Welcome Committee

[sumarusfinest]

There's been so many fresh faces to the Nexus recently, and more than a few of them have been children. Questions about finding a way home, about trying to decide if they want to go home. People wondering what to do now...

There are a few tables set out this morning in the Plaza in front of a small cafe loaded with several caraffes of coffee, breakfast pastries from more than a few different worlds and cultures, and a large pan of eggs and sausage kept warm over a chafing dish. On either end of the table are disposable plates, cups, and cutlery as well as a few welcome pamphlets in a small container. Along the front of the tables is a hand made banner.

"Meet and Greet"

Manning the tables is Katsuya Suou, red apron on and a cup of coffee in hand. He looks far too cheerful for how early in the morning it is.

"Right then, is anyone hungry? Have any questions about the nexus?"


((OOC: Feel free to mingle and threadjump in this thread. I'm trying to get people who have yet to meet to interact, so do not feel obligated to only reply to me!))

When one sees dragons, the dead returning to life, a talking bear seems to be quite normal in Tyrion's little world. And with smile on his face, Tyrion is happy to accept the glass of wine without any hesitation.

And he takes a drink. "Thank you, my fine furry friend. And if you can do me a favor, and make sure everyone has a glass." He's never drank coffee before, and he always did like to start the day with a smooth Dornish red.

"Of course." [He'll at least try to fulfill the request, even if some people might reject the idea of alcohol in the morning.]

"To whom does Ice Bear have the pleasure of meeting today?" [He wants to ask more questions like where Tyrion is from but that would seem rude. The bear can't help but notice the unique wardrobe he's wearing, completely ignoring the size discrepancy between the two of them. In fact, it's the last thing on his mind.]

"Can Ice Bear get you anything else?"

[bigimpin]

Tyrion also wants to ask many rude questions as he looks up at the giant talking bear. "And I assume that you go by the name, Ice Bear. Ah what a fitting name for a big fellow such as yourself."

"Might I ask what kind of wine you happen to have?" Tyrion is looking to make sure the people here get a taste of Westeros if they happen to carry any flasks of wine from home.

He stops for a second and then he remembers the formalities of these events, and he bows his head. "As for who I am, Lord Tyrion of Houes Lannister and Hand of the Queen. But Tyrion will do just fine."

[icebearforpresident]

"Yes. Ice Bear is honored to meet someone from royalty. Ice Bear hopes to make Lord Tyrion happy." [Because ticking off royalty is generally a bad idea.]

"Ice Bear's selection for today is called Patrina Syrah. Very good blend that goes with meats." [So hopefully it will please, or at least satiate, Tyrion's desire for wine. If it doesn't, the bear can most certainly go and try to find a different blend.]

"Ice Bear would like to rule a country someday. Does Tyrion have any good advice or wisdom to bestow?"

[bigimpin]

Tyrion isn't going to tell a giant bear that anything tastes bad, for he fears it would end very badly. But the truth is. "I never had a wine like this before, and I find it to be quite delightful."

"My advice to you is not to rule. The life of being a peon sometimes sounds far more better than being in power. Though that doesn't mean one shouldn't aspire for wealth." Tyrion likes money, not having it did make him feel a tad bit exposed and for someone of his stature money is a big help.

[icebearforpresident]

"Oh, Ice Bear is very happy that you like it."

[He may not show it, but his fur bristles upward at the praise, ears perked up and wiggling a little in place. He's definitely a strange stoic bear.]

"Ice Bear should reevaluate his goals then. Ice Bear wants what's best for brothers in the end. Money is never a bad thing." [The questioning continues.] "What is life like where Tyrion is from? Is it exciting? Enjoyable?"
