Is this thing working? I guess so...Okay, so I got this weird message on my cell phone that said I was supposed to go save the world by collecting shards? No offense to you guys, but your world - this world? - has some seriously weird magic. I dunno, it's like I'm in some shounen anime or something

Really? But TV always said they were like the ramen stands of America... if you've been to a hot dog vendor, then you've really experienced a lot.

[starredjack]

Yeah? I already know ramen's the best! I'm just gonna try everything I can. Right after the hot dogs, I'm gonna get some pizza and something called "fried green tomatoes."

[willofjustice]

Hot dogs? o.o Are they really the specialty?

Ah -- are you new, then?

[starredjack]

According to TV, yeah.

You've got it! The novelty'll wear off - probably - but I am so going to get those hot dogs first. Oh, right! I'm Kukai.

[willofjustice]

I've never had one. o.o If they're the specialty, then I should definitely give it a try!

I'm Amelia. ^^ It's nice to meet you!

[starredjack]

We'll try it together! It's always more fun when you go with a friend.

Nice to meet you too. How long have you been here, anyway?

[super_seiyan]

Now we've been compared to bad sci-fi movies, video games, and shounen anime. I'm sensing a theme here.

[starredjack]

... You know, I can kinda see the bad sci-fi movie. Except there haven't been any zombies yet. And you can't have a bad sci-fi film without the zombies and aliens crashing the party.

[super_seiyan]

Yes, we do not talk about aliens. >.> People get kind of irritated about that.

Zombies, though... I dunno, will you take freaky shadow creatures?

[starredjack]

Why not? They're all guys in rubber suits anyways when they're not claiming to be from Mars.

Works for me. You've got them in all the lame movies - and my life - too.

[wwiiflyingace]

...Well, as reactions go, that's refreshingly different.

Hot dogs are America's specialty, huh? I'll join you.

[starredjack]

What's the use in being upset? This is America! Home of good food and fast cars!

The more the merrier! What's your name?

[wwiiflyingace]

I never heard of it before I landed in it, so I'll just have to take your word.

Nida. You?

[starredjack]

Really? You're not from Earth, then?

Kukai Souma. Pleased to meetcha!

[ihaveafeeling]

...I can't say that hot dogs were my first thought upon finding myself in America.

[starredjack]

But it's not a bad thought, right? Come on, I'd rather joke about hot dogs than angst needlessly about "woe is me, I'm in a new world."

[ihaveafeeling]

Who said anything about angst or woe? Hot dogs are just a bit overrated.

[starredjack]

No way. You've gotta be kidding me.
