haere mai - in character

I'm surprised WAD didn't open a second apartment building in Auckland. More jobs, more school, more shopping...

I admit this is not where I anticipated I would end up at anytime, let alone at this moment in time.

My sincere and many thanks to my grandson my grandson, Anakin Solo, for showing me to my temporary apartment and for answering several immediate questions I had after my initial intake.

It will take some time for me to settle in here, I'm sure, but in the meantime, greetings to those of you present who have also been displaced to here. I'm Bail Organa, Prince Consort and Viceroy of Alderaan, a planet I'm told is in a galaxy far, far away from this one.

Onto more pressing matters: would anyone be able to point me in the right direction to where I might be able to find a stiff drink and good music? Jazz is preferred.

Really?

Okay so, after a few days getting used to this place and praying I don't lose my job in Central City because of this forced vacation (can this be considered a vacation, though?), I thought I would introduce myself.

Hi. I'm Barry Allen *waves* I love Rick & Morty, pizza (who doesn't?), and long walks on the beach.

Maybe the last one is not exactly true, but you get the feeling, right?

When I was in school, I always hated the ice breaker games. "Pick an animal to go with your name", "Make a poem about your summer break", "Share your name and sit there quietly even though you are a tiny person with a lizard brain." So, here's something different.

Tell me something about you and I'll tell you the flavor of truffle you should pick at Berries Cafe.

(Hi, I'm Carol Danvers. Most people call me Carol. Before you ask ... I can fly, don't touch Goose unless he gives you permission, and I can pack a pretty punch. It's good to meet you all. Philosophical question: Is this what the universe thought it would take for me to go on vacation? I'm going for the key lime white chocolate truffle.)

Is there a good knitting supplies shop around here?

PS: Did you know there are yarn tours? There might be alpacas there. Everyone should go.

Hey nerds: None of you are Batman. Shut the fuck up and stop trying to throw "batarangs" at things.
