The (Forced) Speed Dating Meme

[pantheraliam]

Maybe You Want to Be Here, Maybe You Don't
But You're Here!

It's as the tagline says. Maybe you want to be here - have a few laughs, get to know some new people, make new friends, maybe take someone home - or, maybe you don't. Either way, you're here, complete with a name tag, a list of preferences, and a mysterious magical force that's keeping you from leaving. Whether compelled to sit at your table and wait for your next match, or to visit tables yourself, it's time to partake in a thrilling game of speed dating. And no, you don't have a choice, so you might as well make the most of it.

How to Play:
- Make a top level with your character name and canon in the subject line. Include in your top level what's written on your character's tag. You may use this format if you wish:
<b>Name:</b> <b>Age:</b> <b>Preferences:</b> (insert here either sexual preferences, whether you're looking for friendship/romance, or both) <b>About me:</b>
Feel free to assume that your character filled it out themselves, or that it was magically filled out for them when they arrived and they aren't able to remove it. Whatever suits your character best!

- Assume your character is either seated at a table awaiting matches, freely exploring the room, or being propelled by some otherworldly force to mingle. That is to say, tag around to other top levels and speed date away!

- It may be a good idea to put in your top-level some preferences for whether you are looking for shippy threads, friendship threads, funny threads, etc.. whatever you'd like!

- Tag around, have fun, be respectful, follow basic dwrp rules, etc.!

Anyone and everyone is welcome, including fandom characters, fandom OCs, canon OCs, AUs, CRAUs, etc.! Feel free to spread the word and thanks for playing!

[ good thing yuji has a great sense of imagination! so as he listens to ryuji explain his powers, yuji manages to picture everything in his head. a special mask? a pirate skeleton captain that can fire lightning?!?! ​]

Dude... That sounds...

[ some extra space for dramatization ]

Totally awesome!!!

What the hell, you get to summon a pirate?! Just like that? Man, that's kinda like my friend, Fushiguro, he can summon special beings, too! But I guess a persona is something different, huh? Wow. Man, that's so cool.

Hey. One day, if you find yourself in trouble, or vice versa, we should team up!

[ Ryuji laughs, amused by how much the other boy enjoyed his very detailed and accurate description. he nods. ]

Yup! Just like that! Some people can even summon a buncha different ones too. My best friend, Ren's, got a shitton of different ones he can use! [ he grins. he'll spare Yuji the details for now, but any opportunity to brag about his friend is a good one. he is a bit curious about what other kinds of powers these guys have though. ]

I'm sure there's other ways to summon 'em, but I dunno what they are. What kinda "special beings" can this Fushiguro guy summon?

[ regardless, any type of power would probably be a great asset to have in battle. Ryuji reaches out to Yuji. let's shake on it. ]

Hell yeah, man! We can always use a little extra firepower! Maybe some day I'll introduce ya to the rest of the team.

[majide]

Oh yeah?? Your best friend must be hella powerful. [ nods sagely, out of respect. ]

Yeah, I'm still learning so I'm sure there are a ton of techniques I don't know about. It's exciting though, huh?

Fushiguro only has limited summons and they're all animals! Like divine dogs, rabbits, a huge elephant! They're not like normal animals, though, they've got their own special abilities too. It's pretty neat—and some of the animals are real cute.

[ grinning widely, yuji takes the hand and shakes it firmly! ]

Awesome. I'll do the same for you too! My friends aren't exactly a friendly bunch but they're good people. I'm sure you'll get along with them just fine!
