"I'm not a tourist-- well, I suppose I am, but only technically. I'm Zoe. Zoe Heriot. I was looking for equipment to improve my prototype."

"So I suppose you have any grand ideas on what happened at the factory? Sharp as a whip, you are. Blimey, it must have been decades since I last saw your face."

“I don’t see any monster lines…. not a single one.”

"I don't need your pity or your 'pleasantries.'" Rather, he was doing the stranger a service; despite his ire, the only tangible threat was the rumble of his voice, thundering from the entrance of the manor. "Get out of my sight. Go on, leave!"

"Prove? How can one's palms prove one's worth?" The beast scoffed, peering at his own palm in disbelief. "What next? Are you going to sell your wares, too?"

"I am always happy to help your mother, but she's overestimated my pull at UNIT nowadays. I'm more UNIT mascot than UNIT insider. I had to pull a lot of strings to get her these passes. As for you and your friends, minors are not allowed."

His fists clenched until his knuckles blanched white. Steadying a breath, Luke stepped forward, jabbing a thumb towards the brigadier. "Let's get things straight: if you're really the hero Mum said you are, why are you choosing to back down now?"

“should i do the rocket? or the frog?" cat walks by, eyeing the box of the toy, while sebastian tries to make a decision. "hm..."

He can't help but feel a little awkward. Standing there not by chance, just in the wrong place at the right time. His hands clutched at the strings of his hoodie, eyes flickering from the lightbright and then back at the stranger. "Nice cat. What's its name?"

The problem with these excursions, however, lie in the energy it took to hop from dimension to dimension. It wasn't something he could just do liberally, or on a whim. It took a lot of preparation. He wished he could bring someone with him, because the jump left him exhausted, with a hard time moving. Usually he brought snacks in a pocket dimension, but this jump had been exceedingly tedious- or maybe it was just that he had not fully recovered his energy from a previous fight. So reaching into the pocket dimension was a no go. But there were people passing by. Nehebkau changed his armor to fit in more with the people, and out of the alley he strode, trying to get the attention of the first person he saw. "Excuse me," Ausra said shyly, "Do you know where a young man might find a snack?"

"It depends on what you're looking for. Cesari's is particularly favoured for their coffee and pastries, but if you wanted a more rounded meal, then my restaurant, 'The Wandering Star', is an excellent choice." God knows he could use more customers. Especially during the idle summertime when the festivities are only beginning to pick up.

High on the walls he thought he could make out a figure, at first he hesitated before raising a hand to wave to the shadowy figure along the wall. "Hello!"

His thoughts were interrupted, causing him to raise a hand, motioning the stranger towards them. "What are you doin' all the way out here?" His greeting is clipped, despite the smile. "Ain't seen anyone out here for a few days now."
