ik this is going to sound like an episode of 60 Minutes that never got aired, but I have smelled worryingly like blood for the past week or so.
Please pre-emptively cool it on the wild guesses, though. God forbid any of this winds up vaguely sexual like Keith's thing (F, buddy). No, I haven't even been injured lately. No, it's not my time of the month. No, I'm not actually a murderer. I woke up one day, sniffed foul air, and have been increasingly ill since.
Does anyone have any idea what I can even do about this? bc I feel like I've tried literally everything but bathing in bleach.
Oh, actually, for ppl who don't want to interact with my TMI, what are your favourite movies? I work at the theatre in Mirth now and I'll get a 2% raise if I bring in more traffic, so I kinda have a vested interest in knowing what kinds of things you'd wanna see screened. Set can't pay for everything yk lol.
Thanks.

[ It's the kind of network message that pops up in the quietest, darkest part of the night — when it's just a guy and his thoughts and anxieties in an all-too-silent house. He's surrounded by dumpster-quality furniture and a cat-emblemed pillow that veers on possessing suspicious origins, not that anyone can see any of his living quarters through text. ]i don't want to panic anyone but it's pretty late and it's been a few days and i don't know, maybe i just need to calm down but
does anyone have an explanation for what happens when your soulmate kinda ... goes missing?[ Steve really wishes there was a proper instructions manual or something. Not that he'd read through it because who has the time for that, but. It'd be something.
The line goes quiet for a moment, or maybe Steve's said what he's needed to say, before another message pops up from the same username. ]Honestly, shit's going exactly the way I thought it would. Thought maybe Munson would stick around, thought maybe we were, you know, starting to become friends, and you'd think the soulbond thing would count for something but noooo, he just split. Found a way to get out of here, left his phone, went back to Hawkins and didn't have the decency to leave a goddamned note.
Even he couldn't stand the pathetic loser that Steve Harrington's become.[ And just like that, the message is sent for all to see before the line really does cut off. Embarrassing. ][ ooc: in case it isn't clear, the last bit of text is courtesy of steve's very unpleasant shadow who has adopted an edgelord personality circa livejournal 2001. ]

I'm interested in traveling to the Hinterlands to investigate the fallen star and perhaps collect a shard or two. To that effect, I'm looking for one (1) partner to take along with me.
I would prefer that you're combat-capable in case something goes awry, but it is not a necessity. If you're good at sneaking around, that's even better.
Comment below and let's work something out. If you have already been to see the fallen star, I'd greatly appreciate your recollection of the events.
EDIT: I'm good now, thanks. Feel free to comment regardless if you'd like to share your experience with collecting the star shard.(( ooc: for clarification, i'm happy to take multiple people on separate rounds of this notice board quest! this isn't to game the system and get mulitple rewards, i just want Interactions™ ))
(( ooc 2: i am a terrible planner. LMAO. in the interest of not drowning myself with multi-track questing, i'll be editing this post and cutting off participants. thank you for responding ;_; ))

hey everyone!
i'm Uzumaki Naruto
um in my world we give family name first
so you can just call me Naruto!
listen…
i have an important question that i'd like to hear your opinions on
some people doubt this place is really the afterlife
and if we’re actually dead
but let’s say there’s a chance we can all return to our own dimensions, alive
…would you want to?
or would you prefer to stay here instead, permanently?
it’s kinda personal, so i get it if you wanna use the
uh
anonymous
thingy
just don’t ask me how to switch it on
because idk (that means i don’t know)
oh also
if anyone needs help with anything
or wants to tackle some missions together
i'm your shinobi![Sorry, Sasuke and Sakura. Naruto forgot the “keep our profession/backgrounds a secret” rule. (And already broke the rule several times over.)]

We've all had some time to settle in. Hopefully everyone's holding up all right!
For those of you I haven't spoken with, my name's Sakura. I'm both a doctor and healer and I have a little ad hoc clinic down by the docks.
（ a helpful location ping follows this. ） If you ever find yourself needing medical care, please reach out and let me know. There's at least one other person here with medical experience that I know of as well, but I'll let them speak up if they want to make themselves known — and I'm happy to collaborate with anyone else, none of us can be everywhere at once.
（ paging ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
terraria, party of bird. ）As for my reason for addressing you all... I'm looking to keep blood on hand for medical emergencies, transfusions and any surgeries that may be necessary. If anyone is willing to come down to the clinic and give a donation, it'd be very appreciated. I promise it only hurts a little! And you'll even get a candy afterwards! While supplies last.
Those with O-negative and O-positive types would be ideal. If you don't happen to know what your blood-type is, I can run a test for you.
Thanks everyone!
（ she's almost finished, and it seems like that might have been the last thing... but a few minutes later, she clicks the feed on again: ）I'm still looking for information on anyone who's undergone the soulbond as well. Purely for research purposes. You can reply anonymously if you'd like, or privately if that's easier. I promise anything you say will be kept confidential.

I found some curious things, when dealing with the dead who were left behind in the Oakwoods.
Firstly, they appear to have died while filled with horror. I have also collected samples of a blue substance found around and upon their bodies. I am certain that I am not the only one who took note of this.
You are welcome to what I gathered. I do not care what you decide to do with it.
Additionally, in comparing the bodies of the explorers to those who were slaughtered by the mounted warrior -- their deaths are notably different. Deaths within un-deaths, this is ridiculous. To my knowledge, the components of a soul are universal. Regarding the explorers: I found no sense of soul, nor any of the components. For them to lack is ominous, but may also amount to nothing more than an oddity of the realm.
They are empty, and that is all I know.
At this time, I am only beginning my considerations. I will continue to deliberate for your sakes.( OOC | While Set is here to Report On It, any characters that went poking around the explorer's bodies would be able to find blue dust that causes their Shadows to go "YEAH LMAO NO"!! Set's personal responses will be delayed, as I'm still tagging the event!
Feel free to take this in whatever direction you'd like. Did your character uncover something? Are they interested in something that happened during the event? Are they considering anything based on Certain Experiences They Had In Canon? pepesilvia.gif )

( 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!
