[OPEN] I Jumped So High I Touched The Clouds
WHO: Karen Page & you!
WHAT: Coffee & exploration. Possibly hitting the Expo?
WHEN: Mid-morning
WHERE: Near the McAran Building
NOTES/WARNINGS: None as yet.
Karen hit the button on her CALL device and in the blink of an eye, she was no longer standing in her living room. Now she was standing on the square outside a towering skyscraper in what looked like the set of a god-damned Star Trek movie. There were flying cars over head, and a -- was that a satellite hanging in the atmosphere above them?
She's just gonna gawk and spin in place for a few minutes.
You can also find her standing in line buying a cup of coffee in a nearby café.

Starter for Dave (dragonring)
She's got a backpack over one arm and she's looking up in awe at the Tower, at the flying cars, at the -- what the heck is that thing? Is that a damned satellite? "Holy shit."
She also set her CALL device to broadcast her location to him, so she'd be easy to find.

"Quite a view, isn't it?" He asks with a smile and sympathy in his tone.

She tucks a strand of hair behind her ear and sticks out her hand to shake his.

She thought you'd need clearances for something like that. But no, it's probably a mall or something, and now she sounds like a total idiot.
"God, I'm sorry, I am still -- taking it all in. I literally have no idea what I'm doing, if you can't already tell."

"Hey," he starts off with, since he's trying not to be a creep.
no subject
"...You're..." There's no air in the word. She tries again. "You're..."
He's Steve Rogers. Captain America. He stopped the Chitauri Invasion like a week after they brought him out of the ice. He's -- okay Karen, he knows who he is. Maybe he'd like to get by?
It takes a moment for that thought to register before she blinks again, and says, "Sorry, here, lemme get -- out of your way." She backs full force into the bagel case with a hard thunk.

As promised, he makes his way to the cafe and, once inside, he looks around for her. As he generally does with his long sleeve shirts, the sleeves are rolled to the middle of his forearm, which makes the red metallic right arm extremely visible. It almost looks like he's wearing part of the suit (and in some ways he is), gauntlet and all, but it's his arm. Which he knows it's one of the differences between himself and the Tony(s) that both Steves seemed to know, so now he can't help but wonder if it's the same case for Karen as well. Was he the Tony Stark from her timeline, or was she also from another universe that wasn't his own?
Either way, he was looking forward to meeting her. When he spots a blonde that seems to recognize him, Tony smiles and walks over to her. "Karen?"
no subject
She holds out a hand in greeting. "God it's so nice of you to meet me. I'm sorry, I already ordered, did you want me to -- I can get you something?"
no subject
He doesn't mind it, though. His stance remains cool and relaxed, and he grins as he politely shakes his head. "I appreciate the offer, but that's perfectly okay. It's a pleasure to meet you, Karen. Let me just ask for a cup of coffee, yeah? Excuse me for one sec."
This is probably his fourth cup of the day, but hey, who's counting. Tony loves caffeine and, after he places his order (black coffee, no fixings), he goes back to sit at Karen's table. "So, how are you finding everything? Still weirded out by this whole thing?"
