Finding herself back in the school uniform she wore back in Miles universe was oddly comforting, as were the blue ballet slippers on her feet. It meant she wasn't on the train. But, seconds after that thought, she's aware she's not only not on the train, but she's nowhere near Peter. Before she can panic about that too much, the voice speaking has her attention.
Seriously, that guy wasn't there before, and she was pretty good at knowing where people were. Her hearing was insane, so the fact that she missed him had her really unnerved. So much so that she probably looked just as shocked as the rest of the people around her.
Which...also has her surprised. Her abilities were working just fine, so why hadn't she noticed the people before? A lot of them look just as shocked as she does. None of them look familiar just yet. Both of these she has problems with.
When her name is called, she heads up to the booth and looks at Jerry with some unease. There's a smile on her face, sure, but that's to be polite.
When he's done talking, she asks him a question.
"By any chance, Jerry...Mr Schiff...what should I call you?"
Her question is met with a semi-stony stare. And that's about it. It's uncomfortable, but Gwen presses on anyway.
"By any chance, Mr Schiff...you wouldn't happen to know if a train passed through here, do you?"
She's expecting the same look from before, but he just shakes his head and apologizes and states that Beachville has no train-yard, therefore a train couldn't have gone through town. And then he's on to the next name before Gwen can say anything else.
With her stuff in her hands, and a box of cookies that smell a lot like white chocolate macadamia, Gwen steps back and lets the next person go. Not like she really has no choice. She sighs and turns, shaking her head and muttering 'good talk, dude. thanks!' as she heads somewhere out of the way to look at her map and figure out what to do next.
