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. )

[wow who has a dirty mind here, smh]

Which one are you talking about?

[starinhereye]

. . . Never mind . . .

What's the scariest thing you've ever done?

[loveisanopenseal]

I abandoned my old position. At first, I didn't want to . . . no, perhaps it just never occurred to me that I could.

But if I had never left, I would never be able to find the answers that I am searching for.

1/2

[eyes widening, silent for a beat]

[starinhereye]

That does sound terrifying! How's the hunt going?

[loveisanopenseal]

I have yet to find a single clue.

But surely, there is a reason why this journey has brought me to a place like this. I am hoping that I might be able to find something here.

[starinhereye]

Well, if the goal has anything to do with love, then the animals probably be happy if you managed to find it here. I'm definitely rooting for you.

[loveisanopenseal]

[!]

Love . . . ? I see . . . this is that kind of opportunity . . .

[starinhereye]

You didn't hear their announcement?

[loveisanopenseal]

I have heard, but I suppose I did not quite think about it in the context of what my goals could be until just now . . .

[starinhereye]

Ah, that makes sense. It is a unique opportunity. It'd be a shame not to use to its most if it suits you.

[loveisanopenseal]

Yes, I will make sure not to waste it.

[A brief smile and NEW CARD.]

What is your most frequent fantasy?

[starinhereye]

[immediately turning red and glancing off, totally a fish out of water]

[starinhereye]

[and outright jumping out of his seat when the buzzer goes off]

It— It was nice to meet you!

[loveisanopenseal]

[le SIGH]

Oh how disappointing, time goes by so quickly. I look forward to meeting you again in the near future.

[starinhereye]

S-Same, same.
