( it's not been horribly long since Diana poked around the network, and surprise surprise, she's still ignoring the fact there is a voice and text function. she will look upon the faces of those she speaks to, tyvm!

she's dressed in the dark black of the city guard, her hair pinned up and a sparkling brooch at her cloak, though her fingers are already toying with it as she speaks.
)

I see that our numbers have grown greater. My name is Diana of Themyscira, and I bid you all welcome, both faces old and new. If you need aide during your displacement, then I offer what knowledge I have. You need but ask.

( that said, it's not exactly why she's here, though her note is just as important with so many more that might need to learn how to protect themselves. )

It has come to my attention that there are many in our midst that know little in the way of defense. Or, perhaps not enough, in a world with so many dangers lingering just out of sight. It troubles me to think that there are those that may not know how to protect themselves, especially if they possess a desire to learn.

( which brings her to her purpose, an important one at that. Diana seems gifted at finding herself a purpose. )

I am an amazon, well trained in the art of war. Archery, swordplay, use of a shield, riding, hand to hand, more. If there are those that would learn, I would be happy to show what I know. It will not be simple, and the training will be difficult. Still, if you would learn, I will make you an amazon. This is more than a style of defense, it is a family. You will gain both if you learn from me.

( her piece said, Diana crosses her arms. )

If you need more information, ask what you will.

[Wait. After a slight delay but before she can answer, Andy is back with a gasp.]

Holy crap. Horse power! I get it! They mean like, the actual power of horses!

[Immediately, eagerly--]

Now! No. [wait] Tomorrow? Tomorrow. Or the day after. I'm really just testing snacks right now, because I don't have a job "yet"-- [He does the air quotes for his own benefit.] --so I'm free pretty much always. And I can bring snacks.

You got it.

[A carrot rolled in sugar? Gross. But simple! Turns out that horses are going to be a piece of frickin' cake. Horse-shaped cake.]

I'll see you and your horse tomorrow morning! Or-- afternoon. Turns out it's hard waking up without clocks.

Alarm clocks! We have a radio alarm clock and we duct taped it to a Roomba 'cause I kept punching it apart in the morning. Totally by accident. Guess I don't know my own strength. My friend Tom gave me the idea and it works... pretty good? Sometimes I throw stuff at it and I'm good at baseball so, pow--

[Unseen, he mimes a throw.]

Direct hit, usually. How do you wake up without a clock? Roosters?

[Wh--]

What time does the sun get up? [wait.] Dude. You mean sunrise? You wake up at sunrise?

Look, no offense, but the only time I ever saw the sunrise was once on TV when I watched a nature show by mistake. And then once when I stayed up real late watching American Gladiator reruns and I thought someone was just shining a really bright light outside the window but when I went to shut the blinds, it turned out it was just the sun, 'cause it was two in the afternoon the next day, and I'd missed a whole day of work.

What do you do when you're all-- you know, awake, with the sun?

[Like, ????]

[Uh huh sure, sure]

I don't know. Does early morning have... pancakes?

[Here's the GOTCHA moment:]

HA! Not at McDonald's they don't! They close breakfast after ten am. You gotta get up pretty early to get those suckers and then, half the time, they tell you that "this location doesn't have pancakes" and then they ask you to leave.

Wait.

They don't have McDonald's here, do they? Aww, man! Well, you get what I mean, right.
