Caritas, Saturday- Three Minute Dates

[fates_jaye]

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!]

"So, why'd you sign up for this?" asked Bender and his ego. "Other than finally getting the chance to meet me?"

"Well," Lana said, barely restraining the eye roll. "Other than that... I think a friend may have signed me up as a joke."

"Hey, I'm quite a catch," Bender protested, but couldn't make it sound serious. "Is that the kind of joke that's funny or the kind that requires an elaborate revenge?"

"I suppose it depends on how the evening goes," Lana admitted.

Right now? She was leaning toward revenge.

"No evening can go wrong with enough alcohol," Bender said, pushing a spare bottle at her. "But if your revenge needs something stealing? Bender's your man-bot."

"Thank you," Lana said, taking it and looking to see what kind it was. "I'll keep that in mind."

It was fairly generic and high in alcohol content. When a bottle lasted all of ten seconds, a robot didn't get picky. "Sure," Bender said easily. "Hey, I'll even lower my commission."

"Commission?" Lana said, just as the air horn went off. "Um, yeah, well, I'll have to get back to you on that. Good luck on the rest of your dates."

She did take the alcohol with her when she went, figuring she might need it.

"Yeah, you too," Bender said, not at all regretfully watching his beer as it departed. He downed his - bottle and all - and turned round looking for the next sucker.
