[MOD POST] Network Unlocked!

[vrdr_mods]

It's in the wee hours of the morning that all residents of the Velvet Room receive a message on their phones.

Good morning.

In the interest of strengthening community bonds and preventing further vandalism on what was intended as a community board, I have elected to expand the capabilities of your communications within this realm.

Every device with network capabilities may now access a specialized social network designed for your convenience.

I have been told there is a similar application in reality, but for our purposes, you may call it Flutter.

Fortunately, it is closer to what you may consider a forum or a blogging apparatus. A limited character count would undoubtedly provoke misunderstandings. Someone could state that they enjoy pancakes, and others may assume they despise waffles.

Please do enjoy, and best of luck on your endeavors,

Igor

P.S. While vandalism is not strictly illegal within this realm, it is important to remember that there are children present. Use your abilities wisely.

[Any attempts to respond to this post will be redirected to a Flutter post. Feel free to threadjack and gossip amongst one another. Perhaps you'll even get a reply if you're lucky...]

[ooc: Congratulations! You have unlocked a network. Its functions are about on par with most networks in DWRP. You can do text posts, audio posts, insert videos if the device has a camera (e.g. phones or a computer with a webcam).

The difference between network posts and IC inboxes is primarily that network posts are accessible to any character. When posting, you can clarify a post is network via post prompt or in the post title. Posts can include action and network prompts as well!]

Oh my, looks like I have another social media to keep up with now...

... Kidding, of course. Be sure to look forward to my food reviews :)

[pancakeboy]

We're going to need rankings for the food blogs, with you, me, and Phoenix all on board.

[thedevilinyourdetails]

all on the
charcuterie board
you could say

[pancakeboy]

That's the worst pick-up line I've ever heard, Kurusu-kun.

[thedevilinyourdetails]

you WISH I was picking you up, pieboy lmao
i will supply cooking sherry tho for any cooking competition
please.
i have so much of it

[pancakeboy]

You've severely misunderstood this competition if you think any cooking will be happening.

Also, "pieboy"? Don't I even merit French?

[gorobo]

What does this mean? Please don't troll me, okay?

[gorobo]

A competition, then? Haha, I don't want conflict... but I don't intend to lose either, you know.

[pancakeboy]

Funny. I suppose if any of us did intend to lose, we could count them out of the running right away, couldn't we?

That should cut the numbers down to size quite handily.

[gorobo]

Of course. It wouldn't be 'me' if I gave up so easily, now would it?

I look forward to your honest reviews.

[herewardbound]

that fucking food blog is what got me caught i most certainly am not on board

that and the fucking cat

[pancakeboy]

You too, is it?

Can I interest you in a drowning, should the occasion arise?

[What? He's joking... probably. God, none of you have a sense of humour.]

[herewardbound]

Better idea:


Have you ever seen a cat washing machine

[seekerofjustice]

You've reminded me that I haven't updated my blog in quite some time. I wonder if I should make a similar blog here.

[gorobo]

It should be interesting!

I wonder what diffences in taste we would have. We are the same person, but even so, we are distinct people. I can't lie, I'm very curious.

[seekerofjustice]

I'm curious about that, myself. I can't speak for the others, but I'm quite fond of confections and pastries.

Pancakes or waffles, crepes of all kinds, and such. They were mostly what I found myself filling my blog with.

[vrdr_mods]

I do wonder how you and your sisters manage to eat! Do you have proper tastebuds? Is it pleasant? Does it inconvenience you in any way?

Come to think of it, you may not be able to respond in your current state. Perhaps I'll need to ask Aigis at a later date.

[pancakeboy]

[oop. he is R e a d i n g.]

[gorobo]

?

I don't know what you are talking about, Elizabeth-san. I don't have any sisters, and why would eating be an inconvenience?

Even if I had any sisters, why wouldn't they be able to eat?

If this a joke, I'm afraid it went over my head!

[vrdr_mods]

Oh dear. This will never do.

It's such a shame that you have to keep up the facade.

This is the part where I'd offer encouraging words, but I suspect that may only hinder any efforts to assist you.

No, I believe it's for the best that I keep this vague for now. To any "lurkers," I leave the rest in your capable hands.

[gorobo]

?????

[fogboundcrow]

In other words: beep boop.

[gorobo]

Please don't troll me!

[fogboundcrow]

It's not trolling. It's implication.

Though I suppose you wouldn't be able to admit to understanding, even in the event that you did.

Fortunately, there are ways around that.

[gorobo]

?

Ah... that's vaguely threatening.
