I saw this at another game and it amused me enough that I decided to steal it and post it here for the amusement of our cast.

So, here you go~

SHOUT YOUR CONFESSIONS MEME!!!

1. Post your character shouting a confession. ALL CAPS LOCK, ALL THE TIME.
2. ICly react to others' confessions.
3. That's it. That's the meme.

It's called electrokinesis. It also means I make one hell of a battery charger. My cell phone never dies.

Or, you know, anything else electrical.

[likeavirtue]

[ There's a small laugh. ]

That's one hell of a handy trick.


[ He gestures to his right leg again. ]

This thing, it's useless when it's half-charged. Even less so when it's down to its last ten percent.

What I wouldn't give to keep it charged indefinitely.

[ For one, it'd stop reminding him that his leg is a synthetic because his real one was blown off on a betrayal disguised as a botched mission. ]

[electro_kinetic]

[ She beckons him closer with an amused roll of her eyes, and gesture to his leg. ] You want me to take a look at it? I built these gauntlets, I might be able to improve your battery life. Or you can just come find me and let me feel you up when you need a charge, your call.

[ Nori doesn't say it as a come-on; it's just her humor, and it's brassy at best. ]



[ ooc: we so need to have them meet for real and have this conversation, y/y? ]

[likeavirtue]

[ That gets another laugh out of him.

Congrats, Nori. This never happens. Like, ever. ]

Let's stick with the first option. I'll - uh. Let you have a look at it next time. Improved battery life sounds promising.


[ ooc: YES YES A THOUSAND TIMES YES ]

[electro_kinetic]

Your call, man.

Next time you take it off, let me know. Or do you need it charged now?

[likeavirtue]

Noted.

Although, you know, I'm a little curious to see how it works.

[electro_kinetic]

I put my hand on your leg, channel electricity to its battery, and stand back up. Essentially. Sure, it works faster if I have direct access to the charge port, but it's not strictly necessary.

The small things aren't usually all that showy.

[likeavirtue]

All right.

That doesn't sound too ... weird.

[ He pulls up the right pant of his trousers, revealing the synthetic leg, a greyish translucent limb with its circuitry constantly adapting to every minute motion Kennex makes. ]

Wanna give it a go now? It probably won't need much of a charge, as I'd done it just this morning ... but without a proper charger, it's going to become pretty obsolete in a matter of 24 hours. 36 at best.

[electro_kinetic]

[ She crouches down, obviously comfortable with the way these things go, and considers his leg, laying her fingertips against it. ]

Now, I'm assuming this casing is not a Faraday Cage, in which case we will have a slight problem, but it doesn't seem like it is one. And man, we can definitely improve on a 24-hour battery life. Shit, my cell phone has a better one than that.

[likeavirtue]

[ Wry laughter. ]

When you're on the go from 8 until 10, sometimes 11 in the night ... yeaaah, it wears down on the power. Maybe if I was working a desk job, it'd last a little longer.

My partner recently got me a new leg, but I didn't have a chance to test it out before this goddamned ship abducted me. So, it's old model or bust.

[electro_kinetic]

Yeah, cop hours. I get it.

I'll look you over and see what work I can do on the thing while you don't need it.

[likeavirtue]

Thanks, kid. I'm John, by the way.

[ He nods, grateful. ]

And you know, not all cops are bad.

I know it's a thing cops say, but I'm serious. There are some really shitty ones, and there are some who aren't.

[electro_kinetic]

Yeah, I know. And I don't normally carry grudges with cops--but there ain't a whole lot of you in New York that like us.

Name's Noriko. Ashida Noriko, but mostly you can call me Nori.

[likeavirtue]

Fair enough. I'm from the West Coast anyway.

Maybe there's a difference.

[ There's a small amused look. Welcome to Kennex's poor attempt at humour. ]

Good to meet you, Nori.

[electro_kinetic]

Yeah, I made it out to Colorado once. Never went any more west than that unless you count Japan.

[likeavirtue]

And that's so far west, it's actually east.

[ He chuckles. ]

I've been meaning to head to Japan for years. Home of the best ramen, after all.

[electro_kinetic]

Oh wow, really, you're gonna go with that?

You find me a kitchen, I will make us both good ramen. The problem is finding me the kitchen.

[likeavirtue]

[ There's an actual laugh this time. ]

Yeah?

Okay, Nori, you're my new best friend.





Maybe we can replicate a kitchen.

[electro_kinetic]

Yeah, if it could do that and fail at soup, I'd have to have words with whoever built this boat.
