Speed dating
You are at a speed dating event! "Speed dating is a formalized matchmaking process or dating system whose purpose is to encourage people to meet a large number of new people." - the Great Oracle of Wikipedia
-Post with your character
-For the top level subject line: your character is wearing a nametag, which also indicates their name, age and if they are interested in men/women/both/other. Don't forget to put in your comment what their nametag says!
-Tag around
-Repeat, TAG AROUND. Tag everyone! If you're just here for the memes/lulz, tag people your character would never be romantically interested in ever! It's not a proper speed dating event without a few excruciatingly embarrassing moments. Tag cross-canon! Meeting new people is the whole point! Be sure to indicate if you prefer semi-serious, shippy, jokes, gen, etc etc.
-If your character would not usually be willing to do this, they have a strange compulsion to do so today. Or maybe they're undercover. Or they owe a friend a favor. Or they lost a bet. Or whatever. Just handwave it.
-Have fun!

[ He's perfectly happy to be here, thank you, and is enjoying himself with a colorful drink in a martini glass. ]

the nametag she's wearing is something that she's awkwardly shifted, the drink in her hand relatively untouched. and she really does look like a fish out of water, not exactly uncomfortable in being here but very uncertain.
which probably doesn't help when she's thrown into her next date, barely having figured out this first one. at least she comes with polite smiles. if a then unfortunately asked question-- )
Are they always so quick?
( it is speed dating. she gets that but the timer was ridiculously quick. though she does live a slower paced life )

Hello! I'm Ben, it's very nice to meet you, Magnus.
[ He says with the slightest of pauses before his own name, like someone using a pseudonym might when quickly trying to recall the name they're using, and seamlessly picks up Magnus's from his name tag with only the quickest of glances to the thing. ]

“Seeking justice, eh? I knew a guy who was like that. Bit of a drag to be around.”
