Speed Dating: not for the faint of heart

Who: Class 1-2 (Charlie Kelmeckis, Clint Barton, Crowley, Hannibal Lecter, Kevin Tran, Kili, Luke Smith, Percy Jackson, Quinn Fabray, Ruby, Sam Yao, Santana Lopez, Seta Souji, Simon Lauchlan, Steve Rogers, Tinker Bell) & EVERYONE
Where: Class 1-2's awesome Speed Dating Cafe
When: Saturday 7/12 - Wednesday 7/16. Saturday - Monday are preparation days, and then they're open for business Tuesday and Wednesday.
Rating: PG, maybe PG-13?
Summary: Class 1-2 is playing matchmaker! Sort of. Actually they're just leaving it up to luck and your charming personality. Wait, you don't have one of those? Well, at least this will be blessedly short...
The Story:



Class 1-2's classroom has been transformed for the cultural festival, all the desks rearranged until pairs of two are pushed together and face each other, creating an intimate setting that's separated by dividers they've borrowed from elsewhere in the school.

Red and pink paper hearts dangle from the ceiling and the shades are drawn, leaving the light cast from the lanterns hung overhead and the tiny lights strung up around the edges of the room to set the mood. Music plays quietly in the background, just enough to help muffle the individual conversations and give a bit more hint of privacy and all students that wander in for one of the speed sessions are informed they have the length of one song to chat up their partner before switching. Students are welcome to switch up as many times as they like in search of that special someone.

Unfortunately, Class 1-2 can not guarantee you finding your true love. Please don't hold it against them if you don't.

[[OOC Note: How this works: 1) Drop your character in a top thread or hit up one or more of the others already waiting. 2) You have the span of approximately 7-10 comments (handy AC number there) to get your flirt on and make an impression before the song ends and you switch partners. Since this is meant to be a short and quick encounter, try not to drag out the interaction too long, because they would be interrupted at the end of the allotted time.]]

Come on, smile. [Kate takes a seat across from him and holds out her hand in greeting.] Most guys I know would kill for this sort of attention.
voiceinthedark: (Sweet)

[Sam gives her a shy look but takes her hand, managing a small smile.]

I just think it'd be kind of better for people to be doing it 'cause they want to talk to me, not just 'cause the music stopped.
tryit: ([interest] you called?)

[personal profile] tryit 2014-07-16 12:03 am (UTC)(link)
I didn't hear any music, did you? [She shakes his hand firmly before leaning back in her chair.] I'm Kate.
voiceinthedark: (Smile)

[personal profile] voiceinthedark 2014-07-16 02:09 am (UTC)(link)
Sam... I'm Sam. Nice to meet you.

[He smiled a little again, managing to make it look at least a bit more genuine.]
tryit: ([happy] everyone should try it)

[personal profile] tryit 2014-07-17 12:36 am (UTC)(link)
[He looks a little younger than her but that doesn't stop Kate from being friendly. Even if she doesn't meet any potential real dates through this thing, there's absolutely nothing wrong with making new friends. She enjoys it.

Most of the time, anyway.]


Nice to meet you, too. Weird, isn't it? School doesn't seem so big until you sit down and realize just how many people you don't actually know here.
voiceinthedark: (Thoughtful)

[personal profile] voiceinthedark 2014-07-17 07:28 pm (UTC)(link)
[Sam actually takes a look around the room and then shrugs.]

I guess. You just get used to seeing the same faces every day. Never really thought about it.
tryit: ([neutral] can i come in?)

[personal profile] tryit 2014-07-18 05:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Same. This speed dating thing you guys came up with is a great idea. Even if just for the purpose of finally getting out and meeting new people.
voiceinthedark: (Figure it out)

[personal profile] voiceinthedark 2014-07-19 03:51 pm (UTC)(link)
You think? [Sam sounds just a little sceptical.] I'm pretty sure Simon just wanted to do it to get a date for the dance.
tryit: ([happy] amused)

[personal profile] tryit 2014-07-23 02:41 am (UTC)(link)
Has he found one yet?
voiceinthedark: (Reproachful)

[personal profile] voiceinthedark 2014-07-24 12:19 am (UTC)(link)
I dunno. I don't keep track of who he wants to get off with.
tryit: ([happy] love ya really)

[personal profile] tryit 2014-07-26 11:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Get off with? [Kate pretends to make a face, doing her best not to break character and laugh.] Wow, Sam, language.

voiceinthedark: (Winsome)

[personal profile] voiceinthedark 2014-07-26 11:36 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm fifteen. What do you expect? Not like I swore or anything.
tryit: ([happy] definitely digging this convo)

[personal profile] tryit 2014-07-27 02:12 am (UTC)(link)
Nothing so... descriptive.
voiceinthedark: (Welcome home Runner 5)

[personal profile] voiceinthedark 2014-07-27 02:15 am (UTC)(link)
If you know what it means, you're old enough to use the words.
tryit: ([happy] he's so faking it)

[personal profile] tryit 2014-07-28 12:34 am (UTC)(link)
Do your parents agree with that philosophy?
voiceinthedark: (Taken Aback)

[personal profile] voiceinthedark 2014-07-29 12:32 am (UTC)(link)
My dad doesn't agree with a lot of stuff I think.
