Taste of Heaven Pair 2 [Invite Only]

Guest

Corbin paused, almost dramatically, before reading out the next pair: Dimitri and Carlotta. "The rest of you can drink and mingle while our two chosen ones get comfortable. When it's time to announce the next pair, I'll call for you to gather again," he said.

To the pair, in a lower tone, he added, "Consent is the key word. If either of you so much as think of doing something the other doesn't agree to, there will be fudging hell to pay, am I clear?" His tone was void of any emotion, dark and dangerous; he was serious. "Should either attempt, the safe word is, simply, 'dolvina'. Commit it to memory -- dolvina." Pausing for a moment, he made sure to look both individual in the eyes before continuing. "This is for emergencies only, meaning you cannot -- and you will not -- use it simply because you don't enjoy the company of the other."

There was a low threat in his tone, indicating that nasty things would happen should the phrase be used otherwise, but what these were he didn't say. Instead, with a smirk, he motioned towards the door. "Enjoy," he said, waiting for them to enter before he started the timer.

OOC Things to note:

1) These pairings were genuinely made with a pairing generator online, with the only edited tweaks being when siblings or two characters of the same handler were paired, in which case names were randomly switched.

I'm sorry if you don't like your pairing.

2) As your characters won't know how long they have to spend in the room (it can be anywhere from 7 minutes to 15 minutes, and is completely random), Mads and I have decided that neither will you (surprise? heh).

As such, keep posting with each other and after the allocated time (we'll estimate from the writing), we'll post as Corbin or Lucy and 'open' the door, ending the thread.

IF you want to include a timeline at the bottom (for example, OOC: it's been one minute in this thread) feel free to, although try and remember that the time they could be locked together is between SEVEN and FIFTEEN minutes (so keeping the count after seven to one minute at a time would be helpful for us <3)

3) Enjoy! <3 If you have questions, feel free to ask me or Maddie. Smile

We hope you enjoy it and that your characters don't suffer -- too much -- from being forced into a small, tight space with random people. Having said that, we're not sorry, and neither are Corbin or Lucy. xD <3

Dimitri's eyes, throughout the evening had, in reality, been on a Slytherin witch with blonde hair. Lucy. But, Dimitri's flirting skills... well, they left a lot to be desired, in truth, even if he believed himself to be good at it. Having just about gotten ready to go and speak with Lucy, Dimitri was cut short with the news that they would be playing a game.

Finding himself interested in what in Merlin's name 'Seven Minutes in Heaven' was, Dimitri listened in to the rules. Being single, he had no qualms in playing this game, and the fact it wasn't to be... well, openly told about afterwards, Dimitri was definitely going to enjoy this... so long as his partner was willing, of course.

Looking around the room at the options, Dimitri couldn't help but quirk an eyebrow upon finding himself paired with Carlotta, a fellow Ravenclaw. He didn't know much about the witch, other than a passing hello and a how are you, they'd rarely spoken. But... she was very attractive, so it wasn't a bad match.

Moving to the door, Dimitri held it open for the witch, giving her a small smile, and nodding his understanding to Corbin that he'd taken in the rules, and the sfe word, should he need it.

Carlotta had been more than simply fashionably late to the party. She was the sort of late that bordered on rudeness. That had certainly not been her intention, truly. No, it was the fact that her hair had refused to compromise when she had tried to pull it up into a pretty up-do. Unfortunately, upon seeing the time, she relented and just left her hair down, as per usual.

She'd entered the room dressed casually, while Corbin was in the middle of explaining the game they were starting. Seven Minutes in Heaven, Carlotta had heard of, but had never played before. Placing the large bottle of potion that she'd bought along (something supposedly to help with hangovers) on the table, she mouthed an apology to Corbin and Lucy and made herself a drink.

After the first pair had finished in the room, Corbin read out the next pair of names, which included her and a fellow Ravenclaw, Dimitri, someone she hadn't really spoken to properly. Perhaps this would be fairly interesting.

She made her way over to the door, nodding at Corbin to show that she understood his warning. As Dimitri held the door open for her, she gave hi a small smile "Thank you," she murmured as she walked in to the incredibly small room.
