The Log:

((The message probably came around noon: hey! the blind dates will be tonight at seven. make sure you dress warm, it was pretty chilly last year. thanks for signing up! Now, for some of you might have come as a surprise: "I was signed up for what?" though others already know it was coming for them. Either way, you chose to see exactly what it was you were signed up for. Perhaps a secret lover wanted to meet up with you and were too shy to ask? Wherever you come from, the roof of Latimir is your destination.

The weather was only so-so. Winds blow over the cold roof, table cloths of low quality shutter at their touch. It seems Greece has a campfires set up in three place carefully protected by metal bases to prevent fire damage, and around each tables are set up. At the very center, Greece is sitting, and when he sees someone approach, smiles, bringing him or her to the designated spot. He'll bring the small dinner when your date has arrived! He returns to his spot, clearly attending a soup at the center of the event.

The table seems to be set with only a paper flower set in a small dish. Your number, in black, fading marker stands upright before you, and your partner's number sits across from you. Around you may be the other guests, whom you may approach and talk with if you see fit.

If you look at the other side of the card, you may find a few hints and tips to get conversation going. "Cats" "I can kick your ass" "Scones" "Flowers" and the like are scribbled onto every card.

It's a bit nerve wrecking to arrive before your date, but don't be too worried. Eventually, he or she will show up, and if you were lucky, your date and you won't already hate eachother. It's funny how things work.



The number matches are as follows:
(13 - 15) (4 - 11) (8 - 9) (7 - 14) (1 - 10) (6 - 16) (5 - 12) (2 - 3) (17 - 18)

Comment here with your number in the subject line. Make sure you look to see if your match hasn't commented already. When commenting TO your blind date at first, add your number too!!! If you want to mingle with other guests, that's TOOOOTALLY allowed! And finally, if you need to "godmod" Greece a little as far as food things go, that's fine!

And finally, if you need conversation prompts, forgot/lost your number, or have any other questions, my aim is Maypie Lord, or you can PM the account!))

You're expecting me to think like other people?

[bauhinia]

Never mind that then. [ Sasuke, you're... never going to figure this out. He's standing right here and you're never gonna get it. ]

[eyeforaneye]

[ Just put a pipe in his mouth, a deerstalker on his head, and call him Sasuke Holmes. ]

There's no reason to do a thing like this.

[bauhinia]

[ I bet there's fanart of that. ]

Maybe they thought they were helping you out.

[eyeforaneye]

[ Oh I bet. ]

Don't be so ridiculous.

[bauhinia]

You've never heard of a blind date?

[eyeforaneye]

... I've heard of a date.

[bauhinia]

Well, this is a blind date. As in, you don't know who you're gonna meet. Someone else sets you up for it, yeah?

[eyeforaneye]

That's pointless. If you don't know who it is beforehand then you're less likely to be compatible with them.

[bauhinia]

Your friends or acquaintances are supposed to handle that part.

[eyeforaneye]

That doesn't seem to be the way this one was organized at all.

[bauhinia]

Yeah, this is kinda different. But that doesn't mean someone couldn't put your name in hoping you'd meet someone nice or something.

[eyeforaneye]

[ Nice blush. ]

I never asked anyone to do that for me. That seems unlikely.

[bauhinia]

[ It looks like he got slapped, really. ]

You don't have to ask, yeah? I didn't either.

[eyeforaneye]

And you think the person that did it to you was trying to be nice?

[bauhinia]

I think they might've meant well.

[eyeforaneye]

If it was a brother of yours, most likely.

[bauhinia]

Most likely. Maybe they think I'm lonely.

[eyeforaneye]

You have family here. How could you be lonely?

[bauhinia]

Not that kinda lonely.

[eyeforaneye]

I don't understand, then.

[bauhinia]

Y'know, like, the kinda lonely where you need one on one companionship with that special person or something.

[eyeforaneye]

...

Do you have an example?

[bauhinia]

Like Japan and Marco.

[eyeforaneye]

Ah. So someone is trying to find you a lover?
