[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. ]

[OH NO DID SHE SAY SOMETHING WRONG, she just wanted to return the compliment honestly!! She almost asks if she made her feel uncomfortable so she can apologize, her lips curving into a concerned frown for a moment, but as Nike moves on in topic, she thinks it might be best to just go along with her. If the opportunity arises later, she'll ask and apologize then.]

That's very kind of you to offer, thank you. Although you don't have to if you don't want to. [There'll probably be a lot of social and cultural problems she'll run into, thanks to knowing so little about this stuff, but she doesn't want Nike to feel obligated about helping her. Androids might be obligated to help humans, but she doesn't think it's the same the other way around.] But likewise, if there's anything you ever need assistance with, just let me know and I'll come right away.

But I want to. So I'll do it.

[It was all he can say on the matter as she doesn't understand the reason 2B didn't think she wanted to. The idea of having someone to watch out for was something she really liked to do. It'll help in distracting her from thinking too deeply about her home, her family, and her responsibilities. After all, she did make a promise to a certain precocious brat that she would never leave their side as long as they remain king. How can she keep her promise when she was in another world?

She needs to forget those thoughts, if she wanted to be of use to anyone.

2B's own response was enough to pull her back from her mind. A smile spreading as she can't help wonder if it would be okay to make a promise with her.]


Do you want to pinkie promise it to seal the deal in always helping each other whenever one of us needs it?

[Did andriods even do those? Pinkie promises. She couldn't help feel curious about it.]

Pinkie promise? [She looks down at Nike's hands as well as her own, obviously curious and a little bit confused even with her blindfold.] I know what a promise is, but I've never heard of a "pinkie" promise...

[And pinkie here refers to their fingers, right?? Maybe she's just assuming, but that's all she can think of. Or maybe it's in reference to the color pink. That makes even less to her though.]
