You have no idea how to make use of your "new" talents, and this person seems to hint some things. Getting some guidance from those who know more about what you are has got to be useful, especially since you have little idea of how to be any sort of super hero. So you rather casually affirm your interest. You are a little worried when the next message asks for your zip code. Being unknown on the web is rather nice after all, and you start to worry that somebody may be wanting to track you down. Just why they would you have little idea. but it is still a bit scary. Still, the original message had talked about meeting you. So the whole idea had had implied that you were not going to hide in the dark. Well, in for a lamb, in for a ram. You send the information with just little qualms.
The answer is fairly quick in coming, if a bit puzzling. "!@#$. That's so far away. I'll never get to see you. Well, I'll put you in touch with a local. Maybe she will be able to return the favor some day. Good luck." The message closes with an email address.
You agonize a bit over what to do. Maybe a bit silly. You contact strangers on the web every day. Why worry about this one? Still, there are those stories... And you know some are real. Even if the risk is petty, it is a risk, and you hesitate before taking it. Indeed, you hesitate until another message comes in. "OHMIGOD. This is so wonderful. We'll have a great time. I'll be at home any time after 6. Just drop on over and...."
You send back objections that you want to know what is going on first, only to be told "Boss very anal. Can't say now. Will explain when you get there. Love, Rachel."
You stew about what to do. Going to a stranger's home, with little idea why, is off-putting to say the least. Still. Rachel does seem nice, and you do need help. A little embarrassment shouldn't stop you. Still, it might be best to get some more information before the visit. What does she have in mind?
