Careers Fair, Fandom High Front Lawn, Friday Afternoon, 07/21/06

By lunch time, the booths were set up, the guests had arrived and there was quaint music playing from somewhere undetermined. Hawkeye is walking around with one of those portable microphone/speaker set-ups, roaming from booth to booth announcing the various guests that have come to Fandom to talk about their professions.

And despite what the mainland weather forecast said, it was definitely a nice, fine day.

"Well, my family has been doing it for money for like... oh, God knows how many generations now. I'm just curious to see if there's some sort of comparable pay scale, since my grandfather always told me that there was no money in working officially. I wanted to see if he was right or not."

"Let us hope SPD's efforts to keep him from reaching Earth are successful and you never have to find out."

"So would you describe yourselves as a primarily defensive force, then?" Pip asked. "Since you seem to be mostly concerned with keeping whoever this guy is away and haven't mentioned anything about counter attacks."

"Though we do launch the occassional offensive, SPD Rangers are primarily a defensive force, yes."

"Is there a counterpart orginization for offensive?" Pip asked. "Someone who could attack Emperor what'shisname now before he got a chance to invade the planet?"

"Some individual planets do have their own offensive organisations, yes." Doggie explains. "Earth... does not, as of yet."
