[MINGLE, ESPECIALLY TO NEWCOMERS] ROOFTOP FESTIVITIES!!!

WHO: All!
WHAT: Rooftop festivities!
WHERE: On a rooftop of an office building in the second open district!
WHEN: 8/14, evening!
WARNINGS: alcohol, tba as it goes


Banner displayed inside the train station, outside city hall, and on the most used residence buildings.

Follow the arrows.

So you're unaware. Maybe new. Or maybe you just didn't care the first time you saw it. That's fine. Between the banners hanging around key areas, and the flyers quickly drawn up in a similar fashion scattered across the city, it's hard not to know something is going on -- and there's helpful arrows, chalked on building walls and the streets the day of the party, to let people know where to go.

The Rooftop

A splendid scene awaits those who travel heavensward. Fairy lights connect the corners of the roof access building to metal poles at the corners of the building itself, lifted by cylindrical supports where needed, each one held straight by pots filled with well-packed dirty and stone. There's multicolored stars hanging from some of the lights, while various painted flowers hang on others, and what greets the ears first is some royalty free party music played from a CD player off the the side.

There's a long folded out table in the center for those who'd like to share cuisine, just set and serve yourself! Nearby is a space for Daan to do some bartending as well, a man who can make a multitude of cocktails and mocktails for those who want something less alcoholic. Also, pints of various ice cream flavors in a cooler!

Don't worry -- they won't have any odd effects on them, Don verified the lack of them herself. Not all of them are normal. Think loaded baked potato weird.

For those who'd like a quieter space, there's beanbags and a swirly, fuzzy carpet to sit on more away from the center of the party area. This'll be a great time to play some games, such as truth or dare, spin the bottle, and... whatever else you play at parties. Get to know your fellow man and such. Play the violin.

Naturally, no party... hosted... by Don Quixote would be without a space to fight, if one wishes to show off a little! It's also taking place on a swirly fuzzy carpet, just so no one smashes their head in, and there's a neat little banner hanging down from a string of lights that says thus:

WIN THREE MATCHES AND A PRIZE AWAITS THEE!!!!!!!
- NO KILLING
- HANDS ONLY


What the prize is, no one knows. But come find Don Quixote with your battle scars and she'll grant it -- and stick around a while, 'cause this party's gonna end with a bang... that is, with homemade fireworks donated by "a friend" through Junpei.

Anyway, have fun!!! Share words about your worlds!!! The society your characters are from, the cuisine they've brought, how they're working out in the city -- help the new kids along, too. There's more vets here now than there were a few months ago, after all.

[a little apprehension bleeds out of his posture at that question (he was for sure anticipating, and dreading, something more personal). he brings up his cocktail for a sip while mulling over his response, eyebrows drawn into a thoughtful furrow.]

Zero consequences, huh?

[hmm. hmmmm. he taps his index finger against the side of his glass. this is a tough one, Reno, good job. then he raises his eyebrows and tilts his head as though conceding some point to himself.] There are definitely some Conatix Industries execs I'd like to give a piece of my mind, if I could ever track them down. But, [now he cracks a rueful, lopsided little smile,] games aside, there's no such thing as zero consequences, is there?

[another sip from his cocktail, and then,] So how does this work, do I ask you 'truth or dare' now? I think I was fifteen the last time I played this game.

[ and I oop— Reno resolves immediately never to get into the specifics of what exactly ShinRa Electric Power Company was working on other than electric power. ] A piece of your mind or a piece of [ Reno brings up his fists in a mock defensive posture ] a piece of your mind?

[ even though he doesn't know what Conatix Industries is, the way Kaidan says the name is so similar to how the AVALANCHE members would say ShinRa, so he thinks he can probably fill in some of the gaps. ]

Nah. There's always consequences for somebody. [ maybe not for you, depending on how stealthy you could be—and Reno could be very stealthy—but always for somebody. no free lunches in this or any other world, he figures.

Reno's grin is lopsided, a little rueful too. ]
Yeah, your turn.
