[Voice/Written/Action] go go fight for romance
[God, okay, enough procrastinating and feeling depressed. He is doing this before something terrible happens again to delay it. Ugh.]
Hey, Luceti. Couple of things.
First, gonna remind everyone that this town has an LGBTQQA+ club that still meets pretty regularly, you know, when circumstance allows. If you don't know what that all means, feel free to ask and I'll expand on it, but the short version is people who identify as a sexuality or gender that goes against what society views as "normal". Meetings aren't required or anything, it's basically a support and discussion group. Consider this an open invite to ask about it or join up if it sounds like something up your alley.
Second point is, uh. The whole Luceti group thing kind of accidentally took over the club name, Alliance. So maybe we should pick a name for ourselves, instead? It was always kind of a throwaway name because we didn't have anything better at the time... just something I've been thinking about.
Thirdly, and more importantly, it was mentioned on the network not that long ago that we ran a speed dating thing last year. I've been meaning to have another one, but the timing was kind of crap last month... anyway, I think it's time! So here goes. The 2nd Annual Luceti Speed Dating.
Short explanation from last year: we get together, pair up, talk to your partner for 5-10 minutes max, just to get a first impression and meet as many new people as you can. Last year we did both romance and friendship options, and I think it worked out pretty well! We had a couple success stories, far as I recall. Anyone want to offer some feedback for it? Testimonials? "Speed dating changed my life"?
Oh, and like last year, this is open to all, not just the club. I'd like to do it this coming Saturday, so if you want to sign up, swing by the plaza any afternoon this week and find me.
[Like last year, the message is also in written format, and all week there'll be a table with some posters and sign-up sheets, and occasionally Billy if you want to swing by to talk about it. Discussion is also welcome and encouraged over the journal network.]
((ooc: and you can sign up here!))

[Though he kind of rage-quit that super uncomfortable conversation, admittedly.]
[video; locked]
[People talk, and it seems appropriate to believe that word of him would have traveled more quickly in such a closely knit community. He smiles thinly.]
Regardless, I trust that my concern for the others partaking in this event shan't be diminished or dismissed on account of our... [A pause, as if carefully considering his choice of words] ...disagreements.

[The clueless man hadn't be an offense so much as he had been a bore. Bur for those who may be looking to insult him in the future, it's not something he will take sitting down. It wouldn't be very Isaac of him, after all.]
...A pity that some have such little regard for that club of yours and prefer to live in spiteful ignorance.

[Compared to back home, the so-called land of the free? Where kids used to beat him up on a near-daily basis for being different? Hah.]

Well, how fortunate for you. However, a man being 'chill' is not an accurate reflection of how tolerant and open-minded he is. In this cage especially I have seen all too clearly how a man needs not foam at the mouth to feel an abiding contempt for another. [Spreading his hands.] Sometimes those with the kindest, most charming of smiles are more rotten than the rest. [His arms lower softly to his sides, a wry smirk still twisting his lips.] ...Mind who you consider good company, for your own sake.
