Profile 001 - [Action]
[Sofia has done this dance before - arrive at a different world with it's own rules she has to obey unless she wants this world invaded by the enemies of her employers. She observed the necklace with curious eyes, even pulling out her own translucent smartphone to compare them for a second while she was walking, not even bothering to see where she was going and talking under her breath again]
Find a place, get a job. Sounds simple enough. Tedious, but simple...
[Sofia rubbed the back of her neck and releases a frustrated sigh]
...Gah, feels like too much work. I'll do that later.
[While finding shelter and a livelihood is more important, her top priority right now is tea. She's less of a slacker once she had some of Oolong tea in her system]
Two different worlds before being dragged here and all of them had awful tea. [A sharp cringe] Should I go three-for-three?

[Jack's is a pleasant enough place in the day. The karaoke stage is wide open, though no one seems up to rocking the mic just at the moment. Cherise is just glad to be out of the cold, and as soon as she steps through the doors, she releases a quiet 'whew!' as she unwinds her scarf from her neck.]
Do you have a preference on where we sit, Sofia?
no subject
Let's take a seat there. I always pick the booths.
[Sitting there had many advantages. It's close to the fire-exit and she could see the whole seating area from there]
no subject
You sound like my partner.
[Wolcott would have chosen the exact same spot, probably for the exact same reasons. Unbuttoning her coat, she sheds her winterwear just as they reach the booth. She'll allow Sofia to take the prime vantage point, folding her jacket neatly to lay it beside her once she's settled in. Peeling off her gloves, she picks up the menu. There's certainly no lack of sandwiches to be found.]
Well. Tell me about yourself. Where are you from? What's your world like?
no subject
Well it's not complicated. I'm from a planet called Earth and I lived in a city called New York. But from the looks of you, I'm guessing you know of those names? Many of the universes I travel to is an alternate version of my own.
[She pauses]
I travel worlds on the behest of my employer, but sometimes I get into these accidents that land me in a world I don't intend to go to. Just like now.
no subject
Yes, I'm familiar with Earth and New York.
[Her expression turns mildly thoughtful at the idea of an alternate reality. A lot of study has been dedicated to this theory, and though some magicians can hop into and out of pocket dimensions, no one has yet proved the existence of alternate universes. ...Until now, naturally.]
Interdimensional travel? How fascinating. Is the nature of your work confidential, or might I ask what it is you do on these visits?

[Cherise wouldn't press further, then. She ordered a cup of tea from the waiter, but nothing more. She'd already eaten her lunch. The fact that there was an organization that habitually sent agents to scout out other worlds troubled her; why would they need to do such a thing? Were they searching for a place to invade and conquer with minimal casualties, perhaps...? No, she told herself, no sense dwelling on wild and paranoid assumptions.]
Magic is common in the world from which I originate. I wonder if you can do any spells or charms yourself?
no subject
[Sofia shrugged. Without her suit, she's just a normal human being]
no subject
[She figures Sofia is probably a soldier or peacekeeping agent. It would explain the confidentiality. Their order arrives, and she takes up her cup of tea with a sigh of relief. Is there anything better on a cold day?]
Have you found a place to live yet?
no subject
No, I still haven't even looked. I should if I don't want to be homeless tonight.
no subject
[SIP.]

[She takes another sip of her tea before setting down her cup.]
It has a swimming pool and a clubhouse. Neither are likely to be useful to me, but they're nice amenities if you care for them.

There's no harm in looking around later, if there's something else that catches your eye. But Tupelo is more than comfortable, I think you'll be pleased. All of the buildings here are quite nice.
[...Oh, but then there's that one.]
Except Binford Gardens. Complete rubbish. Rent is cheaper, true, but it's hardly worth the discount if you ask me.

[She grimaces of the memory of having to stay in one for a mission]
