Factor Industries Charity Event: October 18th, 2016

[ceofactor]

Even for Benjamin Factor, arranging this charity event had been something of a challenge. Just as he held great influence in Gateway City, Thunder Corp's influence in Locke was great as well. But with time and money, all things were indeed possible in this case, and the Memorial Dance Hall was playing host to the night's events. It was a glamorous affair: politicians, captains of business, dignitaries, and celebrities had been invited. For whatever controversy that existed, the world legitimately wanted to heal the wounds left by the invasion, and that meant there were a lot of people who wanted to use events like this to either advance that cause, or to make themselves look good.

But they weren't the only sorts of individuals who had recieved an invitation.

Benjamin Factor had also made it so the Numbered would be invited to his little party. Arrivals through the teleporter would be greeted by drivers at the community center, and the same courtesy was extended to anyone who might live in Locke. The only stipulation? Was that anyone who came make an effort to make themselves presentable. If that was a problem, or anyone arrived without knowing, they had clothes on hand for people to change into.

Indeed, it seemed that the Numbered would be well provided for tonight. That being said, their presence would get people to talk, given the presence of news crews making live coverage. Nevertheless... "getting people to talk" seemed to be exactly what Benjamin Factor wanted to happen.

"Of course I am Emi. I don't want to mess up everything."

At the moment she was just out of energy to socialize, being the shy child she was. Dani has been out looking for her friends, just to catch up with them and feel somewhat normal for once..but was getting a bit jumpy too. Too many people near her wings.

"It's just...really crowded and busy.."

"It's okay, you'll be quite safe here."

Well, Emi decided to take a moment to spend some time with her cousin, and maybe help her relax a bit...

"I know that...It's just there's a little voice in the back of my head freaking out every time I get close to a lot of people. Not only because of my wings..but that weird echo."

She wasn't a fan of crowds before...now she was just worse with them. Not enough to want nothing to do with them..just enough to brig caution along with her.

"When I'm out of them, it quiets down a bit though Emi."

"Do you want Amy to take you home?"

If Dani wanted to leave, Emi would arrange it for her. She asked Amelia to come along in case Dani needed someone to take her home.

There is a quick shake ofDani's head, no. She's trying to keep into 'Party' mode and she had another 20 minutes to a half hour until she was able to leave by those memories. Even if she was already ready to go and had talked to most of the people she wanted to...and was tired of trying to answer questions about her wings.

"I can't leave until later...I remember how these things work. from when Mom and Dad had their parties."

[scarlet_devil]

Well, even if people didn't talk to Dani, or Emi for that matter, they still let them be. In a way, maybe that helps if Dani's left alone.

"Alright. I'll be here if you need me."

[prismaticdestruction]

It's fairly obvious she's not wanting to stay but is staying for the good of showing that Dani isn't a threat. She'd be tired of the whole thing sooner then what she was trying to follow. If only because homework and she's still only ten years old.

"...Okay. I might just stay over here until it's time."

"Alright. I'm here if you need me."
