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.

	Friendr

Code to post your character's bio is in the textbox below.

There are definitely worse things to do than running in a group. I can't imagine it would be too hard. Actually, I talked to Tony Stark and he's going to create the game if I can get people to map the area, so there's that.

It's going to take him a day. Man, I wish I was that crazy smart.

And I'll definitely keep a look out for them, then. If I find any, I'll let you know!

[bythehand]

Just a day? Kind of glad I'm NOT that smart. I'd either get bored too fast or I'd have too much going on.

Definitely plenty of places around here worth running through. And if it helps get something made, we might get more volunteers.

[11calls]

Yeah, I definitely can get bored sometimes now. I spend way too much time on google when I do.

Cool. When I get the specifics from him, I'll let you know! It'll be fun. You go places and catch computer pokemon. I know we have actual pokemon here, but keeping them for real just seems really cruel to me.

[bythehand]

Yeah.

I'm not much for pets anyway. Sometimes it's work just keeping myself and my friends alive. Not really in a good place for something that needs me to keep it alive every day of the week.

[11calls]

I'm better than that, and if you want some pet time, I do have a dog you can come chill with.

[bythehand]

I might take you up on that. Met plenty of cats. Not so many dogs.

[ For a given definition of chill, anyway, he would chill with a dog. ]

[11calls]

[Alex is flipping to video, and there is a large gray face with blue eyes sniffing the camera for a minute.]

This is Apo. Short for Apophenia. He is very chill and snuggly.

[bythehand]

[ He doesn't know how to make animal assessments. Jyn sent him a picture of her cat and he was kind of like "what's that thing called". But as far as he can tell, this seems like a nice dog. Most dogs have seemed nice, when he's seen them. ]

Apophenia's a hell of a name.

[11calls]

[Alex is just going to shrug.]

He reminded me of a friend back home who said it to me often enough that it became a joke on the show.

[bythehand]

Does it mean something?

[11calls]

Yeah, it means basically, seeing connections between things when there isn't one. It's like your mind mixing patterns to make something that makes sense to you. My friend, he uses it to explain things like ghosts and hauntings and stuff like that.

[bythehand]

Huh. [ Friendr is helping Finn's vocabulary one day at a time, basically. ] Kind of nice that there's a specific word for that.

[11calls]

Yeah. I think a lot of the best words for random things aren't in English though.

[A beat.]

If we're speaking English here at all.

[bythehand]

[ Language is the weird no-longer-existent barrier that keeps on giving. ]

It all sounds like Common to me. Only language I know.

[11calls]

Yeah, it all sounds like English to me. I also speak french, but it doesn't sound the same.

[Alex speaks french because Canada.]

[bythehand]

Maybe some of the scientists with the Perimeter Guard know what that's about. We escort them out sometimes, but I don't usually ask about what they've been up to.

[11calls]

Maybe I'll go poking in there. It's been too long since I've done any poking.

[bythehand]

Does poking come after walking up and asking, or does that get wrapped up in the label?

[11calls]

[That makes Alex laugh.]

All wrapped up in the label.
