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.

"Nope, I think we'd like to keep you here as well," Charlie said with a smile. "You brighten up the place.

"That's very kind of you to say," Lydia said, "but I'm sure I shall have to return home eventually." Heavens only knew what Wickham would get up to if left unattended for too long. "But not yet!"

She felt like she should say something about Charlie's hair brightening up the place, but she wasn't sure how to phrase it. But surely no one had their hair like that if they didn't want it to be commented upon?

"We all have to go home eventually," Charlie agreed, "but we might as well enjoy this place for as long as we can! How are your courses going so far?"

Charlie certainly expected people to notice her hair. She changed the color for herself, but she also enjoyed the reactions she got - good or bad!

"I've been enjoying them so far! New Orleans was quite fun, wasn't it? I wonder where we'll go next week! And yourself?" Lydia asked, vaguely aware by now that they were running out of time but unable to not return the query.

"It was amazing! I'm so glad Arden asked if we could stay longer." Charlie turned her head at the sound of the bell and sighed. "Guess that's it. It was great having you as my last date, thank you!"
