[Feel free to use this as a catch-all for whatever your character might conceivably be doing here. Are they loitering outside? Delivering supplies/food? Helping improve the place because god it certainly needs it? Cooking? Socializing? Eating? Just wanting to booze it up? GO WILD.]

[There are nominal rules but if you don't get caught you don't have to deal with them, so you do you.]

[Pyrrha, already seated inside, had been looking for familiar faces among the crowd. She turns her head upward when she hears the doors opening- and it's CT! It gets her to rise out of her seat to go meet her at the door...]

CT! How are...

[But, as she grows closer, she starts to notice something CT hasn't yet.]

I... are you okay?

[tuskenlancer]

[ The sound of her name is enough to bring CT back to reality, and she jerks a little, staring blankly at Pyrrha for a second before shaking her head. ]

S-Sorry, I'm -

[ She turns her head a little, wiping her face quickly before turning back to Pyrrha with an embarrassed smile. ]

Sorry. I'm fine.

[tokenflavortownie]

[Nothing worse than seeing one of her friends shedding tears and attempting to tell her that everything's alright. It doesn't sit well with Pyrrha in the slightest.

...Sit.]

Oh, uh, well if you're just coming in, how about you come sit with me? There's a few seats free over at my table?

[and it's the perfect place to Talk]

[tuskenlancer]

[ She doesn't trust herself to answer right away, so she nods gratefully, following Pyrrha quietly across the room. Once they reach the table, she smiles again, relieved this time. ]

...Thanks.

[tokenflavortownie]

It's the least I can do. Have a seat.

[As soon as she does, Pyrrha sits as well. She was just waiting, so this is hardly a bother.]

Have you been to "Denny" before? It's rather new, from what I've heard.

[tuskenlancer]

[ CT sits and shakes her head, grateful for the distraction. For any distraction. ]

No, this is my first time here. It...

It's not what I was expecting, I guess.

[tokenflavortownie]

I admit it... wasn't what I was expecting when I first walked in here either. It's certainly not a Space Arby's.

[Haha... jokes are good, right]

[tuskenlancer]

[ CT had never ended up going to Space Arby's, having been inconveniently dead at the time, but she recognizes the reference enough to smile, at least. Jokes are better than actually talking about feelings, at least. ]

You've been here a few times, then?

[tokenflavortownie]

[It's unfortunate that Pyrrha never had the time to treat her dead friends to a final Space fast food trip. But she knew they all had places to be, things to do. She knew it better than some people.]

A couple. It was surprising at first, but there's some nice people working here. And the food is nice.

[If you like eggs.]

[tuskenlancer]

I'm mostly looking for a little variety.

[ Catching and/or finding all your own food is hard, and CT isn't an especially talented cook. ]

I heard...it's all free? Is that right?

[tokenflavortownie]

Yes, I think so. [nods!]

I... can't really imagine what we would pay it with, otherwise. There aren't any Lien in this world. Or space dollars.

[tuskenlancer]

Bartering?

[ She shrugs. She's not complaining. If people want to run a restaurant and hand out free food, that's fine with her. ]

I guess it gives them something to do, at least.
