TDM 001

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.

Ah, another Voidsent?
Or at least someone with a particular sense of humor
I can appreciate that

My major issue is the assumption that everyone relies on pickup lines when the direct approach is usually much more effective
heirtrigger: (awk)

[personal profile] heirtrigger 2020-05-21 11:49 pm (UTC)(link)
no, just a tiefling that hasn't heard that term before.

i wouldn't say i'm particularly skilled at humor, or at least not at making it happen purposefully. i'm working on that, though. slowly.

i suppose you're right, it certainly removes the frustrating guesswork.
beloveddaughter: (and proud of who you are)

[personal profile] beloveddaughter 2020-05-22 12:54 am (UTC)(link)
Well, color me the same, since "tiefling" is certainly brand new to me

As for the guesswork, it seems the machines running this place have made it their goal to eliminate as much of it as possible on their own, as well
Here I thought I was a direct sort of person, but clearly I have a lot to learn
heirtrigger: (I'm listening)

[personal profile] heirtrigger 2020-05-22 01:09 am (UTC)(link)
ah. well, it amounts to 'someone back in the family tree screwed around with someone from hell,' and the present person lost the genetic lottery.

you'd think that on first glance, but it seems more like it's compounding it to me, what with making people say things they didn't mean to strangers and thus forcing explanations and whatnot.

it is. strange, and frustrating, to say the least.
beloveddaughter: (but i want to see you bathed in sun)

[personal profile] beloveddaughter 2020-05-22 02:28 am (UTC)(link)
Well, you seem pleasant enough for what I'm sure other people have called a demon
Scarcely seems like losing anything to me

Perhaps it's time we start saying things we do mean to strangers, then?
heirtrigger: (Flat stare)

[personal profile] heirtrigger 2020-05-22 02:55 am (UTC)(link)
more devil than demon, if you're the type to pick nits, but i'm more preferable to Maratris. or Mara, if we get on well enough. the loss is... a loss of sanity and peace of mind, i suppose, due to the people who don't take well to our existence, to understate things.

perhaps it is. you seem like you might be rather enjoyable company, so far.
beloveddaughter: (we are the golden face of lovers)

[personal profile] beloveddaughter 2020-05-22 03:06 am (UTC)(link)
There's a race of elves in my home city-state treated much the same way and just as unfairly
I don't claim to understand it on a personal level, but I can empathize with what you must be going through, and I only hope that this city finds you in a more accommodating way

My name is E'dolha -- though you're more than welcome to simply call me Dolha if you'd like
It's a pleasure to meet you, Maratris, and I'd be glad to meet you further
heirtrigger: (Not impressed)

[personal profile] heirtrigger 2020-05-22 03:18 am (UTC)(link)
it is appreciated, thank you. already having one favorable touchstone this soon is quite the luxury compared to prior experiences.

E'dolha, a pleasant name for a matching person.

i would enjoy that, much more than dealing with this junk phone's glitches.
beloveddaughter: (but i want to see you bathed in sun)

I'm afraid I'm still getting used to the layout and gathering places in this city, but once I get it all sorted out, I'll be sure to seek you out
Ah, one moment


[and she sends along a selfie, though the composition is much worse than this.]

So you have something to look for
heirtrigger: (Is that so?)

[personal profile] heirtrigger 2020-05-22 04:41 am (UTC)(link)
of course.

ah, i look forward to looking for this.

...for you.


[shit, fuck, panic over wording. send a similarly awkward selfie and scream internally.]
beloveddaughter: (and proud of who you are)

[personal profile] beloveddaughter 2020-05-23 01:58 am (UTC)(link)
It seems like we'd both be a little hard to miss
But it also seems that we'll both be doing fairly well here after all, hm?
