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 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.

[notreallyrobin]

i wasnt really there for the press
i got into it to spoil my dads plans
so that real heroes would catch him

and then i just. kept doing it

[wiccant]

I wasn't in it FOR the press.
My favorite team, the Avengers, had disbanded.
Someone from the future came to gather the next line of Avengers together to try and put the old team back.

We were a bunch of fanboys trying to bring back our own heroes, at first. Then the team kind of got bigger, and more stuff kept happening.

[notreallyrobin]

ohh i guess that makes sense
what was it like being part of a real team?? i was really just like, a sidekick at best. or an annoyance to the real heroes.

either way, i was never on a team

[wiccant]

It was nice for a while.
I made friends, found a brother I never knew I had.
We were all kind of different from most, so it was nice to be able to connect to people who understood what that was like.
The team that disbanded kept trying to break us up, but we were determined to do good.
But I lost some of my best friends, and a lot of others got hurt.
I quit for a while because I couldn't handle it, watching everyone suffer, the lives lost.
We all disbanded.
My brother was kind of pissed about it, and ran off to try and do stuff on his own.
Honestly it was all a mess. It was a mess even just before I ended up here.

[notreallyrobin]

oh holy shit
im sorry dude i didnt expect that to get so deep

i cant really top that though u already know i kicked it
i got fired a lot of times. and forbidden from wearing my costume a ton. and all of my friends were capes so its like
i dunno
i couldnt just stay in my room
and then i tried too hard to prove myself and died. so
i think

maybe the hero life is just a mess all around?

[wiccant]

No, it's fine. None of it's really a secret.
It is a mess. No one comes out of it in one piece, ever.
But I guess most people don't step into it in one piece either.

[notreallyrobin]

yeah, thats true
i dont think ive met any well-adjusted superheroes. or attempted superheroes, anyway

what do u do here
do u have a job or just ? ? chill and magic stuff

[wiccant]

I didn't do much for my first several months.
But I'm currently working with the perimeter guard part-time.
Mostly I babysit my boyfriend and the hoard of animals that follow him around like he's a disney princess.
