lucetilogs | Speed Dating Year 2

Who: Anyone who wants/is forced to come
What: Speed Dating!
When: Today (Saturday) afternoon-ish
Where: The Rec Center
Summary: Details here, Roster here!
Rating: PG/13/T/R/god I don't know there's too many people

[Much like last year, the rec center is decorated and freshly cleaned, with a plethora set up throughout the main floor. Each set includes a small table and two chairs facing each other. Along with number plates to help direct people to their partners, there is a small pile of coloured paper cards, stacked down, and pencils on every table.

Further back there is a collection of couches forming a lounging circle, as well as a couple of tables with drinks and snacks all set up and ready to be eaten. And yes, the fantastic rainbow cookies from the year before have made a reappearance. No doubt they'll disappear just as fast. The lounge area has a recycled sign from last year that says, "If you find yourself on a turn without a date, come hang out!", and this year, a new weird-looking potato man is hanging on the wall. ...But whatever.

All in all, the whole place looks ready for a big event, and when enough people have gathered - and the clock ticks to the agreed starting time - Teddy and Billy step forward to get things moving at last.]

Hey, hey! Announcement time here! Can everyone hear me? [...] All right, good!

So, some of you may remember this from last year. If you didn't come then, or if you're new, or happened to get roped into this by one of your friends, then on behalf of... uh...

[He glances down at Billy and, taking the cue, his partner speaks up.]

...We'll call the name a work-in-progress for now. Kurt says he's got it covered.

[His response is a raised eyebrow, because really, Kurt? But Teddy gets right back on track with a smile after that.] … Welcome to the second annualish speed dating event! I'm Teddy, this is my fiancé Billy, and we'll be your hosts for today. I know you just want to get started already, but unfortunately, we've got to go over the rules and stuff first. Everyone should have a list of numbers. When Billy gives the signal, everyone will head to the table with the first number on your list, where you'll either wait for or meet up with the person you're paired with. You'll both have five minutes to talk and get to know each other, for better or for worse, and leave with some sort of impression of them. Hopefully good, but can't win 'em all, right? After those five minutes, one of us will blow the whistle, and then you'll head to the table with the next number on your list. Repeat steps one through whatever, until we've reached the end! Hopefully by then, you'll have a new friend, a potential date, or hey, you might have just met the new love of your life!

[Teddy looks to Billy then, who speaks up next to him.]

The tables have conversation cards, in case you're not sure how to get things rolling, or if you're feeling shy- it has topic ideas, questions to ask your partner, whatever we could come up with. As you go through the list, try to give a little 'yes' or 'no' to the people you speak to- yes for wanting to see them again, no for it not being a good match. Once it's over just hand in your papers and we'll let everyone know - discretely, of course! - who gave and received a mutual yes. You don't have to wait for us, though- if you hit it off with someone really well and you both want to hang out right away, don't let us stop you. We have games and stuff set up over in the lounge area-

[He gestures to aforementioned lounge, complete with couches, a couple of tables, a stack of assorted games, and a snack and drink table.]

-Or you could just sneak off to keep yourselves entertained. We don't judge.

We totally do judge, just so you know.

[Billy elbows him. Gosh, boyfriend, behave.

Teddy just laughs a little, waving his hand as if to dismiss a joke.]

Okay, okay, we don't. Anyway, that's about it. We're going to give everyone one minute to get to the first table, then we'll blow the whistle and let everyone start. Thanks for coming, have a great time!

[They go back to sitting at their host table, and then, after the minute passes and everyone's settled, the whistle is blown. BEGIN!]

(( ooc: directions are as follows:

1) check your roster
2) make a top thread for your character with their name in the subject line
3) tag and be tagged
4) MAKE AWESOME NEW CR FOR GREAT JUSTICE ))

[Sabriel nods in agreement. Cliche or no, the eyes seemed to be a good measure of a person in general. A lot can be said in just a gaze.]

And what would you say is your best feature?

[For a moment, Jack does not even answer. The opportunity is too golden. He just gives Sabriel his best shameless, flirty, just-a-little-sleazy grin.

And he winks.]

[Sabriel manages to keep a straight face for a few seconds before she snorts. Leaning a little across the table to give his arm a gentle smack she shakes her head as she laughs.]

You are terrible! And I mean that in the best way.

[The moment Sabriel cracks, Jack does too, doubling into his hands and gasping to try to catch his breath between snatches of words.]

I had to-! I just-! Ahahahehehe, your face-!

I'm upgrading you to the top of the worst influence list!

[That doesn't stop her from giggling though.]

I swear, you all just feed off of each others' energy.

Oh god- no- please don't-

[He almost gets his giggling under control, still scrubbing at his eyes.]

Zev will probably do something traumatising to keep his place at the top of that list.

Oh I'm sure he will. He is always keen to rise to a challenge whenever one appears.

[Shaking her head Sabriel grins at a remembered memory from her last time in Luceti.]

Like that time we had a nice...chat, the last time I was here for that Valentines thing.

[Still grinning, he settles in, chin in his hands.]

Now that has to be the start of a story.

[Sabriel shakes her head with a chuckle, her earlier flush returning to tint her cheeks pink.]

W-well, long story short he expanded my education on a certain matter quite thoroughly. He drew diagrams and everything.

. . . okay, which dirty thing is it.

[Only encouraged by her blush, Jack goads her on, delighted.]

It's Zev, I still have too many options.

[Pursing her lips, Sabriel gives her surroundings a quick glance before giving her head a short shake and pointing to Jack's cards and pen.]

I can't text-say it here, too many eyes and ears but I can write it for you.

[Jack all but shoves his cards at her, fishing in his pockets for a new pen and coming up with an aqua blue one.]

[Jack's reaction alone sets her off giggling again; as she reaches for the cards and the pen the spell fades and takes with it the golden text. Letting go of the strain was like a cool breath of air across her neck, a small relief of the quiet strain of keeping the spell going but it was worth it for her friend.

Sabriel starts drawing out what looks to be rough figures, contorted and melding together and quite obviously engaged in doing many lewd and inappropriate things. At the top she writes in a small box the word, "Orgy". Then, using another card to help her draw straight lines pointing to all of the different happenings going on in the picture she proceeds to label them accordingly. "Double penetration", "fellatio", "spanking", etc. and all the while Sabriel manages to document it from a rather detached and clinical eye despite the blush on her cheeks.

By the time she finishes the diagram has taken up at least six index cards.]
