3 Minute Dates 21 - Caritas - Saturday night

A sign was posted at the front door:

Caritas Presents:
3 MINUTE DATES


Unlike most 3MDs, there didn't seem to be a host. The zombies were just set up, all quiet, when the lights went out.

After a few moments, music started to play. A man's voice started to sing "Ooooooooh" while backing vocals repeated "come on."

The first chorus played before a voice that might have been familiar to longtime residents came up and completely failed to introduce himself. "Welcome to Three Minute Dates. I gave this CD to Tino years ago, just in case this thing I started turned a sexy, legal to drink in the rest of the country 21. In honor of that, have an open bar, courtesy of me, to make sure my name is never forgotten. When somebody reads your names or whatever happens, pair up, get drunk, and let those beer goggles take over for three minutes until this sound plays."

The song cued back up, singing, "You're hopelessly HOPELEEEEESSSSSSSSSSS!" It was, perhaps, a mixed message.

"Have fun. And try not to bang too many people at once, like I'm definitely doing right now."

Finally the lights came back on. Jessica turned to Tino at the bar, taking a free drink, and asked, "Who was that?" Tino just shrugged. He clearly knew, but he was admitting to nothing.

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

OCD starts now. If I fall asleep before it's done, don't mind me. I'll finish up when I wake up. ETA: That's happening. Final 2 rounds posted when I wake up. Feel free to start on the first 3 rounds now. FINALLY DONE!

If I made a blatant mistake, like skipping a character completely for a round or posting a pairing twice, 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 Saturday, but if you need to finish things up on Sunday, that's fine.

A regular post-dates Caritas post will go up Saturday afternoon sometime.]

Well, what did that tell you, Khadgar? That should just go find yourself a knight of some sort.

"I didn't even sign up for this," Rhys whined.

"Have you not been having fun?" Khadgar asked with genuine sympathy. "I didn't know what I was signing up for either, which is probably dangerous around here, but surely you've made at least one new friend?"

Because Rhys totally seemed like the kind of person to make a lot of friends.

Rhys squinted at him like this was clearly some kind of trick. "I... guess... I did. I had a date with my roommate who is the worst person on the island."

He said, not knowing half the island.

"Do you think you might get along better now, or is he still the worst person you know?" Khadgar asked. "My roommate is a girl but I haven't dated with her."

It made sense in his head, honestly.

Rhys looked over at Kuzco. "No, I still hate him. A lot." Then had to ask, "Who's your roommate?"

"Her name is Faith. She runs around town a lot," Khadgar said. "I'm still trying to get her to warm up to me, but we get along, at least. Can you ask for a new roommate?"

"I've met her," Rhys said, a little excited to know something here. "I went to the office, but there's a moose there."

An office moose. A moose in an office.
