swipes: a friendr meme

Any new arrival to the city has seen the ad for a free app popping up on their devices, and anyone who's been around for a while probably has a profile and has used it a bit. It's almost universal in the city - Friendr, a friend-finder and/or dating app. If characters choose to install it, they will fill out a short bio and parameters for what they're looking for, upload a snap of themselves, and then proceed to browse for matches. This is a typical swipe-left-or-right type app. The default color scheme can be seen below, but the Friendr app has a wide variety of themes, so feel free to customize with colors and patterns as you see fit, but do not remove the credit line out of respect for the creator of the code.

Peace and harmony are wise interests.

What is ramen, though?

[flowlikewater]

Do you seek them yourself, friend?

It is a noodle soup from my world. My favorite, obviously.

[pietistic]

I do. Does not everyone in a way?

I have never heard of it before. What is it like?

[flowlikewater]

I have crossed paths with some who do not. Some people are just drawn to chaos.

There are many variations of it, but it's essentially a noodle soup with meat or fish broth with different toppings mixed in. Nothing has ever quite compared to the ramen in my hometown.

[pietistic]

I suppose that is true. I always find it a bit unfortunate, they rarely seem like the type to ever know happiness.

I see. It sounds interesting. There are a lot of foods that people here seem to know, such variety is very new.

[umbrastaff]

What are those squiggles?

[flowlikewater]

Squiggles?

Ah. No, that is my native tongue. Is the translator not working?

[umbrastaff]

Doesn't seem like it. I love how it looks, though.

[flowlikewater]

At least you do not have to bear witness to my handwriting.

I take it you do not have a country called 'Japan' in your world, then?

[umbrastaff]

It sounds like it could be a mess with those intricate lines + bad handwriting

Nope! I've heard a little about it, that's all.

[alldenim]

Dog parks but not dogs?

[flowlikewater]

I suppose the 'owning a dog' wasn't quite as implied as I had thought when I wrote it then?

[alldenim]

Did kinda sound like you were just going to dog parks to watch 'em.

[flowlikewater]

I have definitely meditated in a few at this point. I'm sure it's quite the sight.

[alldenim]

You in that armor all the time?

[muskeg]

... okay but is there a place for good ramen around here?

[ he avoids anything to do with his own heritage, except ramen. that is the exception. ]

[flowlikewater]

It is not quite as good as back home, but there is a little shop in the center of the city that is quite good!

[muskeg]

... would you mind texting me the address? I haven't had good ramen in... well a really long time. It wasn't a very popular dish where I lived back home.

[flowlikewater]

[ Genji texts the address along with a screencap of the map with it circled because he's helpful like that. ]

Of course! Here you are, friend.
>Ah, I can understand that. Where did you grow up?

[muskeg]

thank you, fuck, you are a lifesaver. stomach saver? i don't know.

uh, Texas-Lousiana boarder. and northern Canada. they are more into bannock and weird stews than they are anything like ramen and kimchi.

[apt666]

A fan of Miyamoto Musashi?

[flowlikewater]

Indeed! You are probably the first that has known the source.
>A fan of Japanese literature as well then?

[apt666]

I am a fan. I read a lot in university, though my area of expertise is more rooted in history.

[flowlikewater]

Interesting! What is your specific area of study then?
>I have only started reading recently, in the scheme of things, for my own peace of mind. Education was never really 'important' when I was younger.
