date auction! forward dated to Wednesday lunch

[wrnpcs]

[The quad's all set up for the date auction! A handsome-looking blonde guy - one of the native cadets on the GFC - is center stage with the list and a mic, auctionees (and Headmaster Cid, sipping on a drink supervising) ready behind him. (Alas, Pinkie is out campaigning or something, and Mikuru is doing some last minute work elsewhere and doesn't like the stage anyway.)

[He flashes a smile.] Gooooood afternoon, ladies and gentlemen and everyone else! I'm Russell Drake from the Garden Festival Committee, and I'd like to welcome you all to the GFC's second charity date auction! Once again all proceeds will be going towards the Centra orphanage, so please be generous with your bids! Bids start at 1 gil and we do not take rain checks or IOUs!

We have a fantastic bunch of volunteers for your dating pleasure today, so without further ado, let's get started!

Each person has their own thread. Please put your bids in the subject lines so people can see them! Threads collapse after fifty comments, so using the subject lines will make the bids easier to see.

Bids close and winners will be posted on Friday before the carnival post goes up. IC-ly, the winners will be announced Wednesday afternoon.

If you missed signups, PM wrmods and we'll squeeze them in as an IC "saw the auction on the day, hopped onstage and harassed the GFC to auction them off" auction. Just characters who would willingly sign up at this point, please!

Indeed I am, but you might say I've been too busy to go about trying to woo just any woman here.

[That and he has no actual reason to look like a womanizer here. Therefore that part of his charade has not been trotted out yet you might say. He's willing to let the boy heckle him about it however, since it's all in good fun at the moment.]

Getting picky now you have more than one world of them to choose from, is that it?

[Quietly, since he's here anyway, he wonders how much it would annoy the general if he placed a bid. But nah, anything entertaining he'd get out of that probably wouldn't be worth the embarrassment it inflicted on him.]

I do have standards that must be met. Unfortunately, not many here have yet to meet those standards when I have had the time for a little R & R.

[Not that he's actually gone looking really, but the boy doesn't need to know that.]
