UN: Zodiac | Happy July!

[kaisoumods]

WHO: Everyone!
WHERE: Libra App
WHEN: July 1st
WHAT: Zodiac Network Post
WARNINGS: None!

[As June comes to an end, so comes the heavy rains and thunder that indicates the arrival of the water element month. You can't see the spirit vein through the thick clouds and deluge of water, but it's shifted into shades of blues. Everyone's devices will emit a soothing wind chime sound as a new Zodiac post appears. The chime will sound even if you have your phone turned off or on silent, and will not stop until you read their messsage and comment to it.]


Fidelio and Basilio have left the app.

[The post then continues on.]

Hello and thank you for using the Libra app.

Happy July everyone! I hope everyone had a wonderful Pride season and a good summer so far! I myself had a wonderful month, as I decided to take some time off - which is the real reason for my absence! [It was not, she was in the office every day] All and all, I'd say it was a wonderful start to the summer!

Anyway, enough about me- time for some announcements! The Kaisou Anime Convention will be happening at the Civic Center this weekend! The convention will be taking place every weekend, and there will be several family friendly panels sponsored by Zodiac- so dress up like your favorite ninjas and animes and check it out!

Also, this friday please come check out the firework show in Blue Fish Park! Zodiac is one of the many sponsors and we're excited to light up the night sky for the holiday! Please don't let the weather forecasts of heavy downpours all weekend be enough to discourage you! You gotta try to think positive after all!

Well, that's all for now! Try to stay dry and have a wonderful week!

[Note, no matter how much positive thinking you do, the firework show will definitely be rained out]


This post is sponsored by the Papa's Omniria! Try out our special Starlight Spangled donuts today!

[Users will have the option to choose their own display names and userpics 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.

Please note that there will be no city log this month, with the next event log being posted on the 15th. As such, players are free to make their own posts and mingles regarding city events. If you want more details on what's happening the city this month, it can be found here.

If you haven't responded to AC, you still have until 11:59am EST today to do so! Once you do, you'll be removed from this post. ]

[Oh hey! His fellow tall coworker man!]

You is correct. I have been made aware that my preference has skewed towards meats cooked rare, but anyone has the ability to stand over a grill for well over the allotted time. 'Tis indeed skill that will product the best results. A sword in an unskilled fighter's hands does not make them a warrior for instance.

Have you only just come upon this app, Lycaon-san?

[paraselenic]

[More familiar faces! This is such a wonderful surprise.]

Takame, you are here as well? I had just received a message from Sir Zulius and now you...

You are correct--I had just noticed a change in the arrangement of my apps on my phone and narrowed it down to this one, so I thought I would investigate. It seems to be a social networking application from first glance.

[hoshikiri]

[We like seeing friends!!!]

Indeed. You may find many others who frequent the Vogue on this app as well. There are far more than just myself and Zulius.

This app is Libra and as you can see it is run by Zodiac. It makes itself known to certain individuals, though for those who have lived in this city for some time may not know it exists until the right moment. 'Tis something to do with one's own magical energy and compatibility, I believe though there is still an element of randomness to it.

Someone more knowledgeable will explain better than I, certainly. There are good people here.

[And there's also Gemini which Takame largely prefers cause fuck Zodiac but he doesn't want to be rude about it. And also he's not a tech guy.]

[paraselenic]

[He has been so social in the past 10 minutes, Takame! This is the magic of social media.]

So in essence it is like it calls out to you when the time is right, or rather at its own whim. Interesting.

[He will, however, smile at that last statement.]

I couldn't agree more. Just seeing my coworkers and acquaintances has made this such a warm welcome, even if this is a strange circumstance.

Is this why I would often see you engrossed in your phone?

[hoshikiri]

[I LOVE ALL MY FRIENS THEY LIVE IN MY FONE/PUTER]

Precisely.

[Ah, but while Lycaon is smiling Takame can't help but suddenly feel a bit ashamed.]

Ah, yes. It is. I prefer to remain appraised of matters with the other app users. Or am contacted about a task someone wishes for me to perform. Forgive me, while I am often looking at my phone I assure you that my primary focus will ever be upon work.

[paraselenic]

[Oh Takame, you're so adorable. Lycaon is not one to judge--it's not like he's any less guilty of having conversations with little Humphrey on the clock during slower moments.]

Do not worry, it's not meant to be a call out. it's more just a moment of a puzzle piece fitting into place. If anything, I feel more connected to you all now that I have it myself.

:)

[hoshikiri]

[Takame noticed that but he wasn't gonna interrupt a conversation. That's rude!! And Takame knew Lycaon was as diligent a worker as he was.]

I understand. 'Tis no less a good thing to openly state and thus commit to the cause I hold of working where we do. To know you've received this app as well and thus can befriend... or perhaps reunite with new people is a good thing.

[Oh, there's a nice smiley face!! Alas, Takame cannot recall those strange faces that Jun and the one PokeGo member with the long dark hair that Isn't Waver use (5). So he'll do the same instead.]

:)

[paraselenic]

[Two bros chillin' and sending :) at each other is a bond unbreakable.]

It feels like things have clicked, in a way. It's truly warming. Though I think I failed the ice-breaker that was provided. It seems that the hot take I had given was not quite so controversial as you'd think.

How embarrassing.

[hoshikiri]

[The silly billies don't realize the ominous implication it has, just like most of what they say given the fact that they're two intimidating men build like brick houses! Oh that's our Takame-kun and Lycaon-san~!]

Ah, it wasn't? Hm. There are some terms I've learned from Zulius, but I confess I've only begun minding Zodiac's "ice-breakers" after Venti began to assist with them... so I would not have realized your "take" was not very "hot" unless otherwise told.

Still, it is not an embarrassing thing that you did not know. You merely did not know. And in now knowing you have learned.

[paraselenic]

[They truly are the gap moe duo!]

I think perhaps in the future I will leave this to the experts in the field, and I will provide the supportive input. It seems a lot safer than charting into waters unknown.

But...

Your words do comfort me. I strive to be professional in all aspects, that when I fall short I've been told I take it...more to heart that normal.

[You may have seen him reading books on the oddest of subjects, Takame. He's probably studied underwater basket weaving just in case a bartender...needed to know that.]

Ame, you like your meat so rare it is oftentimes still *bleeding*. I love you dearly, but.

[hoshikiri]

Ah...

It...

... It is better that way...

[please beloved he is but a dragon with a carnivorous diet]

[stripartist]

I respect your tastes, Ame. I will just clarify what you mean by "rare" for poor Mister Lycaon.

[hoshikiri]

I know that you do, beloved Fuyu. Thank you.

And you are correct to do so... I realize I lack the ability to remove my bias from this perspective. 'Tis best to have another to clarify.
