I don't have a strong pro or con reaction to Mal/Inara - it's part of canon, and along with I'm sure the entire crew I often wish they'd just screw and get it over with, and they'd probably have fun together and then realize they weren't made for long-term romance. it would certainly be better than pining, which neither of them is very good at. What they are both good at, unfortunately, is putting up barriers that make things worse.
Kaylee is probably my favorite character, and I have a strong knee-jerk "he doesn't deserve her" reaction to Simon/Kaylee, though really I think it's more that unless she manages to change him (and why would I want that; Simon is adorable) it just isn't ever going to work, and he'll do something really awkward and cutting at the end of it, and she'll be hurt. But not for long. So it's okay.
