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

Passion... I guess, when you feel so strongly for something that you just can't get it out of your head, no matter what. It's like an itch at the base of your skull, you've gotta be pursuing it or at least thinking about it, even if maybe in your head you know you should probably tone it down.

That's the limit of my questions.

I liked that definition if it helps at all. You need to NURTURE passion.

Any last words?

No, not really. I might look into that tailoring thing, actually. Uh, for the friend that I was asking for, I mean.

A belly-shirt buddy, if you will.

If you need one made, seek me out I guess. I'd like to have something to do with my hands.

Really? Okay, cool. Would I have to prepare the supplies and everything or can you take care of that?

Bring whatever. You could probably just find something in the costume room I can convert. I'm hoarding sewing supplies to make clothing fit period.

I do more than midriff-flashing, you know. I'm big on accentuating my figure in general. Arms, legs, hips, you know.

If we had a fashion design competition, I would be all over that...

I bet you would be! I've never thought much about tailoring that much, especially for men's clothing. But you make it work!

Thank you. I never put out any piece that isn't above the bar.

I will see you at some point. Win or lose.
