Tifa's life in the Midgar slum & new characters
#Tifa #TOTP
Slums are rule by "boss"
There are many bosses taking up different territory, and the section where Tifa lives (and work) belong to the boss name "Manson"
Tifa was told if there is a boss rulling the area, within the territory, it's relatively safer in comparison (to places that are truly lawless), but sometimes borders between 2 territory can have land dispute, and people can get caught in crossfire
The shipment container Tifa lives in is smaller than I previously though, it's said to be one of the that can fit on a truck 😩💦
There is one scene where Barret and Jessie hesitate to all go in at once because 3 people will be kind of crowded 💦
Where Tifa lives is truly the bottom of the bottom in terms of social status, even in the slums
Doctor and Ruckus told Tifa not to talk about Shinra badly because that'll bring trouble. And definitely don't tell anyone where she is from because Shinra will find her to silence her
On Tifa's (fake) ID card it says she is from North Corel
Lying about background is easy because almost everyone in the slum is hiding something. One of the rule is not to ask for people's name unless they told you
People were very cold with Tifa when she first got there, nobody cares about why is she here and what is she doing
Shower and toilet are outside, pay the shower lady 3 gill and she'll let you use the shower, but there are no shower room, everyone shower together in one open space regardless of gender
Tifa is an early riser, she showers in the morning when there are nobody else is there. She first brought a big towel to wrap around herself (when she shower), but the shower lady tells Tifa to pay her 5 gill and she'll gaurd the door to tell people off if anyone tries to come near
Shower lady and door gaurd (guarding the entrance to the area where there are lots of container houses)
are very cold to Tifa at first, but as days goes by started to become fond of her
Shower lady later build a "separate room" (with shower curtain) that says "LADIES" for Tifa to use and charges her 4 gil if she shower once, 5 gil (total) if she shower twice, which she usually does (once in the morning, once in the evening)
Door gaurd kill a Shinra troop trying to save Tifa (and disappear)
