randangonpa | Trash Squad Day 1

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. )

SUBMIT YOUR HOT OR NOTS HERE by Thursday, 6pm PST!

No. Have you?

I don't mind discussing it if you want to, but for the purposes of speed dating we might be better off with a different subject.

[ Ah, did she step on a dangerous landmine here? ]

Ah...

[YOU ARE A CURIOUS ONE, KOMAEDA]

The answer isn't that interesting, anyway.

[a pause]

Gems that. . . destroy things?

[he used context clues]

It sure is! Though I guess I'll need to pick out a different one for you since I already know the answer.

It's very unfortunate. At least it seems we're all safe in this place, though!

I mean, it's a little obvious to say that it's sometimes okay to lie to protect people. Everybody does that. But if we're being honest, I don't think there's anything wrong with lying for your own sake too, as long as it doesn't hurt anyone else.

They wrote these cards with specific people in mind, I see.

[folds his arms and leans to rest them against the table]

Second time's the charm. Go for it.

[whether she gets an earnest response depends on the question]

Let's see...

[Going for a new card!]

What is something you wish you could change in your world?

Another incident with a jelly bean, then? I can't wait to hear it.

[ with that he waves and heads to the next table ]

Whatever I had to do to save them.

It does seem that way, at least if you like dating.

[ Reyson makes a note to look him up, the tablet is a pain to navigate and most of the talents seem like nonsense anyway ]

You'd think mine would at least reflect my actual talents. I've never so much as mended a torn garment in my life.
