Caritas [Saturday evening] Three Minute Dates!

Robin still kind of had no idea how she'd wound up doing this, but it was funny and she could laugh and drink and just enjoy her post-Valentine's glow behind the bar while everyone else suffered.

And in the meanwhile, she set out a pretty little sign.

Three Minute Dates @ Caritas
Hosted by Robin Scherbatsky
Presented by loneliness and desperation*
* beer goggles recommended/necessary in some cases


That done, she wandered by to the stage to take the mic. "So, hi. You know how sometimes you're at a bar, and you just don't know how to talk to those pretty people you're eyeing? Or, you know, you want to know what the deal is with that creepy guy in the corner who won't stop staring? Well, tonight, we're taking all that guesswork out of it! Welcome to Three Minute Dates! I'm your hostess and deeply amused bartender, Robin Scherbatsky."

"So here's how it goes -- when I call your name plus someone else's, it'll be time for you to find that other person and either lemon law them or find your way to true love...slash a good one night stand! Or a bad one. It's part of the fun! And then lather, rinse and repeat for four more times, because yes, boys and girls, you're doing this five times."

[OOC: Three minutes equals ten comments for our purposes. That's five comments per person. Try your very best to get it wrapped up in that time. You do NOT have to do these in chronological order. Do them as people are available. Just try not to Joss yourself.

Remember, if you're violent, you'll be teleported out of the club and will have to make your way back. If you can't get through all of your dates today, you can sp, don't worry!

ETA: OCD UP WHOOOOOOOO]

Vala beamed at Bob as she and her drink sat down opposite the man who was hopefully a better conversationalist than her last date.

"What are your feelings on following the rules?"

He blinked twice.

A new record.

"I suppose that would depend on the rules?"

She nodded. "And your morality? Is it firm or flexible?"

He blinked again.

"I have found it to be more flexible recently." The less said about why, the better.

Vala didn't so much care about why, so that worked out fine. "Do you find your life more interesting now?"

"Yes and no," He said honestly. "Before this, I can't honestly say I have been someone else for a weekend. But it is much more... peaceful here."

She grinned. "See if you say that when we get invaded--hey, can you fight at all?"

"Well enough." That might be a bit of an understatement.

"Excellent!" She'd have to make sure to tell Aly, who seemed to organize most offensives. Or maybe Zoe, but Zoe would no doubt already know.

The buzzer sounded. "It's been perfectly lovely meeting you."
