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.

The look on Lily's face brightens considerably. Needless to say, Jasmine does know how to get on her good side at the very least. She laughs a bit, nodding happily.

"I think you already know the answer to that. It's funny to think she used to have trouble talking, but she's always known what to say even before she realized it."

"Yeah," Jasmine replied. "And I think it comes from the part of her that, like, drew us to each other. She was just the person we needed when we started out as Numbered."

Lily grins and nods. "You're right. We both needed... something. Something I don't think we could pinpoint at the time." She gives a sigh. It's a dreamy sort of one. You've sent her down memory lane now, Jasmine. "...regardless. This will hopefully be good for everyone. I know she's worried about certain things too, so putting herself out there... I think it's good for her."

"And on top of that, it gives us a way of standing up for the Numbered that probably doesn't make her frustrated," she replied. "I mean, that means a lot. Especially that we get to do it here..."
