Hey out there, Luceti. Are we all more or less ourselves again? Pretty sure we are, uh... here's hoping.

Considering how crazy things have been lately, Teddy and I were talking, and we think it'd be a good time to run this. We all need a break. So courtesy of the LGBTQQA Club - um, I'm tentatively calling it "Alliance", for the sake of minimizing all the abbreviations, better name possibly pending - I'm happy to introduce: Luceti's first-ever (I think) Speed Dating.

If you don't know what speed dating is, it's pretty much exactly how it sounds. The idea is we'd all get together, pair up, you'd talk to someone you might not have talked to before for about ten minutes, and then afterwards decide how you liked it and if you want to see them again. First impressions count for a lot, and sometimes that's all it takes to find your true love or your new best friend.

We're going to run it next weekend - Saturday afternoon, we figure is a good time - and sign-ups are starting now so we'll have time to pair everyone up. Anyone can participate, not just club members or people in the LGBT spectrum, and you're not obligated to do anything if you don't like it. So why not give it a shot? ...And we'll have cookies. Teddy's making them and the recipe looks amazing. Anyone else want to bring some food and stuff? We can have a table for contributions...

Um, anyway. I'll be over by the plaza today, and on the journal network, too, if you've got any questions or if you want to sign up.

[The above message is also written out (albeit less informally). And there's a table with posters and some forms in the plaza, near the school, all day. Billy's just hanging out and drawing the passerbys while he waits, if anyone wants to chat him up about it in person.]

((ooc sign-ups here!))

Fourteen. Which you, um, know. I think.

[ She gives a sheepish grin. ]

I have time to think about it now, anyway.
systemshock: (Back there)

So... you're some kind of self-service genie?

[Okay, that probably sounds wrong, but it's the first thing that came to mind.]
noitatnacni: (it's always like this)

...Wait. You did it because you're a fan?

[It went both ways-- Cliff didn't have the decency to apologize for breaking the UP3 and telling people about space...and, if he wanted, he could deliver a few brain-breaking bits of information himself.

There were some topics that were best lft untouched all around.]


Yeah. Anyway, you gotta name? I caught your friend's, but not your's.
touchofrogue: (Uncertain About This)

I have no idea!

[personal profile] touchofrogue 2013-07-15 01:28 am (UTC)(link)
[Rogue shook her head.]

You're just startin' to beg for reeducation. When's the last time you even listened to what I like to hear? Can you even name any bands?

Yeah? Then shouldn't he be doing all the hard work? [It's a joke. He understands helping out.]
noitatnacni: (you're so in for it.)

Re: action

[personal profile] noitatnacni 2013-07-15 11:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, that would qualify you for nerdiness. [Seriously, Zatanna doesn’t want to clean her own room sometimes. She can’t really imagine volunteering to clean someone’s house just because she likes them that much.] So what, just being around them is satisfying enough for you to keep doing it? Because I gotta say, that sounds a little creepy.
systemshock: (Nervous chuckle)

[personal profile] systemshock 2013-07-16 03:00 am (UTC)(link)
Still, that's pretty cool. Do you mind giving a demonstration? I'll show you mine if you show me yours.

[personal profile] goldenglasses 2013-07-17 11:35 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, guess I have heard that mentioned once or twice too. Either way, good luck with the speed dating. I'll definitely be there. Well, minus the Malnosso deciding something for me.
aerialassault: (confident -- totally chill)

Cliff Fittir. It's cool meeting you too!

--uh. You've probably heard my friends and I a few floors down from you. Things get kinda messy sometimes.
touchofrogue: (Nothing Touches Me)

ooooh, right!

[personal profile] touchofrogue 2013-07-18 02:49 am (UTC)(link)
[Rogue rolls her eyes and ticks the musicals off her fingers:]

The Phantom of the Opera, The Fantastics, and Cinderella. Rogers and Hammerstein.

[She shakes her head.]

You know what they say about assumin'...

[Something similar to being carried away by the spirit of competition?]
noitatnacni: (or you could kidnap me)

Re: action

[personal profile] noitatnacni 2013-07-18 12:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, I'd believe it. [But he's not going to like the reason why.] I live next door to Robin. So you're a creepy spy like he is. And of your idol no less.

[Yep, Billy's terrible, and he's just opened the door.]
touchofrogue: (She Smiles like This)

[personal profile] touchofrogue 2013-07-18 03:06 pm (UTC)(link)
But are those bands you like? Or just bands you can name. [She gives him a content grin.] The Fantastics is one of my favorite stories, an' don't get me started on my Phantom phase.
aerialassault: (thinking -- hmm)

[personal profile] aerialassault 2013-07-18 06:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Yea. I did.

...did you like the upgrades I've been making on the microwaves?

[Not that they were that noticeable...]
