[Open, Major Event] 12 June 2066








Over the course of the last week, you'll have likely noticed the buzz and excitement that's been building all around Metro Manila -- if you've been around awhile, you know what time of the year it is. If you're new: well, this is an experience you're sure to enjoy.

The festive mood surrounding Philippine Independence Day is hard to miss. Wander around the metropolis and you'll note that the streets are filled with tourists and locals; turn one corner and you'll see parades, turn another and you may be treated to performances set up on strategically placed stages.

As for Falner, the colors of the Philippine flag seem to be everywhere you look: the kids who live or study at the estate are mostly running around with their faces painted. If you wander down towards the Fair Grounds in the South District, there are a couple of booths set up offering anything from body paint and temporary tattoos to local delicacies. West District establishments The King's Rest and Liquidated also have special treats aligned with the theme of the day. There's also talk about the annual street party which will be held over at the Baywalk later this evening, and the younger initiates are abuzz over the yearly light show held over Manila Bay that showcase reenactments of all the major battles all the way up to the Darkest Vigil.

Independence Day is also not all that's being celebrated, because for Keepers of the Vigil and supernatural communities all over the world, today marks the second anniversary of Arcis Fortress City.

[ Amused at that. ]

Yes, you are going to have to if you plan on attempting to go into Zangyaku.

[ Yes, she heard you say "certainly", but Zangyaku's not a walk in the park. Neither is the ASC, much less balancing Real Life Concerns and Personal Issues.

Hunters never have it easy. ]

All the classes I'm going to take will be the perfect place to get better at it.

[ She won't complain, partly because she really shouldn't, partly because she really shouldn't to this woman in particular. ]

Anyway, thanks for taking the time to talk to me. See you tomorrow I guess?

[ What with the interview and everything. ]
takeitinstride: (never say never.)

See you. Have a good night.

You too.

[ Sophie nods back and turns around.

She needs a drink. Or ten.
