they show you how to swim
WHO: All Dualizens, old and new
WHAT: Your regularly scheduled NAPs event for the month
WHERE: Dualis Oasis
WHEN: Nov. 7-10
WARNINGS: Please use these if applicable!
Look at all of these bright, shining new faces! There’s even a few less bright, less shining faces - maybe even a few folks without faces - but hey, this city welcomes all types. Chances are, if you’ve just arrived, you're seeing some pretty crazy things, unless you're used to an eye-blinding amount of neon, robots, weird-ass technology, magic, and an omnipresent police force...and hey, if you are, congrats, you're gonna settle in juuuuust fine. But for the rest of you, the Head knows this has gotta be pretty overwhelming, right?
Well, since your quaint individual processing units are probably having a hard time, why not link up with another one? By which the Head means...
Hello, new citizens of Dualis,
and welcome to your monthly Network Adjacency Protocol~!
NAPs are a monthly community networking event similar to the Earth concept of speed dating! Two citizens (new arrivals and old hands alike) are placed at a table together with a handy cue card of queries to help break the proverbial ice. Ask queries and receive results, or ignore the card and yeet yourself straight into a brand new friendship! But don't be too shy, you've only got ten minutes together, and if you just sit in silence for the whole ten, the Network Admins are likely to come supervise and try to repair the uplink through a mild shock to the ol' central nervous system. You might find yourself saying all sorts of unintended facts about yourself if that happens...probably better to just make friends, right? Who doesn’t like friends?!
The weather outside may be taking a turn toward chilly, but you can still get your swim on during this month’s NAPs, held at the Dualis Oasis, an indoor temperature-controlled aquatic amusement park with giant slides, swimming pools, and lazy winding float rivers. Appropriate swimming gear is required for entry to this part of the park, but there are a number of shops just outside that will gladly sell you swimwear and accessories.
For those of you who wish to avoid a humid environment or just hate fun, a dehumidified lounge and restaurant offer quieter, dryer spaces for chatting and snacking. The actual speed-friending itself is in progress here, but you’re welcome to stick around and continue conversations with your new friends.
So c’mon, what are you waiting for? Just dive right in for fun and friendship - the water’s fine, fine, fine, just like everything else in this fair city. But hey, remember to play safe. No running!

"I'm Naminé. It's nice to meet you Tifa." She lifted her cards and read a few of them before focusing on Tifa's question. "Oh. I draw every day. I go to work almost everyday. Sometimes I walk around the city to try and explore different places."
"What about you?"
no subject
Tifa isn't prone to lying, but some of these questions seem a little personal and there are some aspects of her life that she doesn't really want to talk about with anyone, let alone a stranger. But she is here for networking, so she opts for something half truth, half not-quite-truth.
"I work out and train every day that I can," she offers. "It's too easy to fall out of your routines and habits and then you turn around and realize you've lost your edge. You're out of shape. And it's a lot harder to come back from that. I've never done anything like art. Midgar had a lot of graffiti, but you probably draw prettier and better things than any of that."
no subject
"What is graffiti?"
There was a lot that Naminé didn't know. Most of what she knew was from Sora's memories, which were all relatively innocent.
no subject
That was good advice for just about anything in life, after all.
"It's..." Tifa pauses, thinking of how to explain it to someone who doesn't know what it is. "It's like art on the sides of buildings. Usually, graffiti is done to make a point or just because the artist knows what they're doing isn't exactly legal. Sometimes it's just words, but some people make giant paintings the size of the wall."
no subject
"That sounds lovely. It's sad that it isn't legal."
She liked the idea of graffiti.
"Maybe I can do something like that in my sketchbook."
no subject
The term itself usually indicates nothing legal though.
"You should try. Maybe some of the business owners here will let you paint their walls."
