So... i believe its safe to say that im thoroughly discombobulated!
I mean ...i suppose stuff of this caliber probably happens all the time to big shot superheroes like the x-men, but good gravy it wouldnt hurt to give a fella a decent warning before you go chucking him haphazardly across the whole freakin multiverse!
This wasnt exactly what i haggled for when i said i wanted off my island.
Not that im complaining of course! No siree!!
This place looks like a hoot and i plan on getting up to my elbows in some serious exploring!!
But i guess this summon was sort of like a need for superheroes?
Im not an x-man or an avenger or any of those other spiffy world saving types back home but ive got a whole lot of moxie and reckless bravado!! And i guess id like to help??
[Poor Jake hasn't gone too far past the gates. He's trying not to be nervous, but this is the first time he's been in public since his mutation manifested. What do.]

text;
I will be there in two shakes of a lambs tail!
[And that might be some knocking at the door in an hour or so. He ran off to meet up with Dirk and they got up to shenanigans doing *something* no doubt. Now, he is finally making his way to his apartment.]
action;
she flashes Jake a tiny hesitant smile, nudging the door open a few more inches once she ascertains that he's probably the right person]
Hi! Did you find it ok?
action;
[Though this person sounded really nice and he hoped that everything would be okay. He debated cramming his jacket back on, but scolded himself for being so paranoid. It was pretty obvious no one cared- and Nepeta had mentioned having horns? He was being silly.]
[So there was a mutually hesitant but grinning human standing there at the door with a pair of feathery wings and a complete lack of shirt.]
I did! My best bro has a knack for navigation and he got us both here in no time at all.
Nepeta, right?
action;
[her eyes do flick to the wings (subtly, as best as she can manage) because wow she was pretty sure that humans didn't have them? but there's no flinching away or change in her expression beyond that same hesitant curiosity. it's difficult to be judgemental when you're a gray-skinned horned alien with fangs and yellow eyes. especially one who knows all about being judged.
she tugs her hood in closer unconsciously, a nervous habit she'd never been able to break. then she pulls the door open all the way and backs up a little to give him room to come in. time to get to know the roomie better!]
Come on in! I kept the water hot so you can have some tea with me if you like.
action;
He wondered if she was a mutant, too? Or maybe an alien? Either way, he guessed it didn't matter too much. He shuffled his way inside, visibly perking at the notion of tea. His wings bristled up as well, mirroring the excitement.]
Tea sounds absolutely bully!
action;
[she admits this a little sheepishly as she pads over to the kettle and begins pouring the boiling water into the ready and waiting mugs. it's easier for her to relax in a familiar environment, especially since Jake seems to genuinely be harmless. it's nice.]
action;
[Oh, these were tasty. He comments as much, which just sounds like a garbled noise because he's still eating the cookie.]
action;
I guess the not chocolate ones are good too, huh? That's good to know! I haven't tried them yet.
action;
They're wonderful!
[Ah, so what does he say now. Small talk? Movies always go for small talk, he just has to not make it awkward small talk because THAT always happens in movies and the whole thing would come out awkward. When has small talk worked in movies, come to think of it. Was that a hint?]
So where are you from, then?
action;
[well, that certainly told her he wasn't involved with the game at least. it's a little reassuring to know that he doesn't come with that possible judgement and danger.
she pulls her teabag up and down a few times, chewing on her lip a little. it's obvious that she wants to ask if he's human, but that is really rude and pushy and might go down a road of reciprocation she doesn't want. damn need to be socially cautious.]
