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!

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

[ look gags are just an alternative form of restraints?? don't worry about it. ]

That bad, huh. Why not wear gloves, in that case? You know, the really heavy-duty kind.

it'd be a bother to find them. it's easier to kill him.

( or threaten to... at least... )

What exactly did he do to earn so much of your ire?
skirm: (pic#16875391)

[personal profile] skirm 2023-12-15 09:36 pm (UTC)(link)
exist

( not a text meant to be sent but ig he thought of that so fast it translated into a text...

[ damn. harsh. ]

He and I have had dealings in the past. I like to be aware of the type of people I involve myself with.

( oh my god.... hsy WAS right. y'all are exes... )

he's a fatui harbinger. what else is there to say?

[personal profile] frostfist 2023-12-16 04:13 am (UTC)(link)
Unfortunately my dealings with the Fatui have been rather limited up until now. But it sounded as though you and Childe have quite the...intimate knowledge of each other.

[ WHO ARE THE EXES HERE, HUH???? ]

( do you like spreading misinformation for fun, wrio. do you. freak )

whatever you think that guy and i have is wrong. i don't know or care about him. don't make up fake relationships in your mind to sate your weird fantasies.
frostfist: (pic#16780262)

[personal profile] frostfist 2023-12-16 04:29 am (UTC)(link)
Then why don't you enlighten me on the actual nature of your relationship? Surely that would be much easier than running around in circles.

( squints... is this bait. )

we're strangers. i recognize him as one of the fatui harbingers, and he thinks he knows me. that's it. there's nothing more to it, so stop assuming. it's annoying.
frostfist: (pic#16873256)

[personal profile] frostfist 2023-12-19 03:45 pm (UTC)(link)
He thinks? What would give him that impression?

[personal profile] skirm 2023-12-22 04:37 am (UTC)(link)
( oh you know. the normal stuff. former coworkers until someone decided to mess with the super cool big knowledge tree... )

he said i remind him of his siblings. ( not.. a lie, but ) he hit his head somewhere, so he gets weird about it. i can't stand it.

[personal profile] frostfist 2023-12-22 03:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Have you tried hitting his head again?

[ you know, the good ol' factory reset. but, how interesting.... ]

[personal profile] skirm 2023-12-28 03:16 am (UTC)(link)
( is this what fontaine's laws stand for. damn )

hmmmmm. not a bad idea. getting his wires back in place so he can stop acting like a buffoon wouldn't be so bad, but i'm afraid there's simply no hope for him.

( something something, we'll have to kill this guy, wrio )
frostfist: (pic#16873264)

1/2 this was not worth the amount of time i actually spent

[personal profile] frostfist 2023-12-28 03:53 am (UTC)(link)
frostfist: (pic#16873272)

anyway.

[personal profile] frostfist 2023-12-28 03:54 am (UTC)(link)
Tried everything already?
skirm: commissioned, please don't take (pic#16671917)

that's the best thing ive ever laid my eyes on thank you so much

[personal profile] skirm 2023-12-28 04:07 am (UTC)(link)
not torture, but i feel like he'd enjoy it. ( freak that he is )
i don't really care about him, so if you want to try and hit him in the head yourself, go ahead. maybe you'll be lucky.

( and then childe is gonna attach like a puppy to wrio and he'll be free from this burden, thank you )

[personal profile] frostfist 2023-12-30 09:52 pm (UTC)(link)
No thanks. I'd rather not have him following me around like some stray dog.
