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:

video; un: kurama [private]

[sinningtree]

[It doesn't take long for Kurama to find himself here after the trail of evidence (including reading way too much of what Yusuke had been getting up to on the network recently.) Some of which was a conversation for another day. Or maybe never.]

What on earth have you done?

[avitus]

[Oh shit.]

Okay listen before you get mad. We didn't mean to blow it up, we just wanted to break in. But we, uh, ... might've blasted the walls a bit too hard...

[...]

But how were we supposed to know the walls'd be so flimsy when the doors and windows wouldn't budge??

[sinningtree]

[Before you get mad, he says. Yusuke, he already looks mad.]

Why didn't you ask for help instead of being so reckless-?

[He knows why. He'd just thought maybe. Maybe he's learned a little. To be fair, the timeline thing hasn't exactly sunk in yet, because he's so caught up in the Acts Of Terrorism that could get everyone here in trouble. He's going to have to sit on that info for a bit for it to sink in fully. Or ask directly what that message he saw meant, because it makes no sense from where he's standing. Details.

For now:]

Do you truly believe no one here has tried that before?

[avitus]

I mean, it was kind of a spur-of-the-moment thing!

[He has learned A Little. He had an entire thought about traps, even! Unfortunately a little is still not very much.]

You were out and Hiei was napping at the time, and he'd toast my ass if I got Yukina involved...

[But again, he only really thought about it a little.]

Things weren't falling apart before, though. It seemed like a good time to try it and see if we could find some answers about what was going on.

[sinningtree]

[when it fully sinks in how young Yusuke actually is here, he's going to feel very stupid for being surprised at all. Ignoring Yusuke’s excuses not to loop him in on this:]

Did you at least uncover anything useful?

[If you say a park...]

[avitus]

Well....

[Nothing good ever starts with that word, huh.]

It kiiind of crumbled before we could get inside. But there was a weird white void coming from the rubble? And then it turned into a park and nobody seemed to have ever heard of the council or Jerry.

[sinningtree]

[Yusuke you can't just CASUALLY DROP white void into the conversation like that. Give him... several minutes. He's thinking, at least once he gets past the initial shock. Kurama's response comes much calmer, when he does speak, finally.]

It seems you may have recalibrated the settings pertaining to what was once City Hall.

[avitus]

[Is it really that alarming, though!! They're having wild catastrophic glitches all the time, how's this one that different...

Yusuke does wait out whatever crisis Kurama is having internally about it, though, looking increasingly a little impatient and uncomfortable, as though he's wondering if he really said something that weird, or if he's still mad about his answer seeking having in fact gone Terribly Wrong, and then ... the actual comment is weirdly underwhelming, for the buildup?

Yusuke himself is quiet a moment, uncertain, before he huffs loudly, free hand on his hip as he scowls into his tablet.]

Too bad I didn't hit the setting for "spit us the fuck out", huh.

[sinningtree]

[well, for one that wasn't a glitch!]

But you did something, and whatever Territory we are currently trapped in responded. I think, perhaps, you did find a clue. Just not one you could have recognized.

[Or done anything useful with.]
