[closed-ish] Signs of love overshadowed by dreams

Who: Everyone who signed up for speed-dating/speed-friending! (and maybe some people who just wander in?)
When: IC Date: 6/9
Where: A large booth at the CERES Academy cultural festival
What: Rise's holding a special event to help bring people together at the cultural festival! This may be chaotic
Rating/Warning: N/A thus far! Rise with a megaphone might be a warning though...


[The cultural festival at the school has been in full-on planning mode for a few weeks. Rise is no exception to the planning and included in the flyers that have gone up is a notice printed on bright pink paper and bold lettering for a very special event.

The booth itself has been set up with a small cluster of tables to accommodate for the amount of people who have been signed up and even for a few last-minute sign-ups. The tables themselves have been decorated with special candles and a tray containing two bowls, two spoons, and a a tray with all the ingredients needed for an ice cream sundae.

At the front of the booth is a collection of heart-shaped name tags with all of the names of each individual whose signed up, along with a number attached. Rise will smile at each person, handing both the name tag and a small envelope to them with instructions not to open it until she says so.

It’s only when everyone has arrived and is crowded inside the booth that she pulls out a megaphone (and really, who gave her that?) and she turns it on.]


Hello ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to the Cerealia School Speed-Matching event! Meeting people can be really hard here, but don’t worry, we’re making it easy! You’ll see that the tables all have numbers assigned to them. On my count, open your envelopes and see who you’re starting with. When the bell rings, switch partners! Seems pretty simple, huh?

[Nobody gets to get a say in this apparently, but they may see one Yu Narukami who’s sitting on the table behind Rise just watching everyone casual as can be. Why is he wearing glasses? Who knows.]

Okie dokie! Let’s get this show on the road! On your mark…get set…open!

[Hope you’re ready, colonists. Inside each envelope is a starter number for the first match, and also a list of starter questions for asking people about themselves. Some people have lists corresponding with the speed dating route, while others are for the “friends only” route. But wait…what’s that? Some of those lists are crosswired? Your character would try to mingle with everybody and flirt anyway? Well hey. At least people will be talking and mingling.

Oh, and don’t mind the people who may wander in and out of the event. Rise will try to moderator the event to her best ability but hey, she’s pretty social herself. Some people are bound to slip in and out under her watch. Have fun! And remember, beware of the bell! (Or Rise announcing "SWITCH" in a loud voice via megaphone, same thing.)]

[ooc: Hello everyone, welcome to the speed-friending/dating event! Thank you to everyone who signed up; above you’ll see a list of people and numbers for you to pick from! Pick your number and your friend/date by visiting the number generator to randomly pick a number to match your character with! Feel free to post top-levels inviting others to just tag in or tag around, too, without using the RNG. Any questions, please hit me via PM or on plurk at [plurk.com profile] alternatively]

[ Thankfully, she's wholly intrigued in what kind of special attack a walking, talking skeleton man could have. It sounds like something she just has to see. ]

Go ahead.

[ It's gonna be the coolest special attack you've ever seen. Just you wait! He rubs his hands together excitedly, before pulling a bone out from some...where. ]

Very well! Prepare yourself to be razzled, dazzled, and bamboozled beyond your wildest dreams!

[ He stands, preparing to do the special attack! IT'S GONNA BE SO COOL HE REALLY DOESN'T GET TO SHOW THIS OFF ENOUGH -

Before literally anything happens, a small white dog zips through the room, jumps over the table, and swipes the bone right of out of Papyrus's hand and into his mouth before scurrying off to regions unknown. ]

[ She has no earthly idea what to expect from him, so when that dog jumps up from nowhere and bounds away, she's jumping a mile out of her skin and watching it with wide eyes. Was it a dog? Or a white blur of fuzz? Who knows! ]

That's...that's actually cool. [ Low as her voice may be, it's not missing any of the wonder one would expect from a screech of delight. ]

[ She...still thought it was cool?! Even though that pesky dog yet again managed to ruin a successfully utilized special attack? ]

[ Suddenly (and inexplicably), he's blushing very deeply. For her to recognize his special attack as cool without even seeing it in its full glory...oh, she must be very special indeed!! The rare sort of person who can appreciate Papyrus almost as much as he appreciates himself!

He beams. ]
Do you really think so? - Ah! Your dating skills must be off the charts! Tell me! What is your name?

[ Be still his non-existent heart, HE MUST KNOW. ]

[ Huh...this has certainly never happened before. I mean, how often is it she's complimented? Not much at all, really, and by a skeleton too?! Goodness. So, naturally, she stumbles a bit over her words before clearing her throat. ]

"Lucy" is fine.
