The food stands were terribly busy and she didn't know what to pick out. Some of the words were familiar (cake was cake even in her world), but most of it she could only guess at what she might like. She finally chose some soda, and an order of fish and chips and was amazed at just how greasy it looked as she wandered around looking for a place to sit.

There was a man by himself at the only empty table although it looked like he might be waiting for some friends with the amount of food he had setting out. Red looked around and still didn't see any other openings, so she decided to intrude as politely as she could. "Excuse me," she said almost too softly to hear, still unsure of her own voice.

"May I sit here? I can leave if you have friends coming." Red gave him a small, hopeful smile.
