Time for a big ol' Nexus Block party

[sumarusfinest]

On a sleepy summer morning a wonderful smell begins to waft throughout the Nexus. For those familiar with this place there can only be one explanation but for those new faces to the nexus this may be a strange thing: seeing so many people flocking toward the sweet and savory scents perfuming the Nexus.

There are a few tables set out this morning in the Plaza in front of a small cafe loaded with several carafes of coffee, a myriad of 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. It's always satisfying to put one of these on and see the throngs of different people stuck in line together to get their food and find a place to sit among the tables and couches nearby.

"Right then, is anyone hungry? I've got more than enough here for everyone so please mingle among yourselves or feel free to ask me anything you'd like."


((OOC: This thread is ALL ABOUT threadjacking and hopping. I encourage folks to tag on each other's comments and mingle rather than to reply only to me. This is a huge opportunity to have your characters interact with people they wouldn't have talked to before. Branch out! Meet new people! Scheme new schemes! Steal the last chocolate croissant!))

"Made it out of what?" Aslan asks, a little curious. Is there danger he is not aware of? Something to be warned about?

[big_bad_sheriff]

That gives Bigby some pause. "The Homelands. When the Adversary attacked." He's heard of places in the Homelands that never saw invasion, but he hadn't thought it likely to ever meet any. "Hordes of goblins and trolls, wooden soldiers, and shit like that. They never reached your borders?"

[thewiselion]

"Not to Narnia." But Aslan is cautious to learn of potential danger. "We fought different wars. Different enemies."

[big_bad_sheriff]

"Huh." Bigby's not sure he'd call that lucky. But it's... something. "Every Fable in Fabletown, and the Farm, were forced to leave the Homelands because of that bastard."

[thewiselion]

"Perhaps it is something we must be cautious of. A reason we met?"

[big_bad_sheriff]

Bigby's not really into the whole destiny thing, but there's no point in antagonizing those that do, not when it's harmless that is. "Maybe." Either way, this could be a chance to warn the lion and help him avoid potential disaster. "If his forces ever do find you, don't underestimate 'em. If you need to get your people out, do it as fast as you can."

[thewiselion]

Aslan will take the warning quite seriously. He only wants what is best for his people. His land.

"Thank you. For letting me know. We can make an escape plan."
