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.

By this point, Billy was four for four on dates with people he didn't know so he sat and waited for Eddie to show up.

"Hi," Eddie said, taking his seat. At least his 'date' with Will had relaxed him a little more. "Kind of nuts, huh?"

"Oh you could say that again!" Billy agreed with a small laugh. "Also an unwilling participant in this little shindig?" Billy ask with a sympathetic nod.

"Oh yeah," Eddie replied. "This sort of thing happen a lot?"

It really shouldn't be a big shock to him.

"Seems to be a common thread" Billy said with a smirk. "I signed up but didn't really know what it was all about... so kinda inadvertently did it to myself."

Billy gave a small shrug and laugh.

"Guess that solves the brain vs brawn question," Billy said, which was totally not fair or accurate but it wasnt like there was anyone there to challenge that statement.

"I just stopped in for a beer since I have a live in babysitter these days," he joked.

"The dates been good to you so far?" Billy asked. "Think 'socializing and attempts at making friends' is more the speed on my end of things. Not that that is a bad thing."

"I think it's more being social for me," Eddie admitted. "I'm not really looking to date anyone right now."

Mostly because the last time caused a panic attack.

"Eh the whole being tied down thing probably isn't as cracked up as it's made out to be" Billy replied. "Too restrictive and controlling." Said the man who totally didn't (so very very much did) have trouble with authority and being told what to do.

"I don't think I really felt that way about it," Eddie replied. As the guy who got married and then ran off to join the military the moment she was pregnant. Totally healthy and not panicked about it all.

Billy was about to say something when the signal for the switch went off.

"Guess it's time to head to the last round," Billy said as he started to stand. "Was good meeting ya, Eddie. Sure we'll run into each other here and there."
