Firefly Pimpage - Wash
FINALLY!
I've been swamped by work and cold and so on for the past few days, and the pimpage has suffered greatly from it. Still, I wanted to get Wash done, because Wash is cute, Wash is fun, Wash is the kind of pilot you want... well, more or less... really... he's a good pilot, only slightly insane...
"I am a leaf on the wind. Watch how I soar."
Short Backstory:
Wash was born on a planet with so much pollution you couldn't see the stars and thus decided he'd be a pilot to actually see them.
A prize pilot that everyone wanted, but Mal got, for some odd reason. He came aboard and at first Mal's 1st mate Zoë claimed to dislike him, but she ended up marrying him. Maybe it's because he makes her laugh? Or maybe it's because he shaved the dead rat off (aka moustache).
Wash swings between being calm in the deadliest situations and going completely crazy. He's got a wacked out sense of humor that surfaces at the oddest moments. He's also got an army of toy dinosaurs that he plays with in the cockpit when he's on duty and got nothing special to do.
The Why:
He didn't really appeal to me at first, but after watching Train Job, seeing him fly... seeing him pull of the train heist with Serenity? I had to yield. Wash is a God among Gods *g* He can make me howl with laughter, and I'd have loved to see more of the tension between him, Mal and Zoë, over Zoë's loyalty.
The Quotes:
Wash: "Yes. Yes, this is a fertile land, and we will thrive. We will rule over all this land, and we will call it... "This Land. I think we should call it your grave! Ah, curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal! Ha ha HA! Mine is an evil laugh!"
Ah... yes, he's playing with his toy dinosaurs...
[Serenity - The Pilot]
Zoë: "Sir? I'd like you to take the helm, please. (said to Mal) I need this man to tear all my clothes off."
Wash: "Work, work, work..."
[Serenity - The Pilot]
Zoë: "I know something ain't right."
Wash: "Sweetie, we're crooks. If everything were right, we'd be in jail."
[Serenity - The Pilot]
Wash: (alarmed) "Oh my god. What can it be? We're all doomed! Who's flying this thing!? (deadpan) Oh right, that would be me. Back to work."
Zoë: "Is there any way I'm gonna get out of this with honor and dignity?"
Wash: "You're pretty much down to ritual suicide, lambie-toes."
[War Stories]
Kaylee: "Wash, tell me I'm pretty."
Wash: "Were I unwed, I would take you in a manly fashion"
Kaylee: "Cuz I'm pretty?"
Wash: "Cuz you're pretty."
[Heart of Gold]
"A man walks down the street in that hat, people know he's not afraid of anything..." (Wash referring to Jayne's hat...)
[The Message]
Wash: "Yeah, but psychic? That sounds like science fiction."
Zoë: "You live on a spaceship, dear."
Wash: "So?"

The pretties!

A sweet promo shot of Wash

Getting Serenity into position over a train is one thing...
[Train Job]

Keeping her there is by no means easy.
[Train Job]

Not without reason that Wash is a damned good pilot, keeping Serenity hanging over a train while they pull an insane heist.
[Train Job]

Jayne: "What we need's a diversion. I say Zoe gets nekkid."
Wash: (sitting on the floor, head on knees) "Nope."
Jayne: "I could get nekkid."
All: (but most vehemently, Wash, with a shocked expression) "No!"
[Shindig]

"We gotta go to the crappy town where I'm the hero!"
[Jaynestown]

The dead rat... there's no other way to describe that ...moustache or whatever you wanna call it LOL
[Out of Gas]

Aww, bonding... Mal keeps Wash alive by pissing him off.
[War Stories]

Wash getting ready to go along with Zoë to rescue Mal. He may not be much of a hero, but he knows what Mal did to keep him alive during the torture.
[War Stories]

How do you keep a straight face in front of you captain, who's buck-naked?
[Trash]

The insane chase over an icy planet/moon -- Wash shows his crazier side. I mean, would you fly with this guy?
