1.1: Date Auction
Well hey there guys, gals, and non-binary pals (as well as creatures and beings that have no adherence to the human concept of gender)! Would you look at that? It sure is time for Dodo’s Doki Doki Date Auction!!
Ballroom Bliss
On this fine evening, step through a doorway, any doorway at all, and find yourself whisked off to a lovely ballroom. What’s that? You’ve never seen this room in Dodo House before? Don’t worry about it! The clouds painted upon the ceiling move gently overhead, and the blue skies will shift beautifully through the phases of the sky, all the way from dusk to dawn and back again. While you’ve been whisked away in the clothes you were wearing prior, maybe you didn’t intend to come to the event at all! If that’s the case, and you’re not dressed, there appears to be a lovely magical coat check at the entrance. You may peruse through the offerings of seemingly limitless clothes to change, or you may get abducted by an especially eager coat rack, now sentient in its reach and pushiness.
Aside from the ceiling mural, many white decorations grace the space. Though as the night goes on, there will be a few bubbles that seem to manifest out of nowhere–little pockets of excess energy carrying all of Dodo’s hopes and dreams, perhaps? Growing into contact with one might invite any number of behaviors, including but not limited to:
» Everyone’s a Critic: During the Date Auction blurbs, maybe you just have a really strong opinion on them! Have something to say about someone’s fashion sense? Do you remember making out with that guy on stage and feel like everyone needs to know he’s only a 3/10? The people deserve to know!
» With Whose Money? You’re into bidding now. Like, really into bidding. Maybe you don’t have the money for the bid and actually want to bid something else, like the promise of a long romantic cruise despite the fact that the ports are closed or a candlelit dinner complete with a watching of The Goofy Movie. How could you not win with bets like those?
» At First Sight: A little brush against the bubble and–pop! The next person you see suddenly makes the lights dim, the music swell, the part of your heart that yearns to be known leap out of your ribcage and into their waiting hands. It’s your K-Drama moment. Seize it.
All Bubble Effects can last as long as players would like! However all effects will clear once they exit the ballroom.

Under the Spotlight
Of course, can’t forget the reason that you’re all here in the first place! One by one, characters will be called up to the center stage at the front of the room. Behind them, a Powerpoint Presentation in Comic Sans explaining who they are will pitch them as a date. (You know the ones.) This information can include their Name, AU Life Facts, OU Life Facts, Likes, Dislikes, Ideal Date - whatever you dream of. However, the announcer will also provide crowdsourced blurbs introducing them. Without further ado, please read them all here! At the end of blurb reading, the microphone will be passed over to the auctionee. Anything you'd like to say on your behalf?

What a magical night.
The Morning After
Regardless of the outcome of the date auctions, characters may find themselves with a dainty corsage of white flowers... which won't come off. But getting rid of these floral bands is simple: find the person with a matching corsage, and go on a date together!
"Date" is an exaggeration, though. Spending some time together, whether it's immediately after the auction or in the days after, will count. Then the corsage will slip right off! Ignore it though, and it'll set off allergies you didn't even know you had.
OOCly, these are your randomized dates, but players are welcome to go on additional dates and plan their own outings based on the date auction as well!
