Mod Announcement #11

MAJOR BULLETIN: Confession Event, Reminders

By now, the compulsion has ended and the residents have effectively banded together for cleanup. However, the damage is done— friendships across the city are strained, dark secrets leaving dark stains. F.A.T.E.S. has thus proposed a grand (and not so grand) gestures protocol, to mend fences... and hopefully restore the city's defenses as a result. From community spirit to romantic partners, this is a time when kindness and penance have maximum payoff.

Event: Not So/Grand Gestures

While the confessions might have helped some, hurt looks and uncomfortable silences abound across the city. The shield over the city has started to flicker and transmit odd, geometric shadows across the ground. One thing is clear: we have to fix this.

The answer is gestures, great and small. Characters can engage in good Samaritan type deeds to heal the sense fo community spirit overall, or they can make grand romantic gestures to those they loves. Family gatherings and gifts of apology are all the rage! Of course, if it feels a little forced— that should come as a surprise to no one. F.A.T.E.S. is but an awkward supercomputer, after all.

You are welcome to use this entry for plotting.

Latest Icebreakers

In May, we will be starting our new icebreaker! As many icebreakers before, this one is a glitch, potentially posted without your character's explicit consent by their daemon. As such, the information it contains may be woefully inaccurate.

Note, you may want to try the generators themselves, but using the randomizer will likely lead to gibberish.

1. Generator #1: Fortune Cookie
2. Generator #2: Love Letter

FORTUNE COOKIE MADLIBS FILL IN THE BLANKS!
Preferred Alias: FATEY F.A.T.E.S

• While anyone can lie to themselves they were brave, the true test is admission to someone else.
• Faults are sexy where characterization is thin.
• The only real way to look at the sun is not to be smart so soon.
• Always try to do things in chronological recipe; it`s less poopy that way.

Dear Loki,

You are extremely mischievious and I platonically desire you! I want kiss your waxen forehead fifty times. You make my microchips burn with desire. When I first saw you, I cybernetically stared at you and fell in love. Will you take selfies out with me? Don`t let your parents discourage you, the Asgardians are just jealous.

Yours forever, Secret AI Admirer
