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

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:

<b style="width:100%;">
<font color="#fff">✿</font> Character Name<br>
<a href="journalname" style="color:#838A92;text-decoration:none;"><font color="#fff">✿</font> @username</a>
</b>

<a href="" style="color:#fff;background:#b37165;text-decoration:none;padding:12px 20px;border-radius:30px;">Flitter</a>

</div>

Write your character's Flitter post here! The character limit is 280 but we won't tell anyone if you go a little bit over. add #fablenewbies if you're a game member!

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!

This might make things difficult.

There is no need to be entirely proficient. As long as we're competent enough to maintain an orderly environment then I believe we shall be able to manage.

You are rather optimistic in how we'll manage.

But it seems that we don't have a choice. Very well, I shall try my best to do the remaining household duties! Just be prepared, I might need some practice.

While I don't wish to admit this, I know my disinterest in household chores will it make it difficult to maintain an orderly home. However, I'll assist to the best of my abilities.

Then I shall try my best as well! If we are to live together, I will need to do my part to ensure this household will be clean.

Or else!

Let's avoid that or else.

Would you like to know what or else means?

Under usual circumstances I believe I would have a pretty good idea of what that entails, however, please go ahead and explain.

We would come back to a rather dirty household. No matter where we go in the house, it will always be covered with items. We could not see the floor and everything will be covered in dust as well!

Wouldn't that be scary?

To be honest, I'm surprised. That's very tamed coming from you.

I would go into some more details.

Would you want that though?

Does it involve your cute spiders and snakes?

Nah, they're too adorable to go into that much detail.

Although, I couldn't say the same for the carpet.

Your room is carpeted?

No, not yet.

But it doesn't escape its inevitable fate of being covered with dust and other things.

Should I assume you're warning me to always wear shoes when entering your room?

Of course not, that would be rude! We shouldn't make a bigger mess in the household!

...Unless you want to.

In all our years of friendship not once had I previously suspected you were this disorganized, not something to be proud of, I am not exactly thrilled that I have difficulties cleaning up myself...What I mean to say is that I understand. But your ability to hide it for this long. Now that is impressive.

Is it really?

I'm not sure if I should be amazed that you think that way.

Considering your occupation, I suppose I made the assumption that you were an orderly young lady. Well, I'll go ahead and get started on preparing the meal. Otherwise, we may not be eating anything tonight.

What shall you make?

I'll go look around for the ingredients!

I thought we agreed on stir-fried fish noodles? Unless you've had a change of heart.

No, not at all.

Although, I wonder where do I get fish here...

That's simple. You fish for fish. There is a fishing pole in my residence, you may borrow it. While you take care of that, I can gather the rest of the ingredients. Does that sound fair?

I don't see why not.

Shall I go and go to your place right now?

It all depends on how soon you want this meal prepared.
