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!]

Unfortunately for Bender Naomi was pretty careful with the small amount of cash that she usually carried with her.

"I'm part human and part Ktarian," Naomi explained, "the horns are from my Ktarian side,"

Well, she probably didn't have anything valuable anyway.

"There aren't that many non-humans around here," said Bender. "How'd you get here? Spaceship?"

"I arrived here by a shuttlecraft," Naomi explained, "I got dropped off by the former pilot of the starship that I grew up on,"

"So, not from Earth, huh," Bender kicked his heels. "Doesn't it suck being stuck on just the one planet?"

"It was strange being on one planet, but I've grown used to it," Naomi said, "how about you, where do you come from?"

"New New York in the year 3000," Bender told her. "I came here because I had a little legal problem."

"I'm from 2382, I came here because my parents thought that boarding school would be a good opportunity for me," Naomi said, "legal problem?"

"Kinda an exchange program," Bender lied. There was no point in warning he was a thief beforehand. "You look old enough, how much more schooling do you need?"

Naomi nodded, "I'm a junior this fall, so in terms of high school I have two more years left,"

"Wouldn't it be easier to download the information you need?" Bender took the opportunities he could to be lazy. "That way you'd have more time for the fun stuff."

"Download the information?" Naomi was rather puzzled, "I suppose it would be but I actually like studying," she said.
