OTA TEXT | SO WHERE Y'ALL AT????

[sometime on the third, all the names of people who were sent on group missions (obviously au names only) will be released onto the network for IC knowledge. everyone will be able to see this post if they glance at the network, whether they're in the city or away on groups!

however annotated next to the groups will be the information that group one is going to pesgare, group two is going to respartum, group three is going to bosuma, and group four is going to magatus.]


if you didn't get a call to arms here's the copypasta:

How would you like to help us help you out? Your observation period's up and I want you on this particular assignment. You'll be fine, you're probably not going to die, and we'll be able to monitor you from here. We need help. You've got the skills needed even if you don't know it yet. I know it and that's what counts.

You'll be working with a group (wish I could give you the names, still putting the lists together), but your assignment partner is [INSERT RANDO HERE]. Should you choose to accept this assignment, you will need to meet at the [LOCATION] and we'll go from there.

You'll be rewarded for your success, of course, but this is only if we have an agreement. Do we have an agreement?

hard to do work when you don't have info right
carly's more useful than expected
but he said don't get distracted

anyway
the more you know and all that


[and that's the message!]

[ OOC: please use this as an open mingle for whatever purposes you need! unless directly addressed, baren won't be responding. he just bugged carly for info and shared it. if any adjustments need to be made, lmk!

edit: almost immediately after the initial post goes up, Matt Murdock's name will be edited out into black squares. ]

Or considered you to be truly valuable.

[ . . . . Ah.

A...hah.

There's no reply to that for a good two or three minutes, shocked to silence despite knowing he young man had a prosthetic, like her. But perhaps she hasn't expected to hear it quite that way, perhaps she's still not entirely over her own loss to confront that so immediately. But it's been ten years, and so after allowing herself a moment to decompress, she nods to herself and comes back to it. ]


No, that's true.

[ There are many, many other things she wants to ask - if the boy in his visions has both arms? Because the one in hers does, and it rips her apart every time she sees it. But that would be insensitive, they're hardly that close. ]

Even so, I hope that you can show them what you can do, James. Be that doing their mission better than they could expect, punching him, or getting more out of that ransomed phone.

[ Do "they" even control that? She's not sure, based on what people have told her, what she read in that one woman's guide? But hell, that's beside the point. James, at least, has someone he can blame. she would have killed for that, and as such, ]

I believe in you! Call me a karma fangirl officially!

So which place are you at again? The mole people one? The forest? The ice place? The beach?

Hot and underground and they had to walk, apparently.

But oh, that means you're with Elliot!
frostythehitman: (somebody help me tame this animal)

nachetanya: (and the Captive Fool)

[personal profile] nachetanya 2018-02-08 02:43 pm (UTC)(link)
He's my little cousin. Red hair and a pleasant smile. He's really dependable!

[personal profile] frostythehitman 2018-02-09 06:59 am (UTC)(link)

nachetanya: (Ragnarok)

[personal profile] nachetanya 2018-02-09 03:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Seriously! I know the similarities a little more distant but I've known him my whole life
frostythehitman: (somebody help me tame this animal)

[personal profile] frostythehitman 2018-02-12 02:54 am (UTC)(link)
[ You say that, but he has never actually interacted with Elliot before, so all of that is lost on him. ]

when did you realize each other was on the network
nachetanya: (Ravages of Marxism)

[personal profile] nachetanya 2018-02-12 02:57 am (UTC)(link)
He was on long before more so him and Zack welcomed me on, actually.
frostythehitman: (somebody help me tame this animal)

frostythehitman: (there's something inside me)

[personal profile] frostythehitman 2018-02-12 07:14 am (UTC)(link)
damn seriously

Seriously! I've known him as long as I've been alive, so I'm lucky him and Ellie both were on the app when I came on
frostythehitman: (there's something inside me)

[personal profile] frostythehitman 2018-02-13 07:13 am (UTC)(link)
okay 1
it doesn't bother you that all 3 of you are trapped on some hell app
and 2
do you seriously call him ellie
nachetanya: (Journey to Un'Goro)

[personal profile] nachetanya 2018-02-13 05:04 pm (UTC)(link)
It does bother me but I think I like it more than the idea of him being stuck here by himself? Or any one of us individually.

Ellie was his childhood name he doesn't like it now oops.
frostythehitman: (without a sense of confidence)

[personal profile] frostythehitman 2018-02-14 06:06 am (UTC)(link)
oh i see
so i HAVE to call him ellie now

[personal profile] nachetanya 2018-02-14 06:24 am (UTC)(link)
Don't abuse it! He really doesn't deserve to be teased too much.
