network social #1

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!

I think I can safely say it wouldn't.

[ Or...would it...could be fae magic bullshit. ]

[localweirdo]

Have you tried it?

[inceptor]

No, so what?

[localweirdo]

Then you don't know if you'll get rid of the app.

[inceptor]

Why should I believe you, anyway?

[localweirdo]

Because anything can and might happen in a place such as this!

[inceptor]

[ ...He really hates that she's right about that, and that he has to try it now.

...A while later: ]

Tch. I knew you were lying.

[localweirdo]

But it's worth a try! At least now you know it doesn't work!

[inceptor]

Serves me right for listening to a foolish human.

[localweirdo]

Oh?

Then please do tell me. If you are not human, then I am safe to assume you might be a spirit of sorts?

[inceptor]

You assume it must be one or the other? That’s rather narrow-minded.

[localweirdo]

Well, there is one more option but...

I highly doubt you are an adeptus.

[....Are you????]

[inceptor]

What if I told you I was?

[ I mean…he’s probably closer to an adeptus than a human or a spirit. ]

[localweirdo]

Are you really?

I wasn't aware that you were also from my world if you know what an adeptus is!

[inceptor]

There's an unfortunate number of people from Teyvat here. It's not that surprising.

[localweirdo]

Is that so?

Well, all the more reason why I should restart my business here! Especially when they might find some comfort in knowing they're going to be here for a while!

[inceptor]

Oh? And what business is that?

[localweirdo]

A funeral! I'm sure it'll make them happy knowing that there is someone from their world here and help them out should the time come when they meet their timely end.

that gagtag almost seemed real

[inceptor]

You lay the dead to rest for a living?

...Ha! That's great, actually.

I could do some more if you want

[localweirdo]

I'm glad you think so!

Although, I do wish people realize that it's not a scary profession. If anything, it's something that needs to be talked about more often!

i always welcome more

[inceptor]

I agree. Your work is a welcome reminder that there is one less despicable human walking around in the world.

Don't you mean you welcome more *mor*a? Ehhh??

[localweirdo]

Goodness, it certainly seems that you don't have a very good view of humans do you?

eyyyyyyyy

[inceptor]

What gave me away?

I just see humans for what they are. Nothing more, nothing less.

[localweirdo]

I wouldn't say that. I like to think we are a lot more resilient than you think!

We can be a messy bunch but at least we can be the fun kind of messy.

[inceptor]

Ha, you have a point. I'm having the most fun when I'm messing with humans.

[ That's what she meant, right?? ]
