WHO: Rose
WHERE: The Network
WHEN: Early July!
WHAT: Rose is confused about one of her regains. It's probably fine.
WARNINGS: None. Yet.

[When the video feed fades in, Rose is standing in front of the camera with a pair of very distinct handcuffs. She doesn't look particularly pleased, either. She'd meant to make this post earlier, but when she picked up that rock, she forgot about it. Better late than never, probably.]

Last month, this showed up on my doorstep, along with a rock and something else. It's certainly not mine, and while I understand that this world is fond of giving us things, I fail to believe I'm the intended recipient.

[She shakes the handcuffs. They jingle. They are not very high quality.]

So whomever these were supposed to go to, speak up. I don't need them.

[In the tone of someone who has just realized A Thing:]

Oh. This is one of those kinds of apps.

Edited 2022-07-03 19:30 (UTC)

I'm not sure I understand what you mean. I told you, they aren't mine.

[They technically are, but not in any way that she asked for them, so it absolutely doesn't count, right?]

Iii didn't say they were? [Oh my god he was just sorta saying stuff and now he's interacting with the cam girl WHY DID HE OPEN HIS MOUTH? Cue being an awkward af teenager.]

But. Yeah. I... hope you find the owner? If they even want them anymore, I mean...

I don't care if they want them, I don't. They can do whatever they please with them.

[Rose no.]

[....he should just log right the fuck back on out. This is the weirdest thing. he's uncomfortable. But he's also stupid and he's just gonna keep opening his mouth and sticking his foot in it.]

You could just... throw them out?

[SORRY, THORNS, HE'S RUINING THE IMMERSION OF YOUR KINKY ROLEPLAY HERE]

[SHE DOESN'T WANT IMMERSION PLEASE KEEP RUINING IT.]

You know I...hadn't thought of it. I was afraid, with the way this world is, that they would find their way back to me.

[But worse, somehow.]

['The way this world is' uh that's a weird statement. Maybe it's just part of her cat girl persona, who knows.]

I mean, nothing would be stopping you from just throwing them out again. It would be annoying, sure?

[Oh, wait.]

Wait-- things don't just magically appear. Do you think someone's going through your trash and giving you stuff back? [KITTYCAMGIRL, DO YOU HAVE A STALKER??? IS THIS A CRY FOR HELP?]

Things aren't supposed to magically appear, but these did. Along with a rock and some sort of light device.

[This is normal. Everything is normal.]

I doubt it. As I said, these aren't mine to begin with. The world gifted them to me one day. I've heard of similar gifts being given to others.

I wouldn't really say something being dropped on your doorstep is 'magic', you know...

[It's. Kind of just muttered in confusion to himself. But the audio has picked it up juuuust fine.]

Then-- why would you worry about them being given to you again if that's.. not a thing that happens? [He's too stupid for this he cannot follow along.]

And why'd it come with a rock and a flashlight?

Normally, I wouldn't either, but I've seen things here.

[Like that time she lost all regard for her own life! That was wild.]

I haven't the foggiest. At least the flashlight appeared to have some use.

....Are you sure you didn't just accidentally order this stuff and forget?

[man he is definitely not the target audience for this one.]

Well... I guess just throw them out and see what happens, then? They might not belong to anyone.

That's pretty hot.

A stripper pole appeared in my apartment the other day. Just out of nowhere. Stripper pole.

Maybe this place is trying to tell us something?

I beg your pardon?

[She, a proud feline, did not come here to get hit on by a cat person.]

I'm not sure what it's trying to tell us, but whatever it is, I'm certainly not listening.

[Sorry Rose Mae has no shame. Or filter. She does seem to realize she made a whoopsie.]

Maybe they're trying to make up for the fact that they dumped us in another dimension? By telling us we need to spice up our lives?

Kind of rude, honestly, my life's spicy enough as it is.

... Actually it's not, but it's not like I need some magic dimension god to send sexy items to my apartment either.

