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!]

“I run a place called Pick Your Poison, I live in town,” Margo said. Hm. What else did he need to know? She looked at her sake thoughtfully. “And, hm. . . I wouldn’t mind seeing those fabrics on my floor sometime.”

Perfect.

It really, really was.

Color Shunsui both impressed and delighted, expressions he did not even bother to keep from his face in the slightest.

"They really do make a room pop ♥," he assured her "And the night may be young, and you're no doubt on your way to--"

The sound of an airhorn cut through the air, and Shunsui's sentence, and he lifted his eyebrows with a pause to wait for it to kindly finish, so that he could do the same.

"--charm your way gracefully through the rest of this, but I would hate to leave a woman waiting, especially when it comes to such a newly discovered passion for...interior design ♥."

What could she say? It was never a bad thing to make sure everyone got the right idea from the get-go, and that included establishing who was in charge here.

She smiled over the rim of her sake, pleased. “We’ll see, honey,” Margo said, shimmying in her seat. “Maybe your lucky number’s already up at the end of the night, maybe it isn’t.”

"Lady Luck," Shunsui assured her, as he himself swept easily, gracefully out of his own seat as if the call of the next round itself was pulling him away, with a wink and a tilt of his hat, "always has been a good friend of mine ♥. I look forward to seeing where the dice may lie ♥."

And, with that, called by that oh-so-sweet siren song of the airhorn, he drifted away to his next match, really wishing he'd thought to bring a few cherry blossoms to scatter to the wind for his exits. What a missed opportunity!
