( open; ) summer episode part 2?
WHO: Any Outsider is more than welcome!
WHAT: Dating shows... I was bullied.
WHERE: Between Okinawa & Neo Tokyo.
WHEN: Throughout the remainder of July (listen, it's a production)!
WARNINGS: Partial nudity, alcohol, potential suggestive topics, and will update 'em as I see 'em!
Throughout the city of Neo Tokyo and even Okinawa, there will be advertisements posted by the hundreds (and spam mail to your oculars by an equal number), desiring candidates for a show. While the aftermath of vegas and other bleak instances might have led way for people practicing some semblance of moderation— opposite to that, the people also need their entertainment, don't they?
Fortunately, there will be an influx of dating shows looking for people to appear. They are offering a fairly decent amount of money and are even offering luxury experiences for free for participants. In this economy and food shortage??? Okay, the food may be lacking, but they do make up for it in various activities they have planned, where people can kick back, relax, and romance?
While there will be any number of shows looking for interested parties, these are the main shows/premises:
* It can be assumed any of this is just open to general CR you want to spend time with, too. This is just supposed to be a silly log for chances for characters to get to know one another! Characters are more than welcome to assume they stumble upon this by accident, think it's just a basic job and can't leave, film or unfilmed (minus the commentary prompt), and whatever else! Feel free to tag freely, threadjack, etc!

While there will be any number of shows looking for interested parties, these are the main shows/premises:
SPEED DATING
As the label suggests. People will be expected to sit down and switch through several partners. In their hands will be a card labeling who they encounter and a place to leave a check mark. They will also be given a list of questions that can be answered.
PARTNER SWAP
People can be on a show and swap partners. This doesn't necessarily need to be romantic, either. Have a friend you want to show up with, cool. The only rules are that the pairs who enter together cannot stay together during the duration of the show.
SINGLES INFERNO
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to be trapped on a deserted island with other hot singles? Well, now you no longer have to wonder. They will need to cook and fend for themselves here with minimal activities or distraction— but, isn't that the point? All you need to focus on is each other! (* They will be ferried to an outer island by Okinawa). While on the island, which they label as inferno, it's also a rule that one cannot speak about their age, occupation, or any such personal details. All of this will be reserved for "paradise." To go to paradise, two individuals will need to pick one another, and if they do — they are able to go on to completed various luxury experiences together.
For those who would rather find paradise in inferno together, you can presume there are tents that act as shared dormitory quarters where contestants will stay together.
DATE ME
People are free to use this for just general dates. Maybe, you just want to finesse the system and enjoy a fun all-expense-paid for date in which you get to eat like relative kings and enjoy various experiences. Feel free to use anything in the setting to your desire.
SKINSHIP STARTER
... a show where you get paid the more skinship you do. Don't do anything you wouldn't do in a Wendy's though. (That's not how the saying actually goes).
COMMENTARY PANEL
Every good dating show needs those who simply sit and commentate, right?
* It can be assumed any of this is just open to general CR you want to spend time with, too. This is just supposed to be a silly log for chances for characters to get to know one another! Characters are more than welcome to assume they stumble upon this by accident, think it's just a basic job and can't leave, film or unfilmed (minus the commentary prompt), and whatever else! Feel free to tag freely, threadjack, etc!

And my, isn't this an interesting question to ask? He gives his opponent an intrigued look. ]
Law is what defines an illegal act. Instated with the intention of establishing order in a community, one can be forgiven for assuming that they do not greatly differ from region to region. I would ask that you preface your question by specifying which laws you refer to, but truthfully, my answer will not change no matter what you say.
Knowing that I could commit a single illegal act with absolute impunity would not change my behaviour whatsoever.
[ His statement could be taken to mean that he would never commit a crime even without fear of punishment. But interpreted in another way... ]
no subject
[ Though Ratio's reply is well-thought out and rational, Set is fast on his toes.
Leaning back, he crosses one leg over the other beneath the pleated fall of his dark robe, the golden-toned waistband gleaming in the light. With his back to the couch he's lounging upon, he looks modest but stylish — and answers with a warm tone. A false tone, to say the least; he's got to ham it up for an audience, after all. Some might want to keep their pride and starve, but he will keep his pride and have everything — playing to an audience is, to him, an intelligent move. A cunning one.
He's more shameless in that, having been taught well by a demonic mentor. ]
That is, law derived from the will of the gods. It is the law of nature, the origin of justice and it is the precursor to laws that men made for themselves. The behavior you define yourself by is derived from the ancient maintenance of relations. That is all law is.
[ He does smile, brightly and sharply ( his pupils blowing wide, before retracting into thin, cat-like slits ) at the clever play upon term and word. Now, he wonders if it is a line to pursue upon a televised broadcast, or something to sit back and discuss in private. At least he can drop a question in his own follow-up, waving his hands before himself as he laughs: ] You're so serious!
This is speed dating, not an ethics classroom. Keep it up and I'll have to take you backstage and trade you out.
no subject
Alas, it is a shame they are not speaking at a philosophical symposium, where they can explore the topic to their hearts' content. ]
If my conduct displeases you, then this speed dating has accomplished its purpose, no? You will have discovered that we are incompatible. It would be folly to continue, should that be the case.
[ Yet, based on Set's response, he doesn't think that to be true. ]
it's ok sky they're basically twins
[ Ratio is, in fact, picking up what Set is saying underneath his showing for the audience. It's a polite way of saying "I'm ditching this round but brb" to their faces, while simultaneously using it as a reason to escort the man off camera for a different conversation. One that doesn't belong before the eyes and ears of others.
But first, he wants to keep playing for a little while longer. ]
Order and rationality are important to you, huh?
tears
But first, this. ]
Rationality begets order, but order without rationality only leads to collapse. There must be logic behind law, and it must be logic that the majority agree with for it to be valuable as an instrument to maintain relationships. I happen to agree with the logic behind the laws that would pertain to my everyday activities, so I feel no need to defy them.
no subject
[ With ease, he rises from his seat and rounds the low table that divides the space between their two lounging couches, offering his hand to Ratio; not once has his smile faltered, nor has his tone twisted into anything nasty. If anything, he's genuinely enjoying parrying intellectual conversation with this man — but the camera-person is looking a little alarmed, as if perhaps the show ought to cut to commercial because "philosophy debate" is not exactly the most palatable content to sell to an audience. ]
While not incompatible with you, I do think this is an ill-suited conversation for our environment. Might I escort you backstage, to give someone else the floor for the time being?
slow backtag life....
[ And he is, because he does not believe in letting the Aeons or Geniuses dictate the lives of humanity. No, every person must grasp their own fate in defiance to everything against them.
Poor cameraman, this is truly not one for television. Ratio does not grab Set's hand, but he rises at the invitation, a subtle curve on his lips. ]
Very well. I believe this is in accordance to the crew's wishes?
[ The producer behind the camera just nods with a tired look on their face. Get out, ya damn weirdos. With a satisfied expression, he starts moving to the rest area backstage. ]
