WHO: Demyx & You
WHERE: Network Post
WHEN: August 13th
WHAT: Demyx missed the dinosaurs
WARNINGS: none

[Someone was out of town for the dinosaur mess. He just got back. And now he's on the network, making a video post.]

What did I miss?? I got home and the city is a mess! The burger place near my apartment is totally leveled! I liked that place... Is this to do with that weird alert I got earlier this week??

There were dinosaurs! I think they're all gone now? Most people are just doing stuff to help the city rebuild now. I've been trying to fundraise for my parents' charity for people who lost homes and stuff when it all happened.

[ocean_songbird]

Dinosaurs??? Seriously??

[He buys that explanation without question. No proof needed.]

Is the fundraising going well?

[blurrier]

Definitely dinosaurs! Though most people think it was a storm? I think anyone who doesn't have the Libra app. Even my family just thinks it was a really bad storm!

Ummm, well... A little, but everyone is pretty busy lately so it can be hard to get people's attention...

[ocean_songbird]

Getting attention, huh? Yeah. You need some kind of hook. A gimick. Something to draw people in...

[Demyx definitely knows all about that, given his career.]

Oh! You should wear something cute!

[blurrier]

Cute? I think my clothes are usually kinda cute already...

Ah, do you mean like a costume or something?

[ocean_songbird]

Like something really cute! Oh! I could help! We can dress up cute together and cover twice as much ground!!

[Nowhere in there is an explanation of what Demyx actually means when he says 'cute'.]

[blurrier]

Ah! That sounds like a great idea!! You'd really help me with this?

[Apparently unfazed by the fact his question about what he means by "cute" is going unanswered.]

[ocean_songbird]

Yeah! It'll be fun! Hang on, I'll text you my address...

[Sending that real quick. He doesn't live too far, in a nice apartment. No sense of stranger danger, sending his address so easy.]

You didn't see the dinosaurs?

What alert?

[Eve just barely missed the alert since she arrived during the event.]

Re: voice, un: MelodiousNocturne

[ocean_songbird]

I was out of town! But someone else said it was dinosaurs too... man... I'm glad I wasn't home. That sounds freaky...

[Good fortune.]

Um... like... the phone started making sounds and saying something about danger? I dunno... I thought it was like a weather alert or something.

[playtag]

There were many dinosaurs.

[So there were places outside the city. Other places to look for her companions. If only Eve could get out there...]

The phone didn't make noises for me. Not until the announcement.

[ocean_songbird]

Yeah! That! The announcement! The app has done that before but like... not to warn me?? Seems like a weird function for a social media app...

[playtag]

Oh.

What's a social media app?

[ocean_songbird]

Uhhh... the... the app we're talking on right now?

[playtag]

We're talking on a phone.

[Sorry fella, Eve is from a world with older cellphone technology. Apps are a new thing for her.]

[ocean_songbird]

Y... yes?

[Give him a moment.]

The ummm... thing you tapped on your phone screen? To talk to me? Thaaaaat's an app.

[whatsamada]

What alert? I wasn't aware there was one.

[Pause]

Although, I suppose I was too busy with so many dinosaurs roaming around.

Re: Voice; un: MelodiousNocturne

[ocean_songbird]

I dunno how you missed the high pitched sounds this app made... but it was saying something about a breach?? And... yeah. Everyone seems to be saying dinosaurs... that's pretty freaky... but uhhh... where did they go?

[whatsamada]

Back to the portal the last time I heard. Although, I have to admit, as much as they were dangerous to others?

I would have liked to see more of them. [And you know. Have him geek out over dinosaurs just a tiny bit?]

[ocean_songbird]

Really? You weren't afraid of them?

[whatsamada]

When you're used to fighting Gods who wanted to destroy the world? Dinosaurs are the least of my worries.

[Just saying.]

[ocean_songbird]

Gods.

[Oh. Okay.]

That's pretty intense... You uhh... you seriously fought gods?

[whatsamada]

Not by myself! With a couple of others too!

[Which still means he fought them before!]

[begaydocrimes]

Dude. Where have you been? We had dinosaurs roaming around!

I rode a triceratops!

It didn't go well!

Re: video, un: MelodiousNocturne

[ocean_songbird]

I was out of town, dude! Doing a collab for my channel! But you rode a triceratops?? What happened??
