netherwork | 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!

Oh yeah? Anything interesting yet?

（ she hasn't gotten out much for... obvious reasons, but she's curious! ）

[Curiosity is a healthy thing to have. An active mind is healthier than a passive one.]

What Stygia lacks in refinement and beauty, it makes up for at the heart of their commercial industry. The harbors here serve as the ultimate hub of trade and commerce. I clung to the shadows as I watched the merchants peddle their wares and watched in silence as fishermen lined up along the docks in hopes of a good catch. There are many artisans there, many of which seem more talented than the next.

[Ironically enough, this bizarre city somewhat reminds him of home.]

Venture there during the afternoon. You won't be disappointed.

What, all this effusive praise and not an offer of an escort? Here I took you for a gentleman, Mr. Augustine.

（ she's teasing him, it's fine!! ）

[Oh, that wins a chuckle from him.]

Judging from all the replies you've received thus far, I doubt you will have time for a tour.

[Although, he certainly wouldn't be opposed to playing tour guide.]

Will I have to book an appointment with you?

Let me check my schedule.

（ there is a VERY exaggerated flipping of pages sound that comes across the microphone, and then: ）

I have a Sunday free in about three months, or we could go tomorrow?

[Oh, Sakura! If only she could see him rolling eyes.]

Tomorrow it is. [He suggests with a faint chuckle.] We'll meet at the docks and fear not, you're easy to spot.

[She does have pink hair and all.]

I'll see you then. Let's go fairly early — around eight?

（ she's literally only calling that early because normal people think it's early... ）

Eight in the morning or eight in the evening?

[He can ironically do either one but he has to ask.]

You're fortunate that I don't mind sunlight. Most of my kind doesn't fair well within the sun.

Oh — I'm sorry.

（ what even ARE vampires, honestly. ）

Which would work better for you...?

[Eldritch horror monsters of the night? Hell, sometimes he doesn't even know.]

The evening, I suppose. Though, I'm not opposed to watching the sunset.

（ wait just one moment... ）

Actually... have you seen the sun yet? At all? I thought this place just had an uncannily long night cycle, but...

[Wait, now that she mentions it--]

Do you think so? Honestly, I was wondering if the thick overcast is permanent.

[If so, he has nothing to fear. Thank goodness but isn't that disastrous for everyone else?]

I'll need to synthesize a vitamin D supplement...

（ excuse her, she's grabbing a nearby notebook so she can start scribbling things down. ）

Ah, Mr. Augustine! Tomorrow at eight PM! I've got a few things I need to take care of between now and then, so I'll talk to you later!

（ annnnd off she goes because she's just like this as a person tbqh. ）

[Synthesizing vitamin D supplements? Well, she's certainly dedicated to her craft. Augustine was about to say something until suddenly she suddenly vanishes. It seems that the young doctor is a ball of energy.

Goodness.]
