Speed Dating & Friendshipping

WHAT'S UP?

Speed Dating & Frienshipping is a (player-run) Valentine's Event hosted by Ren Jinguji and Camus at Shining Karaoke, located in Camelot.

During both of these events, participants talk to all other participants. Everyone is given five minutes to ask questions before they bell rings and you move onto the next person.

The tables all have cards that include simple questions if someone is stuck on what to ask. Here are some examples of what kind of questions there might be. Of course Speed Frienshipping won't have any "shippy" questions or ones that could be implied as such.

Everyone is free to make Top Levels for their characters for before and after the events themselves for mingling, singing karaoke or anything! World's your oyster and so on.

Have fun!

Oh, that sounds really delicious. Maybe one day I could try it out someday soon, or you can teach me to how to make it. I am always looking forward to try things I would have not done back in my world.

(There are plenty of things that have been on his mind and he has been meaning to learn or try out for a good while. Since being stuck in a time lock world while the rest of the multiverse is frozen does make a good excuse to play catch up for this ex Chosen One.)

[pricklybloom]

Sure thing! I'd be happy to teach or make it for you sometime.

Okay, my turn to ask a question, right? Let's see...Are you a night owl or an early bird?

[phoenixwiz]

Well, that is a tricky question for me to pinpoint. Guess that it is somewhere in between: unless I was assigned an early shift at work, I don’t usually wake up super late or too early.

But I do know that Rose likes to sleep very heavily if she doesn’t have anything that needs her attention and Hedwig is normally nocturnal in nature.

[kirijo]

You have children?

[ Another curious tilt of her head. ]

How old are they, if I may ask?

[sos_pilot]

[ Boy, if you thought talking about planes made her happy...! ]

Ten years old! They're triplet trouble makers - Huey, Dewey and Louie!

[pricklybloom]

So mostly middle ground then? [ She nods. ] Nothing wrong with that!

...Though I wonder if there's a phrase for that.

[ Something like 'night owl' or 'early bird'. ]

[phoenixwiz]

Yeah, I am also thinking about the same thing as well.

(Cue a small chuckle from him)

life pls let me breathe...

[currysseur]

( he speaks, and it clicks for Izumi, a delighted smile appearing on her face at everything he describes. not only does it sound good but... )

I understand why Taichi-kun likes you! ( they both seem like high energy puppies. all of it sounds fun but she probably wouldn't be able to keep up with them, being a whole 24 years old and thus crumbling to dust before everyone's eyes. )

[currysseur]

( Sakyo, everyone in Mankai is at least bi. don't try to deny it. but WOW rude much? just because she will eventually let Chikage take her out to curry and get kidnapped for it doesn't mean she's empty-headed! )

Whoa... Aren't you assuming too much, Sakyo-san? ( she's not going to anyone's house. actually, Elsa is coming to hers, THANK YOU. ) Besides, I'm the curry maestro!

( that's... not the point, Izumi. )

[arf]

Right?? When the main guy has a dark side and the heroine has to accept him for who he is anyway, even if she struggles at first, and their love overcomes it before she gets kidnapped by the season finale by a man from his past! Things like that with high stakes leave me on the edge of my seat, and it makes it all worth it when they finally make it!

[ Taichi definitely seems excited to have someone to gush about his shows. ] Back home, Ten-chan is in a lot of shows like that. He was a TV and movie actor before he joined the theater. He's my rival now, actually! Though I'm pretty behind, one day I plan on surpassing him, so maybe you'll see me in one of those shows someday.

[arf]

[ Oh what an awesome story! Taichi is smiling brightly by the end of it. ]

Since it's your favorite, I guess what that says about you is that you believe in the values of generosity and gratitude. You must be a really nice person.

[pricklybloom]

Hang on, I'm gonna look it up. [ She pulls her phone out, because she's too curious now. ]

...huh. I've never heard anyone use "midday pigeon" before, but I guess that's what it is.

[phoenixwiz]

Well, maybe midday pigeon can work very well.

I don’t think I have heard of anyone else saying that as well, Amy.

[fellsound]

( head tilt. huh. that's an interesting one. but the stranger is moving on before Century Egg can enquire further and stumping him with a question.

desert island... the thought of being alone again clutches at his chest and a flicker of pain crosses his expression. no. he can't go back to that... )

... Company.

( a Food Soul doesn't need to eat or drink to survive, and he's pretty confident he can deal with the outdoors just fine. but being alone again... )

[fellsound]

( oh so many questions. we haven't even talked about the elves yet and a whole retconned war.

the term Heroic Spirit gets Egg's head tipping, rattling the words around in his brain until he decides it simply means what it says, much like food soul. this man is a spirit who is heroic? or a hero's spirit?

does that mean people in this man's world can summon the dead? )

What was your master like?

[fellsound]

( he nods. why not. it's doable, right? people teach others all the time.

but that's for another day! first comes doggo. )

She's... very pretty.

( there's the slightest, softest crinkle of a smile on Century Egg's face as he says that. animals are good. easy to understand. not capable of deception the same way humans are. )

[fellsound]

( blinks. he doesn't know much about computers. he's just about got to grips with the phones here, so understanding the concept of AI is not something that he is going to get from that explanation.

but the second part... maybe? )

You're made from imagination?

[revile]

[ We keep that knowledge on the downlow kantoku-chan shhh. ]

I'm being cautious! I— [ Sakyo pauses for a sudden moment. ]

...have you tried picking people up with curry? Are you making that your selling point?

[currysseur]

( ain't gonna stay that way long with Taichi, Tsumugi and Kazunari in their ranks. )

W-well... Elsa-san said she'd never had any before, so I invited her to dinner.

( eh...heh. have fun with that one, Sakyo. )

1/2

[revile]

[ she ]


[ SHE ]


[ SHE????? ]

[revile]

[ All his blustering frustration seems to be gone for some strange reason. Instead he feels............



He's not sure how he feels. ]

You, so you... you asked out... you asked out for dinner, like... like a date... you're going on a date with... with... you.....

[currysseur]

( uh... Sakyo-san? you okay there, bud? )

Date? ( uh!!! wait. ) N-no, I just want her to try my curry! ( of course she does.

but that said... )

Elsa-san is very pretty... I'm sure she has a partner already.

[revile]

[ Don't tell him about the girl you're complimenting that you're pretending you're not taking out on a date when you absolutely are and you assume she's not even available when you asked her out to dinner!! His spirit is crumbling. ]

Jesus, you don't need speed dating. You need to understand how dating even works in the first place. How could you be so clueless? I should've declined your offer of participation for everyone's sake.

[currysseur]

I know how dating works! I've even dated in the past!

( why do you think so little of her, Sakyo-san? )

But that doesn't mean I'm looking for anything right now.

( she's here because she was signed up and she thinks she may as well meet people. no one she's spoken to so far has been overly focused on the dating part of speed dating anyway. )

[peninhand]

I... suppose you could say that.

[ That wasn't the analogy she'd have used... But after a fashion, it worked. Video games were work of arts, after all. Well, hers not so much she'd argue. ]

Well, now I'm made of the same stuff than everyone else. But I guess you could say my creator used his imagination to create me.
