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.

"To tell you the truth I let Ed handle all that stuff." says Ron "I know it's popular to have some poor soul out in the desert to give updates on whatever the hell is going on out there. But we at Channel Four just don't do that. we have our hair to think about."

"I take it you have ambitions to be in the news room." says Ron. He thought it was cute.

"Something like that," she said, crossing her arms. "Though I think it's possible to care about my hair and cover what's going on in the Middle East."

Ron looked over Rory's hair. "Obviously you and I don't have the same hair standards."

"So what do you hope to do in the news area? Correspondent? Wardrobe? Secretary?"

"Overseas correspondant," she said. "More likely in the textual media area rather than television."

Ron nodded. "Well then you won't have to worry about your hair too much."

"I like having pretty hair," she replied. "It's a thing."

"I have a thing with it too." says Ron "I actually think it's required of all news people. A thing with hair."
