Trash Squad Day 1 - SPEED DATING

[chinhotta]

Alright, kiddos!! Gather up in the cafeteria for your first event!

[ The cafeteria tables are arranged differently now, long tables pushed to the edges of the room and filled with finger foods and drinks, and the center of the room open except for a bunch of tall, small round tables which are empty except for a stack of cards, but about the right size and height for two people to put drinks on as they stand around.

Vanilla is also standing on one of the tables with a bullhorn. ]

We're starting with a classic! Speed dating! You'll have five minutes each round! When the horn goes off, that's your cue to switch it up and talk to someone else! If you need some conversation starters, try one of the questions on those cards!

...Or don't! You can do whatever you want, I'm not your mom. I'm going with 'uncle' for now!

( The structure here is pretty casual:
- Make a top level
- Tag some people! Optionally, start off with a question from the deck of suggestions!
- Thread! You can ask more questions if you want.
- Try to keep threads around 10 comments from you maximum. This isn’t a hard limit, but assume a bullhorn goes off around there to signal a switch.
- Pace yourself, kids, this runs until Thursday. )

[agreeably]

Yeah, I don't doubt that. Wanna do these cards? Or we could just sit quietly til time's up.

[lefthandpath]

It was most assuredly not what he should have been doing.

[lefthandpath]

... "it"? Your secret?

[lefthandpath]

... that sounds like an interesting story.

[hopegloats]

[ Komaeda smiles]

In that case it's also good. There's a certain appeal when emotions are running so high.

[hopegloats]

"What is one thing that you absolutely cannot stand?"

[lefthandpath]

[that is. a relief! actually.

laughs a bit, in an embarrassed fashion.]

There's no shame to it at all. I suppose I'm just not as used to being asked about it...

[hopegloats]

Ah, you're probably right. I'm terrible at this, huh?

[ he draws a card ]

"What are your thoughts on open relationships?"

[cluelesscavewoman]

Most aerial God of Wars can do that. I do not think they would be able to make it possible for a human to use, it would be too large.

The same device that a mechanical doll uses to control gravity would probably work better for that.

[fightingoverdose]

Oh yeah? What's the difference between a "Phoenician" and you?

[lefthandpath]

Let's see...

"Has anyone ever made an attempt on your life?"--... you don't have to answer that.

[hopegloats]

[ Komaeda grins ]

In the best case, the sexist article of clothing is probably nothing at all.

[fightingoverdose]

True enough... Okay, got any favorite experience to share?

[plsbully]

[ ha ]

I do largely agree, but aren't there cases where it's better to lie a little?

[lefthandpath]

I do. Defeating them with a holy weapon called Innocence is the only way to free those souls.

[hopegloats]

[ Komaeda grins ]

You must have quite a dangerous life.

[fightingoverdose]

Haha, smart thinkin'! Where's your favorite place to nap?

[plsbully]

So if something is inhuman -- does it not count as a "murder" in your eyes?

[lefthandpath]

--ah, well. I don't really see it as bravery so much for myself, but certainly the people I know in the Black Order are quite brave.

[fightingoverdose]

You seem pretty chill about all that. There anything that gets you worked up?

[lefthandpath]

It is very dumb, but it is something to do to at least pass the time until we're allowed to go back home, isn't it?

[redcarnation]

It is. Isuke likes to think it helps to show how dedicated one is as a person.

[ If you commit murder and then admit to it, there's some degree of confidence going. ]

[dismemberthename]

Sure, plenty does. I was pretty worked up when we first showed up, wasn't I? But you helped me calm down a lot.

[hopegloats]

And you're less casual about it. I'm sorry if I've made things awkward. Did you want to try another question?

[assent]

I admit, most people would not be as aware, yet it is a subject I have read about in my free time. [ She looks sheepish. ] Though that is spectacular! I know that it would be breaking protocol but if you are able to tell me any accounts of your work, I would be delighted to hear them.
