Three Minute Dates- Caritas- Saturday before 8:15 pm

It was that time agaaaaaain! There was a sign on the door and a banner above the stage.

CARITAS PRESENTS
THREE MINUTE DATES


Or maybe, perchance, you totally missed it somehow, and didn't run from the bar before Tino could sign you up for dates. It happens!

And then a few minutes before 8:00, Kitty took the stage under the banner, to a drumroll from the zombie drummer.

"Hello and welcome to another installment of Three Minute Dates!" Kitty began. "In case you're new to this, in a couple minutes I'm going to call out sets of names. You'll find that person, talk to them for a whole three minutes. When you hear this siren-" Oh, that was an obnoxious air horn sound. "-you'll get a new person to talk to. If you got sucked into this without your knowledge, sorry, and also it's fifteen minutes of your life, make some new friends!"


[So much OCD incoming. OCD is up! Date away! A post for Caritas after the dates will go up Saturday!]

"Not that I mind talking to you," Seivarden said with a laugh. "But I don't think we need a date. Wait, I take that back, tell me something I don't know about you."

"I'm sure there's plenty about me you don't know," Gladio pointed out with an amused snort, folding his arms in front of him as he leaned back comfortably in the chair across from Seivarden, his head tilted as he look at her curiously. "I mean, unless Specs has provided you with a thorough dossier on all of us..."

And honestly? He would actually be a little surprised if Ignis hadn't.

"I've got a sister," he offered. "We could start with that one."

Especially since he really wasn't sure what Seivarden may or may not know about him already, dossier or otherwise.

"No dossiers, I promise. I didn't know you had a sister."

She wasn't going to bring up her own during an event like this.

"What is her name?"

"Iris," Gladio offered, pronouncing it Ear-ris, not Eye-ris as one might expect, and he huffed a small laugh, with a fond grin. "You might get the chance to meet her, actually. She's trying to weasel her way in on that Parents Weekend thing that they do here to come visit.

"How about you?" he asked, since it actually did sort of feel like the natural progression in a conversation like this. "You got any family?"

She paused.

"I ended up in an escape pod and woke up a thousand years later. By then everyone I knew was gone."

She smiled wistfully. "I had a sister too."

Gladio's brows went up a little when that was dropped, lowering again as he thought about the implications of that, and then he nodded a little, his expression gone soft and sympathetic. "I'm sorry to hear that," he said, sincerely. "A thousand years? That's a long ass time..."

"It is," Seivarden said, adding after a sip of wine:

"The first time I arrived here wasn't too long after I was rescued. It wasn't the best place to end up."
