OKCINDR POST #3

[expiationmods]

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 September 3rd, characters randomly look back at their tablets to see the following:

OKCINDR PROFILE RESET #3
PLEASE RESET PROFILE

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

What do you look for in a "relationship?"
Do you see through time?
When you stare into the void, is it the correct universe's infinite abyss that stares back?
Please define: existential crisis
How do you justify the color pink?
Does the data not corrupt exquisitely
Do do do does does does ththth e
Does the
Does the
Dies
data
done one one zero one

Additionally, this month, misfires on the meme are much more likely, whether it's a character who wouldn't post their own profile, or comments on other top levels.

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:

Q&A

[mightymorphin]

What do you look for in a "relationship?" I want a friend AND a lover, otherwise what's the point?
Do you see through time? thankfully no!
When you stare into the void, is it the correct universe's infinite abyss that stares back? at this point I have no idea.
Please define: existential crisis for me it's that moment when you're up at 3 AM and everything is dead quiet and your mind keeps chasing itself in circles.
How do you justify the color pink? what's to justify? pink is a great color. are you going to tell flowers they can't be pink, huh?
Does the data not corrupt exquisitely sorry computer, your exquisite and mine aren't the same.

[hasitsthorns]

I usually quiet those thoughts with the loud satisfying crunch of Doritos

[mightymorphin]

do they even have Doritos here??

I am a fan of junk food but I usually just turn on the TV for a distraction.

[hasitsthorns]

they probably have some weird off-brand junk that's LIKE Doritos
Boritos? Noritos? hm

TV is also good!
though I prefer trashy daytime TV

[mightymorphin]

the store brands are just never the same....

daytime TV isn't bad! I don't usually try to watch but it has a way of sucking me in when there's so much drama.

[hasitsthorns]

right!!
I mean, that's pretty much WHY I watch it
I know a lot of it is staged or whatever but man sometimes
you just need to watch two ladies arguing over hairstyles or something silly like that

un: shades

[laserguy]

[so he learned about rogue's love life last time...]

so, got any feelings for anyone back home?

[mightymorphin]

uh, why? what brought this on?

[laserguy]

well you know about the scott in your timeline, right? and i'm guessing he's with jean.

and you know about kotone and me.

it's only fair.

[mightymorphin]

so you know about Jean, huh? and it's hard not to notice when you and Kotone are together! you could give someone cavities.

I wasn't seeing anyone back home. and it's probably a good thing that I didn't leave anyone behind that would miss me like that.

[laserguy]

it feels like jean is the person i normally end up with. you're not proving me wrong.

so. if i asked rogue, she'd still give me the same answer.

[mightymorphin]

where I'm from you're married to Jean, so that's that. and you're saying it happens in other timelines too?

I don't see why she wouldn't.

[laserguy]

yeah. or at least i'm with her in some way, like dating. boyfriend and girlfriend.

[Like some sort of destiny to always be with her, but did things change when he arrived here? Although, when he eventually goes home, maybe he will end up being with Jean. He's not sure if he really wants that, but that's a can of worms he doesn't want to explore.

Like geez, he's supposed to be teasing Morph not thinking about hard stuff!!]

but really? boring.

[entreats]

You're taking this surprisingly seriously.

[ .. granted, it's not like Ange has that strong of an impression of them yet, but Morph did seem a little more serious when they spoke before! Not the kind of person to just sit down and fill out a bunch of obviously nonsense glitchy questions. ]

[mightymorphin]

it's a good way for us to get to know each other, isn't it?

[entreats]

Do you think that sort of thing is important in a place like this?

Getting to know each other?

[mightymorphin]

well sure. even if you aren't out to make friends, knowing what the other Chosen are like is a good idea in case we need to team up or if someone's in trouble.

[entreats]

[ ... ]

You know, I'm learning a lot about you today.

I didn't know you were this much of the helpful type, for one. Though I guess that isn't necessarily a bad thing.

[mightymorphin]

I try to be! it's sorta part of the job description.

[homeostatic]

Any bad movie that's a personal favorite?

[mightymorphin]

it's gotta be Samurai Cop! I don't think it was intended to be a comedy but it's a hilarious watch anyway.

[homeostatic]

Never seen it. Sounds pretty awful, with a name like that.

[mightymorphin]

it's a masterpiece of being awful. I don't know if we can find it here, but it's definitely worth a watch.

[homeostatic]

Well, if you find it, let me know. I'll bring the beer.
