Fist of all, I ship Topher and Bosslady as well and just like you, I'm a canon slasher (I think that was the word you used).
I was very excited when Whisk (her name escaped me for the moment) told Boss Lady that Topher won't take meds w/o her. It was actually sweet in a broken sort of way. For once Whedon actually managed to make a good pair and good characters (mind you that doesn't happen a lot on US TV, the parings usually annoy me; Whedon's characters in general annoys me more often than not, but I like the bosslady and Topher from the start). And then I was hit by the most heartbreaking scene and you put my feeling in words beautifully.
Like I said, Whedon's characters are in general not my cup of tea, but I still kept watch his show, b/c he can write great and powerful stories. As for RTD... he's just in a completely different, lesser league, thus I won't even bother to compare the two... writing-ability wise.
