They're here to enjoy themselves as well so a little nervous awkwardness on your behalf isn't going to put a damper on their own night out, you're just there alongside them and the more the merrier. Especially when overtime they happen to encounter other people the know around the place, so you don't have to worry about sticking out.
<span class="mu-s">"Well Carrie here is from there, so she knows better than anyone!"</span>
<span class="mu-s">"Waait, you mean Malton-Malton? That's crazy! What's it like now with the..."</span>
<span class="mu-b">"Ehehehe... uuummm, y-yeah like you said, pretty crazy! You don't uhh... any like... super villain people here?"</span>
<span class="mu-s">"Miami? Not for years, maybe some scumbags that try to make trouble but it's like that in every big city. No <span class="mu-i">supervillains</span>, same as anywhere else."</span>
Although, you're so busy just trying to play along and fit in, that you don't have much a chance to consider your own situation here. Particularly when it comes to drinks, and drinking nervously for that matter. Hastily downing whatever you get without thinking about it. And eventually between as many drinks and socializing and loud music, unable to think about much clearly. Just going along with whatever everyone else does, going with the flow and enjoying yourself until you get carried away enough to start doing what you want to rather than just what the others want to... well, what you want to do but not in the best condition to do it.
<span class="mu-s">"Hey, you want to go somewhere?"</span>
<span class="mu-b">"Haah-haaaah... sssomewhere better than thisss? Oookay but after thisss song!"</span>
Music to dance to, sports broadcasts to scream and cheer at, strangers to laugh and converse along with. A bit of a haze between the lights of the city and the noise of your surroundings. Where are the group of friends you tagged along with? And where are you anyway? Oof... maybe you shouldn't have done this on your first night out here, in such a strange place to you.
