npc || amun [ @ hierarchy ]

( ping ping ping. or, y'know, whatever your phone chime is. the face of a man who looks like he's never smiled once in his entire life appears on your screen. you may have seen him before, while you were busy surviving a storm or battling reapers. no matter. you might as well bask in his impromptu company now, because his appearances are few, and his indulgences even fewer. )

Allow me to make this clear. For those of you who wonder still: I am the Hierarchy. You do not come to us; we summon, invite, and hire. Order is of the utmost importance if you wish to survive, and time is of the essence. Do not waste mine.

( behind him, movement. if you squint, you may notice strands of greying hair near the door, though the person it belongs to remains off-screen. )

Your personal troubles are your own. If you expected us to hold your hand, do think again; there are far greater affairs to attend to, so do yourselves a favor, and look for soulmates. We've prepared an application for you, easily accessible from your device's home page. Should you need additional information, perhaps it's time for you to practice self-reliance.

I will not be answering questions.

( and the feed cuts, abruptly, without greetings or a name. )

ooc note

► Amun will not be responding, though you're absolutely welcome to react, comment and discuss amongst yourselves on this post! Other NPCs might show up!
► This is, more or less, Tinder for Soulmates o/ You'll find the permanent post (aka phone application) right HERE! If you're interested, simply fill out the form and comment on the post, and bam. Browse, swipe left or swipe right, and have fun! This is not mandatory.
Forms and replies should be posted ICly (yes, even if it's located in the OOC comm -- you may choose one (1) thread for october's AC) .
► Another character may post in your character's stead. Additionally, feel free to have their Shadow influence their blurb!
► The application offers all the information your character needs to know! To recap: All that's required for another Restless to become your Soulmate is for them to enter your home, touch your Tethers upon invitation, and from then on, a piece of their soul will merge with yours, fortifying your Self. As a literal extension of your being, they'll easily gain access to your thoughts if you let them (or if you're careless), they'll experience your pains, fears, and joys on weaker levels, and their voice, touch and overall vicinity can become great soothing weapons against your Shadow. However. If two characters already share a powerful bond and one incidentally touches the other's Tethers, it's an accidental done deal. You may thank Naruto's player for this.
► You may have multiple Soulmates!
► If you have questions regarding the app, redirect them here!

Not surprised, I suppose.

But where my own kind are lacking, they ought be reminded of their duty.

Do you often find them receptive to being reminded? I can't think of a single person that I believe the king where I come from would like to hear that from.

No, they do not. But that is why they ought to be.

We could be here forever talking about how things ought to be.

We could, or we can remind them, every time, that they must be better.

Sounds like a good way to lose your head.

[ There are teeth behind the smile mirth in her voice, quiet as you please. ]

I am quite sure they will say so.
sunmon: (Default)

[personal profile] sunmon 2022-10-05 09:37 pm (UTC)(link)
They'll do so, too. [ sobering up a little. she genuinely doesn't want to see anyone get executed for treason or something around here. ]

[ Gilia, utterly comfortable in her death wish: ]

And yet, it must be done.

Plenty of people do just fine ignoring boyars and kings instead of antagonizing them.

[ wait hold up. ]

... Even during petitioning?

I doubt the King even reads the letters people send him.

[ the fu- ]

My people come to me, directly, on petition days. In my throne room. From every corner of the Isle. For hours on end. Often until the late of the night and I must house them for the evening.

[personal profile] sunmon 2022-10-06 02:40 am (UTC)(link)
To ... you?

[ oh.

hm.

all those things she said, or at least the general attitude she demonstrated towards Rich People.

[personal profile] seaboard 2022-10-06 06:11 am (UTC)(link)
Yes. To me.

[ But she sounds mirthful rather than annoyed. ]

As I said, my own kind need to be reminded of their duties.
sunmon: (pic#15364450)

[personal profile] sunmon 2022-10-07 03:01 am (UTC)(link)
Well, maybe you'll have luck getting through that the rest of us won't, then.

[ she sighs. it seems a foregone hope, but ... status is status. ]

[personal profile] seaboard 2022-10-07 05:03 am (UTC)(link)
I doubt it, from the look of it.
sunmon: (pic#14852469)

[personal profile] sunmon 2022-10-07 11:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah.

[ disappointed, softer. ]

They've got to be around here somewhere, though, right? Maybe they do take petitioners. Like you do.

We can try. Perhaps there is a day when it is done, a place.

[personal profile] sunmon 2022-10-13 01:08 am (UTC)(link)
I'll let you know if I hear of anything.
