icecoldfrostOK. So if we have time, we can do an establishy post the night before, with Emma telling Karla to wear running shoes and clothes she doesn't mind ruining. If we don't have time, we'll assume all that got said handwavily, so feel free to remark on it anway.
Thread One: The portal will dump them in Chinatown, where they make their way to the nearest subway station, hitch a ride up to Central Park. Emma and Hank make their home in lost sections of the abandoned lower level under the 42nd Street station. Hence the need for pants Karla might not mind throwing out. It's dry and clean, but there's lots of climbing and such.
Thread Two: MEET HANK! If Karla wants to poke at Hank's head, I think she could. Since he's not really a 'landen,' I don't think she'd burn out his brain.
Thread Three: (optional slumber-party thread) The girls can either stay the night with Hank (Emma's got a room! With a bed!) or then head out to crash at a hotel if they want.
Final Thread: Then some late breakfast at a diner the next day before heading back.

Re: On the Way!

omg!moddednudged her out of the main path of people and towards the machines that dispensed the metrocards. It wasn't until they were directly in front of one that Karla even bothered to examine it, her attention taken up by the newsstand, the buskers, and the incomprehensible maps. "How does this work?" she asked.Re: On the Way!

"Unless you tuck it in a book so it can't be seen. It'll mark you as a tourist --" worse than usual, anyway, "-- and someone will try for your purse. If you're unsure about your station-stop, ask someone in uniform, or look at the wall maps."