[The stripper pole is kind of amazing though she won't lie, she kind of wants to try it out.]

Edited 2022-07-03 19:53 (UTC)

I would say they've done plenty to make our life interesting, without resorting to sending us these trinkets.

[She takes a closer look.]

I can only hope they're as they appear.

[He lets out a whistle]

Damn, it couldn't even be bothered to give you a quality pair? Talk about lame.

[If looks could kill, Zelos would be dead after that whistle.]

I want to disagree, but I would rather they didn't give me anything at all. It's not much better than a children's toy.

[He snorts]

Yeah those are definitely not for kids.

I'll pass though. I already have a couple nicer pairs.

Nothing about that is surprising.

Are you sure these don't belong to an acquaintance of yours?

[He makes a thoughtful noise, thinking over all his friends]

Hmmm ... I don't think so? Amal hates restraints, Adol's partner isn't here, Bruno's not into that stuff at all, cuffs wouldn't be Ana's style, and I'd like to think Ris would get something nicer...

So....yeah! No one comes to mind.

I...see.

[How does she even respond to that?]

I am slightly disturbed that you know this information about your friends so readily, but I do believe you.

I mean it's not hard to deduce about them! It's not like we had conversations about our kinks.

Well, besides Amal. It comes up with him more.

[She knows Amal and she's just...gonna pretend she didn't hear that. It didn't register.]

I had never thought to try to deduce such information about my friends, but to each their own, I suppose.

Yup! To each's own!

Any takers on the cuffs yet?

Sadly not.

I'm tempted to throw these things away, but I'm afraid of what might happen if I do.

Yeah, they might come back with friends or something.

I dunno, keep them around? Maybe they'll come in handy someday.

[ And there's definitely a teen girl blinking at this. ]

Huh. Kinky.

Sure hope kids don't use this app, though.

I'm not sure I take your meaning. I'm simply trying to get these to their proper owner.

[Otherwise known as anyone but her.]

I'm sure you can find somebody willing to take them off your hands, but more interested in putting them on your hands.

And I'm sure you're much too young to be making such comments.

I'm not offering, but if you're gonna place such obvious bait right in front of me I can't not make a comment.

There's always the option to remain quiet.

[Like Rose has ever done that, a day in her life.]

You're the one out here corrupting kids, introducing them to BDSM through this weird app.

All I'm doing is valiantly pointing it out.

And making fun of you for it. Also valiantly.

BDSM? I don't even know what that is.

All I wanted was rid of these stupid handcuffs.

...hm. Well, if nobody claims them I can burn them for you.

It would be much appreciated. I hadn't expected this place to give me anything of value, but this is far worse than I expected.

You should ask the others about the "furbies". They're some sort of mechanical voidsent and keep showing up at random.

"Furbies?" I've had several people refer to me as a "furry." Perhaps there's some connection.

Oh, no, no. Furries are...another thing entirely and I'm still not sure I understand it.

I'm not sure I do either, apart from it being a form of insult.

Only in some circles, apparently. I would not advise looking that up, however.

Dare I ask why?

Well, there is a lot of art. Most of it very good! But like all art, there are people who decide to make their private desires everyone else's business.

Private desires? You don't mean...

[The gears are turning. They're turning.]

I am disgusted.

I just wish they would keep them private, or to specific galleries and libraries for them.

[Smut is fine but Rhel doesn't want to see it!]

Those things are so low quality, I'd be surprised if anyone admitted to owning them. These are just tacky.

[Judging by their tone, if someone did admit it, they'd be immediately be taken shopping for better ones.]

So you can see why I'm offended, then? It's not certainly something I'd want, so I don't understand how it showed up at my doorstep.

Unfortunately, whatever force or entity is giving us these things is very hit-or-miss as far as taste goes. If I were an optimist, I'd say you were lucky that your "gift" is just incredibly tacky instead of cursed, but I think you and I both understand that tackiness is its own curse.
