β–Ά DOWN TIME / NETWORK MINGLE #2

β–· DOWN TIME / NETWORK MINGLE #2


β–Ά 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.

β–Ά 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:

β–ˆ β–ˆ β–ˆ MISSION OBJECTIVE:
βœ– Hand out all chocolate before end of day.
βœ– 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.



β–Ά 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 β–ˆ β–ˆ β–ˆ 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.)

I built one back home that's just as complex as the ones manning convenience stores. He's the greatest thing I've ever created.

Impressive. Did you name this one too?
likemybooks: Close up of the automaton Doty (Doty - automaton)

[personal profile] likemybooks 2024-02-16 03:43 pm (UTC)(link)
His name is Doty.

Pronounced dough-tee

[personal profile] frostfist 2024-02-23 09:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Cute name. Did you build him too?
likemybooks: Taryon with his eyes closed, smiling, and a finger pointed (take this down)

[personal profile] likemybooks 2024-02-23 10:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Of course I did!

Back when I was younger, I built a simple version of him. He got more complex over the years as I added more features and reinforced his body. And when he was destroyed, I rebuilt him again using my notes.

With some help from a friend.

Continued improvement over time...I like it.

Did you add in any cool tricks, or was he always meant to be more like a companion?
likemybooks: Doty writing in a book. (Doty - write)

[personal profile] likemybooks 2024-02-24 04:30 am (UTC)(link)
He can fight, take dictation, and I added a gun to his arm. I haven't tried it out yet but I should hope it works. He also got a compatment inside of him to carry things safely.
And he can speak! It's just one word but you can understand what he means from the tone.
frostfist: (pic#16873258)

[personal profile] frostfist 2024-02-25 04:52 am (UTC)(link)
Wow. You should ask the higher-ups if you can bring him over somehow so we can all meet him.

[personal profile] likemybooks 2024-02-25 04:12 pm (UTC)(link)
I am bugging them so much about it. They give out more points if they like us, so it's a matter of time.
If they will even bring stuff from home.
frostfist: (pic#16873258)

[personal profile] frostfist 2024-02-27 03:17 am (UTC)(link)
I'll be sure to put in a good word for you too then. Though I wonder what kind of technology they have tucked away that lets them just grab people out of their homes like it's nothing.

You mentioned planes before. Are there similar spells that let you take things from one plane and bring them to another?
likemybooks: looking up and thinking (gears are turning)

[personal profile] likemybooks 2024-02-27 03:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Not that I’ve seen. My friend has magic that can take people to other planes of existence, but not objects.

I think there are wizards that could banish things temporarily, although it’s nothing like what they have in the base.

[ Man. That all sounds so cool. Sure, they have Archons and Adepti and all sorts of Vision-holders in Teyvat, but the sheer diversity of what Taryon describes whenever he talks about home is incomparable. ]

You know, I'm a little jealous. You've got all sorts of people capable of doing all sorts of things back where you're from. I wish I could go visit and see what it's like.
likemybooks: speaking unconcerned (dismissive)

[personal profile] likemybooks 2024-02-27 05:56 pm (UTC)(link)
I'll gladly invite you if we find a way. And hopefully visit all the other worlds people from. And all of Neo Tokyo. Everything sounds incredible.
frostfist: (pic#16873256)

[personal profile] frostfist 2024-02-28 02:00 am (UTC)(link)
I'd be happy to give you a tour of Fontaine if we ever find ourselves back there, though it probably pales to what you're used to.

Wish there was some way we could program the simulation rooms to show the places we've been. Think if we bribed Seok Dang enough he'd let us try?
likemybooks: talking to someone to the side (thoughtful)

[personal profile] likemybooks 2024-02-28 04:06 pm (UTC)(link)
With what money?

Or are you suggesting some other method? He seems to be of a hedonistic bent. A party would probably warm him up to the idea.
frostfist: (pic#16873225)

[personal profile] frostfist 2024-02-28 07:18 pm (UTC)(link)
A party, booze, maybe even flattery? Though I guess we'd still need money for most of those.

[ Damn. Still a nice dream though. ]

Maybe one day after we've racked up enough Kryptos from all our missions we can think about it again.
likemybooks: looking up and thinking (gears are turning)

[personal profile] likemybooks 2024-02-28 08:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Things would be so much easier around here if we only had money.

I think doing a good job will get his attention. He seems to like us a lot.
frostfist: (pic#16873240)

[personal profile] frostfist 2024-02-28 11:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Money does make the world go round a lot of the time.

But that sounds like a good enough plan for now. Guess we'll have to keep doing a good job so we can earn Kryptos and also Seok Dang's good favor at the same time.
