Summer Solstice

Summer Solstice Fair


The sun is shining, the Mognet is working again, and the summer solstice fair is here! The WRO hopes to makes this an annual thing, but this is the first year they're doing it. Everything you could ever want from a fair is here and open to the public.

*Fair Rides: Ferris wheels, a mini rollercoaster, that thing that looks like an octopus and spins around--the WRO spared no expense to make sure everyone would have fun here today. There's even a gravity ride that takes you up to the top of a pole and then drops you!

*Food: So much food. So much unhealthy food. Funnel cakes, hot dogs, burgers, ice cream, you name it. And it's all fairly cheap too, since the WRO promised to pay for half of what the merchants sell!

*Carnival Games: And most of them aren't even rigged! The Gold Saucer donated games for the fair and there are so many games. There's your standard shooting games, some basketball games, a dunk tank, hoop tosses, you name it. A few are rigged, though, so buy beware! There's also a few card tables set up in a tent for those who like their games a little less wild.

*Speed Dating: ...yeah, the WRO has no idea. This came with the Gold Saucer stuff, along with a Cait Sith and Moogle mascot pair that will coax anyone they can into sitting down and participating.

*Job Fair: With the influx of new arrivals, both native and Streamers, some employers see a golden opportunity to get some jobs filled! In one corner of the fair is another, mini-fair fill with tables and presentations on various workplaces: the WRO, ShinRa Tech, the volunteer emergency services of Edge, and the Highwind Air Taxi Service, just to name a few. Anyone of working age is welcome to wander in and have a look around.

Of course, the fair is taking up the entire center of Edge, so there's lots more to see and do!

When he tried to leave after the rather unfortunate speed date he'd had with Lea, the mascots pointed him toward a different table. Rude would have turned right back around and left, but it was Zack Fair. He'd heard that he was back in the land of the living, but he hadn't encountered him yet.

Might as well make the most of this opportunity. He made his way to the table and sat down. The first thing out of Zack's mouth was an asinine question that he wasn't going to answer.

"Zack Fair," he said, in an attempt to get the ex-SOLDIER to look up at him and away from the card he was reading from.

Oh, a familiar voice! Which, granted, wasn't too unusual in this place since it was a parallel of his world, but still.

"Rude of the Turks," he responded in kind, looking up from his card. Nothing seemed different about this Rude, so that was a plus. "Speed dating, huh? I didn't figure you for that kind of guy."

He wanted to make a comment about Reno, but after how awkwardly things had gone with Rufus after mentioning Tseng... Well, he might keep those things to himself from this point forward.

"I'm not." He gestured over toward the mascots. "I was avoiding a scene." The last thing ShinRa needed was one of the Turks getting into an altercation at the speed dating tent. Not the sort of publicity they needed.

"How's life?" Rude asked.

As for Reno, if Zack did ask, he might find that some things aren't so different in this world than they are in his own.

"Ah. Mmhmm. I see." He nodded in agreement. "They're very pushy, aren't they? But hey, I get a speed date with tall dark and handsome from the Turks, so I can't complain, can I?" He's teasing, of course. Rude is attractive, but Zack's not interested. Sorry.

"Life is fine. I woke up in the strangest place the other day and can't seem to get back home, but oh well. That's how life goes sometimes, right?"

"Incredibly." He chuckled at the compliment. "Don't tell Reno, he might get jealous," he joked in return. Reno wouldn't actually be jealous of it, but Zack might not know that.

"That's life," Rude agreed. "I take it you're the one that asked Rufus about Tseng?" Gossip like that travels fast, what can he say?
