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.

I have a friend back home who isn't a mutant, doesn't have any superpowers, isn't an alien, but I swear she's the strongest person I've ever met.
No matter what happens, she always gets right back up. And even if she takes a lot of hits, she doesn't let that stop her.

[notreallyrobin]

most of my friends aren't mutants or aliens and have no superpowers but they do the same shit i do
except like
better

so to me it doesnt seem that special. all of the capes with powers are like, in metropolis and shit

[wiccant]

It takes heart to be a hero, powers or no.
And even if you're not the best at it (trust me I get that), you're still trying, right?

Not a lot of people have the heart to stick up for others like that.

[notreallyrobin]

youre awfully optimistic, huh? bet you wouldnt guess how many times ive been fired

but yeah
im trying
its weird and complicated but hey!
at least no one needs superheroes here right?

[wiccant]

I've only spent two years on the field, and through most of that, I benched myself. It's hard, and there's a lot of things I've seen that I'll never forget. A lot of things I wish I'd never have had to go through. The friend I mentioned fought through all of it and didn't once give up. I've given up more times than I can count. So if you're still trying, I'm sure that means a lot.

Sometimes the creatures from outside the fence break loose, and sometimes there are floods.
But usually, no.

[notreallyrobin]

i mean
i died
idk if i would have given up if i hadnt you know?
but hey im. here now. so we'll see ig

and--okay. cool at least my punching ability is useful somewhere, then! but maybe itll be good to have a break sometimes.

[wiccant]

( that hits. a sensitive nerve. an old wound he really didn't want to think about, but--he's sure it hurts her even worse. )

I'm sorry.
That you died.
I know it's a weird question to ask but are you okay now?

[notreallyrobin]

[ Wow, that's - really nice from some dude on the network. ]

yeah, im dealing
i mean
its nothign to be sorry abt really
it was my fault

but they fixed me up and everything real good. no scars, even!

[wiccant]

I don't know what happened exactly, but even if it was your fault, I'm sure it wasn't pleasant.

[notreallyrobin]

thats for sure

sorry to be a downer! it's just, hard to get out of my head right now. maybe ill get used to it soon

[wiccant]

It's okay, really.
If you ever need to talk about it, I don't mind.
I know sometimes it's even harder to talk to people you're close to rather than someone uninvolved.

[notreallyrobin]

noted
i mean
i'll def keep it in mind

im steph btw. idk if i said
billy, right?

[wiccant]

Billy.
Wiccan, in some circles.
Secret IDs don't mean much here.

( or back home anymore tbh. )

[notreallyrobin]

nice to meet you, billy. good to see other wayward teens with secret identities

mine's spoiler and my outfit is really cool

[wiccant]

Nice to meet you too, Steph.
You should show me some time.
We can compare costumes.

( he bets his is cooler. )

[notreallyrobin]

sure, but i gotta warn you, im damn good at sewing. made my own costume and everything

[wiccant]

Made mine out of magic.
It shows actual galaxies, not just galaxy print along the sides.

WHOA HOW SHADY

[notreallyrobin]

ok well not all of us have superpowers wise guy. and i have a really cool hood in the best color so there 🍆🍆🍆🍆

<:

[wiccant]

I made my first one by hand.
What color is it?

i lov it

[notreallyrobin]

eggplant duh
hence the emojis

[wiccant]

( oh good. considering what that eggplant emoji is usually used for-- )

My first costume was modeled after Asgardians.
Black, tan sides, red cape.
My current one is dark grey, red cloak, red outlines on the outside of the galaxies.

[notreallyrobin]

whats an asgardian
my first costume was an eggplant bodysuit and creepy cape and mask
aside from a brief stint as a more brightly colored persona, i still have the same costume

[wiccant]

Norse Gods?
Usually considered mythological?

[notreallyrobin]

so ur saying that theyre real where ur from and u made ur outfit after them
damn
i was just trying to look spooky

[wiccant]

The press called me Thor Jr. at first.
It was kind of flattering.
I was going for heroic over spooky.
