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!))

[This gets Zatanna’s attention for all the right reasons. But since people Robin are creepers, she’ll wait until she catches him in person to ask. It isn’t exactly hard to hunt him down in the middle of the plaza.]

So do people have to sign themselves up, or can they be volunteered?

[What? She's only got good intentions at heart. Honest. Also, she's perching herself on the edge of his table now.]

I'm pretty sure he's only attracted to work, which is the majority of the problem. [Certainly it had been in her case. Plus that tidbit about home, but hey, it's not like Robin will be taking any of this seriously anyway.] And I know I can get him there. Boy Wonder or not, he can't escape every trick in the book.
noitatnacni: (you're so in for it.)

Nice to know you see things my way. [Zatanna picks up a handful of forms.] Mind if I bring these back to you? I've got a few people I want to try and get to come. Most of them will fill out the cards for themselves, promise.
noitatnacni: (so that's cute)

I wouldn't want to make promises I can't keep. [And there's no way Robin is filling out his own card. Zatanna's not worried, however; she and Artemis can figure out the right things to say.]

Count on it. So why speed dating? Trying to start a new fad in Luceti?

Korra, huh? I don't think I've met her, but I'll thank her for encouraging it when I do. It sounds like it'll be fun.

Just better be careful what matches you make. [She gives Billy a teasing wink.] People could get upset if things don't work out so well.
noitatnacni: (trust me on this)

That might be smart. You wouldn't want anyone to get sue happy in the world with no money.
noitatnacni: (i've got an idea)

And then you start giving people ideas. You know, at this rate you’re going to talk yourself into being someone’s houseboy. Frilly apron and all.

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

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.
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.]
noitatnacni: (are you being serious?)

Re: action

[personal profile] noitatnacni 2013-07-20 08:57 pm (UTC)(link)
[Zatanna laughs, shaking her head.] Better not let him hear you say that. He'd probably take it as a challenge.

[And all joking aside? Robin trying to up his stalker factor is not what they need.]

Afraid you’d lose?  [Because clearly that’s the natural response to that assertion.]
