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

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.

"A tiny bit," he confessed. "Though everybody's been very kind. And its not like the same thing doesn't happen those odd times someone new happens into my home grove, so it's probably karmic payback."

"I don't know that we have enough time for me to ask what a home grove is, but I'm curious," she told him.

"I think we have another minute or so," he said, "but I can keep it short. My family, the Blackwoods, we're a coven of witches who make our homes in the Blackwoods. My home grove is the original New World grove, up in Massachusetts, but over the years, some folks have split off to form Blackwood groves - and covens - of their own. I'll be doing that here myself. At least the grove, anyway."

"I don't know a lot about witches," Rey admitted. "Mostly what little I've seen on TV and I have a feeling that's not accurate."

"Likely not," Adrian said. "Or, if they are, who knows if they're accurate to my kind of witchcraft. Though the one other witch I've met on the island seems to have a mostly complementary style, which is something of a comfort."

Just wait until he learned about mana and spell slots. Nonsense things.

"I didn't even realize we had another witch in town," Rey admitted. "I really do need to get out more."

Yeah you did.

Adrian's response was cut off by the buzzer and he gave her an apologetic smile. "That's what I'm trying to do," he said, getting up. "Nice meeting you, Rey. If I see you at the bar later, let me buy you a drink? We'll count it as extra socializing credit."

"Sure," she smiled. "I'll be around for a while."
