3 Minute Dates - Caritas - Saturday night

Feb 15, 2013 22:02

A sign was posted at the front door:

Caritas Presents:
3 MINUTE DATESWith less pomp and circumstance than usual, it was time to start the dates right at 8:00. Fandom alum Bruce Wayne strode out onto the stage with some notecards in one hand and a rather festive-looking drink in the other ( Read more... )

Round 1 [8:00-8:03] willbethenight February 16 2013, 04:03:09 UTC

Bring It On

Round 1: Cheering Section willbethenight February 16 2013, 04:03:28 UTC

Where the cheerleaders can shout encouragement to people regardless of whether they're on dates themselves!

Cheering and dating! Sparkle could do it! Quickly! Between dates!

"Got your date, drinks are paid!
Wow 'em and you might get laid!"

He gave a little hop in place, and then, cackling a bit like a lunatic, he took off in a beeline for his first date.

No, really, who had let him onto the squad again?

Apparently Sparkle was a terrible influence because Jessica went for the relatively dirty wordplay.

"Let's go daters, you can do it!
Make a match and maybe you'll do--"

Which was positively risque for her, but then she heard her name called. It didn't look like Olive was around to blame this time. What the crapping hell?

Oh, awesome, Karolina didn't even know whether Bay was a girl's or a boy's name. It was a lovely name all the same, but not really helpful in that regard.

Guess she was about to find out, though!

Re: Round 1: Bay Kennish / Karolina Dean justbeingbay February 16 2013, 15:22:50 UTC

Bay - who was very definitely a girl -- took a seat opposite Karolina.

"Oh, wow, hi," she said, pushing her hair behind her ears. "So I am totally new to this three-minute date thing."

She was surprised to be paired with a girl, but she wasn't opposed to the concept or anything. It wasn't like she was expecting true love tonight.

Re: Round 1: Bay Kennish / Karolina Dean solarhippie February 16 2013, 15:41:21 UTC

Karolina smiled brightly, although it was pretty obvious she was a bit nervous. "Hi!" she said, with a little wave. "And um, me too. But it's... supposed to be pretty easy, right? It's really just talking, I guess."

Also babbling.

Re: Round 1: Bay Kennish / Karolina Dean justbeingbay February 16 2013, 15:58:43 UTC

"Definitely," Bay said, trying to sound reassuring in the face of the other girl's obvious nerves. "So -- I guess we start with getting to know you stuff? Like, I'm a junior, I like to paint, my favorite color is red and ...." She had no idea. "I'm a Libra on the cusp of Scorpio. Your turn."

Re: Round 1: Bay Kennish / Karolina Dean solarhippie February 16 2013, 16:20:50 UTC

"Well, I'm a junior too," Karolina started, a bit less babbly. A bit. "And I'm from Los Angeles, and I don't think I have a favorite colour 'cause I sort of like all of them. And I'm an Aquarius, and also I kinda have superpowers." She was trying to be more open about that. "What do you paint?"

Re: Round 1: Bay Kennish / Karolina Dean justbeingbay February 16 2013, 16:23:37 UTC

"Grafitti art, stencils, I'm really into Frida Kahlo and Banksy," Bay said, tilting her head. "Go back to the part about superpowers."

Re: Round 1: Bay Kennish / Karolina Dean solarhippie February 16 2013, 16:32:01 UTC

And she'd tried to move along from that so smoothly. Really.

"Oh, um. I have them?"

Yes, that had been established.

"I can, um, make energy shields and zap things. And fly. That kind of thing."

Re: Round 1: Bay Kennish / Karolina Dean justbeingbay February 16 2013, 19:15:39 UTC

"... coooool," Bay said, and then brushed her hair back with some embarrassment. "Sorry. You're probably -- kind of sick of discussing it, huh? I'm just still getting used to flying people and whatever."

Re: Round 1: Bay Kennish / Karolina Dean solarhippie February 16 2013, 19:31:24 UTC

Karolina shook her head. "No, not at all. I... haven't really been talking about it to people that much at all, yet." Because she hadn't even known that long, but that was... not a 3 Minute Date topic. "It's fine."

And there was the gong! Stupid gong.

"Uh, and I'm totally available to talk about it later, too." Was that a weird thing to say? "It was nice to meet you."

Re: Round 1: Bay Kennish / Karolina Dean justbeingbay February 16 2013, 19:34:01 UTC

A little weird, but it was a weird situation all around.

"Same," Bay agreed. "I'll see you around. Thanks for breaking me in."
