Got a need for speed dating.

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!

[ You might just hear the clink of a glass on the table you're hung at before you see the woman sliding into the seat across from you. She smiles, her posture eased against the chair's back once she's off her feet.

Her hair is long. Brown. A complement to the earth tones she wears under the denim jacket she's nearly got shrugged off. She's in the realm of middle-aged, though her exact number's probably hard to pin down.

May Parker. The name curls along the sticker that everyone here got saddled with, her included.

Both of her hands hold glasses filled with a cool, sweating drink. Once settled, she offers one up. ]


These things get less awkward when you're in the general neighborhood of a buzz.

[The nametag is simple. Just a nailed on note with his name Danny and his preference is outlined as Both. He's nervous. He's just here on his brother's suggestion.]

Addie Sands | OC | OTA 20+

[Addie’s seated at her table in a simple, but pretty, purple cocktail dress and sipping a cocktail that she mixed herself. Normally she wouldn’t put herself into such a public event, but she owes the bar owner a favorite and she’s been assured that everyone has been thoroughly vetted.

Her name tag says Addie with a few music notes after. Her preference is labeled as Men and Women.]
