▷ DOWN TIME / NETWORK MINGLE #2

▶ DOWN TIME.

As Outsiders make themselves comfortable back on MAIN BASE, they will be informed of a reward for their great efforts. A pizza party will be held sometime after the kaiju fight and before a Valentine's party. All it really contains is pizza being served in the cafeteria along with the following streamers with balloons:

GOOD JOB:
TOP KNOT (K.O)
HAT GUY (294)
SNOWMOON (292)

Those who do you attend the party will still get this message as a marquee text along their ocular device. Characters CAN take this message off, but it's a bit complex. Try under General > Settings > Notifications > Messages > Texts > Alerts > Appearance > End Battle Notifications > OFF. Hopefully you won't miss something exciting by doing this. The marquee will disappear a week after the kaiju fight.

▶ CHOCOLATES.


On the day of February 14th, every Outsider will find that there is a box (or several) of chocolate. As soon as their eyes fall on them, their oculars will automatically generate a message, almost as if it were a mission debrief:

█ █ █ MISSION OBJECTIVE:
✖ Hand out all chocolate before end of day.
✖ Failure to comply will be grounds for disciplinary action.

It's unknown who the order has come from, but those who don't hand out chocolates by the end of the day, will find that the very next morning, they are confined to their room for a full 24 hours.

During the duration of the holiday, Outsiders will see a tiny number in the corner of their oculars, which notates how many chocolates they have left to give. This number may also not move unless the chocolates are delivered with enough good will. Maybe add in a word of gratitude, a flirty comment or two, or even a fake confession if you're bold enough.

HOW TO PLAY: Feel free to use this post to play around with these prompts, or start your own logs (both are completely okay)!

NOTE: Everyone is free to decide how many chocolate boxes they were given and how stubborn SYNTHIA is in moving their count down. It can also be assumed that SYNTHIA will be encouraging and guiding Outsiders to complete this mini-mission.



▶ SYNDER.

Although ocular & brain implants are the means of communication nowadays, a messenger service still exists in this world. Mostly everyone uses LINE nowadays even if the need for cellular phones is null. Characters may have already recognized the interface to be somewhat familiar with the similar shade of green and same old slogan.

This time, a new extension appears on the LINE interface. It's something called SYNDER? Outsiders who are curious may investigate this program will see that it has already filled out a dating profile for them. This profile is only visible to Outsiders and not the LILITH crew or any civilians. Outsiders MUST change their dating profile to what they would like or delete it... those who are too slow to change or delete their profile may get an embarrassing profile already filled out for them. Once someone responds to their bio, there's no changing it for the rest of the month! So make sure you check out and see what the system programmed for you.

"The system is updating …

...

The system is updating … Wait.. SEOK DANG, what the █ █ █ did you do?"

Not long after that, another message runs across the screen.

"Hahaha, it was such a shame we had to fight that big whale bitch around this time of year! Love is in the air, so get loving! It might be the last time you get to do it, who knows! Okay, gang, don't tell the Commander or Captain about this. They're kinda serious biz but I really think we all could use some stress relief, right? Fill out this profile below and get minglin'! Or don't. It'll probably do it for you if you don't put SOMETHING though."

Welcome to our second Network Mingle! This is a Tinder mingle; a new application that SEOK DANG has installed into everyone's implants. It's taken a lot of tweaking and hacking behind the rest of the LILITH crew's backs. Seems like the only person on staff who is interested in seeing Outsiders get some is SD himself. These messages are encrypted from the LILITH crew ... besides SD because he's a nosy bastard. Sounds fun.

HOW TO PLAY:
1. In observation of Valentine's Day, this month's text meme is a dating profile! Pick the textarea that is under your TEAM NAME and fill out the spaces.
2. You can write the bio in character or as if Synder programmed their bio for them.
3. Body count can be confusing... even the automatic system doesn't know what that means! Does it mean how many people you have fucked or how many people you have killed? Or both?
4. PROFIT!
5. Special shout out to Roc for giving us this event suggestion!

Participation in this mingle isn’t obligatory, of course. If you don’t want your character to participate, you can simply assume the glitch did not affect them.

We also have a code below for fun, but please don't feel pressured to use it. As always, a regular text thread works out just fine! Most importantly, have fun! All tags on this mingle will count for 2 points each.

(Please remember to put warnings for NSFW/triggering content in the subject header.)

wanderer, genshin impact

[skirm]

"WANDERER"
481 / MALE / BRIMSTONE 001
HEIGHT: Perfect to hug. ♡
BODY COUNT: You could be the special one. ♡
IDEAL DATE: Somewhere romantic with just the two of us, with a lot of nature and cute animals. ♡

A small cute human-looking boy at roughly 5'4, soft to hug and even softer to kiss. ♡ I have a loud mouth, but I'm just too shy to say what I actually feel! Looking for someone who doesn't really mind how much I push them away, because I actually reeeally enjoy having the company and attention of others, and would love to be worshipped. Give me a heart if you're interested. ♡♡♡

PS. My birthday was January 3rd but I was too timid to let anyone know! Happy belated birthday wishes are totally fine!

