Going Once! Going Twice! Sold!
"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the first annual Maria Stark Foundation Charity Auction. I'm Alison Blaire and your host for tonight's festivities. Prepare yourselves for a night of fun to help a worthy cause. In just a few minutes many very handsome men will be brought out one by one for your chance to win a date with one of them.

Before we begin I would like to bring out Her Imperial Highness Anya Stark. Miss Stark helped arranged tonight's event and will give you a little more information on the charity organization tonight's proceeds will help."

Anya walked out on stage and smiled. "Thank you, Ms. Blaire. All of the proceeds from tonight's event will go directly to Doctors Without Borders or Médecins Sans Frontières. This organization was created in 1971 in France to benefit the citizens of the world. The organization is committed to bringing quality medical care to people caught in crisis regardless of race, religion, or political affiliation all across the globe. MSF operates independently of any political, military, or religious agendas.

I'm happy to announce on behalf of the Maria Stark Foundation, that all money collected here tonight will be matched dollar for dollar by the Maria Stark Foundation."

"Thank you Miss Stark and that is a very generous offer by the Maria Stark Foundation. Now it's time to begin. So open those wallets and let's bring out our first man." Anya left the stage and went to take her seat.

"First we have the son of Captain America Steve Rogers and Natasha Romanoff. James Romanov-Rogers is currently an Avenger and has recently moved to Seattle to lead the West Coast Avengers."

"Let's start the bidding at a hundred dollars."

	Mina smiled at that. Corey didn't have it in him, she knew, to be fresh. "Same thing," she said, indicating the dress she'd worn. "Well, minus the shoes. Got my toed-boots on there. But otherwise the only hologram's the me-parts." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Mina'e eyes widened just a touch. "Classy," she said, and meant it. "Sounds like fun." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Hey, it's a special occasion and all." And off they go. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Re: Corey kidfuzzy 2011-02-19 12:33 am UTC (link)
	It is, Mina realizes, probably the second or third date she's ever actually been on. "Hey, Corey?" she says. "I know I "bought" you and all... but... thanks." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Re: Corey sandcastlegod 2011-02-19 12:41 am UTC (link)
	"You're more than welcome." He smiled. "Your dad totally spotted you some of the cash, huh? I know he's a big medical-charity fan." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Re: Corey kidfuzzy 2011-02-19 02:11 am UTC (link)
	"Dad and Mom actually," she replied, blushing a little, which was translated by the image inducer. "I kinda didn't tell either one I'd already asked the other." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Ooh, tricksy. High three!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Re: Corey kidfuzzy 2011-02-19 02:49 am UTC (link)
	Mina giggled and gave Corey the requested high-three. "I do have my moments." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Re: Corey sandcastlegod 2011-02-19 02:54 am UTC (link)
	And it's not too long before they're stepping, in both their minor finery, into the elegance of the Starlight Lounge. "So, Mina, I can't help but notice something." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Re: Corey kidfuzzy 2011-02-19 03:56 am UTC (link)
	She gives him a curious look. "What's that, Corey?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"The waitress on the left is making you look a little overdressed." Corey smiled as he nodded just slightly towards a blonde waitress with green scales. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Re: Corey kidfuzzy 2011-02-19 05:00 am UTC (link)
	Mina looks where Corey was and a small smile crept over her face. She reaches down and turns off her image inducer. "Heh. Guess you were right." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Re: Corey sandcastlegod 2011-02-19 05:07 am UTC (link)
	"There. Much better." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Re: Corey kidfuzzy 2011-02-19 10:43 pm UTC (link)
	Mina smiles. "Wow," she manages. "Don't get to do this, like, ever." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Re: Corey sandcastlegod 2011-02-19 10:50 pm UTC (link)
	Corey takes her arm as they head to their table. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Re: Corey kidfuzzy 2011-02-20 01:12 am UTC (link)
	Her first step's a little hesitant--Mina's not at all used to being out and about without her imagine inducer on--but she picks up firmness in her step. "I've got to start doing this more." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I've seen pics of her, I think," Mina said. "She is kinda pretty." She considered. "Gretchen and TJ have both said before they got by just fine without hiding. Makes me wonder sometimes if our universe isn't just that much more messed up." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Re: Corey sandcastlegod 2011-02-20 03:50 am UTC (link)
	Corey thinks for a moment, then shrugs. "Maybe so. The world can be a rotten place sometimes." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Re: Corey kidfuzzy 2011-02-20 04:38 am UTC (link)
	"Hard to say," Mina agrees. "But it's a pretty good one too, most of the time." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
