Kate would never say so out loud, but there's actually two reasons why she so often gives the welcome speech. Sure, she don't like to see people confused or upset; Milliways can be a big shock, and a friendly face can make all the difference. But she also likes seeing what folk are made of. You could call it messing with people, but that ain't entirely fair. She likes seeing how they tick, the way they react.
"Told you it'd be easier t'take if there's magic in your world."
She smiles around her whiskey. The liquor here is good, safe, and entirely real.
"I'll be honest with you. Way things here work even I don't understand, but y'stop worryin' on it after a while. This here's Miss Bar. She can get you anythin' y'need short of a weapon or a livin' thing. Food, drink, clothes, supplies — anythin'. She takes care'a folk here, an' as hard as it is t'wrap your head around at first, she's got a real wicked sense of humor. Ain't that right, ma'am?"
She angles that last question to the Bar herself, who replies on a clean napkin with a surprisingly detailed drawing of a cherub. Innocent as the driven snow.
"Whatever y'need, y'ask her directly. Mr. Wuornos? Care for somethin' t'drink?"
