Wes has washed his hair more times in the past two days than he usually does in two weeks.

Sadly, his efforts have been rather futile -- his hair is still green with pink highlights. (If anything, it's a little brighter than before.)

"--anything," he's saying rather desperately to Bar, "for my hair? Please? It clashes with life. --no, shampoo

Here's a face Milliways hasn't seen in a long time. Lieutenant Harry Welsh, dressed still in the dirty uniform of American paratroopers from the 1940s, is sitting at the bar with his 6th shot of whiskey infront of him. The other five glasses are stacked into a neat little pyramid infront of him.

Its the green and pink that gets his not-yet-buzzed attention before the hat even appears. So the short little Irishman stares at Wes, his face scrunching up in thought, before he finally speaks and rather sacrastically. "Your hair. Is green. And pink."

"Mmf," Wes agrees through his hand: he facepalmed at the helpful news.

"Thank you. Yes. Green and pink. Rather dashing, don't you think?"

And there is more staring. This time at the hat..though the hair does get another look. "Fuck," the officer curses between laughter that starts to bubble up, "Thank God Hitler doesn't have stuff to do that. He'd make the entire Allied Invasion Force laugh ourselves to death."

Harry shakes his head, trying his best not to laugh anymore. "Bar. I think the man needs a glass of cognac on my tab."

Wes can't help a rueful grin at the laughter, and it turns less rueful when the drink appears. He gamely puts on the hat first, tugging it over his hair, before picking up the glass.

"Thanks," he says, raising it in a salute. "I have to say, I think more armies should employ the tactic of making their enemies laugh to death. It'd be fun to try, anyway, wouldn't it?"

"Hat. Now. Please," Chloe demands brightly as she pretends to shade her eyes from Wes' head. "That has to be the worse case of hair glow I've ever seen."

It's special, that's what it is. Even for Wes Janson.

"My hair is fantastic," Wes says quickly, grabbing the hat and turning to look at Chloe. "I don't know what you're talking about."

Contradictory? Nooo.

"It's pink."

[i_love_kettch]

"And green!"

This is clearly important.

"It's green, too."
