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

[throughaphase]

Caritas sort of looked like a Party City threw up, because Tino had offered to do the decorating. Of course there were balloons, streamers, glitter though it was hard to tell where it was supposed to have come from, confetti on the tables, and a butcher block banner up over the stage with "THREE MINUTE DATES" written in what was maybe paint? It sort of looked like puff paint but that had to be way too much work, right? Right?

A couple minutes before 8:00, Kitty took the stage with the zombies playing her on, and she shushed them to stop. "Hello and welcome to another Three Minute Dates!" she greeted them. "You know how this goes, unless you don't. Your names will be called into pairings every three minutes. You get together, you talk, the buzzer sounds, you go to your next table. If three minutes isn't enough time, maybe hang around a little, scope them out at the bar. And if you hate it, you just have to last five sets of three minutes, I believe in you."

She wasn't sorry if Tino signed any of you up. She was sorry for the letter banner he'd strung up over the bar reading "Have Good Banging," which was terrible English and odds were excellent that it did not stay up all night.

Re: Round Five: Adrian Blackwood / John Constantine

On the one hand, it was a little sad that this was the last round of dates. Adrian had been having a genuinely good time and there were still plenty of people he would have liked to meet. On the other hand, his ability to make small talk from pretty much nothing was receding rapidly, and he was glad that the evening was going to end before it ran out completely.

"Hello there," he said, offering his last date a smile. "Might be a bit forward, but can I buy you a drink? I finished mine before this started and four rounds of constant chitchat is taking a toll."

Okay, cool, so this whole event was cursed. Good to know. Nothing against Professor Smith, of course, she seemed overall pretty cool, but going from Cal to four professors in a row was a pretty dismal showing for any attempts to practice flirting.

"Hi, Professor Smith," she said, attempting a smile. "You know, I bet jello shots would make this thing a lot more entertaining."

"Boc!" Raiden exclaimed when he saw his last date of the evening. "How's it going, buddy? I haven't seen you in a hot minute!"

"Miss Gale, good evening," Lydia said to her final 'date.' "I hope you have enjoyed yourself thus far?"

"Eleanor, hi!" Gray exclaimed. He might be more than a little hyper at this point, but it beat asleep? "We never talk as much as we should. Are you having fun tonight?"

Round Five: Hannibal Lecter / Stewart

On the one hand, this might not be the high point of Hannibal's evening. On the other, they did seem to share an interest in ludicrously shaped food, so maybe it wouldn't be too bad.

Round Five: Illyana Rasputin / Sabine Wren

"Haven't seen you in a while," Sabine greeted her with a smile.

Sabine's fault? Probably Sabine's fault, yes.

"Hi," Rey greeted him. "I think I've seen you at these before."

Totally possible they'd actually had a date before, three minutes went by super fast.

Round Five: Lana Beniko / Thor Odinson

See? This hasn't been so bad.

It wasn't over yet, Don. There was still time for explosions and bloodshed.

...probably not, but you never knew.

Thor inclined his head to his final 'date' and said, "Good evening. I am Thor, son of Odin. I do not believe we are previously acquainted."

“Well now,” Remy said, tilting his head with a pleasant smile. “Of all my dates so far, you already have a lead on most memorable.”

What with the mononym and the half mask and all.
