It's a real nasty oversight of this network that because your full name is on it you can't do vagueposts, isn't it? 🤔 I guess it's more like Facebook that way, but you also can't sock at all either! It means you need to be honest!

🤷🤷🤷

I guess those heart stones make it seem like that's what they want anyway!

So two things, and unrelated, I promise!
1) I'll be 22 on the 17th, but because my best friend isn't on this app, I'm still not sure what I want to do about it all. It feels weird to include her with everyone else or exclude her because she doesn't get why I have mandatory community service now, among other things.

2) Is anyone immortal or immune to swords or something? ♡ It's weird how that's a real question now, isn't it . . .

Considering that my SO didn't have the app for two months after I got it, I can understand that far too well.

[nachetanya]

[ . . . . Yeeesh. ]

Four and counting now here . . .

[angealwings]

Yeah. Kind of feels like lying to them, even when you're not.

And it's not like the app is something you'd wish on people.

[nachetanya]

Or would you?

I thought people who aren't on here don't have normal souls?

[angealwings]

A few coworkers used to have the app, but no longer do. A coworker of Zack's used to have the app, then didn't, and now has it again.

I'm not sure souls are *that* easy to give and take away.

[nachetanya]

Oh really? I hadn't heard about that from Zack...

[ Her bad. Hmm. ]

You can siphon them out into rocks, so I don't know what to think.

[angealwings]

I think it's pretty recent. Cloud's a customer of Genesis at the Open Book, so I got to find out from Genesis. Who... also got the app. It's kind of an interesting month, I guess.

You can... what?

[nachetanya]

Those heart stones.

But oh? Well! That's interesting!

[angealwings]

Ah. We only got a little bit of that, out on the missions. Though they did affect us some.

I guess sometimes that's how it works. So it's not *im*possible for her to get the app, but if it'll mean remembering things that upset her, or being in more danger...

[nachetanya]

Oh no, it's got to be possible! Do many other people I know have come on for it not to be. It's a strange thing to wish for, but I think it'd be better for both of us...?

Again, being honest!

[angealwings]

I must admit that, even though I am extremely worried, considering all that I've seen these two months, I'm really relieved that my SO got the app. It'd have been a difficult choice between effectively lying or letting go of something that has been true and important for a very long time.

[nachetanya]

There's more options, I think.

But that does make it much, much easier!

[angealwings]

Options are usually good. What do you have in mind?

[nachetanya]

I still tell my friend everything. I didn't sign a contract to not do that.

[ She doesn't Get it, but she sure tells her. ]

[angealwings]

That's a good thing.

Gen was upset that I missed Valentine's Day. Because no matter how many times I tried to explain to him after, he forgot.

[nachetanya]

Mmm!

Yeah, that's not good. Honestly, she's not really worked out what the thing that got me arrested was.

[angealwings]

It's a good thing that you didn't have to stay in for long.

How are you doing after that? I'm guessing no more loss of control, at least?

[nachetanya]

No more where it mattered, no. But I've barely used them outside of trying to work them out.

[angealwings]

Do you get into many situation where it's appropriate to use them?

Just asking.

[nachetanya]

Noooot really.

[angealwings]

One, that's a good thing, and two, then it isn't surprising that they haven't been out other than when you've been working on them specifically. So that's good, too.

[nachetanya]

Yeah.

It's come out before I learned how to focus them, but that's the whole point of it!

[angealwings]

You are learning. That is the important thing.

[nachetanya]

Mmmhm!


👏 👏

[angealwings]

Is that applause? Why did I deserve applause for?

[ Uh.

Most of his texting before the app was with Genesis and Zack, so while he's aware of emotes, he's still trying to figure out how they work socially. He's good at the whole communication thing, but, well. Not flawless. ]
