The Network: May, An Inauspicious Arrival

The Watches Everyone who arrives in an unorthodox way and eventually shows up at the Coven for 'orientation', will receive a strange, watch-like device compliments of the Coven and Parliament. Miss Nessie or one of the welcome wagon crew will give characters a run-down of how to use the various functions and they are encouraged to test them out for themselves. It would be good for them to get in touch with their fellow Mirrorbound, of course! Fourth wall characters will not be able to make their own posts in the communities, so they may use this post to make "network posts" of their own by top-leveling. The log post is right over here.

That's really cute, buuut...

No! Sorry.
:P this is, hmm... someone's tongue sticking out, see?
There are other letters you can use, though not every one.
This one is a big smile

So there's some kind of logic to it... Weird, but okay. I get it.

How about

:O

Looks like his mouth's open.

[evanescent]

Yeah! You got it! That's a shocked face.

Good job! (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧

[did she throw a more complex emoji in there on purpose? yes.

anyway.]

What's your name?

[sparkstrikes]

Thanks.

[ ......

she....

What kind of steep learning curve bullshit is this!!! 💦]

Lightning.

You?

[evanescent]

Lightning, huh? Interesting name. A little familiar...

[That makes an uncanny amount of sense. Was she going to meet another similarly socially awkward but in a charming way person at some point and round out the weather-related pattern? A Rain? A Squall? Who knew.]

I'm Aerith, at your emoji-explaining service. 🌸 Nice to meet you!

[sparkstrikes]

Familiar? I don't think we've met before.

[ ... ]

And yeah, you too.

[ ..... ]

:)

[evanescent]

Oh, we haven't!

[Is she going to clarify... who knows.]

You remind me of a friend.

And you're getting the hang of it! :) If you need any other help, feel free to ask me.

wrapping! :)

[sparkstrikes]

Yeah, will do.

[If she ever needs to learn how to smile, she knows where to go!]

Thanks again.
