TDM 001: TFLU

( 1 ) After leaving the teleportation chamber, you are gently coaxed out of the hospital and encouraged to find a place to stay. Maybe you've had time to check out your A5 app. Maybe you're just settling in. It's cloudy, overcast, cold -- you'll want to seek out someplace warm. Also, your device is beeping. A lot. The tech on the island works, it just doesn't work right. You can't seem to send a message to the correct person. It's time for... Texts From Last Universe ( 2 ) What's this? Your bingo card has just been beamed to a stranger's inbox...?! ( sample A5 cards -- NSFW, may contain triggering content, please feel free to use/ignore as you see fit) ( 3 ) And now you're receiving messages from other users that they don't remember sending: Nice shirt. It would look better on my floor. 10/10 would ride it into the sunset. This user thinks you're attractive. u up? 🍆 ( 4 ) Once you figure out that the robots have been hacking your devices, it's no easy feat to track one down and demand they stop. "So The Augur wills!" they wail in a monotone. "So it is done!" Any attempt to actually contact The Augur and get back into the hospital will be met with beefy robot bodyguards, who suggest taking a gentler approach to fix your devices. If you know what they mean. Wink. (This is your overt kink prompt. Please label any threads accordingly.) Note: All prompts are optional. The theme for this TDM is "malfunctioning devices." They can be fixed by indulging in the squares on your cards. For the sake of the TDM, you can use one of the pre-generated examples or a wildcard from the kink list. This can be used as a free bingo square completion once you have been accepted into the game. Players are welcome to wildcard their own TDM prompts; we only ask that you try to stick to the theme. ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● N A V I G A T I O N

Food as what now? What are you talking about?

[theriomorphism]

I take it you're not familiar with what 🍆🍑💦 translates to?

[falsified]

I'd like to go back to forgetting.

[theriomorphism]

And now I want a peach. Or eggplant parmesan.

[falsified]

Have you seem either of those around?
I wouldn't mind a peach.

[theriomorphism]

Have you tried talking to the bots about that? Not sure what our supply system is like here.

[falsified]

They keep winking and it's unnerving.

[theriomorphism]

[A quiet chuckle at that, because yes, he'd noticed that too.]

Perhaps it's a programming glitch?

[falsified]

If they're winking after every line, that seems more like a deliberate choice.

[theriomorphism]

Or code. Who knows? I'm not very knowing in the field of mechanics and robots.

[falsified]

I just barely started learning about chemicals. Code and robots are out of my area of expertise.

[In both lives.]

[theriomorphism]

Mine too, so I'm afraid I'm no help. I'm a musician, not a technician.

[falsified]

I'm a high school senior. I'm really out of my depth with all of this.

[theriomorphism]

[And just like that, Lucas knew he'd be checking in on someone to make sure they were fine in all of this. Not a 'child' in the strictest sense of the word, but certainly not an adult in the larger scale of the word. And in a place like this? Bollocks.]

I can certainly see how you would be. Are you being bothered?

[falsified]

Not more than anybody else is. The robots don't seem hostile, even if they aren't especially helpful either.

[theriomorphism]

I'd prefer useless over hostile. Do you mind if I ask where you're from? Before here, of course.

[falsified]

[There's two true and vastly different answers to this, but she might as well go for the one that's true for the life she's currently living.]

I'm from Washington state in the United States of America on planet Earth.

[What a long form way of addressing it.]

[theriomorphism]

Really? I recently settled there myself with a friend. Lovely forests.

[falsified]

I'm really missing them right now. It's not like I ever went hiking or anything but it's so barren here.

[theriomorphism]

[He can't argue that. He's more in tune with nature himself, so the stark relief of the rundown city was... daunting.]

I can't blame you. I sympathize. I don't often travel where there isn't some bit of nature. Large cities were never something I was fond of.

[falsified]

Seattle wasn't too far away but even then we had trees and bushes around.

None of that around here.

[theriomorphism]

I was in Issaquah. A lot more parks and woods around. But yes, this place is very desolate. Makes me wonder what happened.

[falsified]

I was in Sammamish. They're right next to each other, huh? Wasn't expecting somebody so close.

I haven't seen anything but the robots and the people who were brought. Maybe it's been a long time since anybody's really lived here?

[theriomorphism]

It's not my native home. I'm Welsh. But it was lovely while I was there. At least there's a little familiarity for you here.

Robots, other unlikely souls, and rubbish. Not exactly a ball.

[falsified]

That's in Europe, right?

[Geography... hard...]

Nothing's trying to kill us. That's a small plus.
