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!))

Don't worry Rocket, you may have a chance to argue with her later, especially after that quip about her and Miles seemingly being weak. If anything, she can prove it later to him if they get into trouble on the battlefield.

The topic about augmentations almost goes over her head, but it sounds similar to a specific incident she's heard about back home, but that's not important to the conversation right now. This is about helping Vaclav, not spending time talking about her world.

"These augmentations aren't weapons, right? People use them as a replacement for lost limbs and such?" She just wants to make sure that this whole plan isn't secretly helping the bad guys, even though Candela doesn't believe that the be the case.

The 10th Doctor is now in her sights, and she's trying desperately to ignore the fact that there's food dripping on the table why must you be like Spark so much Doctor, but if he's offering help, she won't refuse. "I'll leave the teleportation work to you, Doctor. If anything, I'm better at providing the muscle and power anyways."

"Nice meeting everyone!" The Doctor's voice perks up when he is introduced to everyone at the table. "And I suppose our friend with the very impressive robot arms is the one we're helping. And with a story like that well...." The Doctor just holds his tongue in his mouth as his hearts sink. Things like this draw The Doctor in like mouths to a flame. "...I cannot just sit here and eat beans on toast without lending a hand." It shows that he is concerned for what they are about to get into. "Besides you lot need some adult supervision."

The Doctor can't help the beans are falling off his piece of toast and on to the table. It is just the sad nature of bread with anything wet. But he is enjoying the free food, and he is never one to turn down nibbles. He likes nibbles.

But as he looks down at the tablet, he listens to everyone around him as he thinks of how to formulate a plan. Then again visiting an alien universe is filled with many unknowns, and that includes everything. "I have a great big teleporting truck, though I was able to get here in it, I just need to see how it works in conjunction with a portal." He speaks proudly of the TARDIS that is sitting outside on a corner near the cafe.

"Though we might want to discuss things there while I figure out how to get us there."

Miles opens his mouth to suggest that, maybe he and Rocket could sneak ahead of everybody. This teen hero can be really stealthy when he aims to be and the Racoon is great with tech, but ... Rocket, doesn't really sneak so much as blast everything in front of him to little bits.

As far as he knows.

"I don't suppose you've got schematics for this place? Maybe there's a secret entrance or a tunnel system that could bypass a lot of the things that go blam?"

Rocket stuffs another paw full of eggs into his mouth and he goes to grab hold of Vaclav's three fingered hand. "So we're gonna liberate a whole bunch of these things? Don't look like no military weapon to me." But metal parts to make into things like bombs are always a plus in Rocket's book.

He then looks back to Miles as he swallows his food. "Good point, kid. Or we can always go blastin' through the front door."

"But still, any sc'matics for us to use? Or are we gonna go in blastin'?"

"They're a little bit of both," Vaclav is honest when it comes to answering Candela's question about augs. And he looks at Rocket when the raccoon takes hold of his three fingered hand. And he looks a little slighted at the thought that he can't break a nose or two with his augmented hands. "Hey, hey, hey, now I've busted a few faces before with these hands. And I can lift a lot more with them than I ever remember."

He looks to The Doctor and then to Miles as he goes to look for his plate that was taken over by Rocket. He sighs. "I don't have them, no, but I think we shouldn't have any problem with getting some schematics once we get there."

"And maybe some of us should stay back." Koller suggests. "I'm not a hacker or a fighter, and someone will need to give you direction." Vaclav looks between those who are with him, and he gets to his feet. "But Doctor man is right, we should meet somewhere else. If we're going to do this meet me tomorrow at a warehouse in the industrial zone."
