HOW IT WORKS:

2. Get rated & rate others: Are they hot, hot, hot (10)? Or are they not, not, not (1)? Share your thoughts using anything from a sliding scale of 1-10, to ✅ or ❎s, to whatever else you can think of. Agree? Disagree? Tell us why!

@shiro

[cranekin]

(He sees those scars and he has questions but he isnt going to ask on the network so...)

What kind of dungeons would a clown prince have?

[uncourteous]

[ damn… everyone spared some trauma dumping for today. ]

Clown prince?

[cranekin]

You.

(The clown prince.)

[uncourteous]

[ excuse me??



jk, now he remembers. somehow, not many people have brought it up... help. ]

Ah, yes. It looks like whoever is in charge found it apt to gift me with such a generous title. If only I could properly repay them. But, considering you are the first to make mention of this...

[ was this an attempt to shame him? or was he genuinely curious about dungeons and torture? ]

[cranekin]

Eh? No one else has mentioned it?
I think the names are interesting.
Do you have any idea why they would have chosen it?

[uncourteous]

Clearly, you are far bolder than most.

[ knife emoji. ]

By that consideration, what is "shiro"? Are you claiming this title has meaning?

[cranekin]

I am.

(He's not ashamed to admit it.)

Of course. It means "white." I think it suits me well.

[uncourteous]

That was not a compliment, Sir White.

[ he's learning fast. thanks. ]

What about you is white exactly?

[cranekin]

(Hope Callisto is ready to receive a bunch of messages because each of the follow is its own message,)

Attached920485.JPEG (A very blurry picture of... fur? Hair? It's white hair.)

Attached077108434245.JPEG (Something blurry and white and so over-exposed its just a white blur with shadows.)
Attached291.JPEG ( A photo of a random street in Neo Tokyo. A stray cat sleeps on an airconditioning unit.)

[uncourteous]

[ what are these series of photos?

for a second he genuinely thinks he may have followed the correlation. white clothes? a pristine pale hand? a white handle for a sword? white... hair that seems to contrast with how youthful the hands that appeared were, albeit it was quite out of focused. almost as if someone had blinked or slipped out of sight at the last minute.

his conclusion at the end of this is: ]

If this was meant to be a display for your artistic talents, I would suggest you seek a different career path. Would it not have been more effective to send your actual portait?

[cranekin]

I prefer music, actually.
And you only asked what was white.

[uncourteous]

If your music making is anything like your attempts just now...

[ he doesn't have high hopes. ]

I did, and I did not think your entire being would be the answer.

[cranekin]

If you ask nicely, I might sing you a song.

(Maybe. Possibly.)

But that's why the name suits me. I like it. So what do you think is the meaning for your name?

[uncourteous]

Oh? It better be quite the song of the century if you are offering to sing it in front of me.

[ does this count as asking? probably not, but he genuinely doesn't know if he wants this either...

he's envisioning it being split up into several clips much like his photos, and he's already internally recoiling ]

Likely an error. It is true that I am the 🤴 of the empire, but I had not adopted any titles relating to being 🤡. [ what are those symbols... ]

[cranekin]

I'm not offering. I said you can ask and I might.

Oh? You're really a prince? Then I should welcome you to this land.
I didn't know we had such an esteemed guest.
Welcome to Japan.
