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!

Score. He seemed to have flirted at the right moment for once. He'd always been a bit better with men than with women. Unfortunate for him when he was a bit younger, looking for a wife to start a family with. Well, that didn't work out in vastly different way.

"You're really into this me working for you thing. I'm starting to wonder why." He taps his fingers against his chin before pointing at Reno.

"Promise you're not a secretly evil organization gunning for world domination? Because I can't really back that."

Reno stared at Laguna for a good long moment. "That is... oddly specific," he finally said.

He knew he gave off hired thug vibes, but secretly evil organization gunning for world domination? Scarily on the nose. He shook his head.

"No -- despite what you might hear, we're not a secretly evil organization tryna' take over the world." Reno sat back and crossed his arms. Even during a nice festival like this, there were bound to be protesters and soap-box preachers. "I just know a good asset when I see one."

Realizing the potential pun a second later, he smirked. "And you've got a pretty nice asset."

Hired thugs were whatever. SeeD were basically high paid hired thugs, and many people treated Laguna and his team like they were hired thugs. He couldn't really blame Reno for the look. It worked for him.

"I haven't heard anything so--" He interrupted himself with a laugh, hand rubbing a bit at his thigh. "Well, then I guess we have a date."

He turns his phone to offer it to Reno. "Your number, please? We can set a time and a location."

Reno reached for it and punched in his number, then poked Alternate Contact. "Here -- here's my personal email, too." He handed it back with a grin.

lightswitch69. Because that wasn't suggestive at all.

"In case you have any questions. I mean, no sense getting stuck in administrative red tape if we're gonna go on a date, right?" He winked. Even if Laguna didn't end up working for Shinra (though Reno would try his damnedest), he was still considering this a personal win.

"No, certainly no sense in that." He smirks, looking at the email and feeling even more amused by it. He closes the phone and tucks it away.

"Then I suppose We'll be in touch.... and.. also who does the Skytaxis, are they hiring here..?"

He really liked the idea, because his dream had always been to be a traveling journalist anyway. Why not while taking people to their destinations?

Reno couldn't help but laugh. This guy... Well, at least he was determined about his goals. Reno pointed the way.

"They got a table down there, can't miss the logo. Good luck."

Laguna decided to go for it since Reno's hand was in reach. He grabs the red head's hand, kissing the back of it.

"Thank you, sir~"

He grins and lets go, turning to go find the sky taxi. And walk without limping, dear Gods, why did he do that right before walking?
