CALL.net : VIDEO | UN: Hawkguy

[weekend_avenger]

[Hi! here's a crooked camera angle of Clint, he sort of looks like he just woke up-- or just had an exciting brawl with a box of bandaids. Either way it's not a good look.

He scratches at at least a day's worth of scruff on his chin and reaches to straighten his CALL device out... it's still crooked but A for effort, right?]

So this lets me talk to all you guys in that crazy city, right? Cities... place, wold? I kinda got the run down -- and had a look around? Also pretty sure I almost had to fight a dragon but...

Um. Hi, I'm Clint and I'm the new guy?

Where do I get coffee around here?

[ A rich, accented female voice answers him: ]

Tomorrowland has a nice deli - not dissimilar from the sort you might find in New York. Their coffee is good, their BLTs are exceptional.

[ This is just too good for her to resist, okay? ]

[weekend_avenger]

[Except he kinda knows an Asgardian accent when he hears one, and she doesn't sound like either Sif or Val.]

I'm pretty sure I'm still in D&D land, so if I can figure out how to get there from here...

[story_and_teller]

[ There are a lot of ladies in Asgard though. 8D ]

Hold on a moment, I'll send you a map.

[ True to her word, a map - drawn on a napkin in spidery thin lines - is sent moments later, several routes drawn out in red and green. ]

Green is relatively safe, red is not.

[weekend_avenger]

[That he even knows a few Asgardians is weird enough. And the question is sort of on the tip of his tongue, but he's in like crazy-go-nuts world, so maybe there's just people here like that?]

Where does red go? [Because he has to ask...]

[story_and_teller]

Places.

[ The smile in her voice is practically audible. ]

[weekend_avenger]

[Oh great.]

Okay so I'm new here and gonna be naive, but like, bad 'not coffee' places?

[story_and_teller]

That's one way of putting it.

[weekend_avenger]

Okay vague. Awesome. I'll just stick to the road then.

[story_and_teller]

Vague? Maybe. I thought I was agreeing with you.

[weekend_avenger]

I was kinda prompting for more details, without trying to sound like i'm lost as hell.

Cause I'm lost as hell. [There's probably a real map on this thing somewhere, he hasn't poked at all the buttons yet. Maybe he should have paid more attention when he arrived.]

[story_and_teller]

See now, you shoulda just said that. Honesty will get you everywhere, Hawkguy. Tell y'what. You meet me at the big green X, buy me a coffee and a snack, and I'll explain the map. Maybe even answer some other questions.

Hey. [Harry'll give a little half-wave to the camera.] Welcome to the SFC. I'm Harry.

As far as I know, the City of Romance is like... coffee shop central. That's probably your best bet. Assuming you can settle on which one to go to, that is.

[weekend_avenger]

Yeah I guess I can swing that.

They need to put up some of those 'you are here' maps, because I kinda feel like I'm in a theme park.

A very dangerous theme park.

[story_and_teller]

In a way, you are. But that's half the fun, really.

[weekend_avenger]

[Oh a face! That's better than anonymous voices being vaguely vague ]

Oh man there's a Romance city too? What's that like? I feel like that's something I have to put on a nice shirt for.

[weekend_avenger]

What's the other half of the fun?

[story_and_teller]

Meeting people, learning their stories, seeing how they get along around here...

[ Ferreting out secrets, blackmail, bribery, backstabbing, bacon... ]

[weekend_avenger]

[That's a lot of B's. ]

Oh yeah, I guess. How long have you been around this place?

[story_and_teller]

Oh, sometimes it feels like forever. But that's just a feeling. More like a few months, I guess. Time does get a bit interesting around here in some places though.

[goblinjr]

[Harry stinks at being anonymous and vague anyway.]

You could probably walk around naked over there and I don't think anyone would care. It's, uh... I dunno. It's pretty all over the place. It can go from cozy and casual to fancy and romantic in a heartbeat. There's like, a comfy little park, a whole avenue dedicated to fashion, fancy restaurants, and... well. Like I said, a bunch of coffee shops. It's a meet cute staple or something.

A dragon? Are you stuck at Sorcery? [Once you get used to the place it's not that bad, but Dave wouldn't wish it as a first stop for anyone modern, and that's what this Clint guys looks like, judging by the clothes and the bandaids.] The best coffee and food is at Romance, but if you don't wanna deal with the awkwardness, Carmichael's at Tomorrow is pretty cool.

[weekend_avenger]

I think I read about that in the brochure. [Well he's not getting any awaker without that coffee.]

Okay, blue X, got it.

[story_and_teller]

It shouldn't take too long.

[ She's trying for reassuring. ]

[weekend_avenger]

I don't have a good track record with hot coffee and being naked, so I think I'll pass on that one. [TMI Clint...]

But at least there aren't monsters in that city? Right?

[weekend_avenger]

It's kinda where I ended up, yeah. This, uh, inn doesn't have a coffee maker. Or... electricity? [But everyone seems to think his bow is awesome, so he likes this place.

And don't worry Dave, he always kind of looks like this.]

I'll make a note, cool futurey city sounds like a safer bet.
