[WORLD ONE] SPEED DATING EXTRAVAGANZA

Who: Participating coven members
Where: The Palai marketplace
When: Day 49
Open/Closed: OTA

[ Any and all who are in the marketplace will find that there is suddenly a mysterious barrier around the marketplace (that may be eerily familiar to some) -- specifically one large portion of the marketplace with a large number of tables and chairs, perhaps purposefully set out for nefarious reasons.

A few Palai are ushering coven members to chairs, and everything seems about normal. As normal as the Palai can be when they're putting on a show anyway. It's not until a sizable portion of the coven members are seated (and also supplied with breadsticks and small shrimp), that things get a bit more bizarre.

Thanks to the power of the Eltos, a small band of energy keeps coven members stuck to the chair (magic can interfere, of course), but that's not the end of it. On each table, next to those delicious smelling breadsticks and shrimp, is a bowl of scraps of papers. Every five minutes, a strip of paper will pop out from the bowl.

If you ask the Palai, they'll be inclined to explain speed dating to you. Asking questions, getting to know a person, then being shimmied off to the next potential mate -- this is made possible by Elto magic yet again, through flying chairs that transport their holder to a new table at standard intervals.

The Palai are extremely invested in this exercise? Will you let them down? ]


[ OOC: In the spirit of speed dating, each character will have a top level. All who want to respond to this top level can with questions from this post, but the threads have to end at 10 comments from each character. After this last tag, the characters can be assumed to have been whisked to a different potential match. You're free to have characters make up their own questions, interact with Palai serving food, etc. ]

Nothing, really.

[ a shrug. wow, that's a great conversation starter. either way, he's going to reach for the small bowl of slips of paper. might as well humor them. he isn't exactly sure he's going to answer any of the question seriously, but stranger things have happened.

he undoes the slip ... and blinks at it. wow that's forward.

he clears his throat and rather than read it aloud, just sets it down on the table.

read it if you dare? it says "How do you feel about being called "daddy/mommy?"]

[are you a rude delinquent child and you just don't like her or something, akira? understanding that pursuing that line of questioning is a dead end, jeanne eases back into her chair and watches him closely.

this of course means that she's staring at the slip of paper as he places it down and leaning forward to glance at it in order to read the writing. carefully,]


How do you feel about being called "daddy" or "mommy"...?

[wait for it.

oh. oh, no.]


Ah—! To think they would...

[ he can't believe she just read it. he can't believe any of this. ]

You... don't have to answer that, actually.

[ just. incase that wasn't clear. he's really not a pervert, he promises. he wouldn't ask that on a date! or to a friend! or anyone, really. ]

[but would it be a dialogue choice]

I refuse to. [that's what jeanne spits out first, almost glaring at him—it's a little hard to tell if her sudden emotional distress is mostly from the scandalous nature of the question, or her anger at akira himself.

either way, having an incredibly blushing virgin holy maiden across the table from him is probably a new... dating experience...]


I'm well-aware of that, so I refuse to answer such a question. I— Shouldn't you dispose of it already?
