[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. ]

Isn't that what makes it interesting though?

[There's no concealing 9S' enthusiasm, not that he's trying. Having countless answers to one question might be daunting or even frustrating to some, but in his eyes, that only means boundless potential for new information. He can come to better understand mankind with every response, and he can share the impressions he gets with 2B.

How could he not be excited about that?]


Maybe it'll even help with something like picking a pass-time. Other than fishing, that is.

[He'll always treasure sharing that time with 2B, doing something so quiet and peaceful. Without their pods though, it's not exactly the same]

It might. [There's a brief pause, and then:] Although I'd like to go fishing sometime soon.

[It'll be weird without Pod for it, but she's not against learning how to fish using tools like a fishing pole or something else. And, she hopes that 9S would be interested in joining her, even if he doesn't do any fishing himself. He's always been by her side during such times, but maybe it's selfish to assume he'd come when there are other things he could be doing or researching.

But before she has a chance to ask him, TIME'S APPARENTLY UP, and the chair's whisking her away. She'll just have to ask him another time...]
