Thursday DE: speed dating (or speed hating) edition

You ever feel like it’s hard to meet characters? Hard to find reasons to throw two characters together, and not sure you want to commit to a whole scene? Let’s try speed dating: Comment with your characters below, and people will tag in for a speed date. To simulate the time limit, each conversation can go no longer than 7 tags from each person. Characters who come as a set can absolutely join too, nothing wrong with a three-way or more-way date! (And no, these absolutely do not have to be dating-type conversations. Speed arguing, speed hating, speed friendly chatting, those are good too. Just throw characters at each other.)

This is all off-the-record, of course, not really IC. Unless someone has a character who wants to ICly set this up.

EDIT: this is open till whenever, tag on in!

"Well hello, short surly and handsome!"

Here's someone draping into the opposite seat. With, perhaps, a familiar face.

...what?

Also, what?

"--what?"

"Hello," he repeats carefully, "Short, surly, and handsome. That's you. In case you missed it."

"And who are you?" he retorts, because that-- seems easier than trying to delve into the meaning of that greeting.

"I am Loki of Asgard." Ugh, mortals. He's really got to make himself better known here. "And you are...?"

"Harry Percy, called Hotspur." Like Loki, there's a vague air of hope that the name might be recognized. ...but yeah, probably not. Not with clothes like that. And where is Asgard?

Mmmmmm....nope. Never heard of him. "Delighted to meet you. I believe we're supposed to make small talk and flirt lightly."
