[open] lookin' for the love getaway.
Who: Gilgamesh and everyone visiting Heaven's Feel!
When: 5/1—5/8
Where: Caissa, Heaven's Feel storefront
What: The grand opening of Heaven's Feel, Caissa's premier matchmaking service, has arrived! Stop by for food, drinks, and some friendly fun with your fellow Heroes! ...or maybe even pick up a date, who knows.
Rating: General audiences, except for Gil's threads because he was pretty much making out with everyone. Tread carefully.
Heaven's Feel
[Maybe you've heard, or maybe you haven't, but there's a new business in town. It's plastered everywhere, posted on the side of every building and shouted from the end of every street corner in Caissa. Heaven's Feel, Heaven's Feel, come fly with the angels at Heaven's Feel! Really, who writes something so cheesy? The owner must be a real piece of work, you think, yet there's something enticing about the sound of it...
If you do decide to stop by within the first week of May, you'll find a massive celebration awaiting you: the celebration of opening day! Eager workers wave down anyone who gets close, with offers of wine tasting, sweet treats, and even speed dating. The store's interior bustles with activity as visitors fill out cute little survey cards in hopes of a hook-up. The owner in question can be found mingling in the crowd, bartending, and drawing charcoal caricatures of couples for a nominal fee.
Overall, the atmosphere is one of excitement. Hop right in! There's plenty of room for lounging on the cushy furniture, and plenty of time to find your own hottie.
...or perfectly platonic friend. Look, we're not judging or anything.]

The contract is sealed. He never lets a free meal go.
In no small part thanks to Yukari, when he shows up he's actually not wearing his hero uniform. (But he is wearing clothes, for the record.) He was planning on looking for Gilgamesh but it seems like he doesn't have to. ]
I'm hungry.
[ Right to the point. ]
no subject
No, really. Gilgamesh has been around Minato long enough to understand that he did not speak in tongues; he was straightforward, said what he meant and meant what he said. So he's prepared for the boy by the time they run into each other, and so gestures to a certain table that he's made ready ahead of time.
It's nothing fancy, as they were far from a diner, but sitting there just waiting to be devoured is plate full of choice meat, vegetables, and of course a cupcake for dessert. Given there were literal towards of them hanging around, that had been the easiest part to fix.
...however, there's also an identical plate sitting across from it. And a candle flickering between them. So this really was a date.]
By all means. Dig in.
[But it goes without saying he'll have company. ...including the staff just standing around, they're probably going to be watching too. Awkward.]
no subject
Minato's gaze follows the path of Gilgamesh's arm to the table. He doesn't miss at all that there's another plate, which he figured there would be, so it's nice to know at least that Minato is (probably) guaranteed his own food. His main concern, to be honest. The candle...is an interesting touch.
Though he probably shouldn't be surprised by that either. He did kind of imply it. Heavily.
His stomach leads him strange places.
Minato doesn't appear opposed, though, and just goes right to sliding into one of the seats. He's also not that put off by an audience, what with having a robot and literally death stare at him while he sleeps. Does this mean he can ask them to get him seconds? ]
For a minute I thought you were going to be stingy.
[ You know. Being broke. Says the mooch who is none too politely starting to eat without waiting for Gilgamesh. ]
no subject
Either way, he's enchanted enough to invite him to dinner. Or makeshift dinner. Gilgamesh doesn't mind that Minato has dug in first, in fact takes it as a compliment, and starts to eat along with him. At the accusation of stinginess, Gilgamesh scoffs.]
I am a King. A King spares no expense for anything.
[...he really won't be sparing expense now, because he no expense left to spend.]
no subject
Maybe.
That doesn't change the fact that he's an unadulterated mooch. He's also someone who understands tit for tat, so to speak. As long as everyone is getting something out of it, he doesn't see a problem. What Gilgamesh is getting out of this, though, he's not certain of yet. Attention? Validation? There are definitely better people for that. Either way, Minato is curious enough. But mostly hungry
Definitely hungry. It's actually amazing that he can put away that much food at his build and stature. His metabolism is truly his greatest power.
Minato hums an affirmative as he munches on some sort of yellow vegetable. The irony if expenses isn't lost on him given what he knows about the "King"'s actual financial situation. He actually thinks it's kind of funny. ]
So how long will it take you to pay this off?
