BWI Airport Portalocity Lounge, Saturday Morning

The Khan family was not known for doing the minimum for anything. Which is why the entire family drove down in multiple cars the entire way from Jersey City to BWI. Three hours in the car of her mom and dad asking if she had everything. Asking if she needed anything. There's a Target on the way in case she needed or forgot something. Meanwhile Aamir kept texting her complaints about Abbu's driving skills and asking if Kamala needed anything.

"I'm fine," was the common answer to everything. Again, again and again. Then there was hugs and fussing over everything when they got to the airport and reminders and more fuss. To which everything Kamala laughed and said "I'm fine."

And then they got in their car and left.

And Kamala was standing in the Portalocity Lounge taking it all in while holding her stuffed sloth and a pile of luggage next to her.

Deep breath. "I'm fine."

...

"Why is there so much glitter?"

Yes to all of the above except for the last one, although Tyr more distantly.

"Resurrection insurance?" Don checked. "Why don't we have that? I had to go to the DMV before I could get access to my bank account!"

Strange, that overlap!

"It's certainly better than some cleric happening upon my body and hopefully casting speak dead upon me to learn how best to bring me back," Gale remarked. "Now what might a D-M-V be exactly?"

Yes, tell him all about it, Don. You know you want to.

"The Department of Motor Vehicles? It's--uh, first off, do you have motor vehicles where you're from?"

He had to ask. Asgard, for example, would be a no.

"That is an unfamiliar term, I must admit, but my studies are less in the field of the mechanical," Gale admitted. "I have heard they are making great strides in such matters in Baldur's Gate, however."

No, Gale. They were doin' some shit there with the poor Gondians.

"Okay, well...you know what, I am not the guy to explain it to you. But your driver's license also serves as your identification, which in my world you need to access a lot of services. I'm just lucky I'm from New York. It's easier there." For some reason, most people who came back from the dead in his universe were from New York.
