npc || amun [ @ hierarchy ]

[nightnpcs]

( 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!

[ context clues mean she doesn't have to ask about dissing, at least. ]

i can do both

[fessus]

Okay, so prove it

Pick a conversation topic.

[telepathy]

for what
why

[fessus]

To prove you can put effort into a convo? I'm doing literally all the work here

[telepathy]

my people dont use these
and your not doing all the work
i have to interpret what your saying
and ask questions

[ the latter messages are staggered — an afterthought, born of a defensive curdling awareness that noctis has already spotted that she has no skill at this. ]

[fessus]

I'm not getting on your case about your tech skills bc that's obviously at a 0, I'm getting on you for your social skills.

[ Maybe that was too blunt. He rubs at the back of his neck as he frowns down at that phone, sighing out softly. ]

Listen asking questions to understand a topic is fine if you're like actively learning smth but if you're calling it stupid then you can ask me smth else to keep the convo going.

Like

"What's your name" or "where are you from", right?

[ she drags a hand down her face, annoyed. it had felt like she was trying to move the conversation by sharing something about herself — about her people, about their technology. that's not good enough either??? how do people do this?? and when do they learn?

but she's also determined to get it right. she wants to be better at this, even if it makes her feel like shit to drive her head against this wall. better that it's not in person, at least. ]

fine
where are you from
