Hello, visitors! I hope you're all having a good time in the City and finding plenty of interesting people to talk to. If this is your first time here, try not to worry too much. You'll get to go back home soon and it'll be like you were never gone.

If you need anything at all, feel free to swing by the Welcome Center. We've got coats and warm clothes if you aren't dressed for the weather or if you ended up in the fountain and food for anyone who's hungry--courtesy of the Blue Light, so make sure you visit there because it's an amazing place. I'm so sorry that we couldn't find beds for everyone who was asking last night; that'll be something to work on for the next time this happens.

But like I said, if you need anything, stop by or give me a shout here. My name's Penny and I'll do what I can to help out and answer your questions.

And if we've met before, I'd really appreciate it if you'd take a moment to say hello.

[The Welcome Center is only a block or so off of the main square, clearly marked by a big blue sign. Penny isn't the only one working, but she'd be more than happy to lend a hand where it's needed.]

[ooc: Open to anything at all! (Including backdating. Um. Pretend this was up earlier.]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[Dean knows where he's at. He remembers everything about the City and he heads straight for the welcome center. He could use some food and a place to rest. Things are getting a little better back home, but he's still perpetually exhausted. He pushes the door open and walks inside, pulling up to a stop when he sees Penny there, a smile sneaking across his face.]

Didn't think I'd see you still here.

Dean!

[She drops everything she's doing--but not literally, since she's doing dishes and dishes are breakable--to give Dean a tight, enthusiastic hug.]

Where else would I be?

[Dean doesn't hug very many people, but when he does, he does it right. He hugs her tight, picking her up off her feet a moment before setting her down.]

Some of us got sent home.

[That gets a laugh out of her. Penny's so happy to see Dean.]

Well, it's a good thing I didn't get sent anywhere. How're you doing, Dean? How's home treating you?

Little better than it usually does. [Which isn't saying much.]

How's the City treating you?

But you're in one piece, so that's something.

[Wow, Dean. How to answer that...]

Oh, you know... same as ever. Curses, people coming and going. You missed some really interesting zombie action.

Yeah, that's definitely something.

[He furrows his brow, listening. He remembers all too well what the city is like.]

Sounds like I missed a real party. You got any beer around here?

That bit about falling into the fountain, I'm afraid, is entirely applicable. Have you still any warm clothes, or have all the other reluctant new arrivals gotten ahold of them first?

There're plenty of clothes to go around. If you want to come by, we can see if there's anything that'll fit you.

I'll be right along, then. I shouldn't like to continue standing out here in this weather.

[And several minutes later he makes his way into the Welcome Center, his manner of attire, drenched though it may be, marking him quite evidently as someone not from this time.]

[The redhead approaches him with a towel and a smile as soon as he enters.]

Hey! Welcome to the City. Sorry about the fountain.

Well, it's hardly your fault, is it, unless you put that dreadful fountain there, in which case, I shall begin blaming you at once.

[He gives her a smile, too.]

I guess I can't take the blame for that one. That's on the deities.

The deities? Are you saying God put that fountain there for the sole purpose of humiliating new visitors?

Danke for the information, frau Penny! I-I think I'll be needing to dry off my clothes.

You're welcome, and not a problem! I'm sure there're some dry clothes here that'll fit.

I hope so. I'm a bit.. bulky.

It's nice to meet you though, frau Penny. I'm Jeager.

I'm sure that won't be a problem.

It's great to meet you too, Jeager. How're you liking the City so far?

It's a very pretty City und most people seem really willing to help out. I like it.

It definitely has both of those things going for it. I like it here, too.

Vhy is the stay only temporary, if you don't mind me asking?

I think we might be overdressed.

[Says one dwarf followed by a nod of the other after they tentatively enter.]

[Well. That's the sort of thing a girl doesn't see every day.]

Hey there. Can I help you guys?

Tell me you've been bad.

Huh?

[Alas, Penny 2.0 still doesn't know Angela too well. She can see that baby, though.]

Sorry, sorry--Angela, right?
