OKCINDR POST #7

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

OKCINDR PROFILE RESET #7
PLEASE RESET PROFILE

This month, if players reset their profile, they will have a list of questions to answer:

- Do you like long walks on the beach?
- What's your favorite hobby?
- What's the best kind of crime?
- Are you a criminal or a judge?
- Are snakes friends?
- Will they be mad I changed them?
- What would you do to protect someone?
- What if I lost them forever?
- Have you ever thought of gardening?
- How do you know when someone is lying?
- Where do you think those who disappear end up? Or do you think they never truly left?

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:

[sinningtree]

[Guess who hacked read through this entire conversation before sending a private message of his own.]

Yukina, when you have a free moment, can you meet me? In private.

[thenicerone]

Kurama?

Yes, that would be fine.

....Is everything okay?

[HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM]

[sinningtree]

Everything is fine. I just have a question for you. Something I'd like to discuss in person.

[As if he's going to say any different, everything being "fine" is practically his catch phrase.]

[thenicerone]

Alright then.

Where are you? I’ll meet you there if you like.

[sinningtree]

The farm house, I should be here for quite some time today.

[thenicerone]

I’ll see you then.

[And with that, off she went! It doesn’t take long before she entered the farm house.]

Kurama…? Are you there?

[sinningtree]

[He's been working on the basement remodel but with Yukina due he moves upstairs to greet her with an automatic smile when she arrives. The house is quiet, empty for now. Which works in his favor.]

This month's profile update has certainly stirred up some interesting discussions, don't you think?

[He hadn't missed her conversation with Kuwabara, either.]

[thenicerone]

[For a moment, Yukina had to stop in her place. She had to wonder just how much he had seen...]

Indeed, it has. It's been quite the commotion, hasn't it? I wonder if that was what they intended.

[sinningtree]

[He catches the pause, but doesn't comment. Gesturing for her to take a seat before responding.]

It does seem to be the goal of this place to test us at every opportunity.

[thenicerone]

[As she does so, she couldn't help but wonder what he would say next. After all, she doesn't really know what to expect half of the time with him...]

Yes, I am aware and it makes me wonder what they'll do next.

[Hmmmmmmmm.....]

[sinningtree]

[He doesn't answer right away, taking a moment as if to think it over.]

Hard to say, but whoever is doing it seems particularly fond of Hiei.

[thenicerone]

Yes, they do.

[She said with a small voice. She was wondering where this was going to go but...!]

...I'm not surprised you noticed.

[sinningtree]

This wouldn't be the first time, I'm afraid. You recall needing my help shortly after we arrived here, I'm sure.

[Trying to get Hiei to admit to being her brother, and she's still calling him a friend to others, he's noticed that too. Even after the confusion about having a crush on her, Hiei would still rather not clarify anything, and now their positions are reversed, with Yukina trying to get him to talk to Kurama, instead.]

[thenicerone]

I know.

[But it seemed as though Kurama was avoiding the subject. Yukina wasn't one to be blunt but she also knew that she couldn't keep dodging the topic either. Mumbling to herself, she gave a sigh.]

...Kurama, I have to ask you something. How much of the comments did you read?

[sinningtree]

[Straight to the point, then. He watches her quietly for a moment before speaking, himself.]

Enough to see you mention something about a dream.

[thenicerone]

[To the point where she couldn't help but wince.]

...I just happened to enter his dream and felt what he experienced.

[sinningtree]

[Oh, awkward.]

That seems to be an increasingly common occurrence. That is what I had hoped to ask you about, whatever occurred in this dream... had something to do with me?

[thenicerone]

[Was he really making her say it? It seems like she didn't have a choice. With a sigh, she gave a small nod.]

Yes, it did. Did you and my brother happen...to get involved with the toads a while back?

[sinningtree]

[That question throws him off completely.]

You mentioned seeing that to Kuwabara, did you not?

[thenicerone]

I did.

[He was avoiding the subject wasn't he?]

...Kurama, I'm sorry, but is there a reason you wanted to talk to me?

[sinningtree]

Yes, as I said, I had wanted to ask what occurred in this dream.

[He's not making the connection that they're related, he doesn't have the context.]

You mentioned the toads... I have tried speaking with him, however- we both know that Hiei isn't the most direct on these matters.

[thenicerone]

I see.

[With that, she gave a small smile.]

I'm afraid it's not as detailed as it seems. I simply saw you two kissing and that I happened to feel what Hiei was feeling at the time.

[sinningtree]

That is still more than I've had to go on. He was quite upset with me after. As if I was intentionally trying to get a rise out of him.

[A pause, before he adds the rest, almost hesitantly.]

If I'm being honest... I haven't been able to make much sense of it, even now.

[thenicerone]

[And after a moment of silence, Yukina gave a sigh.]

I'm sorry, I tried talking to him about this too and even he didn't want to continue the conversation anymore. I wonder why.

[sinningtree]

He seems to be under the impression that I've already rejected him.

[Weird, considering he doesn't remember that conversation.]

Which is why I was hoping- maybe the dream gave you more insight. I'm sorry, I do not mean to be putting you in the middle of this. Hiei will come around when he is ready.

[Or not at all, which is the more likely option and the one he's most prepared for.]
