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!

"Yeah, he is. We're going to meet up for food later, but we don't have any plans other than to enjoy the festival as much as we can today." Isa and Lea would have to work during the rest of the festival. Which might be a good thing the way Lea had been throwing money around this morning.

"I think that's just exactly enough plan for a day like today." Kids needed time to be kids. Tifa knew it wasn't exactly something that had been a luxury for most before Meteor. She was glad WRO had put on the fair. Everyone needed time to relax and kick loose for a bit.

"If you get thirsty help yourself to the drinks at the stand. No charge for employees." She gave a bright smile. "And I'll see you at work later!"

"Thanks. I'll see you then!" Isa waved and headed back in the direction he was going before their run-in.

Free drinks were always a good thing. He didn't want to take too much advantage even if he was going to do more than enough work later. Jobs which he and Lea had gotten really lucky finding.
