Finally, a place stranger than his office!

Strange things happening around an office filled with magical beings is the norm in Mordred's life. Every day he deals with with magic users, vampires, and landlines in a bag (that call God, no less), so opening a door and finding something unexpected on the other side isn't really a shock. Or it shouldn't be, but a multi-dimensional hub is far outside even the young man's definition of "normal".

Instead of stepping into an unused office supposedly filled with the missing supplies he needs, he finds himself stepping out onto a chilly street along the Plaza. Mordred blinks a few times as he takes in his surroundings (including a-- Captain America PSA?), silently thanks the Goddess he's actually wearing a sweater while he looks around the area, and then makes his way over to the pamphlets to check one out. It's not the most helpful reading material, but it's enough that he looks slightly less nervous once he's worked up the nerve to ask a question as instructed.

"So, I-- This might not be the best first question to ask of strangers, but..." The druid's cheeks flush as he tugs at the bottom of his sweater, his fingers worrying the hem as he gathers his thoughts. "My fiancé and I are getting married soon, and a-a friend of ours-- his sister, actually... Well, she's planning everything-- for us, but I feel like I should contribute something." He frowns thoughtfully for a moment, then sighs heavily. "If you could add-- anything you wanted to a wedding, what would it be? Anything I should-- avoid, at the very least?"

"It is not unusual here. There are duplicates, reincarnations and all manner of manifestations of the same here."

The last part of commentary gets a laugh from Astaroth. "Two of my elder brothers have taken servants of God as partners. I'm not unfamiliar with the dynamic." After Lucifer showed up in love with an angel of heaven, he simply can't be surprised by heavenly and not so heavenly falling in love.

"Perhaps. I know of someone with a similar appearance." Astaroth sighs. "I only hope if you meet our king you fair better favor."

"Our eldest brother is known for falling quickly. The fact that is choice of partners leaves God astir is only an additional benefit. My other brother took us all by surprise, though his strong convictions have proven a common bond." He pauses with curiosity. "Tell me about your partner of God and how you differ. I wonder if there are similarities."
