[OPEN]
Where: All over Konoha village.
When: From May 12th to May 24th (the day before the auction)
Notes: Open to anyone in Konoha during that time-frame.
It didn't take much for the Hokage to convince Gai to participate in the upcoming auctions. A few words about how Obito was joining, how it was good for the village, how Kakashi should do it too...and Gai was sold on the plan. Fundraising for the exams, where promising young ninja would show off their skills? Definitely a worthy cause. Besides, it would help to build bonds between the ninja and their comrades or the villagers! And perhaps even make a love connection or two! Ah, blossoming springtime affections!
Gai was excited! For his own part, he was only concerned with making as much money for the village with his own sale as possible, not with romance. His goal was to make more than Kakashi! Perhaps even more than the Hokage himself! He hadn't even given much thought to the concept of being bought. After all, ninja were sold like commodities daily, every time the village leased them out as soldiers/bodyguards/assassins for missions. Whatever his buyer was interested in, it was worth the funds for the village coffers.
But one man alone could probably not fund the entire exam, so Gai was running around the village (sometimes on his hands), enjoying the warm weather and enthusiastically trying to drum up interest in the upcoming event.
Buyers and potential participants would all get an earful on why they should be sure to attend--and help out with!--the auction!

May 17th, they need to actually MEET before the bidding now.
It was a day when Adela was working the front of the forge, frowning at the the wild blue beast as he ran by. It seemed that she wasn't going to be left alone by him though, and she glanced briefly at her other customers before her attention was on him.
"Can I help you?" She wasn't feeling up to being polite as she normally would to a customer in the shop part of their home, and considering that people generally came for the quality of their metalworks it generally wasn't a problem if she was less than exemplary once in a while. She'd see what he wanted and get him to go...
