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.

I think that's why so many people are afraid of it.
Because it's inevitable.
But it can still be unexpected.

I like the way it looks. It's a color I enjoy wearing.
What about you?

Doesn't it make things less scary if it's inevitable? It's a certainty in life. Not many things are, I think.

It reminds me of the water.

It's scary because it's unavoidable. And even if you feel secure knowing that you will die 'some day', the fact that you can die before you expect it, or lose others that way, makes it scary.

I guess, if everyone could be certain they would be able to live out their life to old age, maybe it wouldn't be something we fear as much.

But that's just me trying to make sense of it. Everyone is different and has their own reasons.


[What a morbid topic.]

Do you enjoy swimming?

[ "Losing others," says Tifa and... That's true, losing others can certainly be terrifying. Enough of that though. He doesn't need to leave anymore concerning information out for her. ]

Not really. But I like looking at it, thinking about how big the world really is.

Me too.

I grew up in a small town surrounded by mountains so I didn't see the ocean until I was older. The first time I saw it I realized exactly how small we all are compared to...everything. Nature. The world.

It put things in perspective.

Yeah. Seeing how small we are makes things less scary to me.

Some people are scared of the ocean because it's so big though.
