OKCINDR POST #2

Ever wanted to have CR with a character and wasn't sure how to get them to cross paths? Wanted a dating app so you can hook up with hot people? Wanted to just find friends because you're a lonely bastard?

With the update of the tablets and the apps, we now have a dating / friendship app called OKCINDR! Players can use it as they please for the two months that it's up -- just imagine that they're profiles to swipe right on and everything. The idea is to encourage CR that may be difficult to get with characters who may or may not be interested in events / posts / logs / other network posts.

So, on July 2nd, characters randomly look back at their tablets to see the following:

OKCINDR PROFILE RESET #2
PLEASE RESET PROFILE


This month, if players reset their profile, they will have a list of their choice of questions to answer:

- what is your favorite color, and why?
- describe your ideal date
- what's your favorite food, and are you able to cook it yourself?
- tell us about your very favorite hobby
- do you fear death?
- do you wake in the morning staring into the abyss, wondering if it stares back?
- what constitutes "life"? are you "alive?" how do you know if you are "living?"
- if you could be any animal, what would it be, and why?
- tell your favorite joke


Players, of course, are able to ignore this message. However, if a character wouldn't fill it out but a player would like to participate... the profile mysteriously resets itself. There may even be responses sent from Character A to Character B without Character A actually doing anything, if you'd like! This is a completely opt-in scenario! But for players who would like to participate fill out the post:

network profile
Character_Name
@username
ABOUT_ME




If you'd like to for shits and giggles, here's some notifications that may be used:

Name (@username) followed you




Name (@username) unfollowed you




Name (@username) blocked you




Have fun! Code credit.

Wait hold on you race on those things?! Someone I know from back home with one here told me you could ride on them but I never knew about that.

[She can't see it but he blinks wide at the offer before a sincere smile graces his lips at the prospect of trying his hand at this now.]

I mean if you're willing to teach me I'm definitely down to give it a shot, Tifa. Especially since I don't have my hoverboard to get around right now.

Yeah, it's a pretty big deal in some areas. A lot of riders race for the money prizes. And of course there's those who bet on the races and look to make a profit from that.

My friend Cloud participated in a race once. It was exciting to watch.


[Not that the Cloud here knows about that. Or the fact that it had been under duress and not for the cool experience.]

Consider me your instructor then. First we've tackled boats, now it's time for the Chocobos!

Not sure how I'd feel subjecting the Chocobos to that kind of treatment all for the sake of entertainment.

[Ekko would not want to see them harmed in anyway but so as long as it was all in good fun then perhaps there was no problem. A sincere smile of excitement graced his features as he types up the next bit of the message.]

You got it, teach. I can take you to the farm myself where they are located and introduce you to the red one that seemed to befriend me upon my arrival here in Aldrip. Here's hoping it won't be adverse to this opportunity.

I don't think it's as bad as it sounds. I mean, the treatment of the Chocobo ultimately comes down to their owner. But I think most of them are treated really well. They're meant to be active.

[There's always going to be a bad few in the bunch bringing the rest down.]

I would love that. And the opportunity to meet your new Chocobo friend.

I suppose that goes for any living creature, its often up to the owner if they should prosper or not.

Sounds like a plan. How about sometime later this week?

That works.
I'm pretty much...always free these days.
At least for now.


[Eventually she'll have to find something to do besides wandering around the city.]

Same here. Haven't really planned much just been kind of winging it.

I'll see you later this week. Until then take it easy, Tifa.
