It would be quite a challenge to see it all, but I can at least show you where decent coffee is made. I'll send you the location.
[A couple of minutes later Thor does just that, sending through a description of the third largest planet, which city, and the name of the cafe. It's deep Starstrikers territory, which of course means Thor's been there a lot.]
[This seems like the most straightforward way to note who he is. There aren't that many people wandering around who have eye patches.
Thor gets to the cafe at the appointed time and waits outside of it. Of course, this doesn't stop some of his fans from his hammer throw matches accosting him in the meantime and asking for photos, which he happily agrees to.]
[ Clark finds him easily: nobody anywhere is really out of his line of sight. Plus, he did say he has an eye patch, and the large man surrounded by adoring fans is extremely hard to miss.
Clark waits until there's just a few people left around Thor. ]
Next time, I'll queue up for your autograph. It'd be faster. [ Teasing. ]
Good to meet you as well? I hope the change from the Marsiva was not too surprising.
[The switch had certainly thrown Thor for a loop when it happened, only that was more to do with the fact that he'd been trying to break through walls at the time. He gestures for Clark to follow him into the cafe, a bright and airy space with the familiar silver and black colour scheme favoured by a particular team.]
Some of the things they serve here aren't exactly coffee, but they are similar enough to count.
People tend to be good about that here, at least when they're able to. When I arrived communications were down and we were stranded on a hostile world, so I was a bit late getting the explanations.
[Thor tilts the menu his way for a moment, before tapping his finger against something called 'Black Hole Blend'.]
[ He nods. More and more, he's realising he might be extremely lucky with everything that's happened. Then again, being kidnapped by Zod for his first time is a low bar to clear.
[There may have been an incident in this same cafe where someone hurled their cup across the room after trying it. That honestly just made Thor like it more.]
They don't make it like this in New York, I can say that much.
[Thor flags over a waiter to give their drink orders. Once that's done, he turns back to Clark with a nod.]
I have, yes. I have been to all the Nine Realms of course, and many other worlds besides those. I had actually been on a sort of journey for a few years before I came here, trying to find some information out in the universe.
[ Thor says it so casually, he must be used to it.
Clark can't even begin to imagine. That sounds wonderful, Nine Realms and more of the universe? Maybe somewhere out there Krypton might have survived. ]
What were you looking for, if you don't mind my asking?
[He hums in thought, resting his chin in one hand. It isn't a story he's told much since being here, even less so since regaining two years of memories.]
There are some powerful objects that have been appearing on Earth of late; they're known as Infinity Stones. One would be coincidence, but two feels like some larger plan. I know there are more of them out there and I wanted to figure out if anyone knew their whereabouts, or why the other two had appeared on Earth.
I left Earth to find some answers. [He leans back in his chair, with a light shrug.] Didn't find any though.
[ He had held on to a small hope that Asgard could exist in his universe. Having people like Thor or Loki around wouldn't do much to allay Earth's uneasiness with alien visitors, but he could see it being a good thing. ]
And it brings us to where we are. [ He shakes his head. ] Is it too much to hope for that you might find something here?

Does it help if you spend time on the Iskaulit? It is bigger.

[The most important aspect.]
More often I will stay somewhere on the planets we visit.

Only sometimes - they all seem to find me at once around here.

You must be Clark.

[ If so many people hadn't stepped forward to help him, he'd be much more lost. ]
I'm sure they'll be interesting nonetheless. [ He looks at the menu, already liking the ambience. ] Which is your favourite?

I don't know. I hadn't thought about asking around in this place. [This reality or universe, whatever it is.] I've had other things on my mind.
