OKCINDR POST #6

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 March 2nd, characters randomly look back at their tablets to see the following:

OKCINDR PROFILE RESET #6
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?
- what is the real you?
- will you still love someone if they're no longer themselves?
- what is a wish
- what are you prepared to do to have your wish fulfilled? would you die for it? kill for it?
- what kind of world do you wish for?
- are all wishes equal?
- does everyone deserve to have their wish come true?
- do you think your wish is more important than the wishes of others?
- will your wish coming true make you truly happy?


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.

gee thanks
I wasn't asking for permission


[ Ragna is not a fan of the idea of wishes being granted willy-nilly; not because he doesn't want people to fulfill their dreams, but rather because he knows it always comes with the price of making things worse for everyone else. No one should have the ability to force their ideas or wishes upon others. ]

Then you won't mind either way, right?
It just means that I won't deem your actions reason for interfering unless you do something outstanding stupid - you know, the Sacrifice Myself To Save Others kind of nonsense.

rebellions: and also people who can use their right hand goddammit (table manners are for losers)

[ That single comment manages to unsettle Ragna more than he ever imagined it could ─ he's fairly sure he's never even told anyone here that he's dead back in his world, let alone the circumstances surrounding his sacrifice. And yes, he wouldn't hesitate to do the same thing again if it meant fixing this world and turning it into a better place for Jinx and others ─ not that he's willing to admit as much, which only makes that last part even more uncomfortable. ]

now why the hell would I ever go outta my way to do that?
I don't do that hero crap
if shit goes down you fuckers are on your own

You tell me. I'm only referencing what I have seen others try to do.
Ah, sacrificing *others* without their consent first isn't allowed either. Just to make sure.
rebellions: that sounds like too much effort (eeeeeh i dunno)

[personal profile] rebellions 2025-03-10 05:54 pm (UTC)(link)
the hell is it with you and sacrifice

anyway no
I don't like the idea of a world where people need to be sacrificed "for the greater good" or some bullshit like that
that just leaves their loved ones sad and miserable
makes the whole thing kinda pointless


[ The hypocrisy of that statement will not be acknowledged anytime soon, thank you very much. ]

Dunno. Maybe it's a race thing. Is trying to stay behind and fight or trip somebody else so that you have a better shot at escaping yourself really that uncommon?

Good.
rebellions: (this is my life now)

[personal profile] rebellions 2025-03-11 10:34 pm (UTC)(link)
uncommon no
stupid yes
and a lot of people are stupid

You can say that again.
Personally I prefer to fight over flight, but I'm not too proud to call a tactical retreat when I have no chances of winning or the costs for doing so are too high.

But then there are also idiots who insist on "solving things - peacefully!" and mean "nobody but ME will get hurt." And then everything turns into a heaven-forsaken mess because all their friends and close ones scramble to keep them safe and then the chaos'll be inevitably perfect.

Like how many ambulances do you need to rescue one guy??

rebellions: lalala can't hear you lalala (nooooooot listening)

[personal profile] rebellions 2025-03-12 10:12 pm (UTC)(link)
I'll stick to just fighting and winning thanks

[ Overconfidence or the very kind of stupidity he's just complained about? Take your pick. ]

tell me about it
they will tell you that their life is a small price to pay to save everyone else but do they ever stop to think about if that's the world the others want to live in?
noooo of course not

bonus points if friends and family end up so angry and sad they decide to destroy the world in their grief
making the whole shit pointless anyway


[ Clearly, both of them have some very specific axes to grind here. ]

[If they were next to each other in person Douman would offer Ragna a drink or a smoke in solidarity between fellow sufferers. Having to deal with certain (very special) people is a headache.]


Yeah. They just never stop to consider what will happen after they get their way. Like great, you died to save the village. Now who's going to help your wife raise your seven kids?

[Douman would, although he'd also rather die than ever admit it. During his long life he has aided a fair share of left behind ones of so-called heroes.]
rebellions: (i'm cross you didn't tag my battle)

[personal profile] rebellions 2025-03-18 09:17 pm (UTC)(link)
[ The camaraderie would probably only last until he realized Ragna is being a giant hypocrite here, since he's also the kind of person who wouldn't hesitate to give his life for the sake of others, their feelings on the matter be damned. ]

at that point all they're really doing is hurting their loved ones
but I guess it was worth it to them


[ He would know; his sacrifice was absolutely worth it if it means his little siblings get to live normal, peaceful lives. ]

I wonder
as one who was left behind to live, I sometimes dream of going back and shaking a certain someone by their collar
rebellions: like bang's subordinate c or orient town waitress or... (at least someone gets to be happy)

[personal profile] rebellions 2025-03-22 06:28 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't think anyone would blame your for that
not even the person in question


[ He has no doubt that if, by some miracle, his little brother was to show up here, his first order of business would be killing Ragna. And this time it might be somewhat justified. ]

Oh, I'm sure he would. He's such a whiner.

[Text can't convey the fondness those things are thought with.]
