speed dating 2.0

[idolpro]

WHO: More idols looking to have a good time
WHERE: Game Tower
WHEN: Day 120, morning

[ Hello, Idols! Are you ready for a game?

Some of you may have played this before! The area is familiar for sure: today's playing field is an expansive balcony with several mini-tables paired with two patio chairs each, garden umbrellas planted to keep the heat away. You can see the rest of the city from up here, too - it turns out you're pretty high up as you can even see the start of the Rainbow Bridge from here, though the railings are high so there's not a high likelihood of accidentally falling down.

There are a few pink lemonade pitchers scattered around with paper cups if you're thirsty, and some bite-sized chocolates if you're hungry. Cute snack food!

The instructions look familiar, too: it's a light game, with no enforced truth-telling even. No status effects! Just dates!

There are cards on the table, too! ]

for kaguya.

[420blazeit]

[ motions to the seat across from her. ]

Let's get this party started.

[sunflowering]

[When this is for a game do these speed dates count as real dates!?

Taking a seat across from her...!]

It's nice to meet you. Pretty strange for a game, huh?

[She picks up three cards, places them on the table, and flashes a grin at her.]

Why don't we play like this? You touch one of the three cards here, and whatever you pick, I'll read!

[420blazeit]

[ probably not. if it goes well though it could turn into a real date! ]

Nice to meet you too. Let's get the easy stuff out of the way first. Name's D.Va.

[ looks at the cards. ] Hm~~~ I'll go with the one on the right.

[sunflowering]

Kaguya! Unless you can pronounce my profile name.

[Tip: It can't be pronounced]

Hmm~! Let's see here.

[Picking up the far right card...!]

What is one thing that you absolutely cannot stand?

[420blazeit]

Looks like Butterfly Kisses to me.

[ pops another chocolate into her mouth. ]

Being bored. A fate worse than death.

[ she's going to do the same; grab three cards and spread them out. ] Pick your poison, Kaguya~

[sunflowering]

I was tossed between that and Butterfly Sparkles.

[ Alas ]

This place is terrible, but if there is one thing it does well, it keeps people on their toes.

[Hard to be bored when every other day or so is a game... some... better than others.]

So hopefully that's not a problem, here!

[ Anyway... hmm~! She hums thoughtfully. ]

What about the middle one?

[420blazeit]

Both are cute.

But so is Kaguya~

[ y- yeah, hard. ]

Not yet, no. I try to keep things interesting.

[ looks it over and gives a laugh. ] Have you ever tied anybody up?

[sunflowering]

T-That sounds like such a kinky question...

[Self what did you pick]

But I also feel weirdly lacking by saying no... probably not...

[420blazeit]

It probably is. I've read through a couple of the cards at some of the other tables I said at and while some seem innocent others are like this. [ waves the card around. ]

If it makes you feel anybody I haven't either, but maybe we can change that.

[sunflowering]

An interesting idea. If we're stuck in hell, we might as well live our best lives.

[420blazeit]

Exactly. I'm sure it'll be some sort of fun~ We can make an actual date of it.

[ looks at the two remaining cards kaguya has in front of her. ]

How about that one. [ point. ]

[sunflowering]

Let's do it!

[ YOLO ]

Alright, let's see...

Oh. [Seems like a lot of the cards are like that.]

Sadist? Or Masochist. Which one are you?

[420blazeit]

[ she doesn't even hesitate in her answer, since she'd already been asked this question. ]

Sadist. How about you?

[sunflowering]

Eh...between the two, probably sadist. But I think I'm also a philanthropist, so it kind of tones it down a little. I'm not really into feeling pain.

[420blazeit]

I don't mind a bit of both worlds, to be honest. I had this conversation with somebody else. I'm like the Switzerland of kinks. I'll go either way I guess, depending on what my partner wants. If I had to choose though, well... sadist.

[ taps the two remaining cards. ]

Let's see if the invasive trend continues.

[sunflowering]

In the end, I'm not sure what I'd pick romantically, but... I can't imagine it would change much!

[Hmm... she debates between the two cards, though... and ends up picking the one on the left.]

This one.

[420blazeit]

Right! See. It all depends!

[ smirks at the card and flips it around: do you think you're a good kisser? ]

I can help with this one if you like.

[sunflowering]

[ LSKDFJLSKFS DVA ]

I... I'm...not really sure.

[Her cheeks are flushing though...!]

I mean, for some reason the other day, I... [ SHE....KISSED SOMEONE ]

I don't think it went badly, but... it...err... well it's kind of embarrassing, too.

[420blazeit]

[ cuuuute. ]

You...? [ she quirks her head, looking amused. ] You kissed someone?

Did you surprise them with a kiss or something? Is it a crush of yours? Or just some random person?

[sunflowering]

I don't really know why I did it...!

I was just enjoying a cupcake, and then all of a sudden I felt like...

[BURIES HER FACE IN HER HANDS]

It... was one of my unitmates. But... apparently, we know each other from my homeworld. I guess it was pretty much a surprise. To both of us...

[420blazeit]

[ she reaches across the table and moves her hands away from her face. ]

It's not something you need to be embarrassed about. I'm not here to judge. It actually sounds really cute.

[sunflowering]

Do you think so...?

I keep wondering what he must think about it after all of that.

[420blazeit]

I do. How about sitting down and talking through it? It might have been a fluke, just something spurred on by a heavy realization like that, but maybe it's something else. Something more! Don't miss an opportunity like this.

[sunflowering]

[ Mrr.... ]

I-I'll see... I keep wondering if it's just because I know we're supposed to know each other, or... he smelled good, or something like t hat. I don't know.

[ Aghrr. Holding her head. ]

Oh well. I'm just going to say that maybe I'm okay at kissing. Possibly...

Hopefully...

[420blazeit]

How about another cupcake date? See if it happens again. You could try to be smooth about it.

[ she leans her cheek in her hand and smiles at kaguya. cute. ]

Do you want a definite answer?
