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

Fiji~!!!!
unexpectedboner: (what's this?)

Ah, I should've asked why! What's so great about Fiji, what do you want to see there?

(Anonymous) 2017-05-20 05:04 am (UTC)(link)
I have been there many times. It's a beautiful place. Beaches, sun, sand-- I even know private beaches there.

If there is any place I want to visit while I'm there, it would be the Civa Pearl Farm. It's exactly what it sounds like.
unexpectedboner: (guess where my other hand is!)

Huh, that sounds really neat. So, you like warm, remote places more than ones that are cold and bustling, huh? I guess I should ask, who would you wanna take with you, of all people living or dead?

My friends. From home and here. I want them to go see the whole world with me.
unexpectedboner: (hey girl you're over 16 right)

[personal profile] unexpectedboner 2017-05-20 06:29 am (UTC)(link)
That sounds like a ton of fun. I hope you can make it happen! I hope I can tag along, too.

You can always come with me. Anytime, anywhere.
unexpectedboner: (got you in my sights)

[personal profile] unexpectedboner 2017-05-20 07:08 am (UTC)(link)
I'll make sure you don't regret that offer!

(Anonymous) 2017-05-20 07:12 am (UTC)(link)
Promise?

I'll have you know that I am tapping my pinky on the tablet screen to make sure.

Do you have any other things to ask me?
unexpectedboner: (this reminds me of a puzzle)

[personal profile] unexpectedboner 2017-05-20 08:16 am (UTC)(link)
Oh right! I do get one more. Huh... Okay. What do you like the most about people in general, and/or me in particular?

(Anonymous) 2017-05-20 08:34 am (UTC)(link)
I like people who are motivated. Even if a goal is unrealistic, having the desire to move toward it is something I like to see so, so much.

With the world how it is today, you don't see many who want to do much of anything except wait.

If I'm just being general though-- Motivation and personality diversity. We are all different and that's beautiful.

You're right--it is really easy to just wanna hold back and curl in and see if you can drift by without any investment. It's scary to be someone different. So your enthusiasm is really inspiring, and just generally pretty great. You seem like a really awesome person!

I'm happy you think that.

I just blew my tablet a kiss for you!
unexpectedboner: (hey girl you're over 16 right)

[personal profile] unexpectedboner 2017-05-21 12:36 am (UTC)(link)
I'm flattered! Though I guess that's three. Is there anything else you'd like to say?

(Anonymous) 2017-05-21 01:11 am (UTC)(link)
Only that I hope we get to see each other soon! You're gonna be one shining star in this game.
unexpectedboner: (got you in my sights)

[personal profile] unexpectedboner 2017-05-21 01:16 am (UTC)(link)
You too, for sure. Good luck to both of us!
