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>

People really should've told me I should use family photos for dating apps ages ago.

I don't even know how that picture exists.

[hymnals]

Is this supposed to be a dating app?

[what's a dating app]

Well, it's a good photograph. You all look happy.

[garb4ge]

If that's how any of us had actually existed, maybe we would be.

[hymnals]

Ah ... sorry. I didn't mean to overstep.

[garb4ge]

...I mean, me and Allison are pretty much like that. Don't worry about it, man.

[hymnals]

I'm glad. Nothing more important than family.

[garb4ge]

...heh. You sound like Five.

[hymnals]

Eh?

Oh, the one who can time travel.

[garb4ge]

Heeeey, you remembered!

[hymnals]

Naturally! I listen when people talk! You said something about him being stuck in a teenager's body, too. Given what you said just now, I'm also assuming he's another sibling.

Big family.

[is he jelly? he jelly.]

[garb4ge]

That's right. Seven of us, in fact.

[hymnals]

Ah.

[envy DEEPENS]

Do you miss them?

[garb4ge]

Two of them are here. I think I'm obligated to say my favorite two.

[You know, because they're here. Ben is his favorite, though. He's been around for a lot.]

[hymnals]

There's probably a legal stipulation about that somewhere, yes. 'If trapped on unknown alien planet with part of family, must tell others that it is your favorite part of the family'.

Who are they?

[garb4ge]

Vanya and Ben.

If you've seen a sweet girl with a violin who looks like she's trying to blend into the wallpaper and a nerdy, breakfast-obsessed Asian guy in a hoodie, you've probably run into them.

[hymnals]

I see. I'm glad you've got them with you.

I have just the one brother, myself. Semi-deceased. It's probably good that he isn't here.

[garb4ge]

Semi-deceased.

We talking zombie, or -- what, poltergeist?

[hymnals]

I suppose 'zombie' is the most accurate term, though he's not a shambling, brainless corpse. Not any more brainless than when he was alive, anyway.

[garb4ge]

--Shit.

Yeah, I can see how that'd be a lot to deal with. And I know 'a lot to deal with'.

[hymnals]

Yeah? You have undead where you're from?

[garb4ge]

I mean, it wouldn't surprise me if we did. I haven't exactly asked around on the subject.

[hymnals]

Well, hopefully not. The curse of undeath is agony.

[garb4ge]

I'd assume. Lots of angry spirits as it is, yeah?

[hymnals]

Spirits beyond counting. I've pacified many of those in my lifetime. But they're a little easier for me to handle than the ones with bodies.

[garb4ge]

Like ... you make them shut the hell up and leave you alone? That kind of pacify?

[Shit, he's been going about this whole 'not telling anyone about his powers' thing all wrong, hasn't he?]
