(no subject)

Passengers: Alex Mercer, Theon Greyjoy, Theo Crawford (And supervised by Loki Odinson)
Location: SIRE
Date: Early June
Summary: Loki is encouraging Alex to meet people, talk to them. So he's arranged a 'playdate' of sorts with Theo and Theon, and is sending them to a location in the SIRE. Shenanigans and maybe actual talking will ensue.
Warnings: Language? Talk of violence?



This had to be a joke. But--Alex thought he could sort of see what Loki was trying to encourage for him. He wasn't sure this was the best way to go about it, but here he was anyways. Here they all were--in a facsimile of Vegas.

Alex had never been, but somehow he knew this was a recreation/memory of Las Vegas. All flash and neon and party. He was starting to reconsider if this was a good idea or not.

Theon’s head aches. It’s the noise. The excited hum of human voices has never been a problem before, but this is different. There are other noises mixed in: the rumbling of cars, music floating in and out of strange buildings, and he swears he can even hear the electric lights buzzing all around them. He doesn't want to be a killjoy, but it’s overwhelming. Still, he did agree to be here.

"Is this where you come from?," he asks Alex, forcing himself not to flinch as a car speeds by. "Cozy," he adds, his voice dripping with sarcasm.

Theon glances around. He can't imagine worse. He's yet to truly get use to the spaceship, but he understands more than he did. He'll never feel at home, but electric lights aren't so confusing anymore, and he's begun to adapt to the other forms of technology. Questions should be minimal, and he's not so certain he'll want to ask them anyway.

"I'm from Westeros," he responds, not quite understanding the use of the word medieval. "There are castles, there are horses, and there are knights. Chivalry might be a bit rarer."
