flitter!

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:

The Fae
@faithtrustpixiedust Flitter

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

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!

Oh dear, I do believe that people who enjoy other sauces would be sad.

[outride]

Huh? Why would they be sad?

[localweirdo]

There are some people who would argue that sriracha is overrated. Watch out, there will be a lot of comments that would disagree with you.

[outride]

Ehh, I don't mind! Everyone's allowed an opinion, right?

[localweirdo]

Are you sure?

Could you truly handle all the comments?

[outride]

Well, I'd try my best!

[localweirdo]

Even at the cost of your own mental wellbeing?

That is a rather bold task you are taking.

[Hmmmm.....???]

[outride]

Oh, I won't feel bad if people don't agree on food seasonings with me! It's no big deal!

[localweirdo]

Then I'm glad that you have quite the optimistic attitude about people who disagree.

Because you never know what might happen.

[outride]

Aren't disagreements normal though?

[localweirdo]

Of course! However, you should still be careful.

Let's just say that disagreements can get rather...unruly.

[outride]

I figure that may be the case, but I'm sure I can handle it. This Outrider's a lot tougher than she looks!

[localweirdo]

Such bold and daring words for an outrider.

It makes me worried about your future safety as these comments could make or break you.
For such people might bite more than they can chew.

[Yes, she just made a small little rhyme there.]

[outride]

But it's just talking about hot sauce on the internet!

There are way bigger threats to my safety than this! Like ... my job as an Outrider, for example!

[localweirdo]

You'll be surprised. Even when there are bigger threats, they will definitely find a way to make it even bigger!

[outride]

Well, yeah, but ...
It's hot sauce! Surely no one's crazy enough to get heated on an opinion on THAT!
... NO pun intended.

[localweirdo]

You say that now but are you sure?

You are positive you won't regret your words....?
