video ♞ blind dates

[tarotcards]

[ In the midst of all the text entries in the network, there is surprisingly a video entry posted in Retrospec this afternoon. When clicking on it, a pair of identical twins (tarotcards and covenantal will appear on screen. ]

Hello, Recollé.

In light of Valentine’s Day quickly approaching, we’ve figured that we should host an event.

After all, it’s not Valentine’s Day without dates and unexpected confessions.

[ He says, copying almost word-by-word what a certain uncle said (asides from the 'awkward dates' part because look, he doesn't want to deter anyone from signing up). ]

Or without Cupid helping out. Which is, of course, what we’re here to do.

[ A pause as the two twins look at each other. ]

...Cupids? Or is it just Cupid?

[ A thoughtful pause, and: ]

Cupids.

[ And a nod from the other. They then both face the camera once again. ]

As we're such good and kind Cupids, we have decided to help everyone find their one true love. Therefore, we will be hosting a blind dating event, where no one will be alone for Valentine's Day this year.

Just text us your details and we’ll help set you up with the date of your dreams. Or, you can always give us a friend’s details, too.

[ Said completely deadpan. … is … he serious? Is he joking?? It is impossible to tell. ]

We’ll randomize everyone’s information to find them a date, and let you know on the 13th.

Then on the 14th, you can experience the date of your life. We won't just leave you completely hanging, though. We'll have our own little Cupids booth in the city to guide any unsure or confused little lovers.

[ Then, in unison, the twins both bow their heads and say: ]

We hope you enjoy the event.

[ A few minutes after the broadcast, a little extra text is attached: ]

Which outfit is better? Something more traditional or risque?

It’s important, so please be honest.

( ooc: Souji’s dialogue is in dark blue and Yu’s is in gray. The blind date event details are over here! OOC sign-ups are mandatory to participate, even if there’s an IC sign up here. The deadline is on Feb. 10 at 11:59PM EST so please get your comment in before then. Please reply to this entry as text-only, please! Also, Souji’s player (tarotcards) will reply to all tags tomorrow so apologizes for the delay! Feel free to ask Ichi (Souji) or Pip (Yu) if you have any questions over here!)

[covenantal]

I am. That's why I asked you.

[hjack69]

how are you real people who havent died of e coli yet
also idk about pudding
you could make a preserve i guess?
i mean shit grams used to make jam out of jalapenos and carrots and stuff and pickles are just weird cucumbers
try menudo first its weird AND actually fit for human consumption

[tarotcards]

I found an actual unicorn afterwards and they rewarded me with an identical clone for not eating their meat.

[hjack69]

you happen to hear abt any diamond ponies from that unicorn
just wonderin

[tarotcards]

I can't say.

I was sealed to a pact of silence with the unicorns and instructed not to speak about their magical associations to those who speak foul things such as possible cat meat.

[ look, he might be slightly hung up about that. that was a rude joke (and i need to tag that thread back and our other one as soon as i catch up on these here aaaaAAA) ]

[hjack69]

oh my god you are STILL mad

[ shameless tbh. (ALSO NO RUSH IT'S ALL GOOD) ]

[tarotcards]

I cannot easily forgive or forget such a high act of treason. I once believed that we could be on the same side, but it is clear that we are not.

[ souji hopes that chocobo got jack real good (AND THANK YOU, U DA BEST jack is also a great character and i love him, his threads are hilarious)]

[hjack69]

[hjack69]

[tarotcards]

I will ensure that they will be responsibly cared for.

But I do hope that you won't tell them in your drunken state what you told me during the festival. You'd only scar them.
