Natalie made no move to follow as the gathered crowd parted, allowing Raven to move off into town. The GT tried to banish her feelings of... uneasiness about the Interceptor. True, the guy seemed a little peculiar. He sounded and smelled different, but for all she knew that was how a normal Interceptor behaved.
It wasn't her place to worry about it. Leave it to society's better half to figure this out, and exclude any mention of her name. She'd caused enough trouble.
Rolling her eyes, she wandered back the way she came, to the drive-in.

Naturally, Fabrizio had tagged along behind Rosa, ever vigilant in keeping watch. He knew her mannerisms when she was on to sniffing someone out, so the Vector made to stay out of her way.
He had taken note of how timid Raven seemed in the company of so many. Unless he was agoraphobic or simply another shy case, the ex-photographer wondered to himself if this stranger was concealing anything in being so nervous.

Shawn kept the end of his antenna tightly wrapped around Boo's stout wing. The foxdog whined in protest, trying to break the grip. The curious critter could wait until that strange newcomer was settled before darting up to say hello.
He had never been one to rely on what his feelings told him about people. But the aero hybrid had a sneaky suspicion there was something distinctly different about the Interceptor.

(((((OOC: Something's going on with my Internet connection so it would be unlikely that I'll be able to RP today. If I happen to suddenly disappear unexpectedly, please puppet my characters for me because I don't want them to be left out.)))))
Raven was watching the crowd gathering at the diner, giving him a brief glance before they turned to their own business. He wondered what he had gotten himself into to be chased all the way to the backwater planet where he strands himself on.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"He is strange," agreed Rosa, "Even more strange that is his scent isn't even of this planet. I'm used to what I know, but I don't know anything about this scent. There's something that he's hiding."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ebony was listening as best she could to the conversation outside her Cone. Having been immobilized because of the twins, she just couldn't go out to investigate.
She had no idea what Rosa was talking about either, so this very much left her in the dark.

"He looks like something right out of Hollywood." Phoenix said to Boost as they watched Raven from a distance. "It feels like he just drove off set from a alien invasion movie."

Little did anyone know, they were not far from the truth. Raven was indeed an alien, but one in the disguise of a Dodge Interceptor. He was still nervous about being around crowds, but he was managing well.
"Er, excuse me," Raven said to no one in particular, "Is there a chance that I can get some nourishment from this establishment?"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Yeah," Boost nodded in agreement with Phoenix, "He certainly does. Are they shooting a movie here and we don't even know about it?"

"I don't think it's that." Phoenix said. "There would be equipment and trailers everywhere. A movie set can almost be a little city. I haven't seen anything like that around. The only one who would really know would be Neil."

*Kerry got board and desided to snoop in Sideways trailer, he rolled out onto the road and headed down to flo's where Sideways left his trailer near there, across the road. He passed the newcomer and took the turn and drove to the back of Sideways trailer and took a look around before popping the lock on the back and opend the doors, he reached up and pushed a button to let the ramp down. He took another look around and drove up into the trailer starting to nosie thru the stuff in the trailer*

One of the server girls came up to Raven. "Gas or oil, you mean? I can set up the pump for you right here!" She pressed a pedal and a gas nozzle came down into place. "What flavor of oil would you like? Special today is strawberry-kiwi infusion."
"I can spot him, Flo." Kim came up. Something told her that this stranger seemed to be out of it, to the point that he might not know that this involved a monetary transaction.
"We'll check this out, OK?" Darcy said to Ebony. "We'll get back to you." She and Johnny slipped over to the diner and joined the small throng there.

"Then this would be much stranger and more real than if it was from a movie," said Boost, "I can't make sense out his scent. It's a little bit too weird for me."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Raven was a little bit confused when one of the server girls came up to him and started telling him about what the diner had for nourishment. It was then that Kim came up and offered to spot for him. But like he promised himself, he'll try anything to fit in with the inhabitants of this strange town.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ebony nodded tiredly and remained on her pad. She really did want to know what was going on. It was just that she had to rely on someone else now to check things out.
She sighed and tried to relax as best she could, despite the twins she was carrying that was making her heavy.

"And he's not from around here thats for sure." Phoenix said listening to how Raven spoke. "I can't reconize his accent, doesn't sound European to me."

"And he's acting all confused whenever someone talks to him about everyday common things like gas or oil," observed Boost as he watched Raven being spoken to by one of the server girls.

Darcy listened discreetly for a few moments, then returned to Ebony. "That guy seems completely, you know.. out of it? He had no idea how to get gas or order anything, and his accent doesn't sound like anything I've heard before."

"I don't think... his scent is right either..." said Ebony, "I can't... make heads or tails of it... it's way too unrecognizable..."

"But I think the main question is; is he gonna cause any trouble." Phoenix said as she watched Raven. "Should we keep an eye on him?"

"I don't know," replied Boost, "We may have to watch if he does anything strange."

Slaytor comes back and he gives Ebony a nuzzle, "It's a dodge interceptor, they're a rare breed, and he acts really odd. Like regular things are completely foreign."
