Synopsis: A lot of people really like burgers.
Cast of Characters: Glacier, Rift, Caim Kataras, Mon-El




Glacier has posed:
Maya Caldwell carefully steps inside a Big Belly Burger, moving a little sluggishly. She drags her feet along the carpet, though the rest of her is covered by a pair of blankets, including her head. Only her face is visible. She looks very out of place, but doesn't seem to be making a scene, thankfully. If anyone pays her any close attention, her breath comes out in frigid clouds, even inside the heated building.

Rift has posed:
Big Belly Burger. With burgers of all sizes, even ones sufficient to feed one with a speedster's appetite. She licks her lips as she walks to the front counter. "Hey Nick!" she chirps. "Oh, hi Kitora. The usual?" The redhead Asian girl nods as he punches up three Super Bellybusters and gives a total just uphill of $20. Grinning, she pays and waits for her number to be called... then she glances over at the woman wearing blankets, eyebrow raised. She glances in that direction. "You okay?" she calls softly.

Caim Kataras has posed:
    Caim entered the big belly burger and looks around. A familiar face is seen as he approaches the counter. "I will have bellybuster with fries and a drink." He says as he looks to Kitora and speaks japanese to her. "Good to see you again." He says as he looks around and leans on his cane, appearing to favor that leg.

Glacier has posed:
Maya Caldwell looks over at Kitora as she orders without even standing in line. She lets out a sigh as she waits in line, another puff of cold air coming out. And then Kitora addresses her. She stiffens up. One might even say she -freezes-. "Wh-Oh! Yeah, I'm fine, j-just...uh, cold. No jacket, eheh..." Her voice has a natural stutter to it, rather than a cold chatter.

And then Caim orders, too. The blanket-covered woman sighs, then just boldly approaches the counter. "Uh...j-just a Junior Belly Burger. Or wh-...Whatever the, uh, cheap one is. Just the burger, no fries." After a bit of shuffling, she pulls a $5 bill out of her pocket and slides it across the counter. The cashier visibly jitters as he touches it, then sighs and shoves it in the register before completing the order. Finally holding a receipt, Maya steps back.

Rift has posed:
Kitora Alua gets her three burgers, grinning widely as she looks at them. "Mmmmmmm..." She then glances at Caim, nodding slowly. "Indeed..." She starts to chow down, keeping an eye on Miss Blanket.

Caim Kataras has posed:
    "Make it a second bellybuster." Caim says as he watches the women and leans on his cane. "It is amusing. The girl with the blanket warrents your attention, but the former nazi is regarded as part of the crowd. Not many people lived after underestimating me, girl." He says as he approaches Maya. "Whats your name, child?" He asks curiously.

Glacier has posed:
Maya Caldwell blinks rapidly as Caim approaches her. And while she's definitely fragile of frame, she's just a few inches shy of six feet flat, and her figure's hard to discern from behind her blankets, so it'd be difficult t--Ohh, it was an insult. It suddenly dawns on Maya, and she sighs, breath coming out in a frosty cloud. "Uh, S-Sarah. Why?"

Rift has posed:
Kitora Alua sighs audibly. "Well, a villain who's not making a nuisance isn't as attention-grabbing as a person in distress.. who seems to be breating frost," she mutters to Caim as she sighs, rubbing her forehead as she finishes her first large burger.

Glacier has posed:
Maya Caldwell inhales sharply, then shoots a quick "Shh!" at Kitora. Maya's number is suddenly called, and she shuffles off to grab her dinky kid's meal burger. She steps back over to Kitora, pale arms visible as she holds her tray, just about the only skin she's showing. "B-Be quiet about that, please!" She sets her tray on a table and slowly sits down.

Mon-El has posed:
    It's almost New Year's Day in Times Square, so despite the frigid weather, lots of people from around the country and even the world have gathered in New York City to spend the holiday watching fireworks and parades, as well as shopping or other recreational activities.

    As such, it is rather crowded today in this particular burger joint nestled in a corner of the LED-adorned square, employees scurrying about in an effort to keep up with the constant influx of patrons. Quite a line has formed since the others had arrived, nearly reaching the door. So why is Mon-El here? Well a lot of people have been telling him about how great human food is! And it seems this is one of the more popular vendors, given the large number of customers in here.

    As soon as he walks in, Maya definitely draws his attention, given her unusual appearance and...well, temperature. It's certainly not normal for a human, but maybe she's one of those mutants...or other unusual human? The Daxamite scans her almost reflexively, partly out of concern and partly out of curiosity. He recognizes Kitora and Caim from earlier, though he doesn't know them well enough yet to make any friendly gestures.

Caim Kataras has posed:
    Caim just chuckles as he watches maya and looks as she moves to a table and sits down. When his two bellybursters come he takes one and hands it over to Maya. "Here. My good deed for the day." He says as he waves to Mon-el. "My friend from Daxam. I trust you are well?" He asks the man curiously.

Glacier has posed:
Maya Caldwell lifts her head and blinks as Caim hands her the burger. She stares at it for a few long seconds, before slowly grabbing it, her hand chilling the air around Caim's as she does so. "Um...th-thanks. Yeah." She nods awkwardly, before unwrapping the burger and...simply holding it in her hands. The burger quickly cools to a much lower temperature in her grasp, and she takes a bite. Cold burgers. Gross.

Rift has posed:
Kitora Alua just raises an eyebrow, realizing she did call things out. She starts to mind her own business, finishing off her second burger, watching the snow-woman, the Nazi, and the alien. At least she doesn't seem to be abnormal to the others other than her odd appetite.

Mon-El has posed:
    Lar arches a brow at Caim. Friend? He only met the guy once. Well, perhaps some humans just have different standards. "I'm...all right, I guess." he answers, not sounding all that confident. Things have been compliated, lately.

    He frowns pensively at Maya. It appears she has normal human physiology, but there's some kind of cold aura around her. Either that or she has some way of obscuring her true nature from his X-ray vision.

Glacier has posed:
Maya Caldwell takes another bite out of her cold burger, not at all bothered by it's temperature. She's clad in blankets, but they're nowhere near thick enough to mess with Mor-El's X-ray vision. She's simply a really, really cold human. Her gaze slowly shifts over to Kitora as she eats, staring as she puts away three of the shop's largest burgers.
