Hello ducks, it has been a while, hasn't it? Relatively little has been going on so I'm afraid I must offer something else to bribe you with~

This is a beauty pageant post. If you put pictures of yourself in the comments, others will give you a score from 1-10. Then, I'll average out the scores and the highest rated man and woman will each receive a handmade outfit from myself!

...Ah, if you aren't either a man or a woman, I suppose you'll just have to pick one to be counted as... I hope no one games the system that way...

[So yeah standard IC Beauty Pageant here.]

Does anyone want to hug?

[...]

That's not what I meant to write - I want to bake a cake with some wonderful person who's talented enough to hang out with me and take a snuggle-

Crumpets!

[Sure is a Lollipops Sunshine and Rainbows virus.]

What's your favorite comic?

I have been informed that is unfair to spend one of my Psychology classes playing nothing but Pink Floyd albums and not do the same for the rest. So, to my morning class tomorrow, please prepare to relax.

Of course, you will still have to analyze the Wall through the lens of Carl Jung's concept of individuation for homework. But during the class itself I encourage you to sing along to all the songs you know, and you will not be graded for pitch or accuracy.

All right, so apparently the harp's not a standard weapon, I get that.

What do you fight with?

[It's daytime, and the female Eater looks... mildly annoyed.]

Is anyone particularly skillful at restringing harps? Mine are always out of tune after my other half uses our harp as a bludgeoning weapon, and any advice on how to speed up the process would add up quickly.

Would anyone like a Tarot reading?

So, personally, I think this blind date thing is stupid, but I found her list of pairs and figured I'd give you all a warning about who's getting who.

( Cut is IC. )

I feel really bad for the guy she paired herself with.

ANON MEME

You know the drill. Drop your name here and everyone else will tell you what they really think of you.

[Or put 'dropped by Eater' in the subject if your character wouldn't do that. Whichever!]

I see we've had a virus full of despair and sadness. However, since people are not really dead [she assumes], I feel justified in saying that we could use a pick-me-up! Would you not agree? That is why I am organizing blind dates for the community.

For those who do not know how blind dates work, it is very simple! You may sign yourself up for one, or your friends may sign you up if they feel that you could use the experience. When the time comes, I will randomly select pairs to put together, and then I will arrange for you two to spend an entire day together! I will of course pick you up after the day is out, hopefully after a day full of merriment and getting to know someone new.

By the way, this need not be strictly romantic, so feel free to join even if you already have a beloved. After all, we could always use new friends, could we not?

The day I assign pairs and take you to your rendezvous will be in three weeks, on the 24th. That should be plenty of time to have all the people who might consider joining the event decide to take part.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask me!

[The OOC planning post is right here!]

[It's nighttime in Rose's world. Eater gives the camera a grin.]

I finally got this stupid thing to turn on the camera, you wouldn't believe how hard that is with books.

Oi. Ducks. I'm kind of sore that she got to introduce herself to the multiverse-spanning community and didn't even mention me. Don't you think having a split personality is important?

So, pleased to meetcha. I'm Eater. She's Eater too, but if you can't tell us apart from just the way we talk - well, you're pretty dumb, to be honest? Also she's the one who's out in the daytime, and I'm the one out at night.

One last thing. Pronouns. I'm a guy. A guy. So I'd appreciate it if you'd treat me like one who happens to be in a frilly dress.

Okay, thanks.

[He messes with the book for a moment before it turns off the camera.]

How convenient! I was just looking for a new world to travel to. Does anyone have any recommendations?
