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.

[.........wow.

Well, guess he doesn't have to worry about her being weirded out by mutants or anything. Granted, she just finished telling him about ghosts and stuff, so it's not surprising that she's just taking all of this in without really batting an eye. Guess that's nice in its own weird way.

That's how most people have reacted to him so far.]


more like the first one? it really has nothing to do with curses or my ancestor making a bad deal with some demon or shit. i mean, that would suck, because it skipped my parents.

we're mostly just born with a unique ability. mine manifested almost a year ago while I was attending school. just suddenly, i was blasting things with my eyes.

How do you see???

[LOOK. They can spiral back to the other bits, this needs to be addressed first.]

special glasses.

to make things simple, it stops my powers from destroying everything in front of me.


[Something about the ruby quartz reflecting his optic blasts... Professor McCoy could probably explain it better than him. He just knows that the material is really important. Back then, he interrupted the older mutant because he was just excited at the idea of being able to see again. He slightly regrets it now, but at least he knows the important stuff still.]

Huh.

[Much to consider.]

Convenient you've got something that helps with the 'blasting everything you look at' problem. Sounds like it's rough if anything ever happens to your glasses but I'm sure you know what to do about situations like that.
laserguy: (yeah sure man)

[personal profile] laserguy 2024-08-05 07:22 pm (UTC)(link)
yeah.

i'm pretty good at closing my eyes.

I don't want to imagine what would happen if you lost your glasses and had to wait for someone to make you a new pair. Someone would have to follow you around and warn you which way you're pointing if you feel like you need to blink.

[he definitely remembers those initial days back home, where he had to wear a cloth over his eyes so that he didn't accidentally open them. alex had to guide him everywhere and... it wasn't fun. but it was also a reminder that his brother really does care about him.]

i got a friend helping me out with that. still incomplete from what i know, but figured that it's best to have a spare in the works.
