Warnings: WHO KNOWS WHAT MIGHT HAPPEN.

Floor Thirty-Eight. Normally just a simple lounge, it was now Party Central.

It was clear Eikichi had put all of his heart into it. Say what you wanted about him, but he was a good manager and organizer. The place didn't look the same, with the flower bouquets strewing in odd corners, the bright pieces of tissues hung around like garlands. They had no balloons so they made with. A few banners hung into the air, the words crudely painted with Maya's name and wishing her a happy birthday. There was also a few others with the names of the birthdays Eikichi had managed to get.

At the entrance, there was a a few large baskets filled with corsages that Jun had prepared - acacias white (friendship and chaste love), yellow (secret love) and pink (friendship), white violets (Purity; Candor; Modesty; Innocence; Let's take a chance on happiness) and pink roses (Perfect happiness, please believe me; Friendship) expertly woven pieces of stems and grass meant it required no other materials than the flower themselves.

Of course, the meanings were not written. You just had a few to chose from. Then you could offer one to your date to wear on their hand...if you wished.

As Eikichi had said, no pressure.

...Except for coming, of course.

Those that were part of the blind dates had each been given a small piece of paper with a symbol.As they entered they could see a small sign instructing to try and find the other person with the same symbol. This would be their 'date' of the night.

On the farthest left to the entrance, they had dragged in a gigantic music system, with an area for a DJ to run (Tatsuya had helped with the wiring). Some large pieces of metals had been lined up to cover the floor, making a fake stage and on top of that, he had placed various instruments - along with those of his band, of course. The stage would be open for them to play later, regardless.

The main area reserved for food was a few tables that had been dragged in here, covered with whatever tissues they had found and filled with all the food they could take - some of it was typical stuff found in the cafeteria this week (but no gross stuff - Eikichi didn't want living maggots in his cheese today), the rest had been made by those nice enough to help with the cooking. There wasn't that much typical 'party food' as creating your own sweets and chips does take a while, but the jerky meats, the hot soups and the vegetables more than made up for it. The drinks were placed right besides it and who knew how many trips they had needed to set it all up.

There were also cakes on the next table, enough to feed at least everyone in the part a generous slice. Considering the ingredients and the people involved they ranged from the very simple to baked pies using the available fruits, and a single cake which appeared to have more work than the others. They did with what they had, and it was fantastic they had so much at all.

All the chairs and bags found in that room normally were tossed in a corner facing the central area so that people could sit down if they felt like it, but the central area was reserved to talk, mingle and dance once everything REALLY got underway.

It would soon too, once the crowds started to get bigger and bigger.

[OOC - Hello and welcome to the party log! Let's mingle and have fun because the tower doesn't let us have much of it. You can start a brand new thread when you are blind dating and mark them (EIKICHI AND MIYABI ), or if you want to do something like "JADE DJs A FEW SONGS FOR YOU" and people can reply to that. You can make multiple threads to a reply to, so if someone wants to talk to Eikichi, then someone else does later. Just make sure any closed threads are marked with [CLOSED] so other people know they can't pop in! Otherwise...it's free game.

[Optimistic. That's actually more than Kirigiri can say about herself, but she'd venture a guess that Yosuke has a better relationship with whoever signed him up than she has with Monobear.]

[She shakes her head. She has no particular interest in entertainment, and she doesn't know about Yosuke's tastes yet. Considering the requirements for getting through this incident, even this very second is a step forward, so she can't complain about whatever they end up going with. That aside, she doesn't have the necessary information to make a call.]

[Quite frankly, the thought of being able to infer what kind of person the man in front of her is based on his suggestions sounds more appealing than anything she can come up with.]

I will leave it to your discretion, Hanamura-kun.

[princeofjunes]

[Yep, definitely the serious type. But that's okay, he can work with it! He takes a moment to think, sizing her up with a hand to his chin. If he assumes she's like Naoto, then she's probably not really the massive party type. She'd likely be more comfortable somewhere a little quieter, but there's the issue of trust - namely does she really trust him enough to go somewhere when they're perfect strangers? He's not sure, but he might as well ask. What's the worst that can happen?]

Well, I was thinking a romantic candlelit dinner, then a long stroll on the beach, and then... who knows?

[Okay, he'll ask after a bad joke and a cheesy grin]

But seriously, you remind me of a friend of mine, so I'm guessing giant crowds and parties aren't really your thing. We could always go to the media room and just watch a movie or something? Or if you're the nature type, that meadow floor is a nice one to just relax on.

[The bad thing about knowing someone for half a minute? You don't really know the gestures that give their jokes away. Kirigiri lets the first statement sit in the air without response. It actually does take a little bit of effort to not react any further than looking at him in shock.]

[As soon as Yosuke continues, she seems to lighten up a bit.]

2/2

[superlvldots]

I see...

I wonder what kind of movies a place like this would have.

[After that last nature walk, Kirigiri's not in a hurry to see any meadows.]

[princeofjunes]

[Whew, he didn't bomb completely! Though maybe he should take it easy on the bad jokes. Not everyone gets his terrible sense of humor - he's lucky his own friends even tolerate it, let alone complete strangers]

I wouldn't mind finding out. If you don't mind though, I would like to try and catch the band when they play later - at least, I think there's one playing. I'm a big music fan, and I'm kind of curious. If that's okay?

[superlvldots]

[Kirigiri believes his words, given how the headphones around his neck seem to support his statement. The irony in the symbol they were given is not lost on her anymore.]

[She nods, willing to accommodate. She's not very particular about how this date goes, given how she doesn't see it as one herself.]

I agree. It could be interesting.

[She takes initiative, knowing where the media room is already. Might as well use this time to ask questions she finds relevant.]

You mentioned a friend of yours earlier. Was he also brought to this tower?

[princeofjunes]

[He hesitates for a second as he follows a half step behind her, wondering if he should correct her on the gender of friend in question. Then again, it's not like she's been going out of her way to hide it lately, right? And if she has he hasn't noticed, so sorry Naoto if he's about to out you badly]

She, actually, and yeah. She's the one person from home who got here before I did. She... vanished for a little while though, but she's back now. You've probably seen her around - snazzy suit, cool hat, short as heck.
