[River Kwan's arrival isn't anything special. He woke up with a migraine and some bruises, assuming that this was a successful kidnapping, but the appearance of the masked figure, MedBot, and, well, everything else, told a different story entirely. The smell of antiseptic is comforting compared to the very real dread of being completely displaced and separated from his family (not to mention, cut off from the Esper Collective's support).
Funnily enough, the dread doesn't take over. Excitement and fascination replaces anxiety and uncertainty, and before long, River is eagerly taking on a loan for his sweet new ride, a roughed up Hummer H3. Before driving off, within his messenger bag from home (beat up, but still useable) he manages to find a scrap piece of paper and a pen with just enough ink to scribble a message and stick it on his windshield inside.]
DR. RIVER KWAN, GP I HAVE A DRIVER'S LICENSE 😁
[Road trip buddy anyone? If you take him up on his offer, be prepared for conversation, singing along with whatever's on the radio, and overall, lack of silence. This man is not afraid of socializing.
For another encounter, if you're stuck on the side of the road for whatever reason, River will slow down, roll down his window, calling out in concern.]
Yo! You need a lift bro?

[Panorama? Sweet, totally sweet. River, having sampled various cities back in the Golden State, feels at ease with the chaos, the traffic, and the variety of all there is to see. But first? It's been literal hours, he needs to bulk up with some calories. You can bet that he has shoveled those samples of dumplings and cheese into his gullet along with other snacks such as mini-meatballs, and mixed crackers. The chocolate covered alien eggs, are met with a pause and some consideration.]
How much protein do you think alien eggs got? Can't be much more than chicken.
[River shrugs, and tosses them into his mouth. And before he finishes chewing and swallowing (his mom and grandma would slap him upside the head for his manners, he says to whoever is also partaking:]
If you don't want your eggs, I'll have 'em! Nutrition is nutrition.
🩺 no sleep block
Hey! Catch!!
[Is that a rag flying at your face? Yes, because River, being a good boy, will be cleaning up the mysterious goo in the motel hallway. If you have questions or protest, he's just gonna shrug.]
Look, you can live in a dump if you want, but I figure cleaning up should keep my own tab in check. I don't wanna know how many zeroes there's gonna be by the end of this week and I like math.
