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.

I'm not too worried about it. I mean I'm not happy about it, don't get me wrong, but... There's not much I can do about it now. I guess maybe it's not hitting me that hard because it was such a short amount of time?

[But they do appreciate the intent]

Not... really. But more than you'd think? Sort of.

There aren't too many prostheses like mine, but prosthetics in general aren't rare either. Arms, legs, full-body sometimes... Haven't seen another clock yet.

Maybe? Even so, it's still pretty rude of them! But this also means that they have a way of sending us back home at will. I'm not sure if that's worse knowing or not. [ Shigeru is not a fan. ]

A prostheses. We don't have many of those back in my world. But a prostheses for your head, that means... [ Does he not have a head or something?! ]

Yeah, it's (maybe) what you're thinking. This head replaced my old one.
mysophobic: (31 - questioning)

[personal profile] mysophobic 2025-01-08 10:49 pm (UTC)(link)
I...I want to ask how but I wouldn't want you to feel uncomfortable or anything with telling me!!! [ How does that work?! As a doctor, he must know. How do you just replace a head?! ]

I'm guessing it's something magical, right?

[personal profile] followyourstar 2025-01-08 10:56 pm (UTC)(link)
No, I don't think it's magical. Like I said, prosthetics aren't that rare back home, so it's just a matter of, uh, swapping things around.

That's probably not a helpful answer, but it's the best I have. I don't know all the details about the process, just that it was done.

I know this might sound weird but...I wonder if my powers could help you?

I mean I never had to reform a person's head before...but if you ever wanted to try, we could?? But it's just a suggestion and you don't have to answer if you don't want to!


[ Shigeru is just doing what he does best and offering to help regardless. ]

Hold on. "Reform" my head?

Like, from nothing?
mysophobic: (190 - aback)

[personal profile] mysophobic 2025-01-19 06:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Maybe?! I've reformed other body parts before...

But a head was never one of them.
[ He is still willing to give it a shot if Dante is okay with it. ]

But only if you're comfortable with it, of course! It's a lot to consider so...so please take your time to think about it.

[personal profile] followyourstar 2025-01-19 07:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Um...

Maybe...

Not right now. Not that I don't appreciate it! I just... think I need this one for a little while longer.


[Not to mention the fact they don't even know what their old head looked like.]

But if a day ever comes where that's not the case, I know who to contact now.
