@Kenshi What about that private investigator?

@Moonshadow Well, it may be fair to declare Creed and Jim gone by this point. Do you want to retcon their interactions with you? Or do you want to say they still happened but then Creed and Jim left to who-knows-where? Either way, I'd need just a bit of a timeskip to gather supplies before we meet you at the library.

@Vampiretwilight Does Danielle have a reason to choose the library? You can be the one to post that decision if you want. If you don't want to, I'll have a Singh do it.

@Dark Cloud Might be worth a try if it wasn't like $20. But I might be willing to pay $20 to go with friends and afterward joke about how weird it was.

Jill Henderson

The minute Jill received her welcome packet, she headed straight to the bar. She was not kidding about only coming for the free drink. If some 'charming fellow' had been 'waiting for love' for this long, the deluded sap could stand to wait a few more minutes.

The couples were already starting to mingle by the time Jill received her blue fruity drink with three different kinds of rum. She took a large sip, savoring the sweet treat with a blooming sense of burn. Then, as usual, she discreetly spit it back into the glass... and dreamed of the day she might regain an esophagus and stomach required to actually drink.

Jill ran a bony finger through her auburn wig as she approached Table 10, wondering what kind of man got dragged into this. Perhaps it would be nice to chat with a regular person, after all... as long as he didn't immediately scream or run or pull a torch and pitchfork out of nowhere. It would at least be a calm break from the usual roller coaster those bozos at home put her through.

The Normal Human halted as she spotted the lucky man at Table 10, and then she let out a quiet groan. Of course, of all the Normal Men here, she got stuck with what looked to be a slightly different flavor of the same crazy she just got away from. The man appeared to be a robot, and Jill wondered if this creature would have any personality of its own whatsoever. Perhaps some technological mastermind sent his robot to do all his dirty work, including dating. Of course, that was an admirably clever and efficient use of resources, but... ick.

Jill sat down next to Leo with a sour expression, not even attempting to play along with the romantic nonsense anymore. She took another swig, and another spit, of her rum drink. The skeletal woman sighed and looked at the form she was given, barely glancing at Leo.

"Are you a cat person or a dog person?" she flatly read off the sheet.

@DraconiWarlord Leo is dating Jill, my PC who is DEFINITELY a normal human and NOT a lich. You can start an intro post for us, or I can do so after class. I really wanted to get Sondra started.

Sondra

At Table 7, a woman in her mid twenties quietly looked around at the venue's decorations, either unaware or uncaring about several pairs of eyes that chose to fall on her rather than their own respective dates. Her serene, expressionless face was further veiled by a pair of large dark sunglasses. Silky honey blonde hair fell in gorgeous waves to frame her high cheekbones, her full brick red lips, her delicately tapered chin.

The woman's attire seemed an unexpected mismatch to her polished and flirty face. She chose a high collared full length dress, colored to match her lips. The material was somewhat thick and ribbed like a light sweater, but stretchy enough to allow a glorious hint at her smooth hourglass figure. The strangest thing about the fabric, though, was that it looked threadbare. Like the dress had been passed down for generations and was on its last legs. Bits of thread unraveled from small holes in the hem and back, and one of the long sleeves looked like it had been shoddily sewn back on. Perhaps, if the men looking on were lucky, a stiff breeze could blow this conservative dress r i g h t o f f.

When the woman heard footsteps approach, she stopped looking around at the scenery and turned to her apparent date with a slight warm smile.

"Hellllo," she addressed Grok in a crooning alto voice. "Are you number seven? I'm Sondra, it's lovely to meet you."

@Sleeth

House Of Villains: A Slice Of Life About Comically Self-Aware Villains

@Sleeth Just you wait. ;D I've had your pairing in mind for a long time, considering you started the speed dating idea and only recently recruited everyone else.

Ughhh, now that my RP is speed dating, it's bringing back a suppressed morbid interest to try it IRL. It's a trap. I'm too busy for love.

EDIT: Just got caught up in IC. Good lord, @Sleeth, you're a mad genius.

Pokemon Spiral

Alright, I'm gonna copy/paste my slightly earlier intro just for you, @Dark Cloud.

Yoooo, welcome! I... don't have authority here, so I can't make official decisions. But we probably have room for more! Check out the character sheet in the first OOC post and get started.

There's a lot of lore you can look at, but for a basic description of immediate things you would need to know to start: The group has just arrived in Vareena Town, home of the grass type gym and a Pokemon Contest hall. Right now they have just started a run-in with Team Noble, the mysterious villainous group of the region. The grunts have some sort of protection around them that sort of psychically forces people's attention away from them. (Essentially this means any other character nearby, including yours, would have to be alerted to their presence before they could join in.)

Most of the characters are converging there right now. If you don't want to jump right into the battle, you could also hang out with Ty at the Pokemon Center or Oscar en route to the Contest Hall (I think?).

You can also check out the Discord link in the 0th post if you want to hang out with us there.

@Vampiretwilight Could they be doing anything worth posting/ roleplaying about?

House Of Villains: A Slice Of Life About Comically Self-Aware Villains

@Dark Cloud Well that settles it. It's won't they. :P

As for a date with Jonathan, I'd be fine either way, a will they/won't they could be nice ;)
