[poppies_place]

No, this is not Hugh Jackman. This is a cheap clone knockoff of the man. He goes by Fred

"Food's nice. Ain't real hungry an' 'm broke, but I'll keep it in mind."

[poppies_place]

He turned the grin to the girl, the slight uncertainty of the expression suggesting that he's not totally confident around other people. "It's just plain stuff, pancakes, burgers, poutin."

[victormakesart]

"That sounds awesome." Warm smile. :D "I'll hafta check it out."

[poppies_place]

"Great." His grin widened. "Oh, are you disturbed at all by mutants?"

[deathwithanankh]

"What sort of food?" Death asks. "Food's good!"

((Does it keep out anthropomorphic personifications of death out?))

[poppies_place]

"Just plain stuff," he said, his forehead creasing slightly as his shyness tried to rear its ugly head. "Pancakes, burgers, poutin, homemade ice cream."

((Might make her a little normal. But I don't think it'd keep her out. She's not undead or demonic, or even magical in herself, eh?))

[deathwithanankh]

"Sounds delicious! Where is it?"

((Paranormal, possibly, but certainly not undead or demonic. She doesn't really have magic powers. Except...you know...traveling to her realm and all.))

[poppies_place]

"On the edge of nowhere." He rubbed the back of his neck. "Literally. If you've got a teleporter I can give you the coordinates."

((I think she's good to go.))

[vicioussweetie]

"Good food is always good. It wouldn't be good food otherwise." She smirks a bit. "You're going to get a lot of customers, what with all the starved-looking Japanese boys who wander through."

[poppies_place]

One eyebrow went up slightly as he tried to work that out, but then he blinked and looked alert again. "Starved-looking Japanese boys?"

[vicioussweetie]

"You're new here, aren't you? I really need to get those brochures made..."

She's a little rambly today.

"So what's your name? I'm Ali."

[poppies_place]

"New here, but not new to nexxi." He tilted his head just a little. "Fred Jackman."

[thebasi]

Seven-year-old human girl wandering by; looks normal, except her shadow is shifting and stretching in ways it shouldn't. 'Where's the edge of nowhere~? Is it in the Nexus?'

[poppies_place]

"Not this nexus." He watched the shadow warily. "It usually shows up along out of the way stretches of highway."

[thebasi]

His wary look gets a surprised one from her.

'Oh.' She looks disappointed, then hopeful. 'Is there an anti-violence field there, too? 'Cause I can go if there's an AV field.' Maybe.

[poppies_place]

"There's something that keeps out demons, undead, and makes magic not work." He turned his attention from the shadow to the little girl that it was attached to.

[sooraya]

She lifts her head and smiles; realizing that she's rather hungry. Her fingers travel to the deep pocket in her robe and she pulls out a few dollars.

"Excuse me," she says politely, meeting the man's eyes with a cheerful smile hidden behind a veil (although the smile is writ in her eyes). "What is your diner's policy... on pork?"

She was learning more and more about cultures that weren't her own. But pork was out of the question.

[poppies_place]

His eyebrows rose slightly in uncertainty. "Well, I don't usually have any. But we serve dinosaur, and chicken."

[sooraya]

Another smile. "Chicken sounds rather appetizing. But dinosaur? Where is this diner?"

Sooraya isn't quite used to the multiverse yet.

[poppies_place]

"On the edge of nowhere." He smiled himself, the expression apologetic and reassuring.
