SHIVER ME TINDERS

Something’s been glitching with everyone’s shellphones this month…! They suddenly fizzle and go black and when they reboot it appears there’s been some unwanted activity happening on them on your behalf.

A network post has appeared and with it, fake social media profiles have popped up too. You didn’t post to it, the shellphones have automatically done that for you. They’ve posted one picture, your age and three random facts about you. Whether or not those facts are true or not is … sketchy at best.

If you’re curious, go scrolling through the network post and see what it says about others! Comment around and ask them about their facts! And maybe make a new friend?

- Oocly, you will post your character to the network post with a picture, name and age and three random facts.
- The facts don't have to be true and can be entirely made up and be random or wild. Or they can be the realist facts about your character. It's up to you.
- Have your character react icly any way you want!
- Post and tag around!
- This is not necessarily a romance/date finding post, we just thought it was funny. Make friends and cr!

huh? i was trying to post to the network.

also, i don't think i'm a plant? ( °ヮ° )?

[rathertalented]

At it would seem you've succeeded, with or without your consent.

I don't believe there's anything wrong with being a plant, if you are. And if not, I believe some mischievous beings are finding a bit of amusement at our expense. I wouldn't look beyond that.

[bloodinbloom]

oh?

it doesn't look like anything really bad has come out of it so far. but i promise i'm not a plant, i just like plants! (>/////<)

[rathertalented]

Well, here we are.

I've met some rather charming plant people, so either way. And no, it seems like a harmless prank thus far.

[bloodinbloom]

you have? what were they like?

i'm glad it's a prank that everyone seems to be enjoying! i'm getting to talk to so many people!

[rathertalented]

They're curious little creatures, really. Sylphs, they're called. Small of stature, but possessed of quite a stalwart resillience. They worship the primal Ramuh, a being of wisdom, and their beliefs refect it. In physique, they resemble...gysahl greens? Or...cabbages with limbs?

I'm sure some are enjoying it more than others.

[bloodinbloom]

i'm not really sure i get what all that means, but ramuh sounds very important. and flying cabbages? they sounds really cute!

well, it does seem like people got stuff posted they didn't like or agree with. but, they're getting to talk to others and also clear up those mistakes so that's a good thing. (- > v < -)

[rathertalented]

Ramuh is something like a god: a primal, or an eikon if you prefer. There is little divine about them, but they are supremely powerful entities.

The sylphs are cute, that much is true, though they are also quite fierce when threatened.

That's a very positive way to view it. Maybe I should give it a try.

[bloodinbloom]

like a god? a powerful entity...

[She only knows a few times that her dad... might've mentioned things like that. She doesn't type for a moment.]

i still think they're cute. but if a sylph ever shows up, i'll try not to scare them!

hehe, go go! make new friends!

[rathertalented]

Something like that, yes.

[It's close enough for understanding.]

I think I am whether I like it or not, not that I have any qualms, mind you.

And how goes your acquaintancing?

[bloodinbloom]

hehe, good!

it's going great! but, someone confused me. they said they don't want to make friends. why wouldn't someone want to make friends?

[rathertalented]

Some people are quite private and prefer their solitude. Most such individuals do have friends, but keep only precious few of them, and prefer to do so on their own terms.

[obliviscere]

[ she wants to ask about the plant-person one, but that seems Rude so... ] Can you really not get sick?

[bloodinbloom]

i can't! my body doesn't like other viruses or bacteria and is really good at stopping them from making me sick.

[obliviscere]

Other viruses? Do you already have one in your body?
Oh I'm sorry, that's probably too personal to just ask.

[bloodinbloom]

it’s okay! yeah, i have a virus in my body. it doesn’t do anything to me, but it really doesn’t like other things. i have to be really careful so i don’t make people sick.

[obliviscere]

I'm sorry, at least it's good it doesn't do anything to you. Were you born with it?

[bloodinbloom]

i was. daddy was pretty surprised when he learned that. not that i really understand how it happened either.

[obliviscere]

That's okay. There's a lot about how I came to be that I don't completely understand. Sometimes a little mystery is good.

[bloodinbloom]

hmmm, you're probably right. it's a little confusing to think about, too.

[obliviscere]

do you think about it a lot?

[bloodinbloom]

sometimes when i'm lonely. i just wonder what my life would've been like if i hadn't been born with it, and if anything might be different.

[obliviscere]

I'm sorry. I do that too, more often than I'd like to admit. It's hard to not wonder what could be different

[bloodinbloom]

is it, but at the same time, i don't know. i'm happy enough. and now i'm here!
