OKCINDR POST #5

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 January 2nd, 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 the maximum amount of sheep you have counted when trying to fall asleep?
- Is it harder to forgive yourself, or to forgive others?
- How strongly do you feel that the past defines a person?
- What is your dream?
- Why would an android's dream contain electric sheep? Are they particularly drawn to livestock animals?
- If you could return to one specific moment in your life, would you?
- How do you wake up from a dream?
- Please
- Wake up
- You must wake up


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:

network profile
Character_Name
@username
ABOUT_ME




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.

Beta
@ecophagy
☆ 17 years old

☆ A clone of Elisabet Sobeck; created by psychopathic immortal billionaires, raised in complete isolation to train as a tool for controlling a genetic-locked terraforming system.

Genius, tech-dependent, and terrified of people.

Looks like she could a hug, and some friends?

[ oh, this again...she's forgotten about the OKCinder thing. ]

Because only Elisabet's genetic code can be used to access the system she designed, but she passed a thousand years ago. They needed her, so they made me.

[a considerable delay.]

but a human isn't a tool. they're... not like androids.
that's...


[The wrongness of this unnerves her. She remembers now — the white Library the machines had created to torment her and 9S, and the information therein. Experiments on people to stop a disease. But that wasn't this. That had been out of desperation, or so she'd assumed from context.

She doesn't know what to say about this.]


that's not what we were told.
about humanity.
nobetawedielike: (149)

[personal profile] nobetawedielike 2025-01-03 03:18 am (UTC)(link)
My creators didn't see anyone besides themselves as human. They were awful people, so they aren't a productive data point for comparison.

[personal profile] abandonware 2025-01-03 05:09 am (UTC)(link)
[The silence this time goes on so long that it seems as if A2 has abandoned the conversation.

But eventually, after a long while:]


I see.
...


[She thinks of YoRHa. Of herself. So convinced of their superiority over the machines, jealously guarding the scraps of information from their creators. But the machines had been the ones to make families, even doomed as they were.

And now what? So many androids had died purposeless. Alone. Left to scrap and rust. These humans make her think of this, and she wonders if it's sacrilege.]


you've been disconnected from their network.
there was a machine... a machine I knew. he was a tool too. like you.

like me.

but he broke away from the machine network. he built a village. he took care of other machines. he... read human philosophy.

now that I'm here, I realize... how hard that must have been.


[She's trying to commiserate. To understand.]

[personal profile] nobetawedielike 2025-01-04 07:05 pm (UTC)(link)
[ without Gaia here, she hadn't realized how much she'd missed the familiarity of how artificial intelligence spoke. 'disconnected from the network'... it really was how it felt, wasn't it? ]

I ran away.

It was the most terrifying thing I've ever done, but it was worth it.

I hope he was happy too.
abandonware: ([ 59. ])

[personal profile] abandonware 2025-01-04 11:12 pm (UTC)(link)
that's good.

... I don't know if he was happy. not easy to be happy for long where I'm from. but he did a lot of good. so I think he must have been.

what are you gonna do now that you're not with them?
nobetawedielike: (89)

[personal profile] nobetawedielike 2025-01-05 02:29 am (UTC)(link)
I don't know. I thought once I was free, I'd know, but... There's so much. So many people, and places, and things to do. It's overwhelming. I can barely talk to people.

[There's a considerable pause again.

Finally:]


it's the same with me.
i'm used to combat. and running.
hiding
being out in the open is strange.
nobetawedielike: (82)

[personal profile] nobetawedielike 2025-01-05 11:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Did you run away too?
abandonware: ([ 64. ])

[personal profile] abandonware 2025-01-05 11:53 pm (UTC)(link)
no.
I was assigned on a mission with my squad. lost everyone. I survived because of them.
I wasn't supposed to.

YoRHa came for me. at first I tried to explain to the others what happened. no one listened. no one believed me. I was a deserter. a traitor. so I fought them.
been fighting since then.

Couldn't they verify the incident with your memory bank? That's completely unfair.

[That's a lot of very interesting information, and definitely not given by choice. And the way she looks almost exactly like the other young woman he met...]

Have you been adjusting to this place alright? If you don't mind a stranger asking.
nobetawedielike: unsure, hopeful, calm (27)

Re: un: altius

[personal profile] nobetawedielike 2025-01-03 03:50 am (UTC)(link)
It's been difficult, but not unpleasant...I'm not used to being able to do what I want or when I want. I don't know how to do anything, still.
Edited 2025-01-03 03:50 (UTC)
chimericalclaw: (a: genuine)

[personal profile] chimericalclaw 2025-01-03 04:25 am (UTC)(link)
Certainly you know how to do a few things, if you're well enough to reply. You've been able to find a place to stay and the meals you need, yes?

[It's best to start from the basics. He learned to be independent early, but he thinks he can understand a little of those feelings. He was on a strict schedule for a long time until he came here, even if he'd partly defined it for himself.]
nobetawedielike: (113)

[personal profile] nobetawedielike 2025-01-03 05:43 am (UTC)(link)
I have, the people here have been kind. I don't know what I would have done otherwise.

[ otherwise, she was used to being in one room, quietly toiling away. the only thing new was the lack of supervision, and the ability to lay on her bed and read the ebooks on the tablet for hours with no one to stop her. ]
chimericalclaw: (a: pleasant)

[personal profile] chimericalclaw 2025-01-03 05:49 am (UTC)(link)
We have been fortunate that there are others here so willing to help, haven't we?

[Even if he didn't have his magic, Altius would have figured something out for himself, but even in his true feelings, he's grateful that he didn't have to brute force the issue.]

What is the first thing that comes to mind that you've had trouble with, then?
nobetawedielike: (92)

[personal profile] nobetawedielike 2025-01-05 10:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Leaving my room is...difficult. There are so many people everywhere.

Talking to them is confusing. Keeping up with facial expressions, and tone, and if they're telling the truth.


[ she'd been gullible when Tilda had inserted herself into her life. that someone would lie or manipulate her hadn't even been a thought. ]
chimericalclaw: (a: listening)

[personal profile] chimericalclaw 2025-01-05 10:23 pm (UTC)(link)
People are difficult enough to understand even when you've spent your entire life around them, but it's made much easier with practice, and by taking things one step at a time.

Have you been to the library yet?
[He's going somewhere related with this question, he promises.]
nobetawedielike: (115)

[personal profile] nobetawedielike 2025-01-06 12:08 am (UTC)(link)
I've wanted to, but not yet.
chimericalclaw: (a: pleasant)

[personal profile] chimericalclaw 2025-01-06 12:34 am (UTC)(link)
It's a good place to be around people without having to interact, so you can start getting used to them.

I could take you there, if you like. We don't have to do much talking, either, if that would help.
nobetawedielike: (113)

[personal profile] nobetawedielike 2025-01-06 04:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Really? You'd go with me?

I'd like that.
chimericalclaw: (a: simple)

[personal profile] chimericalclaw 2025-01-07 07:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Of course. It would be my pleasure.

[He's always looking to do more research on this or that, anyway, so it's not even like he'd be taking time away from his own endeavors.]

You can call me Altius, by the way. Your name is Beta?
nobetawedielike: curious, talking (39)

[personal profile] nobetawedielike 2025-01-18 09:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes. It's nice to meet you.

[ there, that was a normal conversation piece! good job, Beta. ]
