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!]

"Hippies?" Helen said a bit angrily. All right, she might not be happy with the priests, but that did not mean some strange boy could call them names. "They are priests and you will speak of them with respect!"

Yeah, this date probably wasn't going to go so well.

"Listen, hon, where I come from, priests don't sit around getting high and kicking people out," he returned, getting mad. "They preach love and acceptance, not exclusion. Sounds like someone's not getting the source material right." He pointed that the tabletop to emphasize his point.

It's Jack. It's a wonder he hasn't been slapped so far. Night's not over yet.

"You clearly know nothing of the Hands of Uquar," Helen said grimly. "Nothing of the hardships a true priest faces in trying to keep all the knowledge of the wider times safe. You will stop speaking of them now or you will be sorry."

"Lady, I've never heard of them, and I don't know you, so if I'm outta line I gotta say I'm sorry." He sighed and glanced at the time. "If you want to talk about this later, come find me, and you can tell me about your Hands of Liquor. Shall we meet up later?"

"Hands of -! Definitely not," Helen said firmly. "I have wasted far too much time on you already. Good night!"

Jack nodded a "Good Night" back to her as the horn sounded and he moved on to his next date.

That went well.
