YUDHO
He grins at the two Poppies and grips her hand. "I'd love to see something new! Show me what you've got, sweetie."
He's looking forward to exploring the Haven from her perspective. He's rarely seen it casually and is thoroughly enjoying her excitement. It's terribly infectious.
She's a little embarrassed, standing there in her little pink dress in front of the other Poppies outside of decon. They know who she's waiting for and send her secret smiles and whispers of encouragement, but her heart pounds anyway. Amazing that someone who can comb the multiverse saving so many people would have such a hard time meeting their own boyfriend for a date at the Haven. Proxima fusses with her skirt to give her hands something to do while she waits for him to arrive.
He steps out the shadows in the decon room and into the light for the decon process. It takes a second try to get his passcode right and he's pretty sure he can hear the Poppy giggling. *So much for flying under the radar tonight.* He slips his sunglasses on as the door opens and his eyes adjust to the Haven's light. He sees her standing there in a cute little pink dress and something happens that hasn't happened since his powers awakened years ago.
He trips. On his own feet. Or the ground. Who knows. Muscle memory kicks in and his powers catch him before he hits the ground, levitating him just above the pavement. He rights himself and walks to his girlfriend, smiling awkwardly.

There's something to this.
New York Lore
New York was accidentally built on the grand time nexus
Due to this There are 17 boroughs if you want to get technical
This is because of the 3 timelines
There are 3 versions of each of the traditional 5 boroughs (Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, Staten Island and the Bronx)
Jersey City exists outside the 3 timelines as the 16th borough
The Rift is borough number 17
The rift exists outside of time and space as a concept
The Rift can be accessed from the 17 universal buildings within Lower Manhattan and the Greenwich Village
New York as a result of being on the nexus is a hub of Supernatural activity
Due to this, the fae traveled across the seas to New York in the 1820s
As the city developed tensions rose between the fae and humans until Soho was built and the subways were devised to force the fae out of Manhattan
Most Fae now live in the upper Hudson Valley but those that remain in NYC are hunted by NYPD
The NYPD wants to revive Margret Thatcher in their war on the Fae
The NYPD has an official Necromancer
Where do you live?
I live in Greenville, SC when I'm not traveling and hunting. It's a beautiful city, and I have an office there. Great office. Warm, cozy, plays music that's almost a cover of classic rock music.
