Eh, I don't usually find a need for it. Speed datin's when you're in a big group and you spend time with other singles for a few minutes each. Questions are super simple and quick. Y'know, icebreaker type stuff like what you suggested.
Me? I've already got casual relationships, so I hook up with them when I have the time. And let me tell ya, nothin' beats spending time with a lovely lady after a long, hard day.
Oh, I see...that's not the type of thing I could do casually...
[ He's absolutely glad it was explained because otherwise he'd still be kind of making guesses.
Still, ah yes, this kind of talk. This was a flahback to his younger days in Cloud Recesses with his good friend, Wei Wuxian and you know...boys were boys.
Boys are still boys, because here was Huaisang, asking: ]
Spending time with lovely ladies, that is. But, out of curiosity, what do you think about some of the girls in our group? Any one of them catch your eye?
[ Like he hadn't spoken to all of them, but he had certainly seen them all by now. Of them, on looks only, Junko kind of looked the cutest. ]
[Sorry Huaisang, you keep setting yourself up for teasing...
But he lays off quickly enough, since it's apparently gossip time. He sighs and closes his eyes.]
Definitely Morgan fer sure. She's exactly the type of beautiful fairy ya hear about in fairytales. [Way more beautiful than the monsters in his world.] And that cold, aloof air she puts on only adds ta her charm.
[Hmmm, who else...]
Yuri's got that delicate princess angle that's always cute, an' Yor's... [He trails off for a moment. Oof.] Well, Yor's quite the enigma. I like mysterious women too. But she's off the market.
...And if I'm honest, Zola mighta turned into my favorite.
W-ha...no! I just want to one day meet my one and only...
[ Huaisang was such a helpless romantic...which probably wouldn't help with his case here. But he's listening to Raven list all the beauties with rapt attention. ]
I don't think I spoke to Morgan much, but she does look pretty.
Yuri's cute too. Though she can get scary, so I don't want to anger her, or ever get on her bad side...Junko looked cute too though I haven't spoken to her. And, well, Yor seemed rather mature, so I can get why you like her.
[ But he also knew why Yor was said to be off the market. Being married and a family would naturally make that a thing. ]
I never got the appeal for Zola, though. She...we kind of had a rocky first meeting. But, what about her made you think she could've been your favorite?
[You know what, good for Huaisang!! He's not gonna get any smart remarks from Raven on that, honestly.
As for Zola...]
How do I put it? Hmmm... She was fun. I didn't get ta know her as herself 'til the end, but I always got the sense that there was more to her. Like we mighta had a lot in common.
[ He was a little distracted saying that, so he sounded softer, more thoughtful, and lightly tapped his chin for a second as he thought about it. He recalled when Zola had said: "I couldn't just stop the act just because I was brought here."
That was probably it. Though it wasn't a sentence he found comfort in, he could see why someone who could relate to that would (maybe he was an outlier in that, however.) ]
I can get why someone would like somebody they had something in common with. It's actually kind of romantic. There's a lot of novels where it ends up that way.
