Un: Zodiac | Mid-Month Update

[kaisoumods]

WHO: Everyone!
WHERE: Libra App
WHEN: February 14th
WHAT: Zodiac Network Post
WARNINGS: None!

[We've reached the middle of February. Cupid arrows are still flying through the city, making people explain what's deep in their hearts. The post begins like the previous one had, with notifications of peoples coming and goings]



Ganymede has joined the app. Say hi everyone!


Valvatorez and Cassandra have left the app.


[The post then continues on as normal.]

Hello. Thank you for using the Libra App.

I got shot with an arrow on my way to work today, so let's make this quick:

I don't like any of you, I don't like doing these updates. Valentine's Day is nothing more than a sham meant to sell stuff and love is dead.

Now for a word from our sponsors.




This post is sponsored by Golden Peacock Jewelers. Show your love this Valentine's day with gold.

[Users will have the option to choose their own display names and user pics if they haven't already. If nothing is chosen, the app will use their real name and a quick photo taken of them from their camera's phone. Like always, there'll be no responses from Zodiac. And as always, feel free to keep backtagging the event logs! ]

Very fortunately for you! Far as I know they stopped killing Catholics before I was born, but even a whiff of Catholicism would stain a man's reputation, among the Brits. It didn't matter as much in the Caribbean, but that might be because of the Spanish.

[And if people did go around with ash on their foreheads on Ash Wednesday, Edward would not have noticed, busy as he was indulging himself.]

Maybe. [Nice of Jun to be optimistic about it, but Edward knows that if God exists in his world, there's only one place a pirate and killer like Edward is bound. He's made his peace with that. What he hasn't made his peace with is the guilt of being the one left alive when better people have died.]

You're part of my crew. Of course I'd help. Call it a duty of care. [God knows he should've done better by his own crew in the past, by Adé, by his friends. He's trying now. Are you there, Mary?]

Haha, oh nooooo. I'd hate to get my reputation stained among the people who think black pepper is spicy. Guess I'll have to be careful if I ever find myself time traveling.

[Anyway.

Yeah, he can tell Edward is skeptical of what he said. Jun believes in what he said, but he won't push the matter further. As he said before, he wasn't interested in preaching his religion. Nor did he want to accidentally out himself to prove his point. ]

Well, however you view it, I appreciate you looking out for me, Captain. I want you to know that much.

If you're going to time travel to my era, your best bet's with the Spanish. Last I checked, Catholics had a strong foothold there.

...maybe not in the Caribbean, though. Plenty of pirates who have a fondness for Spanish rum there.

[Edward would duck his head and play it off with a quick laugh and a change of subject if this was in person.]

You're welcome, I suppose. Also are you allergic to anything because I'm at the bakery right now and there are so many kinds of plain bread that my head is spinning.

[whiteshroud]

Ha, I'll be sure to keep that in mind.

[All of those options sound bad, but still. Good to know.]

Any kind is fine! I'm not picky and I'll be even less so when the fast's complete. Just pick whatever you think looks good.

Oh, and friendly advice: If you choose to be Neuvillette's escort for the evening, I highly recommend you don't make your crimes a conversation topic if you are interested in surviving the evening.

Otherwise, have fun! (oﾟvﾟ)ノ

They’re selling something with tuna filling. That’s allowed, aye?

[Google said it was allowed! Google would never lie to him.]

Duly noted. For $400 an hour, I shall be as pure and innocent as a virgin bride on her wedding day. Besides, it won’t be the first time I’ve pretended not to be a pirate—Governor Torres and his Templar lackeys were remarkably gullible.

[whiteshroud]

Haha, making sure I get protein huh? Yeah, tuna's fine!

[Captain you're such a DAD-]

You as a blushing virgin bride is quite the mental image, Captain. But good. I hope you have a nice time.
