“Hi, you’re Eliza?” Based on the description that he was going off of, this was her. But there was something- off about the room, but had specifically narrowed the weirdness down to her after sitting on the stool in front of her. He brushed it off as- just a funny feeling. Maybe she had powers or something and that was what was throwing his instincts off. He wanted to ignore it and get back to the office, so he pushed through it. 

Cooper was known for being straightforward. “D’you have a second? My name’s Cooper Kent. I’m an editor-” assistant editor, “over at the paper. There was an incident here on Saturday night and someone else involved in the story said that you would back up his account. Just doin’ some fact-checking.” ( @elizazcrel )

Had he glimpsed her from afar, he would’ve thought her to be a resident of Heliohapt. As it were, closer inspection refuted his original assumption and reminded him, however much he didn’t like to think of it, that this realm was no longer his own. There were people here from different dimensions, bringing with them a multitude of different languages, cultures, and lifestyles. 

…It was nostalgic, in a way, but not entirely in a way he liked.

Still, she looked to be more at ease here than he was (and likely ever would be); perhaps she would be able to lend him some aid and save him time.

“Where are the libraries?“

Surely, even a place like this would have one.

A job was something he should probably start looking for, but he wasn’t exactly sure where to start. He’d gone to university to become an archaeologist, but he was fairly certain that wasn’t a job he could acquire here. Or if it was, it was definitely going to be hard to come by. Sitting at a cafe in thought of possibly coming up with a plan or something while there, he observed his surroundings. The place was rather packed, considering it was a lunch rush, and he couldn’t help but noticing that a woman was looking for somewhere to sit. Considering he wasn’t exactly doing anything other than taking up space by now, he stood waving her down to get her attention.

“Excuse me---ma’am! You can sit here!”

“I’m simply taking up space by now, if you plan to order and stay you may take my place.”
