New Los Angeles

Ronald McDonald leans against the outside wall of a building from which bustling activity can be heard. It used to be an abandoned diner, but with the "magic" of being an insanely rich fast-food mascot, it was transformed into the Arena's first McDonald's establishment. That was a month ago, and business is now booming.

Ronald is holding an extra-large cup of soda, sipping from it casually with a straw. His mind begins to wander from the monotony just outside the building. "I wonder if the Burger King ended up in this world or not..."

Grumio stumbles past.

He looks like he hasn't eaten in a week. Probably because he has not eaten in a week.

"Oh no… I am low on energy…"

A masculine figure can be seen running towards the Mc Donald's building, after hearing that someone is low on energy. Dust can be seen building up behind him, as he gets closer and closer to the building.

A faint sound can be heard in the background... https://youtu.be/z54MpfR3XE4

Ronald sees Grumio and perks up a bit. "Well, hello there, stranger! If you need a bite, you've come to the right place! If you need a drink, however..." He narrows his eyes as he sees Pepsiman approach. "You may want to just turn around."

Ronald tosses aside his soda cup, which happened to be filled with Coke. He holds out an empty hand, expecting a can of Pepsi to materialize in it at any moment...

Grumio instantly perks up.

"Yes! Having food would most please me!"

He gets out a small sack and starts rummaging for his coins.

A few seconds later, Pepsiman happens to arrive at the scene, and holding out his hand and "mouth" wide open, he makes the satisfying sound of a can of Pepsi opening.

Pepsi should obstruct their views for a few more seconds, before finding a refreshing can of the "good stuff" in their open hands.

"Ah, yes. It's been too long; I asked them to add Pepsi to the soda fountain, but they refuse to let it have both that and Coke! Let the kids choose, I say!" Ronald holds his can out to Pepsiman in a "cheers" gesture, before popping the tab and taking a sip. He then holds out his other hand and flicks his wrist in the direction of Pepsiman and Grumio, scattering sparkling dust around them.

Each should have his vision obscured by the golden "M" logo of McDonald's for a few seconds, and when his vision clears, have a Happy Meal on a tray in his arms. For Grumio, his money sack should also be lying in a corner of the tray, not a single coin missing. For both Grumio and Pepsiman, there should be a Pepsi can in place of some other drink. "Consider it free - just for you!"

There is a twinkle in his eye.

"Food for free?! This is a good thing! Thanks to you!"

ussr national anthem plays in the background~

He's kind of weirded out by the flashing logos but at this point doesn't give a damn. He sits down and digs into the burger. It tastes really weird, but it also is FOOD.

Pepsiman is now holding the Happy Meals within his hands. He opens it up to find a Cheese burger and some kids fries. Normally, Pepsiman doesn't eat, as he isn't required to do so, but he'll make an exception to this kind man.

He takes the Cheeseburger, and opens his "mouth" to suck part of it in with a vacuum weak enough to not affect anything else. He takes his time to "chew" and he seems to be enjoying it. After swallowing it, he gets the Pepsi can, opens it and drinks all of it down.

Ronald smiles contently. "Of course, you'll have to pay in the future, but now you know where this place is if you ever need more food! If you have any cooking skills, maybe you can even get a job here."

He then looks at Pepsiman, drinking his own can of Pepsi in unison with the being. After the cans are emptied, he says, "So, would you like to stick around for a bit? You have always been... more appealing to adventurous kids than me."

"Oh."

soviet national anthem fades out

"Oh! I am a chef! I was the best chef in all of Pompeii!"

He was legitimately a pretty good cook, but he's unfamiliar with newfangled modern cooking techniques. He's more used to preparing… you know, the type of food that was made back in Roman times.

Pepsiman takes his time to consider the thought of entertaining the kids. After a bit, he nods in agreement, and opens his "mouth" again to take another "bite" of the cheeseburger.

Pepsiman enjoys giving Pepsi to those who needs it, because it's the nice thing to do, so being able to hang out with people to make them happy as well will make this day even better for him.

He looks at Ronald as though he is happy, though that is yet to be confirmed with Pepsiman having no facial features.

"Pompeii, you say?" Ronald chuckles. "Well, sir, I'm not sure how to break it to you, but... McDonald's originates from a much different time and place than Pompeii, so your cooking, though I don't doubt your skill in it, is probably the wrong... shall we say, 'style.' I can teach you how McDonald's handles cooking, if you're willing to learn a new way to cook."

He smiles and nods to Pepsiman, holding out his empty can for both a refill and a fist bump.

"I miss Pompeii…"

"Yes, I learned of that earlier that this is the future! Is cooking much more advanced in the future?!"

He eats his fries.

"These food sticks taste like they have been made with flat honey."

Pepsiman holds out his hand, the one with empty can, does the fist bump with Ronald, and opens his... you get the point. He refills his drink.

He then looks at Grumio, even though he hasn't tried the fries yet.

Ronald pulls his hand away after the fist bump, taking another drink of Pepsi.

"Well, let's see. I wouldn't call it 'much more advanced,' but then again, I was born into this culinary era! There's different food and different equipment to make the food." Ronald pulls a potato out of thin air. In his hand, it splits into many thin rectangles, which begin to sizzle, pop, and turn yellow as though they were being dunked in boiling oil. Eventually, it settles down, and in his hand is a pile of crispy French fries. "That's how those 'food sticks' start out - as potatoes. We chop them up in a certain way and dunk them in oil, although that's putting it in over-simplified terms. What you just saw me do - that's not the normal way the food's made. I just happen to have magic powers over food due to being a food mascot."

He drinks the Pepsi.

"This is bubbly wine."

"That brown apple is called a potato…? Yes, I wish to learn these magic cookings!"

Pepsiman puts his half-eaten Cheeseburger back into the box, and takes a "bite" out of a chip. He seems to enjoy that as well.

He is now thinking about the idea of Pepsi being a fizzy wine.

Some time after that...

Ronald McDonald makes his way out of New Los Angeles and takes his first step into Primordia, beginning his journey around the world. He has given Grumio all the training necessary to maintain the McDonald's in his absence, but the time has come to search for other civilizations in need of fast food.

Primordia...

Koishi is standing by a tree in Primordia, disappearing in and out. She either does not notice Ronald or does not care to get his attention.

"Hmm..."

A highly-advanced looking space-craft arriving, boasting some kind of yellow colors with white outlines. It's not particularly big in itself and is completely alien in design, its shape being something that humans would not be able to easily define.

The UFO beams down an alien on the ground and promptly departs, with the creepy-looking alien promptly speaking in a hole in the palms of his hand, whispering alien gibberish.

Ronald initially pretends not to notice Koishi and the alien, though eventually he cannot ignore their presence. "Hello, there, strangers. Are either of you interested in, say... good food?"

The alien look kind of frightened at first but then notices its Ronald and just laughs, putting one hand on his stomach as his tentacles flail in every direction.

"HAAHAHAHAHAHAHAH. SILLY HUMAN FROM EARTH.." he says. "I HAVE BEEN WARNED ABOUT MANY HUMANOIDS ENTITIES WITHIN THIS REALM."

"YES SERVE ME FOOD HUMAN I CRAVE IT."
