npc || amun [ @ hierarchy ]
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. )
► 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!
I think she means she's a queen
SERIOUSLY???!!?
[ Oh my god she's in the presence of royalty and she didn't even know?! That is sO FREAKING COOL!! ]
queen who sits a throne of LIES.....
Yes! Sort of?
See, my father is the Pope, so he leads the State of the Church which is the country's supreme authority.
Really I'm only considered a real princess in Romagna!
My brothers both have positions in the church, but women can't join the clergy, so I'm the only one who inherited that kind of title...
still a queen tho
wait
are you serious, women aren't allowed to join?
that's so messed up like
OH NO WE HAD A DAUGHTER LET'S TAKE AWAY ANY WAY FOR HER TO MOVE UP THE SOCIAL LADDER
I'd be so pissed if I was you!!!
no subject
I don't think it's bad... It's just the way things have always been?
A princess is very high on the social ladder too...
But I could gain a title through marriage, of course.
no subject
in 1498 maybe
and it's all well and good if that's what you wanna do
but you shouldn't have to tie yourself down just to move up in the world
there are so many badass ladies in my time that would have N E V E R stood for that
and honestly you're not there anymore
so!
if you had a choice, would you want to get married and have your status tied to a man
or
would you want to carve out your own place in the world
hypothetically speaking of course
no subject
Um
Get married?
no subject
which is fine if that's something you want to do
what's something you enjoy doing? something that makes you happy?
no subject
Oh, and there's this new trend among nobles called ballet! I really like that a lot.
no subject
you'll have to sing for me sometime, I'd love to hear!
maybe we can do a duet sometime 🎵
no subject
What's your vocal range? I'm a soprano.
[ this is historically inaccurate the term should be "superius" but she can't always be on top of her terminology differences!!! she remembered not to say lyric soprano at least since opera doesn't exist in 1498. ]
[1/2]
hold on one sec
[2/2] ➜ video
Okay, can you hear me? This thing's on, right?
text ➜ video
[ thank fucking god she's not actually from the Renaissance and knows how to use a phone or this would be a nightmare. as it is, it doesn't take very long for her to match the video feed, her blue eyes big and round, looking down at the screen. ]
I think that's right... Hibiki? I can hear you!
no subject
Wow, you picked up this technology thing quick! Hold on.
[ She holds out her arm, giving a more wide view over the feed. And now that she's looking at it... Hibiki pauses, blinking a few times. ]
Did you turn the video on? [ Because uh. The resemblance is downright uncanny. ]
no subject
[ she raises her own camera to eye level and beams. ]
We look like we could be sisters, don't we? [ she giggles. ] What a strange coincidence!
no subject
Well, I always wanted a sister! [ She laughs. ] The fact that we seem to be into some of the same things makes this even better! I bet we could swap places and nobody would be able to tell.
