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!))

He bows a little. "I have no doubt you'll see a great deal more, in the Nexus. Though I, for one, try to ensure such power is used responsibly by those under my command."

'Try' being the operative word, especially where his little brother is concerned. Stratos flicks his fingers and lets the little orb of light drift up to float about somewhere over their heads. It's quite harmless if Katherine wants to try and touch it, and in any case will dissipate shortly.

"I fear my magic tends more to the demands of the battlefield than to amusing demonstrations," he explains, a little apologetically.

SHe watches the orb float above them for a moment, mesmerized.

"You use your magic to fight?" Katherine can only imagine how deadly that could end up being, and she frowns. "I would much rather--if I had your powers--use it for fun and games."

"There is some wisdom in that," he concedes. "There is nothing ignoble in seeking to make the world more joyful. But some of us must follow a harsher path to safeguard that world. The first battlemages among my people took up their art in order to protect us from enemies who enslaved us for generations."

"Then I can see the value in it, if magic managed to set your people free," she replies, sounding very serious.
