it's time to judge everyone

IC HOT OR NOT
(get in here newbies you're invited too)
Through some miraculous meme happening, characters in the game will have 1-5 photos of themselves uploaded onto some imageboard type gallery. Even you, serious characters who wouldn't usually involve themselves with these kinds of shenanigans. Especially you.

1. Post your character, give a pic or two! Don't post anything too spicy (a.k.a. don't be nsfw, guys, that's for the game proper)
2. Character rate each other from 1 (not) to 10 (hot). Feel free to add additional commentary, this is a texting app, after all!
3. React ICly! Flirt, tease, or shit talk. It's all good.
4. If you're uncomfortable with "hot or not", you can substitute it to "cute or not". Nice or not? Maybe???
5. Have mercy on people with slow connections and make your photo embeds a reasonable size! Use the code below to link photos, and change the width number accordingly if your pic is a bit small (or still too big) at that size. There's also codes for uniform image sets here!
<img src="YOURURL" width=300>

i'm so happy

[ he is so endeared. is this the power of lamento? ]

[innkeeps]

[ Is it? Or is it just the tired energy of a 30-something who can't be bothered?

Either way— Bardo laughs, on his end of things. It feels genuine. ]

stop, stop

that's too much, even for me

[nodus]

What's too much? The amount of love in that sticker?

[innkeeps]

love, huh

don't butter me up too much. nothing good comes out of making an old cat blush

[nodus]

Probably, but it would be an interesting sight to see.

[innkeeps]

so that's the sort of stuff you like?

forget it. the blush'd look better on you

[nodus]

But I'm not the type to blush.

1/2

[ It takes him a bit to respond back; he's scrolling through these posts to attribute a face to these texts.

Hm. ]

don't provoke a contrarian too much

[innkeeps]

10/10

[ ah, now he's just giving ye xiu shit. ]

(1/2)

[nodus]

Provoking people is what I'm good at.

(2/2)

[nodus]

[ oh? that makes ye xiu smile. ]

You win, but since I don't blush -



Hopefully that's enough for now.

[ Call this him being anachronistic, call it him being old, call it him being pessimistic, but there's something intolerably sad about this, somehow. Bardo knows it's not meant to be (the text itself is hopelessly endearing), but substituting a cute drawn fox in lieu of an actual expression seems.

Hm.

Bardo just chalks it up to culture-shock.

(he's projecting.) ]

i'll take what i can get

practice that pose for when i actually meet you

[nodus]

[ bardo may not be as far off as he thinks, but then again -

it could also just be culture-shock. ]

Haha. I'm not as cute as the fox so it might not work if I do it.

[innkeeps]

it's worth a try

[ The sad thing is, Ye Xiu is destined to be charming. What a burden, huh. ]

for now, enjoy the attention from the others
you might as well

[nodus]

Maybe I'll try, just for you.

[ it's only a burden when you realize he's the kind of guy who doesn't really go away once you're a part of his life. ]

Oh, don't worry. I'm enjoying them a lot.

I hope you are too. 🌹
