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. )

[ Formalception. ]

No, I am not. Why do you ask?

[counterfaith]

Ah, I simply wondered, with your sonkeigo. You're very polite.

[assent]

It was the way I learned... that is all.

[ Princess life, basically. ] Is it really that obvious?

[counterfaith]

I would say it's natural, to the point that I would not have batted an eye if you said that you were Japanese.

[assent]

[ She lets out a sigh of relief. ]

I am glad to hear that. Japan is my favourite country and I have studied it intensively. Actually, before I arrived here I had travelled to study there.

[counterfaith]

I see - and how do you like it? Our country?

[assent]

Aaaaah, I love Japan! From the landscapes to the religions, the clothes to the food... all of it is truly wonderful!

[ Her voice may have raised in pitch now. Ouch. ]

[counterfaith]

[ how exciting. . . ]

How much of it have you explored? Where have you gone?

[assent]

[ This is why she was almost Ultimate Weeb. ]

A-actually, I did not get to arrive... I had intended to go straight to my new school but I somehow woke up on an island instead.

[ ... ah ]

[counterfaith]

An isla—

[ but the bullhorn sounds, and he startles a little ]

—. . . ah.

[assent]

Ah... [ She looks disappointed, mostly because she'd been enjoying the conversation this time. ]

Perhaps we can continue this another time?

[counterfaith]

Yes, next time for certain. I'll see you later, Miss Sonia.
