OKCINDR POST #5

[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 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:

[Shaw studies him for what might be an uncomfortably long time before she responds. She doesn't mean it to be hostile, nor is she disbelieving of him, exactly - she's just trying to drum up the appropriate response for a situation she's never been good at.

He's glad she's safe, he thinks she's strong, he respects her. It should be easy. And yet.]

Thanks.

[She says slowly.]

I, uh-- really, I appreciate it. If it helps, most of the people who were complicit are probably dead now.

[incorrigibles]

[ for a moment, he isn't sure if he's mistepped somehow — said something wrong, offended her despite his attempts not to do that... but no, it's just her struggling with words, and when she thanks him, he breaks into a bright smile. ]

Anytime. [ he means every single thing he said, so really, anytime!

and then, as he takes in the fact that the people who did that to her are dead... the smile drops into something sharper, his eyes flashing once. ]

Good. [ he means that, too. because as tight a lid as he's keeping on his anger, at all times... sometimes it does seep through. ]

[cactusy]

[Shaw notices stuff like this, even when it's quick or subtle; it makes her grin against the lip of her glass.]

No wonder Root likes you.

[She's seen that sort of ruthless rage on Root's face before. She knows how tamped-down Root can keep her own anger.]

[incorrigibles]

[ this is one of the few times he's ever actually shown it, even a small bit of the rage he keeps chained down — to shaw, here, and to octavian, once, about the man who'd killed him.

he tilts his head and shrugs. ]

Yeah, well. I'm not a big fan of letting assholes get away with their bullshit.
