The contestants are led to the beach, for where else would this take place? The sun has long set, the stars sparkling above the darkened waves that shore at a safe distance behind their seats, and the area is lit with a bonfire and strung lantern lights to really give the atmosphere some romance to the air...
Those unmatched will be sat together on one side, single seats facing a
podium with two panels to press. On the other side... are seats yet to be filled, far comfier and double wide for a pair. There's also plenty of food and non-alcoholic drinks to have, which seems especially prepared considering the resort is leaning "ingredient household-core" with some fun snacks mixed in, so maybe it's worth chowing down while you can?
Nonetheless! Enjoy your time for a bit, pick out from a closet of a variety of outfits the budget definitely went towards, promise, and settle in! Because once your
hostess takes to the stage, smile bright and radiant beneath the moon, it's time for the ceremony to begin.
"Welcome, one and all, to Lover's Cove's first match ceremony! The rules are simple: I'll be calling up those on Team Non-chan one by one, and they'll speak on who they're choosing! You'll both put your hands on this podium here. The goal..."
And she'll lift her hand to a display of tiki torches, which are electric despite their authentic appearance.
"Is to get even
one of these to light up, especially since you guys didn't manage to guess a Perfect Match on your first Truth Booth!" A sigh, a flip of her hair. "I guess we can't all be so lucky. They tell us just how many of you picked right, but not who -- so it's on you to figure out which had the right idea, and which ones just had their own taste!
"Otherwise, it's a black out and someone loses a wish." Anna waits a beat, staring at her hopeless losers, then at the camera. "I think that'd be pretty sad, so let's totally crush it instead. Alright! With that out of the way... Let's begin!"
Each member of Team Non-chan'll be randomly called up under the
selections top level, so feel free to rubberneck there!
After the matches are called, the results will be posted under the -- well, the
results top level, to see how many lights managed to get lit!
Outside of that, feel free to use this log for any reactions, catherding, whatever you want for the match ceremony.
