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.

guess that makes sense. still sounds like a pain, not like i had to think about how my face was going to grow as i got older. just sort of happens, that and suddenly shooting concussive blasts out of my eyes.

yeah, it's just. frustrating. back home, i took kurt out to the mall the moment he arrived at the mansion, and everything went well. i hate that he doesn't feel that same kind of safety.


[Granted, Aldrip isn't that safe, but that's towards everyone. It's not just a mutant thing... excluding the Sentinels he briefly encountered.]
mightymorphin: (C; i'm not sure)

that's just the way the cookie crumbles. it seems like those of us with physical mutations are way more likely to be born with it. I bet Hank would have plenty to say about that one...

see, that's something you couldn't get away with on my world. I think you gotta be patient with him. you can't really make someone feel safe, but you can be there for him and make sure he knows you have his back.
laserguy: (look i know i'm an ass)

[He wonders if this means that he and Morph don't share the same timeline either.]

i know, i am trying to be patient and everything. i don't want to force kurt into anything he doesn't want to do. [...]

it just sucks.
mightymorphin: (C; maybe the world is broken)

[personal profile] mightymorphin 2024-07-10 09:46 pm (UTC)(link)
yeah, it does suck. but everyone being cool with mutants here will make it a lot easier.
laserguy: (big ol' visor)

[personal profile] laserguy 2024-07-11 06:18 pm (UTC)(link)
yeah, hopefully so.

[It's not like Scott was fully comfortable with himself and everything when he first got here. Maybe he forgot a little about that, since it's been over a year now.]

i told you that i was the first mutant here, right? glad that i set a shining path for us all.

[He's joking.]
mightymorphin: (C; and if you need somebody)

[personal profile] mightymorphin 2024-07-14 06:42 pm (UTC)(link)
hey, maybe you did! you're a pretty cool guy so don't sell yourself short.
laserguy: (watch me become co-dependent with jean)

[personal profile] laserguy 2024-07-15 03:11 pm (UTC)(link)
[Oh no Morph was supposed to tell him he's full of it or something, not actually agree with him!! Scott feels kind of embarrassed, glad that this is just text so that the older mutant doesn't seem him like this. He's definitely got a reputation to maintain around here.]

yeah yeah, definitely charmed everyone around me.

[Scott just won't mention how grumpy and pissy he was at the start.]
