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!

Please use this profile box: (square images work the best)

What would you consider good coffee, I suppose?

My friend is rather bad at mornings, and I would like to give him something to help with waking up. I have tried the coffee he drinks, but it is awfully bitter... and he has no love for the drinks I make. Too much sugar for his taste, apparently.

I respect his choice of beverage, but mayhap there is aught to make it more pleasant? He oft simply drains his cup instead of taking the time to savour it.

[..........] Have you considered he likes his coffee the way it is?

[Sounds like they like it dark like he does. Ah, but that's probably not what they want to hear.] Instead of adding things, find better quality beans.

I have considered it, [ no he hasn't ] but he is oft a very... utilitarian person. I cannot be certain he enjoys it.

How is bean quality determined? I have worked with plants before, but rarely in a processed state.
wherethereislight: (whatever you think)

Maybe he finds enjoyment in other things. [Coffee may just be a means to get through the day.]

Shape. Any imperfections can ruin the brew. Smell. It should not have a stale musty scent. Color. Uniform and lacking discoloration. Do they like their beans light, medium or dark roast? They all factor into taste.
