Yes, it is a Cap'n.

Might be hard to recognize really, as he is not wearing his traditional duster and suspenders; can't deal with 'em sitting over his fun new soon-to-be pretty scars, y'see.

Slipping his way to the Bar pretty much unnoticed - he thinks - he picks up some hot tea and finds an overstuffed chair and ottoman somewhere near the observation window.

[OOM: Mal is off for the night, as mun cannot sleep through her alarm clock again tomorrow. If one is particularly interested, tag for a slowtimed convo tomorrow.]

"So I have to be blown to smithereens 'fore you start talkin' about me nicely? Wow. So that must mean you got some really nice plans for my eulogy."

"I can't tell you that, it'd spoil the surprise," Lilly says, laughing. "Well, I mean, being dead'll probably be the bigger surprise but really it's not all bad. Trust me."

She looks sternly at him.

"It's not done yet, though. So you're not allowed to need it any time soon, okay?"

[badinlatin]

Mal nods in agreement, a bit more serious now. "Yes Ma'am."

Mal gets nervous with Lilly using the word surprise in reference to Mal's anything, but does not broach the subject.

It wouldn't do him any good if he did bring it up. Certain plans might be maturing in the dark in suite 132, but Lilly'll never tell. She grins at him.

"If you'd have thrown in a salute, that would have been perfect. Not quite good enough to replace Alain as my first mate, but still very nice."

[badinlatin]

"My apologies, madam," Mal returns, offering a salute with a sitting bow. "I now know where I must strive to better myself."

Yeah, uh huh.

[awesome_lilly]

Lilly laughs out loud.

"Yeah, well, just make sure you work on that, okay? Us rogue spaceship captains have to look the part, you ken?"

[badinlatin]

"I kennit."

The surprise of the vocabulary will occur to him later. For now, he finishes his tea and smiles at life. For now.
