Who: Marguerite and Open What: Getting her bearings Where: Near the coffee shop When: July 14th Rating: Shouldn't be high, but pg13 to be safe.
Marguerite had certainly seen her fair share of strange things during her time on the plateau, but this certainly was a new one. She still couldn't believe that she had somehow managed to get trapped in yet another new place and this time without any of her friends....or Roxton for that matter. She didn't like the fact that she somehow felt like she wasn't sure if she could survive this place without him. She was so used to doing things for herself, but during her time on the plateau she had slowly learned to rely on other people.....and John had been first among them. He had always been there to help her, even when she didn't always deserve it. She had never thought there would be a place that would make her long for the plateau, but this one certainly did. Sure it was nice to be away from the dinosaurs and the ape men, but the plateau had become her home and this place couldn't hold a candle to it....at least in her mind. Now there was no way she would admit any of this out loud of course.....at least not to anyone other than John. He had a way of worming things out of her, even when she was determined to keep them to herself.
With these thoughts all rolling around in her head she made her way down the strange sidewalks. She kept her eyes open for any dangers, this place somehow making her even more hyper aware than the plateau ever had. She still had her gun on her hip, and her whip on the other side. Her favorite pocket knife was still in her boot. She never went anywhere without being armed. She knew better than most just how fast things could go from safe to not safe. Sure she had gotten to where she didn't mind John fighting beside her, but she could still handle her own business if he wasn't around.
She also knew that being to confrontational could lead to unecesary trouble, so she made sure to keep that winning smile on her lips as she finally walked into one shop that she found interesting. It was a place simply called coffee and since that was something that she could certainly use right now she decided to see what the shop was like. As she made her way inside she had a look around, before making her way over to the counter. She had watched the other patrons and saw what they did, and she had always been very good at fitting into new places. So, it didn't take her long to figure out how to order herself a coffee and once she had it in hand she made her way over to an empty table and had a seat.
