[GAME START] Welcome to Libra!

[kaisoumods]

WHO: Everyone!
WHERE: Network
WHEN: January 7th
WHAT: Welcome to Libra!
WARNINGS: None

[Wherever you are, your phone will start to ring and vibrate. It doesn’t matter if your phone was off or on mute - it will ring anyway. If you didn’t have a phone? You’ll have found one that has been delivered to your current location with a sticky note attached with your name on it.

The ringing will continue until you check your phone. The entire screen has been locked to a new app that downloaded: Libra. It looks like a social media app, even though you’ve never heard of it before. Worst yet, there seems to be no closing this app until you read and respond to the message displayed]

Welcome to Libra! Libra is an innovative app developed by the good folks at Zodiac™ to connect people with similarities that set them apart from the average crowd!

There’s a lot to talk about, but we don’t want to pile too much on you! Instead, let's start things off with a little icebreaker! It’s a little late, but we hope it's still relevant!


This post is sponsored by the 2021 Kaisou Winter Carnival! Get out and enjoy the cold!

[Users will have the option to choose their own display names and userpics. If nothing is chosen, the app will use their real name and a quick photo taken of them from their camera's phone.

Mod Note: The game has officially begun! The first event log will take place on January 9th, but players are free to make their own logs and posts! There will be no NPC response in this network post, so feel free to interact with each other!]

Would babysitting be on the table, dear?

[whiteshroud]

Makima? You're on here too?

[WHO LET ADULTS ON THIS????!?!?!?]

[overlies]

You sound surprised that I was invited to something strange and foreboding.

[ this theme is her life!! ]

[whiteshroud]

Well, when you put it that way....

[Yeah suddenly it makes sense she is intimidating like that]

[overlies]

It makes perfect sense. We can talk about out capitalist friends over some tea too, if you’d like.

That said, I’m waiting to hear your thoughts on babysitting still 😘

[whiteshroud]

Haha, sure cousin. I'd like to hear what you know.

[Maybe he knows more about zodiac than he's letting on, but it wasn't like he was an expert on them. He really did try to stay away from this stuff. ]

Oh, you know I'd be happy to babysit sometimes! Maybe sometime on a day off?

[overlies]

[ she probably knows just as much as the next paranormie (and maybe an extra rumor from the dark web and investigative habit), but it doesn’t hurt to speculate with like minds! ]

That sounds perfect. I feel like I’m overextending Abel, poor thing. Lilith is an expressive boy, you know.

[whiteshroud]

Haha, I wouldn't worry too much about Dad. If anything, he probably benefits having someone who can match his energy level.

[overlies]

My other three boys may finally be weighing on him. He’s quite the piece of father material, holding out for this long.

I’d also like some alone time with him, if I were to be honest.

[whiteshroud]

Yeah, he is. [he loves his dad even if he's embarrassing]

You do? Is something the matter?

[overlies]

Yes! He hasn´t spent enough time with me. I´m feeling ignored.

[whiteshroud]

Oh? Well that's rude of him, we can't have that.

Sure. I'd be happy to babysit while you catch up.

[overlies]

Thank you, cousin. I promise to return him in one piece, once I do.

[whiteshroud]

Eh, if you don't, he probably had it coming.

[she's family he can make these jokes ok]

[overlies]

I appreciate your honesty and your deep understanding of the situation he’s curled himself up in.

Take care, and I’ll send you a time to stop by for Lilith. I’m sure my other sons will be even happier to see you.

[ her non-human furry sons— her two behemoth huskies. ]

[whiteshroud]

Of course! We're all family, after all.

Haha, I'll be happy to see them as long as they don't jump on me again...

[Because those huskies are big enough to knock him over ok]

[overlies]

[ family always brings something so warm to her chest . . . ]

Remember to keep a firm voice and confident posture! They’ll always recognize authority when they see it.

Or toys.

[whiteshroud]

See, that's the problem. With my voice they think I AM the toy.

[#High voice life]

[overlies]

Oh, dear.

I should teach you some tricks. Life tricks. People need to hear you.

[whiteshroud]

Life tricks?

[overlies]

Humans don’t work much differently than dogs do, dear. I won’t be letting any cousin of mine become a chew toy.

[whiteshroud]

[ 💧

This explains a lot about his cousin...]

Haha, well sure! I'm always open to advice from family!
