WHERE: libra app.
WHEN: 22/4
WHAT: local cryptid spotted!!
WARNINGS: none atm.

[ the feed opens a young man frowning at the screen. while not wholly unknowledgable about technology he is by no means skilled in removing unwanted apps that frankly do not want to be deleted. it seems he has been fighting this fight for a hot minute and unknowingly hit the video function. xiao exhales, defeated, before blinking rapidly in surprise.

oh, this is on. well, it won't hurt to ask. ]


If there is anyone skilled in the removal of unwanted applications seek me out. [ how are they going to do that, xiao?? ] My own efforts in removing this have done very little.

[ maybe introducing himself will help facilitate the removal of this app? how else are people to seek him out. ]

My name is Xiao.

[ good job buddy, you tried. ]

[Hello mysterious young green man, have a mysterious blunt bird(?) lady here to ruin your day.]

If you're trying to get rid of the Libra app, 'fraid you're shit outta luck there.

[better to hear it now than be fucked later!]

Mostly the former. Folks what have high enough Spirit Energy sometimes get it on their phones after a while. They come and go all the time, but no one's gotten rid of it on their own.

Aside from only the ones who know about paranormal shit getting it, it's a regular ol' message app.

I am quite skilled with app removal.

Unfortunately, this application has resisted all my efforts. I believe you are ‘out of luck,’ as the children say.

This is correct. From my understanding, the only information this app takes is that which we give directly.

[After a day of dealing with Yuuki, Jun decided to go get some air on his favorite roof. It's been awhile since he's gotten to be there alone and--


--- Who the fuck is this.

Standing on the roof is a shrouded person who...well, is pretty close to Xiao in height. His body language is one of confusion. When he speaks, he talks through a voice modulator]


Who are you?

No one of importance.

[TWO CAN PLAY THIS GAME XIAO. He puts his hand on his hip]

Are you new to the city? I've never seen you around before.

[He cannot believe his eyes right now. Normally he is very calm and composed, but he's dealt with some hell the past few weeks and this is almost his worst nightmare?

Not seeing Xiao. That part is actually quite nice.

But having Xiao run into him on a mission, when he knows there are others watching, when he knows that Xiao could be considered a weakness, when he knows that if the Black Order overstepped their contract and tried to recruit him he would not be safe—

There are a thousand scenarios racing through his mind backed by memories of people who are Xiao and people who are not Xiao, and nearly all of them end in disaster.]

Yeaaaaah, from my understanding this thing never goes. It's just around forever. For better or worse.

...Sometimes, for the worse here, honestly. Anyway, hi? I'm Varian. Welcome to the club, I guess.

That's one way of putting it. It'll go off whenever Zodiac want to make an announcement too and doesn't shut off until you look at what they have to say.

[He sounds so annoyed by that, his opinions on Zodiac are...not great. After they openly threaten you, you kind of get done with their shenanigans.

Bless him, he's trying his best.

No problem. Have you been living in the city long? I know...uh some people have been here for a while before the app shows up.

So it's a social app? Hi Xiao!!! You should keep it so we can chat!! [ Why ]

[ Yor's smile is much easier to see, but that probably isn't too surprising. She doesn't seem to mind that Xiao smiles are that small though... ]

Then I will, too! [ She says, like she intended to delete it at all and didn't just immediately accept it being a thing, ] It's nice to keep in touch...though I don't get most of what people are talking about.

[ TBH THIS IS TRUE OF THINGS OFF-APP IRL TOO...SHE'S JUST LOST EASILY... ]

My knowledge with computers is about as far-reaching as a fish's ability to explain how one can climb a tree.

However, I will let you know from my singular experience, Xiao, that this 'app' is not one you can remove.
Neither can you silence it.
Or hide it away in a folder.

Repeated attempts to delete it have made it appear back in my folders despite turning off or restarting the phone immediately upon removal.

I feel as if it is supernatural in some way, and it is hopelessly stuck.

[ like sisyphus, one may be bound to hell when it comes to this app and its incessant need to remain on one's phone. there's no escaping it. ]

The very same reason I have allowed myself to accept my fate with having this idiotic application on my phone, as well. While I despise social media and the idea of people having 24/7 access to me at the click of a button.

I am very interested in the supernatural, so for now, I will tolerate it.

... Are you a new arrival to the city. [ keepin that question subtle--did you drop into the city like his brother, or... ]
