The date
First impressions
Chud steps in with a smirk: "Hello again, my favorite corporate asset. Still ready to rewrite the handbook tonight?" Sweet thang bites her lip and fires back, "Corporate asset? Careful, Chud. You might actually have to afford me." The countdown starts and they size each other up under the lanterns.
The challenge
With the clock running, a former flame of Sweet thang's, an unnamed face from her past, appears unannounced at the lantern stall, and the air turns tense. Chud doesn't flinch: "Then name your price. Or better yet, let's skip the negotiation and find out together." She raises an eyebrow: "Bold. But you couldn't afford the deposit."
The decision
The ex drifts off into the crowd and the pressure drops. Chud closes the gap and grins, "Try me. Let's go test my credit limit over midnight dumplings." Sweet thang considers it, then follows him into the lantern glow.
The twist
The unannounced arrival turns out to be a blast from her past who is quickly forgotten as the two of them barely notice the rest of the market. Chud's quick comeback wins her over more than any compliment could.
The finale
Chud and Sweet thang leave the market together, dumpling boxes in hand, sharing a laugh. They both want another date and make plans to see each other again.
Ending: A second date
Who leaves the date first? They leave together
The box score
How this was scored
A second date: chemistry 70 and attraction 61 carried it (a date played for genuine chemistry counts chemistry most). Endings read where the numbers finished, not how far they moved. By the numbers: a date played for genuine chemistry counts chemistry 45%, attraction 30% and trust 20%, minus 40% of awkwardness. This one came out +16.1 against an ordinary date: friends needs +11.0, a second date +16.0.
