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:

The kind with lots of syrup and whipped cream.

[boundarykey]

That's so yummy I can just picture them now!!! Since everything is about dreams, we should dream about pancakes today!? 🥞

[nilhilistic]

That would be the best kind of dream certainly.

But what do you mean by "everything is about dreams"?

[boundarykey]

Did you see the questions this funny game asked you? It asked me so many questions about dreams! This place feels like one big dream too!

[nilhilistic]

[ ah. he remembers that. ]

I suppose it gives that impression.

You must be new here.

[boundarykey]

Yes I did! I am still learning stuff; my cats are also missing, and I can't find them. I hope they aren't fighting again, if you see a black one or a grey one, that's Nosh and Luther. Make sure to tell them to go home!!!

[nilhilistic]

[ this girls seems young. younger than humans usually are. not something he has much experience in. ]

I'll keep an eye out.

Are you all settled in then?

[boundarykey]

I am yes! It's still new to me; everything is different from where I was before. I came from Salem, Massachusetts! Now I am here! Where did you come from? Do you like it here better?

[nilhilistic]

I am from Elyos. This world is nice enough but my sister is not here.

Therefore it is somewhat lacking.

[boundarykey]

I never heard of Elyos before... You have a sister? I'm sure she is okay and misses you very much! We will have to help you find her wont we?

[nilhilistic]

She is not here. But I'm sure she is fine and safe back home.

[ home. as if that elyos is their real home. but it'll have to do considering rafal ravaged the last home they had. ]

[boundarykey]

Okay good! That just means we have to get you home then right?

[nilhilistic]

In time. I'm in no rush.

What about you?

[boundarykey]

Don't worry about me! Home is wherever I go! So right now, home is here! Which is kind of neat? I'm not in a rush either, but I will help anyone who needs help getting home if I can!

[nilhilistic]

[ that's . . . odd. ]

Have you not had a home before?

[boundarykey]

Well, I had a home once, but then that home went away. It's okay though, because I went traveling with my Uncle then. Right now, he's not here, and I have Mister Gilgamesh to help me!

[nilhilistic]

[ hm. at least someone seems to be looking out for her. ]

That is a relief.

I lost my home long ago.

[ by virtue of him destroying it. ]

[boundarykey]

I am sorry to hear that. Do you want to talk about it? I know you're supposed to ask other people that when something bad happens.

[nilhilistic]

There isn't much to say.

I was the bad thing to happen to it.

[boundarykey]

[ Oh, she understands completely, but she doesn't want to say that outloud. ]

Are you sad it happened?

I am sad for you; it must have hurt deep down.

[nilhilistic]

I don't have the right to be sad.

[boundarykey]

Everyone has the right to be sad, even if you did bad. But its okay we don't want you sad forever, it would be good to stay strong and look for the future, right?

Even if you did something bad, its okay to miss home too. I know I miss home so much, even if I can never go back.

[nilhilistic]

As I said already, I do not hold that right.

It's fine. I can move on.

[boundarykey]

Okay, I wont push it mister!! Sorry!

[nilhilistic]

It's fine. Don't worry about it.
