WHO: EVERYONE
WHERE: a park by the beach, Heropa
WHEN: All day Saturday the 31st
WHAT: A big imPort charity fair!
WARNINGS: Everyone's traumatic past and all that entails. No really. Everyone's. Please use your own discretion.

There's an imPort charity fair going on down at a park by the beach in fair Heropa, today! You've probably seen it advertised for a couple of weeks, now. In the newspaper, on the network, flyers on street posts-- so on and so forth. All proceeds go towards the safety net fund for unsettled imPorts! Their aim as stated is to ensure all imPorts who come here-- especially children-- don't feel pressured in to registering just because they're worried they won't be able to get a job or have anywhere to live otherwise. They've been around for a while. Perhaps you've received help from them already, or heard of them in passing.

Perhaps you're just lured by the promise of food and drink.

Or perhaps you'd like to try to try your hand at some of the amateur game stalls set up?

Maybe you were just walking past and came to see what all the commotion was about.

Or maybe you're genuinely interested in the charity and wished to put a donation straight in the box, or wanted to suss out the man in charge. (Mandrake's around, talking to potential donors.)

Maybe you've come because you're interested in the advertisement of the charity's free resume building help and networking services for imPorts.

Or perhaps, like any seasoned imPort, you just don't trust large gatherings of imPorts in one place to not go wrong, and you're here on guard in case the worst should happen.

Whatever the case, the weather is fine and the fair seems to be bustling. Plenty of imPort-sympathetic locals are here as well, mingling and generally having a good time. What are you doing in the crowd?

[You may officially begin your memory sharing shenanigans! As per the OOC post, characters don't have to participate in this log to participate in the plot, but the purpose of the log is to help facilitate as much memory sharing in one place as possible to avoid flooding. Side-effects should wear off on imPorts by Sunday night!]

Nope.

[He smiles, though feeling it on his mouth is weird -- why can he look back on this and feel all right about it? But maybe it's just Hiro's disbelief.]

Not a thing. Just endless ocean. Factories and workshops on the islands supply what we need, and there are farms and stuff, so we don't need any outside help. As far as I know, ocean is all there is.

That's kind of crazy. How did life even start up on a world like that? Are you alien colonists? Or merpeople?

Hah. No, nothing like that. At home, everything is broken up into separate worlds. My world is Destiny Islands. There are walls between the worlds, so they're all separated. But they started to break down, so we were able to leave to other worlds. According to a story I've heard, a long time ago, they were all one world. It might have been something like this world is now.

And when you say world, you're not talking about a planet.

Nope. In the case of where I'm from I guess you'd say they're different dimensions or something, but you can travel through space to get to them. They're like islands themselves. The space between the worlds themselves, I guess, would be considered the universe.

But they're close enough that you can actually get to them? What does your night sky even look like?

It looks like the one here does. It's just, the stars are other worlds, and they're actually reachable.

That's what I mean! How does life even work that way ... The gravity forces alone would be insane!

I don't know. Heh, that's not my strong suit. But maybe if someone from my world who's sciency shows up, I'll send them your way.
