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

oh am i? hadn't noticed
but right, no, ghost clothes, remember? it'll be fine. not that you wouldn't look nice anyway
no subject
[Or smash a tablet to pieces, why not...]
you're so funny
and you'd look good in my fashionable jacket, QED, i was right the first time.
no subject
junpei. QED. really?
this is syzygy all over again
no subject
okay, people say QED on tv and stuff. it's normal.
no subject
right. what are you watching, fancy lawyer shows? can't believe you were getting on my case about the latin before
no subject
[Pretty and smart, wowza...]
i only know like two latin things and QED is one of them, soooo... that's still fewer fancy points.
it's my turn to drown myself at sea bye
yeah, terra, i remember
hmm you want fancy? right, a tick
[ give him a second though because he's a bit hazy on his ovid but they did read his works in school and he did memorise some parts, still has the book back home and his own translations written above the lines, and he's spent thirty-five years listening to latin on a regular basis, ]
non ego si biberes securae pocula lethes excidere haec credam pectore posse tuo
ha, there! can't believe i still remember that
[ give me the waters of lethe that numb the heart, if they exist, i will still not have the power to forget you.
(can the tablet actually do translations on written text? maybe. he's absolutely not taking that into account here.) ]
can't look this thread in the eye
you remembered that whole thing and i'm the dork? hmmm
[And he'd leave it at that, because it certainly looks like Latin—at first. He's only heard a handful of Latin phrases in his life, so he lingers over this one to see if he can stare at it long enough to remember if any one of these words is one he's heard before...
Mostly on principle, but he's also curious, and the tablets are having a glitchy old time of things, so it's after he scrolls up and down a few times really fast (to help him think, of course) that the text auto-translates itself, and oh! Cool! He can read it now, he is a geniuuuhhhhh—]
sooooo hey, what's that from?
closes my eyes
from his letters collection, had to translate some of it at school so i guess some of it just stuck with me
it talks about the river lethe, you know, in the underworld, and i guess it's the wrong mythology but i thought the sentiment- [ was incredibly accurate, which, right, he's not saying that ]
anyway, it was gonna be either one of the ovid quotes i can remember or a part of a spell and that didn't feel like a smart idea
[ please focus on the part about how he's being cautious and not writing parts of spells on the network and not on the fact there were, in fact, more latin phrases he could have used and thus chose this one entirely on purpose..... ]
no subject
It's probably fine. He'll remember. Like the quote, ha ha—]
right, yeah. don't blow up the network with a spell on my account.
pop quiz, who was he writing letters to, anyway?
no subject
shit, don't give me school flashbacks like this
but, uh, i don't really remember. friends and family, i reckon? his loved ones. pretty sure he was banished or something
no subject
you can't say no pop quizzes and then tell me he got banished, what the hell. banished for what? too many river metaphors?
no subject
anyway, you really haven't heard of him? was that a weird st. hil's thing, spending like half a year translating his stuff... we did some of the letters and then metamorphoses, you know, the mythology stuff, i got about halfway through orpheus and eurydice before-
you know
[ You Know. didn't have much of a reason to go back to translate more stuff after he'd died, so to this day the story of orpheus and eurydice remains unfinished. he'd had to be told it was a tragedy, which was kind of its own tragedy, really. ]
no subject
[He Knows.]
let me see if i can remember my american high school education..... us history. us history 2: even more of it. calculus. way too many shakespeare quizzes. flunking chemistry.
nope, can't find any latin in there.
no subject
you? flunk chemistry? you're kidding
aren't chemistry and physics supposed to like, go hand in hand or some shit
no subject
it's not that big a deal now, anyway.
no subject
[ or maybe he can, given that he had not-really-fun external motivation to do well, actually, never mind, ]
yeah, none of that shit actually matters much, does it
anyway
are you working today?
no subject
[Let's ignore how he dropped out mostly from the kidnapping trauma and general depression, it was definitely because he didn't like getting up at 7—]
i'm working right now, technically. don't tell my boss.
no subject
you did. same time you told me about the pi thing
[ don't look too closely at how his recollection of this is both immediate and immaculate, ]
best hope your boss doesn't see this, then. but if this is how busy you are
fancy some company?
no subject
right. so yeah. school isn't for me.
you want to come watch me stick toothpicks in sandwiches? sure.
no subject
[ and then, completely sincerely and equally unthinkingly, ]
well, it's seeing you, so
yeah
no subject
you see me all the time, dork. just come on, before the locals all suddenly crave a blt.
no subject
[ luckily for him, the only audience to this conversation and his silly, smitten smile is fish the fish who doesn't seem to care all that much. ]
right, see you in a tick
[ he could just mirror hop there, technically, but in case there are customers there... well, it's not too long a walk. ]
no subject
[Uhhhhhhh—] because of the sandwiches and stuff, you know.
[Great save by Junpei, handling this deftly as always. Either way, he is indeed just sticking toothpicks in sandwiches right now in an otherwise nearly-empty sandwich shop. One whole customer is sitting at one of the small tables, deeply engrossed in a sandwich and a book.
Junpei sticks an extra toothpick in a sandwich, deeply considering making a whole toothpick-based artwork, but he'd probably have to pay for it... It's a really slow day at work. If he keeps looking up at the door waiting for Charles to come in, no he doesn't. That's someone else, just like it's someone else who raises a hand to wave a little through the window even before Charles comes in the door. Hey.......]
no subject
his smile is terribly bright when he meets junpei's eyes through the window, and he forgoes waving back in favour of actually making it to the door a bit faster, still, pushing it open and making a beeline for the counter. ]
Hey, [ he says, eyes crinkling at the corners, just taking a second or two to stand there and smile at junpei like he's forgotten about the rest of the world — until he remembers he's not supposed to be doing that and looks around with a light laugh. ] Wow, you weren't kidding, it's proper slow, innit?
