OKCINDR POST #4

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

OKCINDR PROFILE RESET #4
PLEASE RESET PROFILE

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

What is forgiveness?
Can a criminal ever really be forgiven?
should you be forgiven?
Is a crime ever justified?
How do you justify your crime?
Can you forgive someone who's wronged you?

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:

that's fair

it is something to pass the time, innit? when you don't sleep there's a lot of time to pass

anyway, you want someone to play against, i've got you

[manifestering]

Not sleeping does not trouble me much
Does it trouble you
?

And
First I will need a board game

[incorrigibles]

not really, most of the time at least

just gets a bit boring if you've got nothing to do and no one else is awake

oh right

[manifestering]

I suppose being alone for so long did acclimate me to the emptiness of nighttime hours

I will find a board game

[Read: he will make Vash Dante someone find him a board game.]

[incorrigibles]

[ let him take like thirty seconds to be sad about his backstory again — ]

well, if you start feeling the emptiness, just let me know, i'm not gonna be asleep

whether it's for board games or whatever

i'm not great at alchemy but i do know some shit about mixing potions

[manifestering]

Considerate as always
Should I manifest some checkers you will be first to know

What kind of potions do you mix
?

[incorrigibles]

it's a deal

oh, uh

usually it's things like a potion to banish some kind of a supernatural entity

like a forest elemental

[manifestering]

[...After a somewhat lengthy pause:]

Pesticide with magic
?

[incorrigibles]

i

you know what

i don't really have an argument against that

but when the pest is supernatural then the pesticide has to be too, i guess

[manifestering]

I see the logic behind it
How do you make such a concoction
?

[incorrigibles]

with a magic potions kit

don't ask me the specifics i'm not the one in charge of that whole thing

i throw the stuff at the pest but that's where the involvement ends for me

[manifestering]

Oh
Like a chemistry set

[For Little Children, he doesn't say, but oh: how cute.]

Well if you were to describe some of them to me perhaps I could help you collect a new kit

[incorrigibles]

sort of? i think my partner got it from this witch in the magic quarter in london

haven't really felt the need to have it with me here, though, have i? so i might as well not trouble you with it

[manifestering]

Oh
When you brought it up I assumed you wanted to collaborate
No
?

[incorrigibles]

i mean

i guess? it's mostly that i haven't really done any of that much so you'd have to teach me

[ is he mostly doing this so he's finding a non-boardgame reason to keep him company so he's not alone? ... yes. ]

[manifestering]

I cannot promise I am a very good teacher
But I could show you some things

[Hush new ghost nephew, it's DIY chemistry set time.]

[incorrigibles]

[ ok uncle 🥺 ]

yeah, well, i don't care if you're a good teacher or not. i'm not asking because i want someone to teach me, i'm asking because i want you to teach me

so... thanks

[manifestering]

[Oh, and he's so... of course Octavian is biased, Charles is like him and that means something no matter how much he hates being what they are— so of course, Charles says he wants him to be his teacher and Octavian accepts that far more readily than he would from someone else.

Now he just has to learn to teach, oh boy.]

Considerate as always
My schedule is open
Let me know when

[incorrigibles]

you, too. and uh, i'll check mine. what do you think of chemistry lessons at night

we need to get a set first though, let me look for one

[manifestering]

At night would be fine

Simply let me know which nights
When you are ready

[incorrigibles]

right, brills

since we'll both be awake anyway i figured it's good

yeah! it's a promise
