Kate actually chuckles at Nathan's tone. It's not the worst reaction she's ever seen.
Nodding:
"Most folk tend t'come from around the twenty-first century. Y'can imagine it was a big shock for me, first time here. But, well, the proof is in the puddin', sir. Take a look around the room. These ain't elaborate costumes, or crazy makeup."
To be certain, there are humans aplenty, but there are also robots, and furry bipeds, elves and dwarves, creatures of all different colors, wearing all different styles of dress. And, naturally, there are the waitrats.
"A lotta folk seem t'think they're dreamin' or hallucinatin' when they first come in. Helps ease the blow, I reckon. Shame you two came in together, it kinda puts an end t'that."
Then, turning to Audrey:
"Ah, it's a small place. It's grown into a respectable town in my day, lots'a money, but it's been sufferin' drought the last few years. Couple folks I've met from further in the future say it ain't very big, if it's the same place at all. Port Lavaca an' Corpus Christi have grown bigger, no surprise."
