Day 9 - The Dating Game

[kentucky_mcgiygas]

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

Okay, okay, ummm... Yeah! Okay, I wanna know your favorite color! You should tell me why it's your favorite, too!

[mary definitely doesn't know what a date is]

Rainbow! Because that's all of the colors.

[scribbly]

Is that cheating? It might be cheating...

...Actually, I think that's a really good choice! Yeah! All the colors! Okay, what about candy, what's your favorite candy?

I ACCIDENTALLY THE WRONG THREAD

Have you ever had macarons? They come in every color and sometimes they're shaped like cute animals!

NAILED IT

[scribbly]

They are..? Ooh... Wow, I want macarons! I wanna try rainbow macarons!

[(Anonymous)]

If you choose me, I'll make you some!

I like red, it just makes me feel energetic. Though I kinda like purple, too. It just feels calming to me.

[scribbly]

Yeah, red's good! It's a good color, like for roses!

Okay, now I wanna know your favorite candy, too!

[(Anonymous)]

I don't eat that much candy, but probably sour gummy candies are my favorites. I do like savory snacks like chips or popcorn, though!

[scribbly]

Sour gummies? Don't those ones make your face get all puckered? Do they hurt?

Mary-chan, you might be too young for this game.

But, let's say a light shade of pink. It's soft and cute.

[scribbly]

How come? I wanna play the game! I wanna do an interview and get votes!

[she has no idea what's going on]

Pink's really pretty! It's a good color, good pick!

Okay, next, um... Who's your best friend? I mean, what are they like, why are they your best friend?

[(Anonymous)]

My best friend is like my family. They love you unconditionally. Of course I love them too.

[(Anonymous)]

It's purple! I've always liked it, it's soft and pretty.

[scribbly]

Purple... Okay! Then...if you got to visit any kind of place in the whole wide world, where would you wanna go?

[(Anonymous)]

It can only be in the world? What if I want to visit the moon?

[scribbly]

Oh! No, you can visit the moon, that's a good answer, too! What do you wanna go to the moon for, though?

[(Anonymous)]

I am fond of blue. Whether it's dark blue or a light blue, I love them just the same.

[scribbly]

Blue's really good. But you didn't say why, though!

[(Anonymous)]

I like all colors, but my favorite might be pink, because it's bright, cheerful, and the friendliest color.

[scribbly]

It's the friendliest..? Is pink really the most friendly? Why's that?

[(Anonymous)]

Not everyone likes pink, but pink likes everyone. Colors have personalities, if you let yourself feel them.

[(Anonymous)]

I like purple best, it's a nice mix between blue and red, I think that makes it softer and nicer.

Plus it's a royal colour! That's pretty cool!

[scribbly]

It's really royal? Like for kings and queens?

[super important for a girl who insists she's gonna be a princess when she grows up to know!! taking notes]

Why's that?

[(Anonymous)]

I think it started with the ancient Romans and Persians, only the highest nobility could wear purple because the pigment to dye the fabric was really expensive, it cost more than gold sometimes. There were also kings and queens who made it a law that only their close relatives could wear purple even when it didn't cost as much.
