It was a massive undertaking, but he had put out the call to everyone in the area. There were stoves set up with portable heat supplies, tables and a place for music and food. The Adventurer had literally invited everyone that he could think of. Even the trio of Wedge, Cid and Biggs were invited, to foster better relationships with them, as well as the merchants and the people of the land.

The Observatory was decorated as such and with the warmer weather out, there was still things to do, places to see and people to meet. Take this time to invest in that meeting you wanted. Maybe you saw this Hero or person from over the way but never stopped to say hello. It simply isn't possible to know everyone. Until now.

Go and talk with someone, play music or perform on the dance stage, and oh, save some food for those out hunting the ridiculous Gilgamesh Quest. They'll probably be starving.

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

Lydia shrugged, setting aside her sketchbook for now in favor of the conversation. "Depends on what he wants, but I might help. I've missed being able to do photography." Then her expression brightened, excited again. "Invite me to the performances ok? Also if you want help with costuming, I can assist. That's sort of what I've been throwing myself into, to kind of keep myself from thinking too much. Clothing and costuming design."

Zack nodded, poking a fork into his cooling food. "All right I'll do that, definitely. They're mostly backup roles but they were in desperate need of a good choreographer. That's where I came in."

"As long as you're enjoying it." Getting to her feet as she should get some food too. "Watch my book?" She won't be too long, and she does want to chat more.

"Sure. I'll keep it safe." One hand came down on the book just to make sure it didn't blow away or anything. "Go on, I'll be here."

He's welcome to flip through it; see some of her design sketches. Her tastes definitely run to slightly spooky and whimsically macabre, but not bad. This is still a new book so there's not the commentary yet there would be in others, accompanying her sketches.

Doesn't take her too long though before she's back, and brought a plate with dessert items. Balancing it all carefully, anyways, including flatware. Clearly though, there is too much on the dessert plate for just her unless she has a very high metabolism. "Figured we could share, if you didn't mind. I was up anyways." Setting that plate between them where they could get it.

"Oh thanks, that's appreciated! I hadn't gotten much either, and I wasn't too sure how much we could get." Buffets like this weren't too common back home, except for something like a Sweets Viking.

This kind of thing wasn't too common for Lydia either, but she made good guesses and listened. "Not a problem." Definitely in brighter spirits than he last saw her. "Other than working on your stuff with the troupe, what do you do here?"

"Well I got a job as a street cleaner. It's not glamourous, but I have the freedom to move about the streets as much as I want." Compared to his usual lifestyle, it was a change of pace.

"After that I look for libraries or places to relax like coffee shops or cafes."
