Caritas- Saturday before 8:15 pm
It was that time of year again! New people were here! New people to date, get to know, or perhaps make a mortal enemy of!
You never know.
Signs were hung up in front of the bar, both obviously, and easy to miss for anyone who might wander in and get signed up without their knowledge. Above the bar was a banner (in glitter):
TONIGHT!
THREE MINUTE DATES!
GOOD LUCK WBRURBODY
Your hostess wasn't gonna question it. And a few minutes before 8:00, she took the stage.
"Hello, everyone! And welcome to Three Minute Dates!" Kitty greeted them. "If you're new to this, the rules are simple. We call your name along with one other person. You talk to this person, get to know their likes, their loves, their dreams. After three minutes, a buzzer will sound-" Pause for the sound. "-and you'll hear your name paired with a different person. Et cetera. If there is anyone you'd like to talk to more, the bar will be open afterwards for drinks and conversation. Remember that any violence will get you transported into the pond, but also please don't attempt violence in order to flee, that is rude to the rest of your dates. Now I'm going to get off the stage. Have fun, and good luck..."
She trailed off, not going to attempt to pronounce the word on that sign.
[Hold for so much OCD OCD up! Date away!

Round Five: Aloy / Amaya Blackstone
Re: Round Five: Aloy / Amaya Blackstone
Date, Amaya.
This was supposed to be a date.
One that was only three minutes, so you'd better believe she was cramming all of that into as little time as possible.
Re: Round Five: Aloy / Amaya Blackstone
Aloy. Aloy.
"I don't know what any of this is about," she said gravely, "And it's been dumb. So I would love to hear about the rough sketches of your ideas? Because this actually seems useful."
This was the new-and-improved understands-friendship Aloy Despite the Nora, everyone.
Re: Round Five: Aloy / Amaya Blackstone
"Oh, this?" she asked, gesturing at the bar as a whole. "I mostly just use it for business opportunities. It has usually been incredibl successful. But..." She leaned in eagerly, hands on the ready for that gesturing to be put into use tenfold. "This might be a little much, so feel free to have me rein in it....what I'm thinking is we get under the floorboards and set up a whole system and grid ladened with various tracks to move various targets around the room thanks to a whole network of mechanics underneath. Now, I'm still working on trying to figure out how to randomize the speed and movement, so that you don't just get stuck in a rut of just being able to predict where they'll be next. I'd like to make 'em programable, but that might be a little beyond my ken. Either way, the training room then becomes a whole system of moving target. Now I've definitely got some that'll move just fine without all this extra bells and whistles, but you're a bit more restricted on what it can do. And stationary ones, too, and I've almost got it worked out how to perhaps get some of them to maybe fight back. Nothing big, just a little burst of an elemental discharge, but hopefully enough to provide a good incentive to make sure to avoid certain spots on the targets."
