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!

The voice made him jolt upright and left him staring at the woman across from him. She'd died here, he'd been told. So this must be the doing of the Lifestream. But was she this world's Aerith, or his?

Don't tell Cloud... So she was from this world.

He relaxed a bit, a small bittersweet smile melting slowly onto his face. The last time he'd seen her...

"Blue, like the sky," he replied once he remembered how to speak and be polite. "Are you still afraid of it?"

She understands that smile--she's seen it before--and returns it with a gentle one before shaking her head at his question. "No way. There's too much I want to see. Besides, the flowers like the sun."

"And the flowers... Are you still selling them? Because I was talking with my roommate about buying some flowers earlier," he stated casually, trying to keep this as normal as possible. He didn't need to be blurting out that he was glad she was alive, or whatever else. It might freak her out.

"It's been a while since I've sold them, but they're still growing. I think I can give you a discount," Aerith said, hoping he wouldn't wonder too much about what she'd been doing in the meantime. She's aware this is an awkward situation, but she and Zack have been good about tap dancing around those before, so she'll keep doing it now. "You have a roommate?" Was there not enough room in the apartments? Not that she imagined Zack would mind much... "Who is it?"

"Well, flatmate. I think we'd try to kill each other if we had to share a room," he mused, chuckling at the thought. "His name is Riku. He's my travelling companion." And also a clone of Sephiroth that I'm raising, but did she really need to know that right this second? What was her relationship with Sephiroth in this world? Was it positive? Negative? Neutral? Better not risk it.

Aerith gasps, pointing a finger at Zack. "Mutual friend!"

Don't mind her, she's just excited to make the connection from Riku's vague allusion earlier.

"Hehe, I actually met him earlier. He must have gotten pushed into speed dating by one of the mascots, poor guy. He got so flustered when I suggested he was trying to find a girlfriend."

She obviously hadn't felt sorry enough for Riku to not tease him. Teasing is just her default in getting to know people.
