▷ NETWORK MINGLE #1

▶ TFLN.

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.

It happens the first time, and several times throughout the week as your character goes about their new routine. The sound of machine-like whirring, deep within their cranium, like a computer that’s in the midst of processing some new information. Then, there’s the familiar ping of a new public message, and whatever you were thinking about at that point of time will be plastered on the network, for all to read and react to. Daydreaming about ponies at work? Having a fun night out at a club? Regretting said night out at the club? Falling into a deep depression about how your life has turned out so far? It doesn’t matter when or where, because the system doesn’t discriminate. You’ll soon find the thoughts you were having during those moments posted on the network and it won’t be possible to delete.

"The system is updating …

...

The system is updating … "

That’s the only explanation SYNTHIA will give when prodded or asked to take down a post. She’s not too helpful at this moment.

"Yeah, sorry. She gets temperamental like that sometimes. I can’t really do anything about your business being out there. But it’s pretty funny, right? Looks like you got hella wrecked last night. Good for you."

Welcome to our first Network Mingle! This is a TFLN-inspired mingle that’s been tweaked to make it completely canon to the game. Due to a glitch in the system, random thoughts that characters might be having throughout the week will be registered as network posts and posted in public for all to see and respond to. This can happen at any time as they wander around the main base or different Neo Tokyo locations!

HOW TO PLAY:
1. Write out prompts (example below) for others to respond to. These can be thoughts they’re having in bed, at work, while intoxicated or what-have-you. You can look up shower thoughts or TFLN as inspiration, but remember that this will be game canon so it has to be written in your character’s voice.
2. Go around and respond to others!
3. ???
4. PROFIT!

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!

Woah, this place is pretty expensive. I bet Kugisaki would like it! I'll send it to her right now.

Cog. Cog. Cog.

Garlic bread! Does Nanamin like it if it has garlic? I should get some - or should I ask first? It might be weird if I don't ask.

HEY SUKUNA CAN YOU HEAR ME? ARE YOU THERE? HELLO?

Does Fushiguro still like ginger?

I wonder if there's a place to watch good movies. Do they have Deep Blue Sea? Gojo-sensei liked that one...

I really need to wash my hoodie.

IS THAT A KARAOKE BAR

@rabbit

[seaurchin]

[ the 'cog' thing is ... not okay but it's probably best not to talk about it right now. ]

Don't try to wake him ...

[eyescar]

i was just checking!!

[seaurchin]

It's for the best that he's inactive right now.

It would be even better if he were destroyed on your trip here. [ but things never work out so well for them u.u ]

[eyescar]

maybe?? i can't hear him, but i still have cursed energy. i wonder which one it is.

[seaurchin]

Does he usually ignore you?

[balestre]

the movies here are generated by technology.
they're watchable.

[eyescar]

yeah?? are they all sci-fi stuff or are there other things too?

[balestre]

all genres.
but what i've seen so far isn't especially deep.

[eyescar]

that's okay, i just like watching movies

[balestre]

me too.
it doesn't really matter what movie it is.

un: risk

[kubricks]

What's Deep Blue Sea about?

[She hasn't seen that one.]

[eyescar]

genetically modified sharks go on a rampage

[kubricks]

Sounds exciting. I can think of a couple people I know who might like that one.

[She's not sure if it's her thing or not, she'd have to see it first.]

[eyescar]

it's pretty cool! it's not a great movie but it's fun, you know?

[kubricks]

I know exactly what you mean. There's a lot like that.

@nailedit

[kanzashi]

[cute...]

huh
you got off lucky compared to a lot of us
this post isn't bad

don't try to wake sukuna up
nobody wants to hear anything from that guy

[eyescar]

yeah but isn't it better to know if he's here or not??

[kanzashi]

if i was you i'd ignore him forever

[in theory. in reality we all know she's get worked up far too quickly.]

i guess you have a point... if you're going to do it then be careful since we don't know how what effect this world can have on our abilities

[eyescar]

i have to be careful, just in case

[ The worst could still happen... ]

i'll be good, and if anything weird happens i'll tell nanamin right away

[kanzashi]

ok

[talking about nanamin...]

i told him what happened btw

in shibuya he maaaaaybe kind of told me to stay put with nitta-chan and to leave when help arrived
and maaaaybe i sort of ignored that and went back anyway to fight
and
well
you know

un: csm

[nutkick]

come to the theaters. you'll get an everlight discount.

[eyescar]

wait, for real?

[nutkick]

yes, but you gotta sneak from the back.

[eyescar]

... that's stealing
