The roads in Kansas are, right now, the best kept roads in the world. The road approaching the Cooper Farm is no exception, and for a driver who's been struggling with a lot of snowed in roads before crossing Safe Zone borders, it's a welcome relief

Journey leaps out first, followed more slowly by Jordan. While the bloodhound rejoices in the open air, burying herself in snow, the human smiles and watches her and looks to Ai-ling with the same smile. Fondness and happiness and approval.

Mostly for being out of the car finally.

In a few weeks time, Ai-Ling suspects that she'll have issues with sitting in such a cramped space for so long. But not at the moment. She's short and fat and quite comfortable with that fact right now.

"That building's bigger," she remarks, pointing at the bunker. "I guess they expanded."

Jordan follows the pointing, shifting her gaze from the bunker to the house to the cruise ship in the back, all lightly topped with snow. She smiles a little but it's uneasy. This is the only settlement she's really seen in this world, that wasn't filled with abused natives often trying to kill them.

It's weird, isn't it?

Ai-Ling left Journey to have a fun time, and checks the back seat. Her husband, lazy sod that he is, is asleep. So she's going to get a bag out of the trunk herself.

"There was food in the kitchen last time I was here. I was told I could help myself."

[Clearly either Babs or Uncle Iroh or both should show up sometime. BUT WHEN?]

A little after the girls have gone inside, Miki yawns, rolls over in the back seat, stretches, and blinks. They've stopped moving.

Good, then he won't get carsick if he looks out the windows. (It is hard when your first time in a car is on Shatterverse's roads and you're not used to going faster than you can run!)

Oh. They're here.

He unfolds himself from the car and wanders inside, a tall scruffy young man in Water Tribe blue with a wide smile and light brown hair, and nearly trips over a red-haired lady in a wheelchair.

"Oh! Oops. Sorry."

[twiceahero]

The red-haired lady in the wheelchair looks up at him with a quirked eyebrow. "Are you now?" she asks with a slight grin.

[littlemiki]

Miki grins back at her, wide and bright. "Yep." He considers this. "And kinda embarrassed. I probably should have been watching where I was going."
