[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. ]

[A light nod will be given, with disappointment clearly seen in her expression.]

Tell me about it.

[A hurt look will be given to any of the closeby Palai, before it slowly turned to one filled with defiance as she continues to agree with Riku.]

...I don't like being tricked. It's one of the few things I can't completely forgive and forget.

[And she has gone through more than her fair share of those who have attempted to lead her astray or to her own death. She couldn't help be reminded of those moments except in this case it felt worse. She really had grown to come to trust in the Palai a great deal.]

A dirty one, of course! [Her attention will be on Riku as she admits it with confidence as she crosses her arms.] We're going to use their own end goal against them!

[And as Riku so politely pointed it out earlier what it was exactly, she didn't feel it was important to repeat it. Just the thought of whatever idea her suggestion will bring was a little embarrassing, but drastic measures had to be taken. At the very least, she thinks so, and was trying her best to remind herself of it as she couldn't help feel her cheeks begin to burn a little bit at the thought.]
