[Verso listens for a little bit, taking into account everyone’s thoughts for their picks. Most are strategic and well thought-out, and he should do his best to put in the same effort, beyond the simple reasoning of “I like their company.”]
I’ve wondered if my match is someone who enjoys music… I guess that’s a superficial reason on the surface, just sharing an interest, but—
[He pauses.]
It wasn’t exactly a love of mine that was allowed to flourish… as much as I’d have liked in my family. So matching me with a musician or performer for the sake of a “fulfilling” storyline might make for good viewing.
In which case, it would make sense for me to pick Nico, Luka, or Yingying.
A stifled love of music finally getting a chance to express itself, huh...
You're right, that it would suit a few people in a group like this. I've heard it said by a few people now that you and Nico seem to get along well, too.
[He might feel Some Kinda Way about it, but it makes sense. It is a good starting point, and maybe it lends into a deeper compatibility because of it?
Or maybe the producers are just blowing smoke out of their asses. It’s so hard to tell.]
I’ve gotten along with all three, but Nico’s more open. So I’d say that’s right, we do get on pretty well. [Huffs.] Luka and Yingying are still a mystery to me, but that doesn’t mean they can’t be my matches either.
[Where one wears his heart on his sleeve, the other two still have much to unravel under the surface — similar to him.]
Ha, I hope I’ve left a good impression on all three. If I don’t hear any of them screaming objections at me between now and then, then I’ll take it as a good sign.
A shared interest is hardly a superficial reason, Mr. Verso.
[ A lot of performers in this round, hm? Charming. ]
It can be a truer reflection of one's wants than their profession in some ways. It isn't uncommon for people to be pushed into jobs that go against their wishes, due to various circumstances. In that regard, your choices seem wise.
[ But after a brief pause ... a little more seriously: ]
For this round, that is. I don't think you'd need to worry in general. Given your charms, it feels like finding your match would be a matter of 'how,' not 'if.'
Ha, something tells me you’re giving me more credit than due, but I’m going to hope you’re right. My perfect match is definitely fated to fall for this rugged visage.
[He sure hopes turning up the charm works in his favor.]
If nothing else, this round should provide us with some much-needed information. Since most of us are taking a more strategic approach -- if we fail to find many matches [ he is not going to say 'blackout' out loud in case that'd jinx them ] then it would be a sign we're going about it the wrong way, yes? Perhaps a sign that we should, ah, what was it Mr. Nico said ... follow our hearts, instead.
[ Truly, they're working off of next to nothing in this first week, when it comes to data. A small sigh. ]
... it's difficult. I've had to reconsider my options several times while hearing what others have on their mind. Though, well. I do have somewhat of a plan forming.

[ Beaming. ]
I think any of them would work out well with you, and you already get along with them, which means a relatively peaceful choice.
[ She hopes. ]

I’m glad you think there’s some merit to the idea. I figure why not try, and if it doesn’t work out, then… I’m screwed!

A surprise reveal on the day will be more entertaining, don't you think? Hahaha.
