Lea nodded with a bit of a wry smile. "Welcome to the multiverse," he said. "It's a weird, weird place."
"Though really, even if it hasn't been exactly willingly, I've been kicking around the multiverse for a couple years now, and I've found that most people who end up in places like this? Are surprisingly pretty cool. Everyone's kinda in the same boat, everyone remembers what it's like to be new and confused, so for the most part people just try to get along and be decent to each other. Yeah, there's personality clashes sometimes, and the occasional misunderstanding or cross-cultural kerfuffle, but well... no one wants to be that guy that everyone identifies as a jerk or a source of trouble, so things tend to get resolved without too much fuss."
"Plus if there's anything that'll turn your preconceived notions on their heads, it's multiverse travel. Take the vampires I mentioned, for example. You're probly thinking of a creepy guy in a black cape stalking and attacking people in the dark, but the vampire I met was the total opposite of that. His name is Daia, and he's actually really innocent and sweet. I first met him when he was hiding under a table, crying, after a disruption in the train's systems made things a bit more chaotic than usual for a day or so, and it's kinda impossible to be scared of someone after that. And since the train provided packaged blood for him to drink, he was essentially just a dude with a weird diet. Nothing to be scared of at all."
