There's a lot of crashing from inside a warehouse, somewhere in Metropolis and then...

something comes out of the building, smacking his head on the door lintel in the process.

"Saaa-rah?"

(ooc: OMG, I love you <3 Trying to consider who's close enough to Metropolis to send heee I think it's only John Constantine there...)

[ooc: *grins* If John wouldn't try to kill him, send him over!]

ONOES SOMEONE MIGHT BE IN TROUBLE!

There is a giant bat thing here to investigate and maybe rescue!

...but for now mostly to hover a safe distance away because that thing is BIG and possibly SCARY.

"...cro... bat?"

Big, yes, but completely harmless. He peers up at the giant bat thing.

"...Crobat?"

That could all be a cunning ruse, meant to-

Oh, what the heck, he seems nice enough.

"Cro cro," it replies, hovering closer. "Bat cro?"

"Ludo", he responds, uncertainly.

"Crobat!" Yay now they are friends!

"Bat crobat bat?"

"Ludo hungry."

He eats a lot.

Hmmm...

"Crobat bat!" It is not sure that it can carry someone that big (barring use of pokeballs), but it can lead! There is a "follow me!" gesture with one wing.

Ludo gets it, and lumbers further into the street to follow.

"Crobat find food?"

"Cro!"

There is a restaurant.

And a hostess who is wishing that this were her day off.

Ohhh, she ain't seen nothing yet.

Ludo grins happily at the smell of food.

"Um, good afternoon..." Frozen smile and sweating! A perfect combination!

"Crobat bat!" Crobat announces helpfully.

"Ludo hungry", is the equally helpful back-up. "No be afraid."

...

...

...

"...two, then?"

"Cro!"

"Um, right... right this way."

The sooner she can make this a waiter's problem, the better.

He ducks, and still scrapes the lintel as he follows the woman inside.

They are possibly not the most bizarre patrons ever.

They are, however, the most bizarre patrons this month.

There is a fair amount of attention. And a huddled argument among the waitstaff.

Crobat, oblivious to this, is trying to read the menu. This is difficult when you do not actually know how to read. But there are pictures! Pictures are good!

Ludo picks up another menu in one huge hand and copies what Crobat is doing.

Finally, hopefully, "All?"

He doesn't quite understand the concept of paying.

"Cro?" Neither does Crobat, honestly. (That is something that Master always took care of!) But there's a lot of food on the menu.

"Bat cro?" it wonders, glancing around. Surely, someone should've come by already.

Oh, wait, there's a buffet over there. Surely this is how it works, then!

"Crobat bat!" Whee, food problem solved with a minimum of fuss!

That poor buffet.

It doesn't have long to live. Ludo will be sure to let Crobat have his share, though.

Yay yummy food!

...why are people suddenly screaming and running? Is there a monster attacking? Crobat does not see any mosnters!

No monsters here! Just... an eight-foot furry orange creature making a mess.

And a four foot bat.

And an angry restaurant manager.

Oh shi

"b-bat! Batbat!"

"Hey, you two!"

Ludo turns to look at him plaintively.

"Ludo hungry."

"C- crobat..."

"Ludo have any money?" Cross arms, glare. ~~Knees shaking under the trousers.~~

"...money?" he says blankly, putting a hand on Crobat's shoulder reassuringly.

"To pay for..." He starts a gesture, but gives up and just hides his face in one hand.

"Out!"

"C- cro..." Crobat is willing to take that escape route.

Crobat wants to leave. Ludo shoots one longing glance at the wreckage of the buffet table, with what's left of the food, then turns sadly and lumbers towards the door.

OK, so...

What's someplace with food and not people asking for "money?"

Hmmm...

"Cro! Crobat!" It is a place nearby! Well, nearby as the Crobat uses Fly, anyway.

Time to lead someone new farmward!

Ludo has long strides. He can keep up.

"Food? No money?"

"Cro!" It is the best place.

[OOP: Would you like to make a farm entry post, or shall I?]

[ooc: go right ahead!]
