Let's face it, sometimes it's difficult finding someone to share your time, and your heart (or maybe just your body), with. Luckily for you, you have well meaning friends. Unfortunately for you, you have well meaning friends who didn't tell you this was coming. That's right. They have taken it upon themselves (and no doubt friends of friends or family members or someone else who clearly doesn't know you) to arrange a date. Without telling you.
That's right. The dreaded blind date. Which means now you've got to get through at least a reasonable amount of time with a total stranger (or maybe not a stranger if you're particularly, well, we can't say if it's lucky or not) before you can reasonably escape. Maybe it will go well. Maybe this will be the start of the rest of your lives. Maybe you'll get laid. Maybe you'll have a horror story for the ages.
No matter what plays out, though, you're here. Might as well see just how your luck is going to play out.
How to Play1. Post your character and canon below along with any preferences. Then go back and edit your comment with the next number in order (i.e. first TL is 1, second is 2, etc) 2. Tag other TLs. If a character isn't in normal preferences, ask if they might want a date that goes poorly instead! 3. Optionally, get yourself a truly blind experience by going here and randomly generating a number. Then find the matching TL (numbered back in step one) and enjoy your blind date. 4. For more fun, use the list in the first comment for randomized date locations!

It looks like it's blended with the Chocolate Mint today, so I'm going to have to have them together. I'm excited.

IT is a delight.
"These tastes are so creamy and wonderful."

Family stuff. I'm not usually dragged out to their parties, but this time I was... encouraged.
[But he's relieved to just not have to go through this alone.]

"Are you sure? It's really awkward. I should be getting to know you."

[He chucklse and shakes his head. As if he was smart enough for that.]

Because sometimes people make life harder if you're you.

I think we're done?

Alright. Then let me just get the server.

"You tell me a little bit about you. I tell you a little bit about me."

Also? "I like basketball as well, though. Rugby is my favorite, though."
A beat. "Do you play anything else? Like outside of school?"
(no subject)
Play anything else outside of school? Not sport wise, but he's shy about this.
"I guess I'm a bit of a nerd. I've done a bit of D&D."
(no subject)
You should tell me more about you, too.
(no subject)
"Bit of a nerd, yes. Especially if you're good at maths." Nick remarks, smiling at Teddy. He thinks it's cute.
"D&D's not my thing, but I play video games." He pets the cat that's settled with him, warm eyes watching Teddy curiously.

"I guess I'm a nerd and a geek, and video games are nice, but I invest a lot of the time I'd use for that into comics if I'm fully honest."

"Are you and your sister close then?"
(no subject)
Um, I'm a college student, I'm focused on English Lit, and my mom is, needless to say, disappointed. I work in the food service industry to support myself, my best friend has a green thumb like you'd never believe, and I've been known to dole out thoughtful advice from time to time over tables like this. How's that for a start?

[Iggy smiles.]
I think it's a great start. And there's nothing wrong with food service.
