1 April Edition TFLN

Welcome to Folkmore's Texts From Last Night meme, April Fools edition! See, Thoth learned about April Fools from reading Chaucer but enjoys that it's an ongoing thing. Thoth's switched things up. Initial messages (aka top levels)—all set April 1st ICly—maaaaay go to the wrong person! So not all hell breaks loose, replies carry forward with whoever you've reached, but you might be texting your innermost intoxicated or sleep deprived secret to someone you don't even know.

If you'd like to opt out of misfires, please include this in your top level (by prompt or overall). Otherwise, enjoy indulging Thoth's amusement and building some new CR.

This meme can be used as a branch off from our Test Drive Memes and be used as game canon or just for casual fun in the setting! You do not need to be in our game or be invited to play on our TFLN. This can be a great way to meet current players for future invites, get a feel for the setting, or just have some fun.

This can be used for samples on our applications and as spoons for players accepted into the game.

seriously? this place has such weird trials
though i notice most of them are like Be Friendly types, its weird
maybe were all secretly in summer camp

[punderworldgod]

Also had a sphinx show up in the bar one time when I was avoiding too much of the trial (or so I guess) hanging out down there.

I wasn't here for it, but I heard there was a summer camp, the summer before I showed up.

[licensetocrane]

oh yeah thats right i did hear about the actual summer camp
SUSPICIONS INTENSIFY

but srsly a sphinx?? did it have riddles?

[punderworldgod]

You can take the summer camp out of folkmore but not out of the star children?

A sphinx. Took up a huge ass amount of room. It asked uncomfortable questions you wouldn't want to answer upon threat of mauling.

[licensetocrane]

uncomfortable questions like about your life choices? or about stuff like 'are you sure you should be caught dead in that' and 'when was the last time you took a shower'

[punderworldgod]

Pfffft, haha, no about your life. Whether it's to share part of your background you'd rather not, the worst experiences you've been through, and so on and so forth. The real deep hitting shit that makes you consider whether the claws might be better.

[licensetocrane]

...is it just me or are all these trials basically about overshare?

[punderworldgod]

Not all of them, but so many. Good news: if you're someone who overshares, you can blame it on Thirteen now. Blend right in.

[licensetocrane]

lmao on the bright side i can think of a few people who could stand to overshare a lil more

[punderworldgod]

Oh yes, it is made for them. Poke and prod and trap them til they talk. It's definitely made me talk about shit more often. Probably even healthy for me.

fox mandated therapy
with a side order of more trauma if you dont behave
i mean
interesting angle
no worse than homeopathy

[punderworldgod]

Therapist-free therapy. Not certified and not recommended by the NHS.
The water ~*~remembers~*~ (the fox remembers) ha
Dumb thing might be it works sometimes, and I don't think it's the placebo effect.

[licensetocrane]

well some people can stand to get a bunch of shit off their chest ig
sometimes thats all thats wrong too much pressurised bottling

you live in england before this?

[punderworldgod]

Too true. You have to release the pressure to keep calm and carry on.

Indeed. You must be from somewhere with an England if you recognize the NHS.

[licensetocrane]

yep! new york new york
though mostly i recognise nhs from people complainin about it online

[punderworldgod]

I love that the NHS's reputation is so strong even Americans know of it.
Chef's kiss.
Though can't say you guys are doing better.

[licensetocrane]

oh hell no
i think theyre in a race to the bottom honestly
which department can fuck the people over more??
its pretty gross all round

[punderworldgod]

You weren't here when we lived alternate lives, were you?
Because funny thing is
In one of them I was a medical student
In America
I can remember first* hand how shitty it is

[licensetocrane]

[Yikes.]

okay thats kind of a hilarious memory to stick you with
i really wanna ask the fox why alternate lives was necessary?? like is it a 'hey guess what it could be worse' kinda situation?

[punderworldgod]

It really is.
Like no, I've never gone to medical school, but also I mostly remember so much biology shit.
It was like 'everything is possible, so does anything matter?'
With a kick in the pants if you thought not.

[licensetocrane]

seems like a weird lesson to teach either way
but im sure the fox is all wise and it makes sense to her
hey does that mean you remember the skills of your other self?

[punderworldgod]

All knowing, perhaps. Not all wise. Pretty sure wisdom is her dump stat.
Somewhat remember. Not entirely/as in depth. But hey, I'll take that.

[licensetocrane]

LOL im gonna remember that shade
but yeah i guess side benefit is gettin some new info on the side

[punderworldgod]

It's a great one. What's your dump stat?
Take all the side benefits you can grab. That's how I attended so many talks in uni. Free food.
