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!]

"I'm going to be setting up for Much Ado About Nothing, I think. Tryouts start next week."

He looked at her thoughtfully.

"You know, you could always try out. It's an amateur company."

"Try out? You mean to be in the play myself?" Millie looked both horrified and intrigued. "I... I am not sure I would be any good at all."

"Most people seem to think so," he said, "but I've seen a golem turn out to be a brilliant actress, so I think you'd be surprised."

She hesitated, then nodded. "I will consider it," she said after a moment."

"If not, there's always the performances," he pointed out.

Then he scratched his head.

"I probably shouldn't be selling my business on our little 'date' here, but theatre is my life."

He shrugged.

Millie smiled at him. "Quite all right," she said. "Books are a very large part of mine." She looked up at the sound of the horn. "Oh dear, our time seems to be over. It was nice meeting you. Perhaps I will see you again soon."

"The theatre's always open. And I sort of live there, if you're interested in coming by for a tour or something..."

"I would like that," Millie said. "And you are always welcome at the bookstore."
