Hey, looking for some advice! I need to find something pink. Clothing or an accessory. I've got this really important meeting, and I'm supposed to wear pink. Except I'm really new to this place and I literally don't know where any of the shops are.

Not that I'm lost or anything. I've got an awesome sense of direction and all of that.

Anyway, uh, advice is totally wanted. Not the greatest at picking out clothes and stuff.

Oh, and is there a weapons vendor anywhere?

Thanks!

That does sound like Tokyo. Nobody seems to mind it there either.

There are monsters surrounding your home? [ Well...that sounds ...different. ]

Thank you! I'm certain you can find work here. There are quite a few job opportunities from what I have heard from others.

[legacy_blade]

I mean, maybe some people mind it back home, but I don't know that they'd talk about it if they did?

[Wait, there aren't monsters surrounding hers?]

Yeah. Large animals that are aggressive are pretty common. We call them monsters because they're more likely to attack you, after all. Some people blame it on the Mako reactors.

Awesome! Work is good for the soul

[haruine]

Oh? Why would they not speak on it?

[ No, she feels bad to say that is not a normal thing. There's shadows but she's not entirely sure about telling someone she doesn't know well about that. ]

I see. My world has wild animals of course, but attacks are fairly rare. In most cases wild animals will only attack if provoked.

[legacy_blade]

Don't know. People in Midgar are just like that, you know?

[Animal attacks are fairly rare? Huh. Her world is interesting then.]

Monsters back home aren't like that.

[haruine]

I understand. Normal is different for everyone.

That must make things rather unsafe for people.

[legacy_blade]

I mean, only if you go wandering and you don't know how to defend yourself. But people don't go wandering a lot. Really, we've adjusted to the way the world is. A long time ago actually.

[haruine]

Ah, I see. I guess it's true that no matter what world you're in, people are surprisingly resilient.

[legacy_blade]

Yeah, that's sort of how people are I guess. We just keep going on. We don't like to just fall over and all of that.

[haruine]

Exactly! I think it's very nice to hear that others are like that as well. Though, I am sorry you have had to adjust to a world like that.

[legacy_blade]

I mean, it's not really adjusting there. Not for me. It's who I am.

[And where he's from.]

I'm a soldier, you know? Sorta. And a handyman. I do a lot of things actually.

[haruine]

You're a soldier.... sorta?

[legacy_blade]

Oh yeah. SOLDIER First Class. I fought for honor and the sake of people.

[haruine]

That sounds like a very important and respectable job!

[legacy_blade]

Yeah! I'm looking for something new now though. To be a handyman. SOmeone to help others.

[haruine]

A few of my friends and I have thought about opening a small café here. I'm not certain if it will come to be, but if we do perhaps we could ask you to help us fix a place up!

[legacy_blade]

Wow, I'd be super happy. And I'd have friends I would want to bring!

[haruine]

Then it would work out for everyone! Cafe's are a much better experience with friends.

[legacy_blade]

Are they?

[If he's honest, he's never really been before. But he should go, should take the Cloud and Aerith and Angeal!]

[haruine]

Of course! I don't think there's much better than sharing a nice cup of coffee or tea with good friends.

[legacy_blade]

I've never had tea, so I'll have to see what that's like.

[haruine]

You've never had tea? Oh! That's a terrible shame! I could make you some if you would like to try?

[legacy_blade]

I might take you up on that sometime. Could be good for me, right?

[haruine]

It could! Different teas have different properties and some can be quite healthy for you!

[legacy_blade]

Different properties? Like colors?

[haruine]

Different colors, flavors, tastes, and health benefits. The colors are my favorite part though! Some can have truly beautiful and unique colors!
