Feel free to use this post as an event catch-all for any misfires, island-wide broadcasts, or glitching Stone shenanigans you'd like your characters to get up to! Remember that the Stones of Farspeech do not currently have a texting feature...but that doesn't mean the screen they use to display Caller I.D. can't display text, on occasion. Bear in mind that this screen is small and therefore has limited display options.

If you have any questions, feel free to look over our OOC event post here, and ask any questions as needed!

Okay, so that's-- that actually does sound kinda like the situation back home. [Cool, connected heaven and hell planes she can understand.]

That is fuckin' wild, though, like... I mean, I don't know if the Heaven and Hell where I'm from got any dead people in 'em? Still got people arguing on that one. So that part's more the... the religious ones that we're not sure are the same as the planes we know are there?

[Once again, she finds herself wishing her nerd-ass cousin were here. Grant could probably explain this better.]

...Quick question, what do you look like?

[He doesn't SOUND like his flesh is an ever-shifting unstable mix of matter and black magic.]

[eudaimonikos]

An older white guy, right now.

[this is our reminder that Ted Danson is like 71 and still looks like that?]

In general, more of a multidimensional...thing.

[bitch4bitch]

Oh thank fuck. [A pause.] 'Bout the multidimensional thing, I mean. At least that's fuckin' normal.

Why go for the old white guy look, though? You doin' something with that before ending up here?

[eudaimonikos]

Oh, no, our vessels are assigned at random. You don't get a say in it until you hit senior staff - but honestly, I've gotten pretty attached to this. I don't think I'd have traded it out.

[bitch4bitch]

Man, that sucks. [Though she guesses that's not far off from how it works with humans?? Anyway.]

I guess it's good you're cool with it, if you've been stuck like that for hundreds of years. That'd sound like kind of a nightmare otherwise.

[eudaimonikos]

Not like it has arthritis or anything. The age is pretty much just cosmetic.

[bitch4bitch]

Well good to hear that. I mean, still doesn't sound like a great look to me, either, but maybe that's just me. Some people out there are super into old white dudes.

[eudaimonikos]

Well, I like it.

[Michael sounds a little nettled? Even though it's not, like, him?]

My hair is cool. I like the white, it's very multipurpose.

[bitch4bitch]

[Man, yeah, she can set personal preference aside for the moment. This guy seems chill, and also weirdly attached to his fake old man body.]

Y'know what? I'm happy for you. Granted, I barely know you, but it's good t'hear you like how you look.

[eudaimonikos]

Lots of you don't, I know.

[Of course he's aware. Insecurity about appearance is a low-hanging fruit; he swiped at it now and again in the fake Good Place, but even back then he thought it was cheap.]

Just takes some time, I guess.

[bitch4bitch]

Yyyeah, that kinda seems to be a thing? Generally speaking, I mean, not so much for me. [She KNOWS how hot she is, thanks.]
