No problem with the rec, dear. It's an awesome story.
Oooh, Firefly as film noir. Well, obviously Mal would have fought in WWI as a teenager. He probably had shell shock and is rather bitter about the whole experience. He would be a poor, out of work detective and a bootlegger on the side, with his 'crew'. Wash would be the driver, Zoe would be second, still, though not a war vet like Mal. I might say that her brother fought with Mal and died and Mal promised to look out for her. Kaylee would be the mechanic. Jayne would be the muscle. Inara would be the 'moll'. Perhaps a (high class) lady of the night, who Mal comes to for information a lot.
River would be some sort of genius who the mafia was using for some reason. Simon would have managed to get out of there and attempted to hide her with Mal and his crew. Mal would reluctantly agree to help hide them, but the mafia would be on their trail all the time. Book would be...hmmm. I guess he could be some sort of preacher trying to save their souls all the time, but who, occasionally, would help fight and be surprisingly good at it.
