I. Wyver

For someone as well-versed in the ways of the subway as Matt is, it's easy enough to get around on the train system. So he takes advantage of it to visit Wyver, as well. He's been told there are dragons here. So far he hasn't run into any, but he keeps his head cocked, listening for -- he's not sure what, exactly. What noises do dragons make? A hiss, maybe? At least he'd be able to feel the change in temperature if they breathed fire near him. Maybe even before. Even after twenty-five years, almost, of adjusting to his senses, apparently there are things that can still throw him.

He and Danny live in Olympia right now, though Danny said he'd be happy to move, so he might as well explore a bit. He walks slowly, sweeping his cane out in front of him to make sure he doesn't hit anyone (or anything) while he adjusts to the new sounds and smells. New York he knew like the back of his hand. This is all new territory, and it's a little frightening.

II. Olympia

When he first arrived in Olympia, he'd stayed pretty close to the house he share with his new roommate. But what little research he'd done on it had sounded interesting, and he's eager to explore. To push his own boundaries a little. He's already so far outside of Hell's Kitchen, he might as well.

Matt finds himself in the marketplace, which is a little disorienting. So many people talking at once, from all different directions. Usually he'd try to count heartbeats to see how many people were around him, but he thought he'd heard two heartbeats from the same place, and that just didn't seem right. But it's a new planet, with new people. And new -- possibly-not-people.

Anything can happen.

Frank is out looking for - of all things - chocolate milk. Or as close as he can get to such a thing on this planet. While he's in line, he spots a familiar face and subtly slips out of his queue to join Matt's. He might smell the chocolate first, but there's leather and gunpowder there too, just like before when they met in the bar.

"Try not to show weakness. They eat that up." Ha-ha. His dad jokes are unparalleled.

[Emori was walking along with a canvas bag, collecting food for the place she shared with Clarke and John. She recognized the man from the network. He looked really, really confused. It took her a second to remember he said he was blind. Emori starts to follow him, because she's not really sure how to make friends.]

Fighting is a little more of a thing here, and with the dragons, it seems like the sort of place Danny waould want to come settle. Truthfully, he still hasn't entirely decided where to settle, and Olympia seems a little more his speed, but it's not bad here.

He's gone off to get some money for some food - likely in a fight in the rings - and when he sees Matt he jogs over to him.

"Hey. How's it going?"

Bucky spends a lot of his time exploring or wandering place he knows. In the months he's been here, he's learned a lot, but he'd been struggling to know who he'd been at all back on Earth and if he's honest, some of the time that he wanders around Olympia, his mind is a million miles away.

He spots Matt in the market easily enough and weaves through a few people to fall into step next to the other man.

"Come here often?" There's humor in his voice as he delivers the cheesy pickup line.

Cheryl breezes by Matt, passing by on her way to a market stall. She turns back a moment and spots him - an unfamiliar face and much more interesting than buying tea.

"Need help finding something?"
