Gordon had been stepping into the restaurant where he's been working lately to pay the bills. This... is not it. It's a lot nicer than a crappy restaurant in mid-90's Alphabet City
( Read more... )
Miniver spots the door open and shut, and gives a shy wave to the stranger from a nearby booth -- if only for the sake of not seeming weird should the guy notice him watching.
Gordon notices the wave, and after a moment more of glancing about suspiciously, walks over to the booth.
"This bar wasn't here yesterday."
It's not quite a question, but close. There's a chance he's losing his mind, though he's not sure what opportunistic infection would cause a hallucination of a bar where there shouldn't be one.
"Oh, did it turn up in your broom closet or something?" Miniver should probably strike Gordon as exactly what he is: a hippy poet, with bellbottoms, ratty jacket, and a quill pen stuck in his hair. "Yeah, it showed up where my apartment used to be. Welcome and congratulations for escaping the shithole, assuming you're from Earth, which you sorta look like. Don't kill anyone or fuck anyone inside the bar proper. End of rules. Want a drink?"
Gordon jumps. Oh, yes, this would be a startled Gordon. He'd been at Angel's funeral not that long ago. Seeing her sitting by the fire is... about as unnerving as you'd expect.
Not to mention Angel's looking... notably better than the last time they would have seen each other. "...Damn, we're getting a regular party in here, aren't we?"
Gordon walks over slowly, his expression utterly perplexed. He's not going to decide right here and now that he's gone crazy. But it seems like a reasonable conclusion at this point in time.

"Actually, it used to be a restaurant... just not nearly as nice." There's a pause as he considers. "There was some doubt I'm from Earth?"

He takes a drink of beer while watching the new guy.

Tactful, he is not.

He's not panicking, which is good. A little unsettled and consequently pissy, but not panicking.

...Depending on when in 1997 it is for Gordon, seeing Angel around might be something of a shock.
(OOC: I'll likely have to call slowtime in about 45 minutes, but yeah. XD)

There's a former stripper attached to his shoulders now.
Hey, didn't Mimi go missing?

Insert surprised blinking here.
"I haven't seen you in... a while."

'Cause she just saw him, like, two days ago.
"Uhm....what date is it for you, then?"
