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!))

[There's an interpretation of "orgy" that he's never heard before. Then again, he remembers this guy being very oldschool.

Okay then...]

It's, uh. Well the word means- these days- look, we're just going to be talking. If anyone wants more after it's over they'll have to arrange it themselves.

[relictusdeus]

There seems to be little difference between this and speaking to one out in the street, or with the journal. I had been hoping for something more... engaging, if you will.

[Something that would save him more of the trouble of seeking people to warm his bed and failing miserably at that, he muses.]

A pity.

[selfhelp]

Well it's not like you can't talk about sex, uh... if that's cool with your partner and all. But seriously, what were you expecting?

[relictusdeus]

I knew not quite what to expect, for this speed dating of yours is a concept foreign to me. However, that it warranted an announcement led me to believe it would be an event grander in scale. But... [He heaves a light sigh.] ...I suppose it may still be worth my attention. That is, depending on who may find themselves sitting across me...

[The poor wretch. A thin, sly smile spreads across his lips.]

[selfhelp]

Depending on what you're after, you could end up paired with lots of people. Just try not to bite anyone's head off, okay?

[He knows how... er... interesting conversations with this guy can be. For better or worse.]

[relictusdeus]

And have it end so quickly...? [A laugh bursts from him.] Banish the thought.

[selfhelp]

I'm not sure if that's supposed to be reassuring or not...

[He can't decide which it is, either.]

[relictusdeus]

Oh, you are such a dear~

[And it's on this merry, humorous note that he thinks to leave the conversation hanging, offering Billy a pretty little smile before softly flipping the cover of his journal shut.]
