Mini Event: Weekend of Misfires

[seasonsmods]

Somewhere in the Research Center...

"Meowr?!"

"AAAAAHHH!! Oh no! Buttercup you can't just drop my coffee onto the server! Bad kitty! Bad! -- Ohh, Helene is going to be so pissed off once she hears... better start fixing this. Buttercup, this is the last time I bring you to work!"

"Mreow..."

"... you're right, it's not. But I'm still annoyed at you, you little cutie troublemaker."

Note: The above is not something anyone would be aware of, just a "how did this happen"

Welcome to a Mini Event which is basically: network server has been damaged, 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 once they finally manage to fix the mistake.


Remember to put warnings up if you want to post anything NSFW-ish and especially link pictures; however if it evolves into "sexting", remember to move it to another post.

I would try searching in the stores for food, rather than ask here.

text forever

[vintagehardmedia]

I was using text to speech while searching the web. It's normal. Lots of people do this all the time.

Cherry Coke must be a cyptid here. I can't find it.

[unnecessaryflourishes]

I have certainly never heard of it.

As to the matter of normality... it is hardly something I have frequently seen displayed for all to see, as has been the case here.

[vintagehardmedia]

Something must be glitching. Now everyone can see how I failed that Quest. Again.

Do you know where I can get a soda?

[unnecessaryflourishes]

I do not. If you cannot find one at any of the stores present here, it is possibly they do not exist within this reality.

[vintagehardmedia]

But I don't wanna exist in that kinda reality!

[unnecessaryflourishes]

And I had not wished to be torn from my rest yet again. But here we both are regardless.

[vintagehardmedia]

Spoken like someone whose never had a cold coke on a hot day.

[unnecessaryflourishes]

I have not. Such things do not exist on the world I would hail from.

[bravestknight]

[This was...interesting to say the least. He's invested by the end of it.]

What's a cherry coke?

[vintagehardmedia]

I don't know how to explain it.

What's a seal that can shoot off blasts of water like it's a fire hose?

[bravestknight]

I have no idea. Both sound really weird though.

[vintagehardmedia]

If I find a can, I'll let you try it. It's a sweet but slightly bitter drink that's served cold and fizzes like something you'd find at a tavern.

Poppy is something else, though.

[bravestknight]

Poppy?

Also that drink sounds good. If you find it let me know and I'll try it with you.

[vintagehardmedia]

The weird seal.

She keeps making a call that sounds like Poppy, so that's what I'm calling her.

I'll be sure to hit you up if I find a can. It's literally the best stuff ever.

[bravestknight]

The weird seal...Did you get it out of a machine like everyone else?

Please do. It's been a while since we've last seen each other.

[vintagehardmedia]

Yeah, and she's very happy for being a vending machine prize.

I tried to help a kid jailbreak the rest of them, but the machine is rigged against defenders of animal welfare.

[bravestknight]

Jail break? I thought they were in a vending machine?
