OKCINDR POST #3
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:
This month, if players reset their profile, they will have a list of...questions...to answer:
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:
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.

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

(2/2)
I am attempting to relay that the words used are a standard salutation of my people. Evidently, it has determined my explanation should remain untranslated.
no subject
Real plausible
That's the second part. What's the first part?
[ she is, in fact, quite perceptive ]
no subject
[ a pause. okay, but seriously: ]
It is less a matter of if I "can" and more a matter of if I "should." It is very possible our universal translators will again stabilize and render the effort needless. It will take more time than the span of our conversation to develop a failsafe.
[ aka: he'll have to work on it once everything is back at baseline, because if he goes in now? chances are it will be useless in the next five minutes. ]
Are you familiar with the concept of lexical gaps or lacuna?
no subject
[ If he can text sarcasm, so can she! ]
I'm seriously not, and you love explaining things, so don't give me that
If you don't want to explain something just say so
Why are you and Jumpy like this
( 1/2. )
[ it isn't a question, because surely she already knows. use his dictionary! he put it together for you, toph! ]
"Jumpy"?
( 2/2 >> private channel. )
Some terms, no matter their meaning or their inherent translatability, are neither graspable nor accessible to those not immersed in the world from which they have come.
[ which doesn't really disprove her point, just adds more context to why. it isn't him just not wanting to, it's a cultural thing. for once, it isn't just him being a dodgy fuck! it's just... private. ]
Private
Jumpy's name is Vash. He has a really crazy fast heartbeat
Like you
He also tries to pretend he doesn't know what I'm asking
Like you
I don't need to understand your whole life story I'm just curious what's going on with you
We're friends
Private
[ spock,,, ]
Ah, yes. Him. We have conversed on three prior occasions.
While my heartrate is within normal limits for one of my species, I was not made aware he too was in possession of similar biological traits. Curious.
If it is as I suspect, perhaps he too has had limited exposure to your Human-centric conversational methods.
[ she can't hear it, but there's definitely some (very disguised, obviously) jest in that. some shred of seriousness, because he doesn't actually understand everything contrary to popular belief, you know! ]
It is not a matter of serious concern. It is only one that requires an appropriate framing, context.
I do not have the means with which to... Articulate it. [ a pause and then: ] Presently.
Re: Private
Like I'm going to care whatever he is
No he definitely knows how humans work because he keeps trying to take care of me and it's really REALLY annoying
Either tell me or don't tell me but don't act like it's impossible for me to understand or for you to explain it
