Day 9 - The Dating Game

ICly, this game is played on your tablet, and can only be activated when you're alone in your dressing room. You can play vocally or text-based, but either way they come out on the other end as pure text and/or read by a computerized voice.

FIRST DAY (until 7:00PM PST tomorrow; an extra day since I got it up late):

ETA NAH LET'S EXTEND IT INTO THE NIGHT. Second half is just reveals anyway! I'll get it around noonish tomorrow.

🍔  Make a toplevel for your character, starting off with some kind of open-ended question. Your tablet provides some example questions, and you are free to steal one or invent your own.

🍔  Everyone else replies to the toplevel anonymously! Lying, kissing ass, or pretending to be someone else are allowed and frankly ENCOURAGED.

🍔  While there are no hard rules against any sort of questions, for the part of the questioner, trying to suss out identities goes against the principle of the thing and will be looked upon harshly by Ronald and the King. This is a dating game, so relax and try to find your perfect romantic match!

🍔  After someone replies, the questioner can ask up to three more questions to each anon. Anons, stay in your threads.

SECOND DAY (until 6:00PM PST Sunday)

🍔  I'll make a new thread, where everybody can announce which of their anons they would most want to date!

🍔  Winning anon, reveal yourself!

🍔  You don't actually have to go on a date (it will not count against you), but if you'd like to, a ~romantic, off-menu dinner~ will be provided

Such as what, exactly? Let your imagination run wild.

That depends on the situation, but if I had a disease, I would throw all kinds of money at a cure, or if someone was threatening me I would kill them first. I would even make a deal with a devil if I could.

[Seeing the part about a deal with a devil actually makes Ronove chuckles. Hah!]

My, you'd be determined to cling to life as much as possible -- and what intriguing scenarios you proposed. What'd you offer in a deal with a demonl?

[Ronove admits to himself he's curious about that]

Ususually they want something like your soul, right? I would be fine with offering that even if it means torture when I do die.

Quite daring of you. But it turns out the deal isn't going like you expect -- the demon doesn't want your soul. It wants the soul of someone you consider close and valuable to you. Whose soul would you offer in exchange of your survival?

Anyone I consider truly close and valuable to me is someone I wouldnt be able to live without. If it means there's an afterlife, I wouldn't want that without them either. I would give them any number of inconsequentials, or someone who might be perceived as close but isn't, but if they don't want that or my own soul, then the deal's off.
