Factor Industries Charity Event: October 18th, 2016

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.

Jacob can't help but smile at Nux's eagerness. It's contagious, and Jacob is eager for him as well. He really hopes that Kirara gives Nux the time of day.

"I certainly don't mind waiting. I might wander a bit if I see someone I know, but I shouldn't be too far from here. Best of luck to you. I hope you get her to dance."

He raises his glass, as though a toast to Nux, giving another warm smile.

"Oh! Yeah, go ahead and wander," he says, nodding eagerly, clearly anxious to go off and look for his chance to wow Kirara with his new hat. "Thanks for the wishes though! I'm g-gonna hope for the best. If I d-don't see you again for awhile, have fun tonight, OK?"

Jacob nods back.

"Thank you, I most certainly will. You do the same."

"Yeah! OK, uh, thanks!" Nux answers excitedly, turning and starting to work his way through the crowd with his new hat perched jauntily atop his bald head.
