Buzz buzz buzz! That's the sound of your network device receiving a social alert. Maybe you've poked around your device a little bit already, or maybe you haven't, but either way - you're about to have the chance to take part in one of Fable's social apps!

The notification chimes directly from Flitter (the fairy version of Twitter!) And this app is exactly what you would expect. Mostly nonsense scattered among hundreds and thousands of Fleets (Tweets) from the mystical creatures of Fable (and beyond!)

Your device pings you to the following post:

New Fable villagers!!!!!! Give us ur most spicy take! GO!!! #fablenewbies

3453

While as fun as they are kind, no one can deny that the Fae have a tendency to be quite mischievous. Giving them access to social media only seems to enhance these feelings! Looks like they want the new inhabitants of Fable - or just anyone who receives a magical notification - to post to Flitter with their spiciest take! Do you have certain opinions on how milky a cup of tea should be? Do you think sprinkles on cupcakes are essential or pointless? No matter the opinion, the Fae want to see it and strike up discussion!

Time to grab the popcorn.

Copy and paste the following code into your comment section to make a Flitter post:


Welcome to Fable's first network social! Please read this before participating!

This social post is open to everyone! This means that you do not have to be a member of Fable to participate! You can think of it like a fun TDM, since network socials like this will happen every month within the game.

We ask that non-Fable residents mark that they're not in-game in their subject line, and that Fable residents use the hashtag #fablenewbies in their posts so that the Fae can find them! After all, they wanted to see some exciting conversations brewing within Fable, but outsiders are more than welcome to chime in as well. Feel free to assume that Flitter is just as big of a dumpster fire as real Twitter. The code is only required for a toplevel, but replies can be written in a text font (like courier.)

Lastly, while we love IC banter, please remember to be civil and familiarise yourself with the game rules. Have fun!

Planning on hosting many parties?

Absolutely not.

[ oh. a cheeky one. ]

A shame. I was so looking forward to offering my musical services...

There's no shortage of streets and taverns around, I'm sure you'll figure it out.

That's so... pedestrian.

[ literally... they're used to lavish parties and big venues, but the thought of just busking like any regular old bard would... ]

That sounds fun, actually. So long as nobody tries to pay me in deviled eggs.

[personal profile] veardant 2023-01-30 05:05 am (UTC)(link)
Hah. That sounds pretty specific and unlikely, but I suppose you never know.

Anything else you're picky about, while we're at it?

Ha, just trying to bring things full circle.

Plenty. I'm used to a life of luxury. Everything here is so rustic and wildly different from what I'm used to. Don't even have a bed, or someone to wait on me, or any obligations...




I find it all so charming. I'm quite looking forward to it all. Surprising, yes?
veardant: (043)

[personal profile] veardant 2023-01-30 07:14 am (UTC)(link)
Well. You're really in for it, then, if that's the standard of living you're used to.

[ but tighnari won't judge. this person doesn't seem too high on their own supply, so how they once lived is irrelevant. ]

So long as you can survive, that's what matters. If you need anything, feel free to ask; my name is Tighnari.

[personal profile] unseeming 2023-01-30 06:24 pm (UTC)(link)
It is, but I'm being genuine about looking forward to this. This little abduction is most fortuitous, and the fresh start at life is appreciated.

I'm sure I'll get by one way or another, but I would be a fool not to take note of your offer. A pleasure to meet you, Tighnari. I am Vaer.

I saw your post earlier. So you've managed to put your roots down here and start a business? Congratulations.

[personal profile] veardant 2023-01-30 10:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Glad to see you're taking it all in stride, Vaer.

And yes, I have. I'd like to be able to, you know, go home at some point, but while I'm here I might as well have some coin to my name and a place to sit while I'm eating.

[personal profile] unseeming 2023-01-30 11:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Had a brief stint as an adventurer, believe it or not. Taking things in stride seems to be part of that job description.

Hm. I see. An interesting approach to life here, I think. You don't seem to be in a hurry to go home?
veardant: (004)

[personal profile] veardant 2023-01-31 01:28 am (UTC)(link)
Adventurer? I hope you weren't too troublesome, but if it helped you learn to be more relaxed, all for the best.

That's.. complicated. I'm homesick, of course, but that doesn't mean I shouldn't keep busy
unseeming: (twt_jinxiannie)

[personal profile] unseeming 2023-01-31 04:38 am (UTC)(link)
Not as troublesome as the other adventurers on board, that's for sure. I'm just a humble bard, after all.

Ah. The classic "keep myself busy to cope." Understandable. What do you miss the most about your home?
veardant: (103)

[personal profile] veardant 2023-02-01 03:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, yes, that's what they all say..

What I miss most about home? Hmm.. I miss my close friends, though I'm lucky enough to have many of them here. I miss my forest.

[personal profile] unseeming 2023-02-01 04:03 pm (UTC)(link)
That is fortunate, indeed. It seems as if the Fae have some kind of preference for beings of your realm. How peculiar.

Your forest. Might you be a ranger or druid, perhaps?
veardant: (113)

[personal profile] veardant 2023-02-01 07:47 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm inclined to agree. I wonder why that is..

I'm a Forest Ranger, yes.
[ though he knows a druid, and he misses her. :( ] At least there's plenty of flora and fungi to study here, as well.

[ i do not perceive these brackets ]

Aha. Yes, I imagine you've got plenty of research to do now. Might I accompany you on an excursion sometime? I'm curious about this Forest Ranger business.

[personal profile] veardant 2023-02-02 01:53 am (UTC)(link)
Sure, I don't see why not. The more people know what not to randomly eat from the forest, the better. I hike through the forests most mornings, after breakfast, you're welcome along any time.
