"The full quote is, when in Rome do as the Romans do. I believe she is advising us to do as the rest of the people and get some food." The Kryptonian youth gave Zoey a smile and followed her and Lydia into the line.
Jor had some experience with food as the other Titans had introduced him to several things at once, but there were still new tastes to be experienced. He grabbed various items to put on his tray, looking at other people's reactions to them. Jor withdrew a bill and handed it to the cashier. Captain America had provided him a small stipend for his and Zoey's lunch, but Lydia managed to get to it first.
Once they returned to the table, Jor started sampling things as well. The chicken patty was good, but Jor thought that it might be better with what Walt and Marty called hot sauce. It was a kind of sauce made with spicy peppers, that Jor had come to enjoy. He tried the pizza and found it passable, though it did not compare with the genuine article that Walt had shown him. Jor offered more of his french fries to Zoey as he ate. "I don't think they're French. I believe they are actually from Belgium... The people of this world are an odd bunch."
As Zoey experimented with Jello, Jor ate an ice cream bar and smiled, while he watched the Amazon experience the gelatin dessert. This planet had many strange things indeed. Gabby had exposed him to Jello early on and he had a fascination with it then as well. The Boy of Steel smiled again and spoke. "You should try eating it. It's a very interesting sensation, if you've never had it before." Jor's eyes met Lydia's and he was able to read a certain amount of body language. He was thankful for the arrival of Walter dressed as Captain America, albeit somewhat confused by the presence of Walter as Cap.
"I don't understand him, sometimes. I fear I may never understand him."
