OPEN - (1: Natasha setting up blind dates for Steve Rogers / 2: dates with Steve Rogers)

[krasnayapautina]

WHO ||

1). PART ONE is: Natasha Romanoff + any ladies in particular of the castle who are at least over 18. (Please read this for more details, including how to sign up.)

2). PART TWO is: Steve Rogers + his dates!

WHAT || If you specified that you wanted to play out the initial interaction with Natasha, this is what is happening in the first part of this log. The second part of the log is the actual dates!

There will be a thread starter (edit: here now! ) for the initial interaction with Natasha (I'd rather multi-thread this than have it single thread, for the sake of my sanity). Jesse, however, is the guy to talk to about starters for the dates with Steve.

WHERE || In and around the castle, with Natasha. For Steve, anywhere the date is happening.
WHEN || Natasha and Steve talked again at the April after party, so we can say this is ... May/June? I can adjust if needed, however.
HOW || Prose or action.

[Jo is competitive, that's a good thing most of the time. She's usually around ego-fueled men that have a long-standing family tradition of handling things, so being able to push as hard as they do often helps. Of course, she's not sure what to expect when she accepts the offer to get set up with someone, but she figures a day or night away from the Castle and missions might be good. She's been away from London for almost a year, so she expects to at least have a good time.

She's not sure if he picked the event or if Natasha did, but Jo is clearly amused as she meets Steve.]

Was this your idea or just a suggestion from someone in the castle? [She extends her hand to shake his, offering some sort of pleasant greeting.] I'm Jo - since I'm pretty sure whatever information you got didn't come with a photo.

[ Steve is very understanding when it comes to tearing yourself away from the Castle. Since moving here he's been pretty well known to stay close to home. Though Natasha's idea to have these dates had pulled him away more often than he could really keep track of. He doesn't mind it though. He likes the time away. He's been doing a lot of fun things.

When Jo approaches he smiles and takes a deep breath. Happy to have laid eyes on here. The waiting is nerve wracking sometimes. ] Actually Nat suggested fun. It seemed--fun. I mean what's not fun about rolling around in a rubber hamster ball with a stranger? [ He shrugs his shoulders. ] Nice to meet you, Jo. Are you ready to uh--roll?

[huntersdaughter]

[She eyes him carefully.] Do you get motion-sickness? Because I can think of something that's not fun about it...

[She is teasing, of course, but honestly the thought of a couple coming here on a first date and finding out one of them gets motion sick - that could ruin dinner, for sure.]

I think I'm as ready as I'll ever be. [She nods, though, moving to join him as they head toward the building.] How long have you been with the Knights?
