For Eliora, anyway.

After splitting with Nate, mere weeks ago, actually.. She needed something to distract her, that wasn't the dirty nappies that Levi presented her every few hours. But sure, this was just where she was going to pick someone up. Or something. And at least learn their name.

After having five cups of coffee before leaving home earlier, she was HERE. Here, although she didn't want to be. Taking a seat, Eliora looked around hoping that someone would at least take a seat soon. A male. An attractive male.

... Should she have been looking for someone who had kids already? Was that what her life was now that she was a single mother of two?

Why hadn't Rusty married her yet?

Seriously, he was missing out.


It wasn't that he didn't want to be here. Well, okay, truth be told it rather was. Which was maybe why he ended up at the orientation at all. Life lessons often taught that putting oneself in uncomfortable and unwanted situations could yield interesting results. Mind the notation of 'interesting', not 'good' and not 'bad'.

And interesting should have been his middle name.

So, Rhydian picked the most interesting thing to do. Which was, look for the table that had the conversation cards on it so he could edit them to what he viewed as more appropriate starters. There was some disappointment in finding that that table, or those tables, had been moved. And the cards? Well, they must not have appreciated his handi-work. They were all gone.

Instead, there was some form of speed-talking tables set up. Something which piqued his interest quite clearly. Especially when he caught sight of a person all on their lonesome. No one was going to take the seat across? They were all just gonna amble by and let the person sit awkwardly?

Well, invitation recognized, recieved, processed and accepted. Without any accord, introduction or further ado, Rhydian moved over to the vacant chair and deposited himself in it across from the woman. "What do you say happens, if no one shows up to this thing? Do we just switch sides of the table, or are we expected to talk to ourselves?"

Which, no one should misunderstand. He could fully and adequately do. It was just less entertaining for himself. For viewers, that might be a bit of a different story.
