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!

Which would be a little more disconcerting if Tseng weren't his usual hypervigilant self. There were people all around, so Vincent being near didn't ping anything specific, but also didn't startle him when he appeared.


"We are all a product of our environment," he agreed, continuing his stroll. "I was informed you wished to join us."

Vincent appreciated Tseng self-awareness. It was admirable, especially in such a thick crowd. He rarely tried to actually sneak up on the man. Not that he really snuck up on anyone with any level of deliberateness.

"You were informed correctly. I could put the access the job would provide to good use."

It would also be a comfort, to Vincent, to see the inside of ShinRa Tech. To see that they had really changed. He didn't want to put that concern to words though, as he was certain Tseng would not share sympathy in that regard.

"Let us be frank with each other, then," he prompted. "You are believed to be both a valuable asset and a security risk. Your ties with Avalanche and the WRO put you in a position that could help us and hurt us."

They were both men of action more than words. There was no point in playing silly political games over this. He would be honest with Vincent, and he expected honesty in return.

Honesty is what he would receive.

"You're correct. If I wanted to, I could cause quite a bit of damage to your entire company." Not like he hadn't helped with that in the past. "But I'm told ShinRa has a new face to show to the world and Rufus has hardly failed in presenting it."

Thus far hung in his tone.

"My ties to both are tenuous at best." Frankly, he stuck around Avalanche because of certain people, not all. If there was a need to part ways, he would.

"I've no grudge towards what currently stands as ShinRa Tech. You helped us, in the fight against Sephiroth's clones." Vincent pulls in a breath. "If you hadn't, in the last push.."

It was the Turks that helped Cloud get to where he needed to be, otherwise the an would have been mobbed by three insane silver haired brats. This was the closest they were going to get in the terms of a direct thank you from Vincent.

"The only thing I ask is to not stick me back into a test tube."
