Caritas, Saturday- Three Minute Dates

Jaye was actually at work, and there early for once, which shocked the hell out of Tino. But see, she got to host tonight, and she was actually excited for it. She'd even brought popcorn to watch. Maybe someone could get slapped in three minutes and the slapper would end up in the pond. When people arrived, there was even a sign on the door.

Caritas Presents
THREE MINUTE DATES

Hosted by Jaye Tyler
Reject People! Speedily!


When everyone had gotten there, Jaye took the stage, mic in hand. "Hey there, so you should all know how this goes by now, as we've had way too many for you to be clueless. Unless you're new. In which case, ha ha, suckers. So, dating sucks, so we get you through the process really really quickly. Now you can find out within three minutes that the person you're talking to is not the one you want to spend even four minutes more with.

"Here's how it goes: I call your name, and someone else's. You get together. You talk for three minutes, get to know each other, and then you'll hear this," she said, pulling an airhorn from behind her back to sound it. "Then I'll call your name with someone else's and you switch. You'll hear this sound," she said, blowing the horn again just because she could, "five times total. Any ques- good. Enjoy!"


[Three minutes = ten comments, which means each person gets five comments in a thread. You don't have to do these chronologically, but try not to Joss yourself. Slowplay is totally fine omg.

Also wait for OCD becauase if you interrupt me I WILL come over there. Ready! Set! Go kill my inbox!]

There was some Jack in Jack's Coke for this. Mr. Daniels, meet Mr. Burton. Mr. Burton, I believe you know Ms Atkins?

"Hi."

"Hi, Jack!" Amber greeted him warmly. "So I'm your date for three minutes. Goin' to make it worth my while?" she asked, teasing.

"Sure!" he said, cheerfully, taking a drink of his drink. "What do you have in mind?"

"You're the guy, Jack. You should know these things," she giggled.

"So... does that mean you'd like to have a date longer than three minutes?" He turned on the Burton Charm.

They had kissed already. Maybe a date was next?

"Well sure, Jack. That wouldn't be bad at all," Amber said.

They were friends, right? And she had already kissed him.

Friends, yes. If that's what it could be called. Friends.

"I'd hope so. Three minutes is an awfully short time, right?"

Wait. Was she talking about him or her other dates?

"Very short," she smiled, and waited. Possibly for him to ask her out. Amber might have to ding him on the head if he didn't get to it real quick like.

"We should work on that. You busy this weekend? Sunday, perhaps?" He was trying to get in under the buzzer.

"Want to go on a date?" he smiled. Did...he just say that out loud?

"What about Tuesday because the mun's been gone practically all weekend? Or just whenever? I'd like to go on a date, Jack," she told him.

And that was the signal. "That would be great! I work at the shop on Tuesday, I've got Wednesdays and Thursdays off that thing on Wednesday. So... whenever."

A date? With Amber?

That's a good thing.

"We'll shoot for Thursday then," she grinned and stood. "Thanks, Jack! Call me!"

"Will do!" he exclaimed, grinning.

What was he getting himself into? Something fun, no doubt.
