It was as if a sensory overload fried her brain and she couldn't do anything else aside from what she was told. At the center of two groups of males and females was a stunning and charismatic host. Someone who has been here before and knew what to expect. It was her job, after all, but still. The composure in this completely fabricated situation made Rhonda self-conscious about every move she made. So she made none.<br/><br/>There was a number of people that had come in after Rhonda, though many of them joined her on the same side of Caroline, which didn't take her attention away from the mass of boys already assembled. She was blatantly eyeing them, sizing each and every one of them up as a potential partner in this game. Only in the sense that if she was going to be attached to the hip with one of these boys, he was going to be a pleasure to look at. The problem, however, was that none of them were really a strain on the eyes.<br/><br/>Caroline looked to have come up with a solution for Rhonda in getting the show started. Literally. Having the fourteen of them together now, the hostess explained that it was boys to show interest first, girls to choose her not-yet-Significant-Other second, and it will be done in order of arrival. Rhonda eyed the other girls around her, trying to remember exactly who had come in before or after her. In a what seemed like a heartbeat, it was suddenly her turn to couple up.<br/><br/>Snapping back to reality [OOC:Ooh, there goes gravity], Rhonda caught on that there were now three couples standing in front of her and four single guys. The cushions that were once apart in those couples were now together. Cute. Thinking she was meant to, Rhonda bent down at the knee to grab her own plushy name and made her way over to Caroline. She smiled brightly toward the predominately male crowd with her cushion held in front of her, snuggled up between her arms and her taut tummy. Her heels clicked together again as she stood up straight, doing her darnedest to seem presentable as Caroline requested those that were interested in a real Asian-Canadian, please stand up. Please stand up. Please stand up. [OOC:That doesn't make sense but I couldn't resist TWO Eminem references in a single paragraph.]<br/><br/>Among the seven there, two had stepped forward. Rhonda had to make an effort not to arch a brow at the display or tilt her head to the side in a quizzical manner. She succeeded in the first, but there was no denying the half-tilt. Still, her smile persisted and, thinking on it for a moment, it made sense that the boys who were already happily coupled wouldn't want to rock their newly crafted boat by stepping over the edge for her. Okay, fine. Everyone gets this one.<br/><br/>Rhonda looked over both of her reality TV-show suitors as much as she could in the brief moment she had. Both were taller than her, which was something that she deeply preferred in men. It was never a deal breaker but it did warm her heart and her... soul when that was the case. Terry had an intensity to him that was on full display. It was hard to ignore when he had nothing on save for a pair of swim trunks. Logan was, first of all, more clothed than Terry. There was an intensity about him, too, though it was more of a smoldering one to Rhonda. The words wouldn't make any sense of spoken aloud, but in the moment, they made complete sense to her. The thought of picking from an existing couple or those that didn't fancy her did cross her mind, but that would just be plain awkward and an awful move on day one.<br/><br/>Peeking over at Caroline, who was looking back at her expectantly, Rhonda huffed out a sharp breath, then inhaled slowly before speaking. "Holy. You guys aren't making this very easy for anyone right off the bat, eh?" The Canadianism wasn't on purpose. "I think-" she turned back to the crowded side of people and exchanged glances at the two that had fancied her. There was a conscious effort to smile as warmly as she could at each of them individually. "I think I'll bunk up with Logan! There's something about flip flops that really get me."<br/><br/>Rhonda, Queen of the Misdirect, took her cue to stand by her would-be partner in this villa. Her steps got shorter the closer she got to him, right until she placed her cushion beside Logan's. Seeing him up close now, she sighed in subtle relief that he was just as attractive from a foot or so away as across the width of the pool. A dimpled smile was offered to the tall, dark haired man before she spun on a heel to take the space between his arm and his torso. He could easily give her a half-hug in this position and she could wrap an arm around his back as they stood, but she wasn't going to be the first one to make a move.<br/><br/>"I'm really glad you made it so easy to pick you," Rhonda said to Logan with the slightest nestle of the back of her head against him. "This is going to be fun!"
