★FIRST EVER WITCH & MONSTER SPEED DATING!
Who: All the people who signed up for Speed Dating!
When: Aguril 10th, 7PM-11PM
Where: The Little Melody music hall, side room.
What: Steven has organized a speed dating event for witches and monsters to meet each other. This log is closed to helpers and people who have signed up on the OOC event post.
Warnings: Good clean fun. Hopefully.
Finally, the day arrives. Steven will have contacted everyone coming by watch in advance, giving them the venue information and confirming their arrival. It turns out that he has arranged for a side room in the Little Melody music hall to be used for this event - he's made a positive enough impression with some of them that he managed to get it without charge, in exchange for doing chores around the hall. It's a somewhat ornate music room with a piano, chairs along the walls, 10 tables set up for dates, and one larger table set up with a potluck 'buffet' or sorts.
The offerings definitely include at least one quiche and one pie, provided by Papyrus, complete with a little note card thanking him and a description of what each food is. Papyrus's pies are actually pretty okay, even if the crust is a little crispy in places. Alongside that is water, a couple types of juice, and four trays of sandwiches: ham with cheese, chicken salad, egg salad, and veggie. Beyond that, Steven will display anything people bring with them, and write up little note cards to go along with the others.
Each table is set up with a lit candle and a sheet with a series of 'Icebreaking Questions', which read as follows:
1) What would you take with you to a desert island?
2) If you had to be someone else for a day, who would you be and why?
3) If you could invite anyone, dead or alive, to dinner, who would it be?
4) If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be?
5) What would be your ideal holiday destination?
6) What's the most reckless thing you've ever done?
7) What makes you laugh?
8) Do you have a party trick?
9) If you could be granted three wishes, what would they be?
10) What time in history would you have liked to be born in and why?
11) What is the most adventurous thing you have ever done?
12) What would be the title of your biography?
13) What is your favourite restaurant meal?
14) If you were given 1,000,000 cunes what would you spend it on?
Of course, using these questions is optional. Each date will last FIVE MINUTES, during which Steven and Elliot will be playing music to accompany on piano and violin. Towards the end of the five minute period, they will ramp up the tempo a bit to indicate that you are almost done, and then stop to tell people to change tables. During the whole proceeding, Steven will be projecting a sort of ambient illusion over the room, making the roof look like twinkling stars and leaving impossible to touch sparkles in the air.
OOCLY, I have made top levels below for every participating character, indicating who they have been randomly selected to tag. ICly, all witches will presumably have the chance to talk to all monsters, but since it isn't realistic to expect everyone to do 10 threads, we are starting with two tag outs. Beyond that, you can tag out to any additional people that you like. Find you character's name down below, see who you are assigned to tag (and who you have been tagged by!) and start a thread as soon as you are able. I understand that life happens and not all of these threads will happen, but it would be really cool if they could! I recommend keeping tags short and light to ease the load - and also because that seems suited to Speed Dating, anyway.
After the dating session is over, you can also make general mingle threads of people hanging out afterwards. The dating will only take about an hour, and Steven has the venue booked until 11PM.
NOTE: When you have an idea how your threads are going, please fill out the Google Form to submit your character's grades for each date. This is mostly just so you can have the fun of seeing who would formally approve of and reject your character.

For stealing?

Am I? Huh. I guess I am. Dunno why, stealing is a not so great thing to do. I guess... You've clearly got a passion for what you do that I just. Find sort of admirable.
[ She also finds it a little bit concerning, since she's experienced first hand what happens when you do science with all passion and no moral restraint, but. She's not about to give Entrapta shit about that based off one small incident. ]
no subject
Oh! Yes, I mean, I just like figuring stuff out! Don't you?
no subject
[ It's true, even now. Even if she's no longer actively doing lab work. She's just a lot more cautious about how far she's willing to go to make those discoveries now. ]

She pushes her chair back and stands up, giving Entrapta a little nod. ]
Come find me after this is over.
no subject
Okay!
[ After all the shuffling around and question-asking is over and everyone is starting to head out, Entrapta spots Morgan a little way off – she lifts one hand straight above her head and waves. ] Hey! Morgan! Hey!
no subject
Entrapta. [ Still a weird name. Weird to say. ] So. I figured we'd better go over some details before we commit to anything.
no subject
Oh, sure! [ She eagerly clasps two of her hands together. ] What d'you want to know?
no subject
The question is less about what I want to know, and more about what kind expectations we both have. I'm guessing at base it's something along the lines of, me not wanting to explode, and you wanting to avoid going nuts and eating people. But you said you also want to study the effects. So, what do you think that's going to involve, exactly?
no subject
no subject
Right. I guess I can live with answering a few questions... Especially if it means I get to keep myself from burning up. A-aasss long as we keep things professional and purely in the interest of scientific progress. I just want to make sure we're completely clear that this does not mean we're dating.
[ She laughs a little as she says that, in what she hopes makes it clear that she doesn't mean any offense by it. This is just a matter of convenience! Convenience and safety. No emotional strings attached. ]

In any case the arachne is definitely more embarrassed about this than Morgan is. She exhales a soft laugh, dipping her head and shaking it lightly. ] I know. Just making sure we're on the same page.
[ She pushes back off the wall, straightening up. ] Alright. I'm in.

[ Morgan's actually kind of impressed. Looks and sounds it, too. ]
Thanks. I'll give you a call tomorrow then, most likely. [ She pockets the card, and gives Entrapta a polite nod before moving to walk off into the night. ] Until then...
