint of back-story:
Wash preferred to stay in the moment. Better that way.
But especially:
What was the correct answer? What would prevent a fight with Zoe? God, how exactly did Wash end up in this overpopulated marriage with her and him? Wash was sure that even Jayne would make an easier spouse than Mal. Then again, at least Mal’s cleaner.
Which is so beautifully Wash - where "correct" = "prevents a fight with Zoe", and even his thoughts wander off into a digression.