( needless to say he did NOT... WRITE THIS... it's all lies don't believe in it )

001 — HAPPY VALENTINE'S

( and there goes wanderer, completely oblivious to whatever is going on with his synder profile. at least by now he's used to how lilith works - needless mingling events happen, every now and then, and they tend to be hit or misses. he knows a certain dendro archon who would be delighted to see him do this much socializing, and a sour taste fills his mouth. the amount of times she crosses his thoughts has been increasing, as of late. like he misses her or something. yuck.

whatever. he'll take the chocolates and be done with it. the one actual worst thing that could happen is if he's forced to eat them.

so, to the first person he comes across with, the epitome of gentleness as he hands you a chocolate bar: ) Eat and be happy with it so I can be done with this.

[saudadist]

❤

there's no way you're a hugger

[ did she really swipe right just to hate?

the answer is yes ]

[skirm]

( synthia fix your network why is someone he blocked texting him. curse these glitches...

also: he has no idea what she means until he actually looks at that profile... synthia PLEASE fix your network??????? )

not like i would want to be anywhere close to someone like you anyways
what? so obsessed with me you couldn't help but match to talk to me?

( hate 4 hate... )

[saudadist]

I knew it had to be a troll post or something
you're not that cuddly or cute

[ Even if she can't help wondering if there was a grain of truth to it all. That post narrowed in on some specific insecurities... ]

you'd complain the whole time anyway so no

[skirm]

( the common case of 'it's true but it's so seemingly out of character that no one will believe it anyways'... 😔 )

and i should care about your opinion? haven't learned a single thing since the last time we spoke, but i guess i couldn't expect so much from someone who can barely cook
you sure sound like you know me so well. can't keep me out of your mind?
at least you're doing the worshipping part pretty well

[saudadist]

for someone so offended I'm talking to him, you're sure rambling a lot

you really do like that attention huh?

@hearse

[wheft]

✖

You got hacked, jsyk.

Also, there's no way you're that old.

[skirm]

( is hacked by synthia really hacked at all... sighs )

i'm aware. i can't get rid of it anyways, and no one is going to believe it. it's just bothersome.
the age is accurate, though. not that it's important.

[wheft]

[ well, he's got a point. no use trying to tease him about it when the entire thing is too stupid anyway. ]

Should've known you aren't human with what you're capable of. Though in hindsight, it was stupid of me to challenge you back then.

[skirm]

don't beat yourself down. there's no way you could've known.

( except by looking at his profile back then but he's being NICE.. which is a rarity. so :\ )

that you didn't die from all the attacks i put you through speaks more about yourself than me. you survived fighting a divine creation one-on-one, isn't that something to be proud of?

[wheft]

[ LOOK she normally doesn't pay attention to these things!! thanks SD :/ ]

A divine what?

I mean, I can't deny that you'r dangerous and all, but I still think you held back on me. I've had much worse.

[frostfist]

[ he doesn't actually want to match but the heart is funnier ]

❤

So should I be calling you Grandpa instead of Hat Guy?

[skirm]

people around will be more inclined to think you've gone insane than that i'm old enough to be one, but if you enjoy being seen as a maniac so much, go right ahead.

( he doesn't even mean to be rude about this but damn )

[frostfist]

There are worse things to be seen as.

[ like a psychopath. ]

What did you even do for 481 years?

[skirm]

( val is this how you're asking me about genshin lore )

does it interest you because you can't imagine living for so long? because the answer is nothing special. ( uhhhhhhhhhhhhh mass-murder of generations of inazuman families, for one )
what does any living being do with their lives? the specifics don't matter. aren't we all just waiting to die?

[frostfist]

[ yeah. teach me, kain sensei


but also damn. that's dark. ]

Is that how you see it? Personally I've always seen humans as the type to fight to survive.

[ well. most of them. ]

It just seems like a lot of time to be able to explore the world with, that's all. Most of us don't get nearly the same amount of time.

[yuwon]

❤

Oh...

I was late checking in on you.

[ i'm sorry, you really do deserve better, wanchan.

but, this reminded him... ]

[skirm]

( you could've prevented this from happening, yuwon... )

i don't need your supervision, i've told you that. it's not like this matters either. who's going to believe anything written here?

[yuwon]

[ stop, no one can prevent mr. hat guy from putting himself out there... ]

Then are you saying there isn't a single shred of truth in it?

[skirm]

( just lock him inside? problem solved )

the age is accurate. everything else is wrong. ( ? tbh what's a gender but that's aside

also: wrong. everything is a half-truth but :\ )

[hitokiller]

✖

ain't this for courtin' people
not this trampy... whatever ya put down

( whore? )

[skirm]

are you stupid? does it look like i could've written any of that?

( YOU are the whore )

1/2

[hitokiller]

( you're the one that's kissed multiple guys :/ )

stupid???
look, i—

2/2

[hitokiller]

... huh, so i'm not the only one
guess you're right, what with it sayin' you're an old man

[skirm]

( christ. he is actually stupid... )

that's the only thing it didn't lie about. not everyone you meet is human like you.
