Case 50 - Turnabout Dance

[little_thief]

[After hearing that announcement from Quinn about the prom, Kay is struck with the most brilliant idea she's ever had.  Clearly, the entire town needs to hear about it.  To the phones!]

[Phone; filtered from drones]

Hey, everyone!  So, looks like it's prom season again!  I know there's a lot of new people in town who probably haven't really met anyone yet, and also that there are a lot of shy guys and girls in town who can't work up the courage to ask that cute classmate or neighbor of theirs to the dance, so I'm gonna help you guys out!  Kay Faraday's dating service is now open for business!  Just give me a call or drop a note in the mailbox at 505 Ricardo Street and tell me what you're looking for in a potential prom date, and I'll use a very scientific matching process to pair you up with your perfect partner!  All of your information will be kept totally confidential, and there's no charge for the service, so there's really no reason at all not to take advantage of this.  And who knows - you might really hit it off with your date and find true love and happiness!  I'll be waiting for your calls, 'kay?

..."Very scientific matching process"?

[thief-of-truth.livejournal.com]

Right!

"This isn't one of those boy hat and girl hat and grab name things?"

[thief-of-truth.livejournal.com]

Of course not! Only the best for my clients!

[ohlookboobs.livejournal.com]

Hey, Kay - mind if an expert on this sort of stuff gives you a hand?

[thief-of-truth.livejournal.com]

Sure, who is it? A friend of yours?

[trolololol, nah, she's just playin']

[instaboobs]

You're just gonna pair people off like that?

[thief-of-truth.livejournal.com]

Sure, what's wrong with that?

[timetables.livejournal.com]

Why do chicks always want to play matchmaker, it's uncanny.

[thief-of-truth.livejournal.com]

Would you like to sign up for the service?

[sting-like-a.livejournal.com]

Ooooooh, matchmaking! Do you need any help with that, Kay? I'm an expert on this stuff, you know~

[thief-of-truth.livejournal.com]

Yeah, definitely! You can help me pick out the matches!

[gandere]

If someone drops the name 'Rin Tohsaka' off, do me a favor and toss it out.

[thief-of-truth.livejournal.com]

Really? Okay...

[inababanchou.livejournal.com]

But I already have a date.

[thief-of-truth.livejournal.com]

Congratulations, then!

[wizardoftheweek.livejournal.com]

... You must be joking.

[thief-of-truth.livejournal.com]

Huh? Why would I be joking?

[justiceinamask.livejournal.com]

Hmmm... I have no idea what prom is, but it sounds like it could be fun! Count me in!

[thief-of-truth.livejournal.com]

Okay! I'll need your name and what you look for in a romantic partner.

[micronation]

Do you have to go with someone?

[thief-of-truth.livejournal.com]

Well, you don't have to, but people usually have dates, yeah.

[hideandhero.livejournal.com]

Couldn't hurt if it was just one date. I want someone that isn't a kid. There's so many of those around here. Blond hair is preferable but I'm pretty flexible. The name is Commissar Ciaphas Cain.

[thief-of-truth.livejournal.com]

Any personality preference? Oh, and you're into girls, right?

[gottimedout.livejournal.com]

... and a 'prom' is what for this purpose?

[thief-of-truth.livejournal.com]

Oh! It's a dance. People bring dates and stuff. Usually it's just for high school students, but the whole town is invited to this one.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

[[Hey, great idea! He's pretty intimidated about the idea of actually asking someone out considering how well he picks them.

He's about to speak into the phone when he thinks about the fact he is about to ask the girl he kinda had a crush on to help him find a date.

She'll get a moment of silence then a click as he quickly hangs up!]]

[thief-of-truth.livejournal.com]

...Hello?

[Staring at the receiver.]

Huh. Guess they hung up.

[click]

[thief-of-truth.livejournal.com]

That's the second request I've gotten today for that.

[lunawolves10th.livejournal.com]

Explain this prom, and dating.

[thief-of-truth.livejournal.com]

Uh, wow. Okay. Um, let's see. A prom is a big end of the year dance for kids in high school. Usually just the ones in their last year. But this one's open to the whole town. You get dressed up, and bring a date, and spend all night dancing and hanging out with friends and stuff. As for dating, I'm not sure I can really help you that much if you don't already know about it. I guess it's just finding someone you enjoy being around and doing things together a lot. It's different from just being friends, though, because there's also kissing and stuff.

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

. . . Do you really know a lot about this kind of thing?

[thief-of-truth.livejournal.com]

Sure! I give dating advice all the time!

OOC

[grand-theft-moe.livejournal.com]

Anyone can feel free to drop Chizuko's name in. And maybe Twenty Faces too?

[devilsummer.livejournal.com]

Seriously? I didn't know this town had a dating service. That's totally awesome.

I was really worried I wouldn't find a date in time. Do you think you could help me out?

[thief-of-truth.livejournal.com]

Sure! Oh man, and I was worried I wouldn't get enough girls. Okay, what's your name?
