Mini Event: Network Misfires... 2!

[seasonshelpers]

It starts with a network post from a generic "researchcentre" account. The video feed shows what appears to be an empty cubicle, and a few employees gossiping in the background.

"Can't believe he brought the cat to work again."

"Who, Gary? Yeah, I heard Helene felt bad for him."

The cat in question creeps into the video, curiously nosing and pawing at the screen, as the conversation continues.

"I don't blame her. I saw his dream a couple weeks back, and Buttercup looked so sad alone at home!"

"Oh, that dream cloud thing? What a disaster. Can't believe Bartholomew holds down a job."

"At least it's been a couple years since the cat caused an incident..."

As if on cue, Buttercup gets bored and starts walking on the keyboard. The feed cuts off.

Welcome to a Mini Event! Much like last time around, the network server's having cat-related difficulty, so all network messages have a chance of going to the wrong recipient. It doesn't need to happen, but there's a high chance of misfires happening for the duration of the mini event.

This post can be used for sending out messages that can end up for anyone and everyone completely without meaning to. Feel free to also just send a blank message with your character and receive messages from others! Whatever works best for you and is most fun.

This event will happen for the whole weekend, starting from now and ending on late Sunday night (so March 6-9) once they finally manage to fix the mistake. As always, backtagging is encouraged.

Remember to put warnings up if you want to post anything NSFW-ish and especially link pictures; however, if anything gets explicit (e.g. sexting), remember to move it to inboxes or another post.

[ ah, yes. Kaiko remembers being there with regard to photography skills (or lack thereof).

he gets an artistically framed image of a stack of books in the library in reply. ]

[ Oh? What's this? Wait, this isn't Meteion...Wait what did he send? Oh no. The bad picture. ]

Forgive me, I believe I sent this photo to the wrong person. The wrong photo at that. Though I appreciate the response.

[ Because he's a nerd.

But he also has a nicer photo that he meant to send - Honest! It only has 10% of his thumb in the frame instead. ]

don't worry about it!
it seems like that's been going around today
anyway, I like taking photos so I figured a trade would be nice 📖
even if that wasn't quite what you meant to send
