Just a blind date

Who: Anyone who signed up here, but party crachers are welcome! (if you suddenly feel the urge to have a romantic dinner with someone, idefc!)
Where: Roof of Latimir
When: 14 Feb, 7.00 pm
Rating: G and up!
Summary: VALENTINE'S~
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!))

So sorry this is late!

[Sam watched people come and go; wondering which one of them was going to sit down at his table. He was nervous; he was excited; he was still regretting having ended up coming. But when someone did sit opposite Sam, he saw she was just as nervous as he.]

Hi.

[She looked familiar. Had he spoken to her before? Even though they hadn't really met, Sam was positive she'd spoken to him when he first arrived.]
meilihua: (just a bit sheepish)

OMG don't WORRY I'm REALLY excited about this (Wow gratuitous capslock)

[personal profile] meilihua 2012-03-08 05:30 am (UTC)(link)
[He was cute-! No, like...really really...okay where was she going with this? Oh right, um... she should probably say something...right?]

S-sorry if you've been waiting long, I didn't mean to be late... [She smiled a little bit nervously] W-we've met before right? Over the network?

^.^ (Yay Capslock)

[personal profile] hauntedhunter 2012-03-09 12:42 am (UTC)(link)
No, you weren't late.

[He smiles back; feeling slightly more comfortable knowing that she feels just as nervous as him.]

Yeah. We have. [His face brightens then; remembering her now.] You were one of the first people I spoke to when I arrived.

Thank you for helping me.
meilihua: (just as planned)

[personal profile] meilihua 2012-03-10 05:56 am (UTC)(link)
Oh-! I remember now! You and your brother and your...friend? All of you came at around the same time...

I didn't really help out much...eheh...

[personal profile] hauntedhunter 2012-03-11 03:25 am (UTC)(link)
[He nods, smiling.] Yup. That'd be Dean and Castiel.

No, but you did. Any information was better than nothing. [Her shy demeanor is actually quite adorable. Sam wonders if he ever gets this shy.]
meilihua: (at your service)

[personal profile] meilihua 2012-03-11 06:49 am (UTC)(link)
[She settles herself a little more comfortably in her chair, and rests her hands on the table, tilting her head at Sam across the table from her.] So you've been settling in okay then, right? How is it going?

[personal profile] hauntedhunter 2012-03-12 04:28 am (UTC)(link)
Well, it's been- interesting. [He laughs. Not because this world frightens him -which it does- but because similar situations regarding monsters are a daily occurrence for Sam.]

But right now everything is going good. I hope the same can be said for you? It'd a hard place to adjust to.
meilihua: (at your service)

[personal profile] meilihua 2012-03-13 04:39 am (UTC)(link)
I'm not used to the monsters and things, but a lot of my family is here, so...it seems to be going all right.

[She pauses a moment, and then tilts her head questioningly at him] You don't seem to be as worried about the monsters and things...

[personal profile] hauntedhunter 2012-03-13 06:28 am (UTC)(link)
Oh. Well- [He stops. Does he tell her he's had years of experience fighting monsters, or say something else? Everyone here knows of their existence, so there's no need to hide his secret, but he's so accustomed to telling everyone they don't exist -unless of course the person he's saving is already aware- Sam's not sure what to say.]

I kind of had a similar experience back home.
meilihua: (no way)

[personal profile] meilihua 2012-03-14 03:38 am (UTC)(link)
[She looks a little terrified and shocked at that] What?! You have to fight monsters at home-?

[personal profile] hauntedhunter 2012-03-20 11:41 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't have to. [He pauses, looking at the expression on her face as his own becomes distraught.] I chose to.
meilihua: (you've surprised me)

[personal profile] meilihua 2012-03-22 07:27 am (UTC)(link)
You chose to...? [A pause, and then she says, very carefully] you don't seem that happy about it...

[personal profile] hauntedhunter 2012-03-23 05:28 am (UTC)(link)
[There's really no use getting out of this; Sam's forced himself into a corner where the only thing to do is tell the truth. And maybe a part of him is relieved that he doesn't have to lie here.] Look. It's a really long story, but it's sort of something I was born into. A Family Business.
meilihua: (you don't say)

[personal profile] meilihua 2012-03-23 06:45 pm (UTC)(link)
[Well, that she can understand] So you and your brother are carrying on something that your entire family used to do?

[personal profile] hauntedhunter 2012-03-25 05:18 am (UTC)(link)
[His expression is stern, but he manages to form a sad smile on his face.] Yeah.

Pretty much.
meilihua: (peeking)

[personal profile] meilihua 2012-03-26 11:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Um...what... [tentative and sure that she's straying into sensitive territory] What happened to the rest of your family?