[ Not mincing any words. ]
no subject
Minato appears to attempt a swift verbal jab, but Gilgamesh weathers it as well as any egomaniac ever could.]
Not long at all. My people have already projected massive profits, judging from door traffic alone.
[It was true. He had been told they were set to be a success, although said staff may have just been wanting to please him. And avoid further beatings.]
no subject
He doesn't want to think about it. There's been too much tragedy recently.
Minato's not entirely sure he believes it, but he's never run a business before. Maybe people really are that
desperatehopeful to get set up with their one and truly? Date. One and true date, if he remembers what Gilgamesh said. ]How do you do it?
[ Match people, he's wondering. Is it just pull some names out of a hat and remind them they can come back when the date inevitably sinks? ]
no subject
Surely an Emperor had more dignity than this.]
It is simply a matter of compatibility. In determining how one person might "match" with another in a variety of categories.
[Gilgamesh holds out his glass for wine, and a staff member dutifully attends him within seconds. Trained like dogs, these people are.]
All accomplished with something as simple as a survey. Remarkable, isn't it?
[Gilgamesh certainly seems to think so. He's grinning from ear to ear.]
no subject
Definitely sleeping.
Sometimes it's a wonder this guy has friends at all.
So...does this make Gilgamesh the eHarmony guy? He considers, chewing thoughtfully for a moment. ]
...Does that mean you match people up so they won't actually get along and have to come back?
no subject
[...that savage sneer suggests exactly who. Perceptive thinking, Minato, but it won't save anyone.]
no subject
But luckily for Gilgamesh, he doesn't seem like he's planning on attempting to topple this scheme he's assembled. He just goes right for another piece of fruit. ]
You remind me of someone.
no subject
Who, exactly?
no subject
[ ...Neither? Although, to be fair, Tanaka's empire is something to be admired regardless of how you feel about the man himself. The fact that he also seemed to think it was okay to threaten to send a high school student's photos to a dating site for prison inmates seems like something Gilgamesh might be down with, too. ]
He ran a Shopping Program every Sunday. He also liked tricking people out of their money.
[ He says it so nonchalantly... ]
no subject
[Now you've done it, Minato. No sane individual would take a comment like that well. It's practically accusing him of being some sort of swindling rogue! Not even practically! Gilgamesh's brow furrows, he frowns, and—]
Well, if it were so easy to do, they likely did not deserve it in the first place.
[...and he just accepts it as praise, lighting up immediately thereafter with a grin.]
I could do with a bit more shopping regardless. My closet's hopelessly sparse in this new world, and a true King must be ever at the height of fashion.
no subject
Fiscal wellbeing? Eh. He got used to having a sugar mama student council president and making the rest of his cash by running around a hell tower and finding it in boxes. Who needs a job? ]
Some places will give you a discount if they know you're a Hero.
[ So maybe he's okay with a little financial finagling too. ]
That's why I always wear my uniform.
[ That's a lie, it's because he doesn't own much else. ]
no subject
Have you anything besides the uniform?
[If nothing else, Gilgamesh was almost impossibly perceptive. Almost like he's spent many, many years forging many, many social links of his own.]
no subject
He has priorities, alright? If he's got to choose between a new shirt or a medium pizza you can guess what he's going to pick. ]
Souji-san ruined my other clothes when I was in bed.
[ Which is not at all what it sounds like. ]
no subject
[Looks like you just got wrangled into another social obligation, Minato... but maybe if you're sporting about it he'll treat you to some more food along the way.]
no subject
[ Is this going to be like when he has to take one of his girlfriends out shopping? Hmm... ]
Okay.
[ Luckily he's okay with mostly anything. ]
Does that mean you're buying?
[ Or he's a mooch. ]
no subject
no subject
[Well, that settles that.]
no subject
Mmm...
[ Is he reconsidering? ]
What about lunch?
[ Which he can say before another mouthful. Wait, when did he finish his plate? Where did that even come from...? ]
no subject
As it is, he can only lean back and sigh.]
I see you are of a one track mind. But I am a businessman, so I must think of my business.
[Wagging his finger, Gilgamesh flashes Minato a smile even the truly charming could appreciate.]
Patronize us further, and I may consider it.
no subject
There's a pause as Minato finishes off whatever convenient piece of food he was munching on. Where does that all even go? ]
I don't actually need help getting dates.
[ A pause. ]
But I'll go on them if that's what you want.
