This place is

so

so

cool.

He just has to stand there gaping for a minute.

"O...kay."

He kind of wants to eat some bugs just because they have them.

Ariel heads off towards the carnivore line.

As Z approaches the specialty kiosk he may notice that the girl manning it appears to be half cockroach.

”Hi!" she says in a bright, surprisingly feminine voice. "I haven’t noticed you here before, are you new? What do you need?”

Oh, no.

He can't eat bugs in front of a bug person.

"...I'm kinda just looking around. I'm new to the...dimension."

She nods sympathetically. “It’s a lot to take in all at once, huh? I’m not from another dimension, but sometimes Whateley feels like one anyway, compared to Oklahoma.”

Absently, she pops a grasshopper into her mouth from a paper bag. 

"Ouch. That must have sucked."

She shakes her head. "It was a weird adjustment, for sure, but it's easier trying to fit in as a hick in New England than as a bug girl in Tulsa. 'Sides, Whateley's nice."
