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

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!

Just as people call coffee "nasty bean water", I have a right to call tea "disgusting tea water". #fablenewbies

Wouldn't a better comparison have been soggy leaf water? Although I do enjoy tea myself. I can't say much about coffee. But everyone is free to have their own preferences.

[dejabrewed]

Both are completely accurate, but even so, people are free to have their preferences, but tea lovers are inherently wrong.

[rainswords]

Rather than stating they're wrong, might suit amiable conversation better.

[dejabrewed]

I'm all for conversation, however if people plan on disrespecting a drink and one's preference simply because one despises the taste, then they have no right to be complaining.

[rainswords]

While true, I never stated my own opinion. Does that still make me wrong?

[dejabrewed]

Even if you did, I’d put my money on you saying you prefer tea.

[veardant]

Or you could like both.

[dejabrewed]

You can. But one is still wrong.

[veardant]

Ah, you're one of those.

[dejabrewed]

Oh my, what gave it away? I didn't spend millennia perfecting the craft just for it to be dismissed with a simple comment.

[veardant]

I quite like coffee, in fact, I drink it often. I think if you found the right tea, you might even be able to enjoy both. The flavors are limitless.

[dejabrewed]

When someone bothers to find me the right tea, then I'll consider liking both. Not many around me bother to bring up the idea of tea anyways.

[localweirdo]

Can't say I have much of an opinion on coffee as I rarely drink it. I guess you're not much of a tea drinker, are you?

[dejabrewed]

Never had it.

[localweirdo]

Oh.

Then are you willing to try it? You never know if you like it until you do!

[dejabrewed]

I'll be willing, but I'm clueless.

[localweirdo]

Then shall I show you how to properly brew tea? It takes some skill but if you do it right, it'll taste great!

[Nevermind that she may or may not do it right but...!]

[azuresong]

Heheee❤ You sure do love your coffee! I just didn't know you had such strong opinions on tea, too!

[dejabrewed]

It’s not so much that I have a strong opinion on tea, it’s only things I hear often working at the cafe. Rude customers deserve being called out.

Besides, a lot of people here have offered to help with my knowledge on coffee. I'll take that over being ignorant on the subject.

[azuresong]

Well I have tried both and really enjoy them! I don't think after having your coffee that I could decide which one is better.

Maybe they just haven't experienced what it's like to have really tasty coffee!

[dejabrewed]

Do you need to flatter me every single time?

Possibly not. It's one of the reasons I plan on making Cafe Millennia a space here.

[azuresong]

I'm sorry, I just can't help it! You opened my eyes to so many new amazing things to try, and it makes me very happy.

... Are you really!? That's so wonderful to hear! I'm sure it will be a huge success.

[maipokerface]

I still drink both and can't disagree. I know a few people though who'd get real offended.

[Okay, mostly one person to be fair.]

[dejabrewed]

I hear the coffee insult so often that it drives me up the wall, so I understand. I used to be one who got irritated hearing it, but
