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 . . .

How does a sword take a picture without hands? Can you keep your timer going strong?

[okitactless]

I'm a person too look

[And he'll just go ahead and post a picture of himself with his sword right here on this very public network post, this is fine.

More importantly:]

what timer

[nachetanya]

How are you the sword if you hold yourself?

On your phone though! For a picture.

[okitactless]

I'm both!!
sometimes I can disappear though

[THAT had been an... interesting discovery.

But perhaps more surprising (given Recolle's ever-growing population of people with weird powers) is the fact that a millennial/Gen Z-er is such a grandpa with technology.]

pictures have timers???
how
why

[nachetanya]

No cameras do? In your phone?

[okitactless]

they do???

[WHAT

Give him a second to fumble around on his phone and find out--]

oh!! they do!!!

[nachetanya]

I know!! It's amazing modern technology, just like the flip phone!!

[okitactless]

yeah!!
flip phones were really great
I miss buttons

[he's 22]

[nachetanya]

I don't think I ever had one tbh?

[okitactless]

really??
what did you have
always smartphones??

[nachetanya]

I got my first phone when I was sixteen and it was a dated smartphone at the time, yeah.

[ I mean, it was 2012, so... ]

[okitactless]

oh...
my mom only got me cheap phones for a long time
because I broke them a lot

[Given how he didn't know phone cameras had timers, this probably isn't surprising.]

[nachetanya]

[ to be fair, sixteen is (these days) a little late to get a first phone. Still, she laughs on her end and, ]

Oh no! Really?

[okitactless]

yeah
I got in a lot of fights so they always fell out of my pocket
I got one stolen one time too

[...]

I never thought about it before but
what do you think people who steal phones do with them
do they call people in your phone

[nachetanya]

I'm sure they could sell them, right? Just erase some stuff and re-sell it?
