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!]

Ohhh, this was making having to pretend she didn't barter with Irene completely worth it, and Amaya's blue eyes were shining.

"Oh, I definitely work with any kind of knives," she assured Hannibal. "Some of the sharpest, finest, best balanced blades you're likely to see! And while I don't come across silver very often, I would love to sink my teeth into a project like that. I imagine a good set of silverwear involves a little bit of futsy work, and I don't get nearly enough of that these days! And a fireplace screen and tools? Easy. I could whip those up in my sleep!"

A pause.

"But I won't," she added. "Only my best, completely awake work, I can guarantee it!"

Hannibal chuckled. "I believe you. I don't think you'd ever do less than your best." He respected that about her. "And I can pay in money, meat on sticks, or any combination thereof," he said, grinning.

"I do have a weakness for meats on sticks," Amaya confessed, as if this wasn't a fact that Hannibal was already well aware of and had, in the past, exploited to very effective means in the past.

See, Irene? That was how you bartered with a Blackstone! You'd been on the right track, you just wound up targeting the wrong anatomy with the wrong....

Anyway, this analogy was getting away with her.

"We can hammer out the finer details of compensation maybe alittle closer to the completion of the projects at hand," she suggested, and was now feeling very glad this was the last one, because now she was hungry.

"I look forward to it," Hannibal said. "I'll drop by your forge soon and we can discuss designs and prices, if you like."
