You can not specify the default value on the fly.
However, you can populate an item in the 'when-create-record', 'pre-text-item', or 'when-validate-item' triggers.
I assume that you will populate date1 and date2 before the user gets to the 'listed' item. In the 'pre-text-item' trigger, if the item is empty then populate it with the desired value. If the user wishes to change it, they can.
