She's wearing it a lot easier this year.

Kaylee also doesn't see anything wrong with drinking straight whiskey, either; these two things could have something in common. Then again, correlation is not causation. Or that's what the kids are saying these days, anyway.

For a split second, the man coming through the door is wearing camouflage fatigues, with a cap and aviator sunglasses.

And then he is wearing a crisp navy blue uniform, with no jacket and with the dress shirt sleeves rolled up, a cheesy pair of wings clipped to the shirt pocket, a cheesier cap tilted at a jaunty angle on his head, and a cheesiest blue scarf tied around his neck. His nametag says HI MY NAME IS JIM HOW CAN I HELP YOU.

Jim Rhodes looks down at himself.

"This isn't even funny," he tells the bar, indignant as all hell, and he pulls off the scarf.

Kaylee, on the other hand, is completely comfortable and at home -- even if her feet weigh about four pounds more than usual.

"It's a nice scarf, though," she says. Encouragingly.

"It's a stewardess uniform," says Rhodey, disgustedly.

(Actually, to be precise, it is the steward's uniform for the crew on Stark Industries' private plane.

Not that there has been a steward on Stark Industries' private plane recently.)

"Whoever did this couldn't have at least made it the pilot's?"

Belatedly, now that the scarf is no longer throttling him, he turns to look at his conversational partner.

"--Hi," he says. "Sorry. Little annoyed."

"I'm gettin' that," Kaylee says -- in a friendly way, and her smile's easy. "Least it don't involve glitter, though -- I'm guessin' you didn't want it to involve glitter?"

"Doctors say that drinkin' liquor straight-up ain't healthful, miss browncoat."

Mal's laughing.

So is Kaylee, delighted. "Whoever said that ain't a real doctor, doc."

"Does this mean Simon's going to come in in that hoopskirt dress? Let me go get a camera -- "

Kaylee aims a glance over her shoulder. "I don't know. I guess we'll see." Beat. "If he does, I get copies, right?"

Teyla (herself in rather unconventional garb) has seen many strange things since coming to Milliways, but this is the first time she's seen a familiar face.

"Jennifer?"

[gonna_live]

Kaylee blinks. "No, sorry -- you lookin' for a Jennifer?"

[childofathos]

"I am sorry." Teyla takes a closer look and shakes her head. The woman looks younger certainly, but, "You look very similar to someone I know."

Kaylee looks away, her smile a little crooked. "That... tends to happen some, yeah." She shakes her head, and looks back at Teyla, and holds out her hand. "Kaylee Frye."
