Welcoming Cookout Mingle [OPEN]

[derplander]

Who: Warriors of Light, their Moogles, our esteemed NPC overlords welcomed
Where: Aqures Ixen, Old Observatory Grounds
When: March 10, from Noon till 9
What: Lots of Food
Warnings: Mark if it gets weird


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.

"But unlike fruit, you can't rid of 'em by eatin' a WEAPON." He crossed his arms and stroked one end of his mustache with one hand, then switched to the other. "But you can fight one off, is what I'm gettin' from you."

[bloodypast]

"Theoretically, it isn't unlikely that we could fight the WEAPONS here. But I do not know that for sure, given that these are a different type." Confirming, then another pause and drink, gathering his thoughts. "It was not an endeavor most are suited for however, taking our strongest attacks and strategies, along with a great amount of firepower. It was, in many ways, a Do-or-Die thing."

[forcegalactic]

"I know that." He stretched his hands onto the table and rolled his shoulders. "If it were that easy to take one down, we wouldn't be here worryin' about Palitutu rollin' in on that thing."

As if expecting her to come on in cue, the Barkeep turned to the sky beyond the walls of Aqures Ixen.

That response also added slightly to Vincent's amusement, so he kept quiet and enjoyed the last of the beer. Once that was done, placing the bottle back down, he gave his attention more fully to Barkeep once more. "Did you have other questions, regarding Gaia?"

[OOC: Feel free to ask questions. No guarantee on answers, but it'll be fun.]

[forcegalactic]

"Do I got questions?" He laughed at the understatement of the week. "Course I do! Gaia ain't like any planet I've been to and I don't got no idea how it works! For example: is the planet mostly small towns stomped over my Shinra? How big are the cities? If it ain't just an alternate universe of Earth, where did the humans come from? Why's everyone stickin' Mako in places where it don't belong, like DNA?"

His threw his arms up. "Like that."

[bloodypast]

"You're unfamiliar with the concept of a megacorporation?" Vincent asked with dry-amusement. There had indeed been cities, and towns--but wars and conflict were universal. Why else had Shinra started out as a weapons manufacturing company? "Why would humans only be found on alternate universes of your Earth?" Still amused there, as Vincent watched Barkeep wind himself up.

[forcegalactic]

"Yeah, they're trouble, but they came after humans discovered space travel. In my universe, they went after small towns, not countries. Shinra's just as strong as McDonald's used to be a few hundred years ago."

And that was a food company that grew to massive levels as technology grew. It wasn't around in 3014, but humans on both Earth and Mars heard of its legendary power.

"An' humans all came from one planet. The moon's and Mars are colonies, and either Gaia is an alternate Earth, of you're all descendants of a colony. Which may or may not be the case."
