I know there's a lot going on in another door here, but if you need a hand with anything, let me know. My resources are at your disposal.

[A little laugh.] A little bit of everything is what we prefer. [Her hand rested fondly at the top of her stomach.] About… five months? Still got a ways to go but the cravings kind of get in the way of work. [She gestured with a wave of her hand the computers before gleefully taking the pineapples off his hands. With a slight nod, she gestured to the kitchen and for him to follow her.] So how are you adjusting?

[There was a grin at her response, letting her take the bag of fruit from him as she led the way towards the kitchen area.] I'm not going to pretend to understand what you're going through, but I imagine it gets difficult at times. At least you have people willing to bring you pineapples at all times of the day. [Oliver grinned again and stepped into the kitchen area after her, hands sliding into his pockets as he walked.]

And I'm adjusting fine. I guess. [There was a pause, just a brief one, and then he sighed.] A little overwhelming if I'm going to be honest, actually. I feel like I've stepped into someone else's life with everyone here that seems to know me.

I’m more lucky you offered when you did. I’m getting to the annoying point. Might as well give them a rest. [In the kitchen she pulled out things from cupboards and the fridge, her feet padding softly on the floor.] I definitely know how that goes. [Food in hand, she laid out the ingredients for a sandwich, gesturing to the bread with a quick:] Hungry? [before starting to make her ham, cheese, and pineapple concoction.] I had that when I got here. Apparently a few other Me’s had already showed up. It takes some getting used to but it’s not so bad. And this place is that much different than where you’re from? [She’d been away in space for some time. Keeping up with Gotham gossip had fallen by the wayside.]

The others not really keen on pineapple delivery? [It was said with a grin as Ollie leaned against one of the counters, watching as she pulled this and that out, his head eventually cocking to the side at the addition of the pineapple to the sandwich. It wasn't exactly his taste, but he supposed there were stranger things that she could do with it.] I'll take one minus the pineapple, if you don't mind.

[It was reassuring to know that he wasn't the only one in this situation, with other versions of him wandering around that he had no idea about.] It's different enough. Can't say I've ever heard of a Gotham back home. I've lived most of my life in Starling City. Done a bit of traveling, but I always end up back home. People seem... interesting though. And there's a couple here that I know, so I'm not dealing with it on my own.

I think they’re a little sick of always being on pineapple duty. One sandwich sans fruit, coming up. [She nodded as he talked, his thoughts echoing hers when she first arrived.] They’re good people. It’ll take some getting used to and some will gravitate to you because of who you are, were, can be, to them but it’s comes from a good place. They mean well. [Once finished, she handed him his sandwich with a smile.] And you’ve got some that you know and are in your corner? Odds are stacked in your favor.

Well, I'm happy to pitch in on pineapple delivery if the others don't come through for you. [Another grin and he watched as she made the sandwich and listened as she spoke, giving a nod after a moment as he reached out to accept the sandwich that was offered his way. Ollie spent a moment examining it before taking a bite, hip butted up against the counter as he chewed.]

Just a lot to get used to. Trying to keep an open mind, and some of you have been particularly welcoming, which helps. I'd like to get rid of that new kid feeling eventually. [There was a pause and he thumbed some crumbs away from the corner of his mouth.] So. You the eyes and ears?
