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

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!

Deviled eggs are inedible trash, and I would only consume them if my other option was literal starvation. And quite possibly also offensive to some of our devil-kin friends?

[ AIDEN AGREES WITH THIS TAKE ]

I can't say I've ever tried one.

Consider yourself lucky.

They're hard-boiled eggs, cut in half with the yolk replaced with some repulsive mixture of yolk, mayonnaise, and vinegar. Often served as hors d'oeuvres in social gatherings. Come to think of it, I'm not entirely sure why they're called "deviled eggs" to begin with.

I see. I'm not a fan of things with strong flavor, so I'd likely not enjoy them, either. As for the "deviled" part.. are they spicy?
unseeming: (Default)

[personal profile] unseeming 2023-01-29 11:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Barely. I'm sure they're plenty spicy for many people, but those same people have probably never had a properly spicy dish in their life. Ahh, what a shame...

But you would be right, that's likely where the "deviled" aspect comes from.

[personal profile] veardant 2023-01-29 11:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Heh, you sound like a lot of people I know.

Unfortunately I can't handle even small amounts of spice. My sense of smell and taste are incredibly sensitive, so I wouldn't be ideal in determining either way.

You have my deepest condolences, friend...

I am a bard, and not a chef by any means, but I can't help but feel like the gourmands of the multiverse really missed on this one...

Don't worry, you aren't missing out on much.
veardant: (030)

[personal profile] veardant 2023-01-30 12:05 am (UTC)(link)
Well, you don't need to be a chef to be a good food critic, after all.

Good to know. I'll be sure not to include them on any party menus.

Planning on hosting many parties?

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.
unseeming: (twt_ihirocat)

[personal profile] unseeming 2023-01-30 04:57 am (UTC)(link)
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.
veardant: (016)

[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?
unseeming: (twt_luna_w27)

[personal profile] unseeming 2023-01-30 06:00 am (UTC)(link)
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.

EGGS ARENT OFFENSIVE TO DEVILS!!! VEGETABLES ARE!!!!!!!

[personal profile] unseeming 2023-01-30 06:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Eggs themselves aren't offensive to devils, no, but shitty eggs are offensive to everyone.

I HAVE NEVER HAD DEVILED EGGS BEFORE HOW ARE THEY SHITTY

[personal profile] unseeming 2023-01-30 11:50 pm (UTC)(link)
That depends entirely upon your opinion on mayonnaise and mustard, I suppose.

The eggs are hard-boiled, halved, and then the yolks are taken out to be mixed with those two along with vinegar, and then deposited back into where the yolks would be. Then usually sprinkled with seasoning. A bit spicy, but not at all enough for it to warrant the association with hell and devils.

THAT SOUNDS LIKE A FOOLISH WAY TO EAT EGGS

YOU CAN JUST EAT THEM RAW
unseeming: (Default)

[personal profile] unseeming 2023-01-31 04:30 am (UTC)(link)
... Eggshells and all? Or no?
bloodypowerful: (099)

[personal profile] bloodypowerful 2023-01-31 04:31 am (UTC)(link)
WHY NOT THE EGGSHELLS TOO?

[Power, please...]
unseeming: (twt_jinxiannie)

[personal profile] unseeming 2023-01-31 06:10 am (UTC)(link)
That's a very good question. Why not the eggshells too...?

[ Vaer, please... ]

AND ALSO THE CHICKEN. CHICKENS ARE DELICIOUS, EVEN IF YOU DON'T COOK THEM.
