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!

I can relate to being led by your heart. Parents will think their child is reckless for absolutely anything, ahaha! [She raised a finger.] Mines were...

[ She marked a pause. It was very noticeable that for a moment, Monika's smile dropped and her eyes dimmed. Her parents had never existed. They weren't real, everything she remembered was just the backstory her creator had made for her. At best, their existence was that of simple NPCs who didn't even have their own character files. If anyone was to truly be called parents, that was her creator. And how little she knew about him...

Her smile returned nigh immediately, as if nothing had happened. But it was a forced smile. ]

Um... I guess I inherited my perfectionism from them, ahaha!

[Chrome notices the pause and how her smile falters. It seems like a difficult topic for Monika, or there's more to it than she says. However, Chrome isn't the type to pry, and since this is their first interaction, she doesn't feel right asking either.

Instead, she decides to ask a follow-up question to what she said earlier.]

Perfectionism can be good sometimes. Though, you said you could relate to being led by the heart. What's one situation that you took that approach?

[peninhand]

[ Goodness... There was an obvious answer to that question. But she was going to go for a more recent example. One that didn't feel her with guilt and shame. ]

Mhm, well. There was that time when I had a crush on a girl. But I'd been recently heartbroken... So of course, I knew it would be wrong to act on those feelings. Logically, waiting and seeing how my feelings evolve and until I find myself in a stabler situation would have been the right choice. But I didn't wait, not for long anyway. I approached the girl and told her everything.

[ She closed her eyes, taking a dramatic pause... Before opening one eye with a smile. ]

Today she's my girlfriend and we're happier than we've ever been~!

[ Sometimes, stories had good ending-- Even when you listened to your heart and discarded reason. ]

We've asked each other a lot of questions already, heh? [She extended a hand towards Chrome.] Do you think we can consider that befriending session a success?

[illusionaryskirt]

[Chrome's not expecting such an admission, especially to her, who is still pretty much a stranger to Monika. Though, it's such good example, Chrome can't help but smile at the outcome.]

...Congratulations!

[Sometimes it was good to take a leap of faith, and it seems to work in Monika's favor. She then looks at the hand she extends to her. Chrome shyly accepts it, shaking the other's hand gently.]

Um...I think so. Maybe our paths will cross again and we can talk some more?
