[BBS | ACTION] Date Auction

[eggplantallergy]

[Gakupo must be getting better at video entries, because here comes another one! He's holding a notebook, as usual, and smiling.]

Greetings! This is your GFC leader with a new flash! We will be holding a Date Auction the weekend before Homecoming! So that's about a week from now! Various members of our student body, and maybe even some instructors, will be auctioned off for dates! All proceeds will go towards the Centra Orphanage!

For those of you interested in being auctioned off, please drop off your name on a piece of paper at the table in the quad. One submission per person, please! There will be GFC members with a box to submit names! For those of you interested in getting a great date, then save up your money!

[He looks seriously into the camera, a kind of dark shadow over his face.] It is discouraged for one to put in their friend's name into the box without their expressed permission. [He's not outright saying not to do it, though.]

Please come out and support the GFC with this event! [Back to smiling] The more participation, the better we can make this year's Homecoming events! [Fist pump! C'mon guys! Get excited!] If you have any questions, feel free to leave them on this post!

[Checks his notebook and nods firmly.] Yep, I think that's it! [Closes it and looks to the lens.] Have a great day, everyone! Until next time! [Leans forward to turn off the camera.


Gakupo stands in the quad with a box on a table, studying for that language class.]

[David's ninjaing in two names, on two perfectly flush-stacked slips of paper written in different styles: "Jade Strider" and "Rose Lalonde".

For glory.

Or something.

Light powers are awesome.]

[OOOPS he forgot he has more brothers to tease now. With completely different handwriting and even pen color, he adds Tim Drake and Damian Wayne's names inside of the box]

[She has no interest in dating or any of this sort of thing, and no one will bid on her anyway, but raising money for charity and orphans is the right thing to do. So in goes Maria's name.]

[notthelostgirl.livejournal.com]

[An orphanage, huh? It's a nice good cause, so she adds Rose Tyler to the box.]

[redcinemareel]

[Puts in her name, and Equius'. They need more advertising!]

[...Orphans? Well the idea seems kinda...weird. Degrading, and completely unromantic but. Poor, lusus-less cubs ;n; Nepeta will put her name in after some heavy consideration: Nepeta Leijon]

[You know what are awesome?]

[Bugs.]

[You know what is even better?]

[Bugs in small dark places.]

[Guess who might be keeping eyes on this special box, eyes all around, in well, insect form, and whenever a good moment passes by, guess what crawls its way into the box? Oh yes, bugs, mostly spiders, things that bite.]

[Wonder how many get in before anyone notices.]

[eggplantallergy]

[Oblivious to the bugs. Ew, bugs. Turns a page.]

[fierybluebird]

[Marco is totally watching this from a tree completely snickering by the way. Best roommate ever.]

Well, it's not really 'selling' people, but paying for that person's time for a good cause! That may not sound any better, but please don't think of it as selling people like slaves. It's not like that at all!

[ So stoked. The people working the booth might actually see her smile as she pulls the greatest prank known to man. ]

[eggplantallergy]

[If only he was paying attention. Oh you darn kids and your pranks!

Looks up to see her submitting a name.] Thank you for your contribution!

[tortileghostwriter]

[And if Gakupo's working the booth, he might see a boy who looks remarkably like Rose--down to the unusual eye color, even--suddenly standing a few feet away. Smirking a little bit.]

[eggplantallergy]

[Goes to look in his backpack for a pen before spotting a familiar looking figure. He blinks because while it looks incredibly like Rose, it...somehow isn't.]

[Coming over, curious]

So, what's a date auction?

[eggplantallergy]

[Pauses in his studying and looks to her.] Oh! It's where you bid for a date with the person being auctioned off!
