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:

network profile

Anna Marie AKA Rogue

@sugarlips

23 // Female // Straight // Single

A southern belle who is a superhero. Or at least, she pretends to be. Because what hero shows no hesitation in killing others?

Her mutant ability is power drain, but she can fly and has inhuman strength, too. The power of flight and strength were not her original powers. Maybe get to know her and ask how she obtain them!

So shoot your shot! She may be young, but that won't stop her from dating anyone who is forty-two years older than her. Come one, come all! Age gap means nothing!

Forewarning: she has issues with commitment, so there's a high chance you're not the only man she's getting friendly with.

Oof... That's... pretty harsh. Does this thing have a grudge against you or something?

[southernchere]

Ain't no tellin, but I've been over it. Let it say what it wants to. Ya'll know me plenty enough.

But where have ya been, Sugar?

[followyourstar]

If you're sure...

Back home, but only for a day or two. I was surprised so much time passed here while I was gone. Anything happen while I was gone that I should be worried about?

[southernchere]

Looks like "goin home" or "takin a big shut eye" has been goin around lately.

I've been out too, but I had my beauty sleep and weeks went on pass me. There were doubles of folks and toads who were forcing us to talk, kiss, or fight.

[followyourstar]

I remember the doubles, but uh...

The toads are new. In a lot of ways. There... aren't any still around, are there?

[southernchere]

As far as I'm seein.

Then I reckon you heard about the crack?

[followyourstar]

A few things here and there, yeah. I didn't get to see it for myself, but the fact that something like that is there at all is...

Hm. I'm not sure if I'm hopeful, worried, suspicious, or all of them at the same time.

[southernchere]

I still say we should of busted this simulation wide open when we had the chance. Now that my teammate can confirm when they stuck their hand thru it, they felt icy floors. So there oughta be no more "what if we die" higgedly-piggedly.

But I ain't callin the shots. Only talkin out my opinion.

[followyourstar]

I don't regret the decision I made before given what I knew at the time, but hearing about this I gotta admit you guys may have been onto something.

[southernchere]

Well, I ain't tryin to toot my own horn here, but we X-Men built our own simulation in our mansion called the Danger Room. It's filled with programs and cycles of different villains, climates, and situations to help us train our stamina and enhance our powers.

We might have sum experience with what we're dealin with.

[im not salty, you're salty.]

[followyourstar]

Hey, I'm not saying that you don't have experience, just that my world definitely doesn't (maybe?).

[southernchere]

I know. Not every Earth is different. I didn't mean to come off ugly if I did just now. It's just...been hard to cope, I guess. But we gotta look on forward.

I wonderin what the next move is from here.

[followyourstar]

Figure out what caused the crack in the first place, maybe? It was around that thing with the moon, but I don't think it's a good idea to try and replicate anything close to that. For a lot of reasons.

I'm also curious to know what all these questions about sleep are for. Kind of a strange thing for something that doesn't sleep to be focused on.

[southernchere]

Well, my powers came back swingin, so maybe I could give the air a bit of a touch. See how far I can fly up and see for myself.

I reckon it's a hint. Maybe we're all sleepin on the outside and they are tellin us to
wake on up? To get out? That makes the most sense from my mind.

[followyourstar]

It's worth a shot. Might as well try and figure out just what kind of place is on the outside while we can.

You think it's some voice from the outside getting through? The AI was reset, so it can't be the one saying it. Unless someone actually did manage to back it up?

[emotionalbeast]

Interesting ability there. Up for a challenge?

[southernchere]

I'm all ears, Honey. What kind are we talkin?

[emotionalbeast]

Your ability(s) vs mine.

[southernchere]

What kind of powers ya have, Darlin?

[emotionalbeast]

Fair. My ability is Rashomon. She can manipulate the clothes I wear.

[southernchere]

... You're gonna have to explain that further to me, Sugar. Cuz I don't get it.

[emotionalbeast]

It’s Akutagawa.

It’s better to see it in person. Rashomon is both my sword and shield. I can extend and shape the fabrics I wear to blades, bind my enemies, and repel attacks.

[southernchere]

Yeah, you're gonna have to show me that one. I ain't never heard of clothes turnin into a sword. I might can buy it as somebody usin it as protectin ya. That is what they're used for, but nothin like that.

[emotionalbeast]

Underestimating an ability is one’s downfall. Message me when you like to meet.
