NPC POST - THIS IS WHAT YOU CAME FOR
[ When the video feed turns on, both Tyr and a new face can be seen looking down into the camera. The woman sits back with a sly smile of sorts and levels Tyr with a sidelong glance. ]
Not bad for our first time, darling. Go on, then. Tell them what miracles you've brought for them today.
Not bad, is that truly the reputation you wish for me to have? Not bad, when I spent all morning worshipping you for all you did for us?
[He’s cute, isn’t he? He’s definitely cute, the way he says all that and then has the audacity to wink at her, like that’s what endears him to her. With a little grin, he turns towards the camera, focusing down. This is a post for the Wanderers, but it takes a lot to refocus Tyr from her.]
Given you all have a bit of a tendency to wander-- [DO YOU GET IT BECAUSE YOU’RE WANDERERS ha ha he make joke] --we thought we’d help you all keep in touch. Now, this is new, so don’t go breaking it your first day, hm? I’m going to be quite annoyed if our hard work is ruined from the start.
[ She rolls her eyes, entirely unimpressed by his antics and yet still smiling like a cat that doesn't even need to ask for the cream. ]
As though your lot aren't prone to breaking beautiful things. You could all stand to learn a more delicate touch.
[ She glances directly into the camera as she says the last sentence, perhaps speaking more to their audience now than the banter that seems to run between them. ]
It should do most of the work for you. Tap where you must to tell it what you want it to do, and then you can do or say whatever your little heart desires.
[ If she seems privately amused by the word "little," it's certainly just your imagination. ]
Laufey . . .
[Don’t be mean? Except he’s grinning, so. What is the truth, Tyr.]
Anyway! If you need any help, if you run into trouble, if you find you want to make some improvement-- although really, how could you? Have you seen who made this?-- do let us know, hm?
[And that’s that on that, it seems, because he’s turning towards the Best Girl, his voice quiet but so, so fond:]
--how long are you staying? Are we--
[That’s that on that, as someone’s finger comes down and closes it.]
[ OOC NOTE: it's here, friends! This is the official NPC post for From the Ground Up, meaning the network is now live for use! Your characters will all see this message at the same time, and then you will be free to post or contact each other at any time. Feel free to threadjack on this post at will!
Also, I forgot to mention this on the mod post, but everyone should set up an IC contact post in their character's journal. This mechanic is not optional, but we won't judge you if you don't use it at all. You can code this post in any way you want, and comments on IC contact posts are valid for AC!
There is also an optional log to interact with Laufey set up over here if anyone is interested in running into her.
Aaand speaking of NPCs, we're still accepting applications for Njord and Heimdall on this page if anyone was interested in checking it out. We would really love to have someone dedicated to playing these characters and haven't received any inquiries from interested parties for either of them yet, so if you were sitting on the idea, it's probably all yours after some discussion and whatnot! I'm (Faith) always happy to talk about this nonsense, so feel free to hit me up somewhere.
Otherwise, have at thee and enjoy the new network! ]

Many thanks for making this a reality. Maybe next time a giant dragon tries to eat us all we can coordinate ourselves better.
BUT... you forgot something also very important. This place needs music.

That being said, I wonder if there is a way to watch some drama on these things. I'm missing my dramas. Is there a way to get those working next?

(OOC: So, just a minor note. Her typing quirk is 'opt in' only, so don't worry. This opening is just to show how she usually types. If you don't opt in, I'll type normally because it's enough to make the eyes bleed. But you can assume she's always typing in this irritating scribble.)

That and Sora was never the best with technology.....]
I guess this means we can figure talking to each other, like the Gummiphones back home....? That's good! Since Namine and the others are in different Houses, it'll be easier to talk to them and keep in touch with this!
And let's see, they said to just 'tap it'? I should tap something to figure saying thanks.....which one?
[Be thankful he wasn't trying to text. That'd probably result in a lot of initial keysmash as Sora figured it. He's mostly used to answering calls when his Gummiphone rings and taking pictures with it.]
permavid!
There's no particular button for offering gratitude, but consider it received.
[ Hello Sora, we can see you. ]

i didn't think i'd miss using emojis so much
i'm never taking them for granted again

What is an emoji and why do so many of you seem eager at the prospect of them?

There is a function to alert your peers at a moment's notice, yes. The rest is rather an indulgence from your patrons.
[ An adorably spoiled lot, to be sure. ]
[ text ]
It's very generous of you to do this for us.
Thank you for going to all of this trouble.
[ And, you know, she kind of wants to ask what the whole deal is with the two of them, she's just not quite so bold as that. Instead, more to the point, ]
But I do have a question.
Is it always like this? We can see what everyone else sends?
[ She hasn't discovered any of the direct messaging yet, so this is A Concern for her. ]
permatext!
You are quite welcome. There are more discreet methods of communicating with one another if you feel you need the privacy.
[ It may be hard to convey her deep curiosity over why they might need such a thing through text, though. ]
