thank you, lunabee. In a lot of media projects, Zoe would have had to learn "the error of her ways" and earnestly transcribe Saffron's bao recipe and generally try to be The Little Woman.
In the deleted OMR scene, River hasn't just considered breeding, she's pushing for a shotgun wedding! I've read a gazillion stories where Kaylee and Simon have a baby, and a few where Kaylee and Jayne do and I daresay she has thought about having one or more babies when she's through having Adventures. She reminds me a little of Ann Whitefield in "Man and Superman"--looking for "A father! A father for the Superman!"
I suspect that one of things going on in HoG is that Companions are temporarily or permanently sterilized, so Petaline has a baby she doesn't even really want (and it seems like she's going to be a TERRIBLE mother) and if I'm right, Inara can't have kids at all.
