Three Minute Dates - Caritas - Sunday night

[bluth-illusions.livejournal.com]

A sign was posted at the front door:
G.O.B. Bluth Presents:
Three Minute Dates at Caritas
hosted by A Matchmaker Named G.O.B.

That's right. It was time for Three Minute Dates once again. Come one, come all, for your speed dating and getting drunk before speed dating!

At 8:00 promptly, the lights went dark. And then, The Final Countdown began... but there was no GOB. After a minute, he rushed the stage in a panic. "Wait, this is tonight? Isn't this [microphone feedback] usually on Saturdays? Wait, today's Sunday? I have no [microphone feedback]ing idea what day it is."

"Ahem. Thank you, everyone, for coming out here out tonight. This is Three Minute Dates. And I am, of course, a Matchmaker Named GOB." He waited for applause..... and then continued. "When I or somebody else, probably Tino, who knows? calls your name, find a table with the other person whose name was called and get to talking and see if you want to make babies within three minutes. Because after three minutes, you'll hear this sound."

A zombie keytarist hit a key that started to play a recorded sound of bed springs... springing... suggestively. Love was in the keytar, apparently.

"And that's when it'll be time to move on to your next date. Got it? Good. Now just remember, if you're a lady 18 or older who doesn't like your options, I'm a solid backup plan. You can find me at the bar after the dates, or just come on up whenever you want."

[OOC: Three minutes = ten comments total, five per person. You don't need to do your threads chronologically, but try not to Joss yourself.

Epic OCD is beginning. For the love of god, please wait until I'm done. complete! Epic thanks to mouthy_merc and also_audrey for helping get the OCD together.

If I made a blatant mistake, like skipping a character completely for a round or posting a pairing twice or accidentally making incest happen, feel free to grab me on AIM or in the OOC thread and I'll make a quick fix. Remember, attacks on your dates will get you teleported elsewhere on the island.

Also remember that most playing should happen on Sunday, but if you need to finish things up on Monday, that's fine.

A regular post-dates Caritas post will go up on Sunday. is up!

I may pass out now.]

Guy has the night off, so it's a mod Tino night for three hours before the dates.

Kitty took her manager job pretty seriously, so she showed up before the dates to make sure everything was going smoothly.

And maybe to mock a little.

Because Kitty didn't know her name was on the list. Oops.

Samus came into the bar with a small frown on her face, not that anyone could notice thanks to the helmet and everything. There was a small card in her hand, once that prevented her from going up to the bar itself and getting a drink, because it was a small card that suggested that she was here as a part of that mysterious mission she was on. On it was printed her directive, which was just as enigmatic as all of her other directives had been:

Be at Caritas at 1700 hours. Participate in the event.

That was all. Whether or not she was expected to participate because these people were supposed to be suspect or potential informants, but she supposed that if the money continued to come in, she'll keep going along with this ridiculousness...

Still smirking a little from last night's exploits, Rebecca was here to drink and look cool and want to bang people and stuff.

So when she heard there was an opportunity to potentially get into not one but five people's pants tonight, of course she signed up. Of course she did.

Because she was a ho go-getter.

Oh, boy! This whole three minute date thing seemed like a whole lot of fun, and he found himself thinking about things like this a whole lot, too. He sure hoped he got to go on dates with a lot of pretty ladies, and, as he got himself a root beer to enjoy before everything got started, he sighed happily and wondered if any of them might even let him kiss them.

This wasn't the first time Cindy had signed up for 3MD, but it was the first time she'd ever done so feeling like this. Even now before the event began, she was sitting at the bar, her skirt a little shorter and her heels a little higher than modesty would normally allow for--not that Cindy had ever had much in the way of modesty in the first place--eagerly looking over the crowd for her potential future dates.

There were plenty of adults here who Cindy would be happy to spend longer than three minutes with. And if it only took three minutes, she'd be heartily disappointed.

Tara had never done anything like this before. But the thing abotu having had a girlfriend for almost two years was that, when she went away, after a while you started wanting ... girlfriend-type-activities again.

Not that Tara thought there'd be anybody here who was right for her, but you never knew. She downed a beer and scribbled her name on the sign-up sheet before she could lose her nerve.

So, the whole idea of three minute dates was a little lame and desperate, if you asked Britta, and so, also if you asked, she'd claim she was here because she thought there'd be free booze or at least free something.

Bruce hadn't actually realized this was happening tonight. He figured he'd just go out for a quiet night and enjoy recent events.

But then he was here, surrounded by this crowd of attractive people looking for hookups and, well, he couldn't resist putting his name down.

Just to meet people. Really.

Sarah wasn't sure why she was here. Maybe it was because she'd been feeling highly irritable for a few days now, and had almost given in to Alex's feeble attempts at sexting.

Also yeah, it was Sarah tonight, not Electroclash. She was wearing the silver pendant with her green electricity emblem on it, but not her uniform. A shortish skirt and a fairly low cut shirt, it was. Only semi-slutty, not 'piss off the parents' slutty.

She got a drink and eyed the people gathered at the bar.

Scott really didn't know why he was doing this.

Actually, scratch that, he knew exactly why he was doing this. For the first time since Jean, he was feeling lonely in a completely different way than he had grown accustomed to. Maybe reaching out for companionship three minutes at a time might help.

And if not, there was plenty of alcohol right here.

Chloe wasn't sure why she was here - maybe because she was starting to get used to coming by on Sundays, maybe because of idle curiosity, maybe out of desperation - but she was two drinks in already, and hoping she wouldn't embarrass herself too much.

A lot of the things Jaye did these days sort of made her feel a little old. Like say, going on Three Minute Dates when she hadn't done it since she was a high school student. See, old.

But she'd also had fun at these things, so she got herself a drink while she waited. And looked at boys.

Jake had yet to pick up on the fact that there was anything... unusual in the air. Mostly because Jake tended to act as if he were permanently affected by sex pollen.

So anyway, he had a drink in hand and was surveying the crowd as he waited for this shindig to start.
