The day had left Vincent restless. There was little to do as it was simple orientation. Learning the new building, the new rules, the expectations. Hearing people complain to him about appearances, particularly his being too intimidating, too much, that arm, that gun... He would find resolution for at least one of those two thing.

The gun was staying.

But being within ShinRa Electric (now called Technologies, as if some people would forget entirely about its history if its given a different name) provided Vincent with a deep ...nostalgia. That was the correct word for it because he certainly wasn't thinking about the darker aspects of his past.

He thought of Lucrecia. It wasn't ShinRa that caused everything, it was a few people, certain names dashed from the company's history. She made her own mistakes as well. Vincent wasn't sure if it was entirely fair that she spend the rest of her existence sealed inside a crystal.

He'd forgiven her. Her son was gone, her husband gone. Even if she were dead within the crystal it would do her far more of a service to provide her with an appropriate burial. Hojo and Sephiroth had hardly been given their own though their effects on the world were more prominent.

Vincent knew he wasn't going to be the one to open the crystal though. He'd tried. IT required more than what he had at hand, except now he had ShinRa Technologies at hand... only the person he felt he could actually broach the topic with wasn't in the office.

Tseng wasn't entirely difficult to find. Quiet bar, evening spent with just himself and a drink. Vincent could appreciate the aesthetic of it as he sits down, hair freed from the annoying pony tail though still suited up.

"Tseng."

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!

[[Feel free to make your own top levels! Welcome to Edge of Life!]]
