DATE AUCTION [OPEN]

Who: Everyone ♥
What: It's the date auction! Get your bids ready, folks!
When: Day 338
Where: At the festival
Rating: PG


Near the center of the courtyard, a medium-sized stage has been set up, complete with banners proclaiming the event. ("Find your perfect date and help Asgard rebuild!") The auction is due to start any time now, and quite a crowd has already gathered around the area.

Why not stop by and see which unfortunate victims travelers have been picked to be auctioned off? Maybe you can put in a bid yourself!


(ooc: As a note, everyone participating would have gotten a message from Rise the day before to inform them they've been signed up! That part is handwaved, as there are so many participants!)


EDIT: All the threads have been posted now. Thanks for your patience, and happy bidding!

Well, he certainly hadn't expected to be the only one to bid, she was a rather beautiful woman after all, and no doubt had friends in this place. He turned around slightly to take a look at his competition, and couldn't hold back a small smile at that hint of playfulness in the other's expression. He probably knew her, then, and perhaps was trying to tease her a bit, just like he would if it had been-

No, he probably shouldn't think about that right now.

Still, he wasn't exactly going to give in just now. After all, it was only good manners to keep bidding a while before someone had to fold, right? So raised his hand with a grin right back at the young man, before turning back toward the podium. "I guess I raise with seven more, then."

Having the bid raised wasn't unexpected. In fact, he would've been quite surprised if the other man hadn't done so. He might not have had a lot of experiences with date auctions, but he knew how they worked. And a little competition likely wasn't going to hurt anything here. In fact, it'd give him a good idea how serious this other chap was about winning the bidding.

He brought a hand to his chin, rubbing it for a moment as he considered. Five and seven were twelve more over what'd been bid originally, which made it...still in a place where he could add a wee bit more without a problem.

"Alright, then. I'll add another eight."
