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.

[but all girls are cute!!!]

I'm Caitlyn. I would say welcome to Aldrip, but that seems unfitting, considering this place is practically a prison.

[ Okay. Yes, this is a completely valid and true statement. ]

is it?
I mean, I guess my definition of 'prison' is like
way different
for example, prisons don't usually give people smartphones and knock-off Tinder to have fun with!!

Perhaps, but this isn't a summer vacation, either. We're bound by the limitations they put on us. Whether that's barriers that keep us from leaving the city, or just their ridiculous rules and crimes that they hold over us. They have control, we're just here for them to play with.

[it's a sad reality, but she's been here over a year now. she's so used to the fucked up patters of chaos that come in this place. two months ago was too easy, she has a bad feeling that this month won't be so pleasant.]

the limitations they put on us so far don't seem too bad, I guess
I'm used to things being way more lock-and-key
and that's not prison, just my life

as far as controlling forces go
these ones seem okay so far

If you're new here, then you probably haven't been here to experience the worst this place has to offer. It goes in a cycle, so I'm afraid we're probably looking at something worse, sooner rather than later.

Just wait until they alter your memories, force you to do something you wouldn't normally do, or even worse, hurt those that matter to you most.

I'm not saying it's all bad, here. It has it's moments, but don't let your guard down.

huh
okay, well!
good to know

I figured out robot overlord had to be keeping something up their sleeve
altering memories sounds wild though

It's very wild. But it's happened, multiple times. They changed the entire city, gave all of us new memories and new lives. Even after everything reverted back, it took a few months until my memory was right again.
hasitsthorns: dee woop doop doop wah wah (Dude)

[personal profile] hasitsthorns 2024-08-05 02:59 pm (UTC)(link)
woaahhh
I mean, I know that's bad but
also sounds kind of cool?
I'd like to see what other lives I might lead...

It isn't cool when you forget practically everyone you ever loved or cared about.

[Even if that time did bring her and Vi even closer together...but that was beside the point!! She didn't like being mindfucked like that. And now she has to live with the memories of her and Vi being engaged while knowing that can't really ever happen between them, in reality.]
hasitsthorns: You know it, baby (CHICKEN FINGIES!)

[personal profile] hasitsthorns 2024-08-12 03:05 pm (UTC)(link)
hmmm, well
no, that wouldn't be
but, I mean
just trying to look on the bright side of things, I guess, that that kind of experience is pretty unique!

[personal profile] bulleting 2024-08-18 02:31 am (UTC)(link)
If you like unique experiences, you'll certainly get plenty of those here.

[At least some things haven't been bad?? Definitely fall under the "unique" category.]
hasitsthorns: You know it, baby (CHICKEN FINGIES!)

[personal profile] hasitsthorns 2024-08-19 03:54 am (UTC)(link)
I'll look forward to it, then!!
The good ones, at least
