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!))

"My cases? No, my work is much more ordinary. Though I do work in the violent crimes division. It is how I ended up in the wrong place at the wrong time and ended up getting roped into the extermination of demons as my predominant hobby, however."

He gives a slight sigh at that, but there isn't any real regret in his voice. Katsuya helped save his world, and made some very close friends out of the experience. Not to mention those skills have come in rather handy since.

"I have to admit, I do prefer this to ending lives, however." The baking thing.

"Ordinary? I wouldn't call working on violent crimes cases ordinary." Sam knows the type of work isn't the same as it is on TV. Then again, perhaps it is different where Katsuya comes from, and he is living the life of a violent crime TV detective.

Sam eyes his almost finished breakfast and he takes a piece of melon and takes another bite. "I can see how anyone would prefer this to home. That of course depends on what home is." If he knew, Sam is able to relate very much to Katsuya. This is a nice break from anything they have done at home. And with so many friends, they have lost in order to save the billions of people without anyone even noticing it.

And maybe Dean is right. They can use a break. His eyes drift over towards the applications that he has been working on. "So I either take a break, or I do what I can to help out here." But Sam knows a break won't last long for them, and eventually they will be trying to save not only Earth but perhaps even the existence of his own reality.

"But tell me a bit more about the demons of your world."

"What I mean to say is, my day job does not require me to face demons by and large."

There are occasions where the two overlap, but they are surprisingly rare. Most crime he's working on is sadly done to humans by humans. A sad reality of the world they live in. Or most worlds, he'd be willing to venture a guess for. Human nature, while inherently good, does have its darker sides.

"It's a catch-all term for beings of a different plane than my world. I've seen things some Westerners would describe as angels causing the same level of destruction to my world as the vilest of demonic creatures. I no longer distinguish between the two. It is impossible to judge a demon's worth by looks alone. And I've been fooled enough times to be wary of everything non-human who comes my way."

"You aren't wrong when it comes to angels. And boy was I when they first started to show interest in my brother and I. Here I thought they were out there looking after us, and as my brother said, they're a big bag of dicks." Sam knows there are angels who do indeed look after humanity, but he isn't exactly a big fan of God's soldiers.

He takes another fork full of food, and he tries to name the angels who have truly been there for them on one hand. Cas well there is and hopefully will always be Cas. Balthazar, Gabriel, and then there are those who sacrificed themselves for them. And he swallows his food down, and he looks at Katsuya. "I wonder if you have met Lucifer." He asks, and he stops to look around the cafe to see if he can catch site of the familiar looking vessel. But with this many people it is hard to say if the devil is indeed in the room with them.

"The other angels still don't compare to him."
