Baby lately the plans we're making
WHO: Open to all Dualizens
WHAT: Your regularly scheduled NAPs event for the month
WHERE: Our Crazy Jane's Gallows!
WHEN: January 7-10
WARNINGS: Please use these if applicable!
Look at all of these bright, shining new faces! There’s even a few less bright, less shining faces - maybe even a few folks without faces - but hey, this city welcomes all types. Chances are, if you’ve just arrived, you're seeing some pretty crazy things, unless you're used to an eye-blinding amount of neon, robots, weird-ass technology, magic, and an omnipresent police force...and hey, if you are, congrats, you're gonna settle in just fine! But for the rest of you, the Head knows this is gonna be pretty overwhelming, right?
Well, since your quaint individual processing units are probably having a hard time, why not link up with another one? By which the Head means...
Hello, new citizens of Dualis,
and welcome to your monthly Network Adjacency Protocol~!
NAPs are a monthly community networking event similar to the Earth concept of speed dating. Two citizens (new arrivals and old hands alike) are placed at a table together with a handy cue card of queries to help break the proverbial ice. Ask (possibly invasive) personal questions and receive results - or ignore the card and yeet yourself straight into a brand new friendship, whatever works! But don't be too shy - you've only got ten minutes together, and if you just sit in silence for the whole ten, the Network Admins are likely to come supervise and try to repair the uplink through a mild shock to the ol' central nervous system. You might find yourself saying all sorts of unintended facts about yourself if that happens...probably better to just make friends, right? Who doesn’t like friends?!
Upon arrival, most will be ushered in by the Admins into the Gallery. Just ignore that large painting on the graffiti wall. Once inside you can begin to mingle and meet your fellow Dualizens, the city has also provided box wine, crackers and cheese as refreshments, a lovely Charcuterie spread laid out for any to sample while looking at the art and mingling.
This month there are two other lovely items for your amusement or horror! First off is a Karaoke machine, how the hell did they pull off getting every song you can think of with lyrics to all? Though, nearly every foul word is replaced with the sound a goose honking, have fun with that! Also, along with your normal note cards of questions you will find blank paper and kiddie packs of crayons. Make some art and leave it behind or leave it for your new friend!

"Damn, I know mobsters that aren't that lucky." Actually she'd consider the particular mobster she knows, her only true friend really, a very unlucky soul at the moment.
She gets up and smooths out her plain black dress. "Come on, show the new girl a night on the town." She'll try to be legitimately impressed by something. She can't even blame it on being in a strange place. She's just like this.
no subject
Right?
"You got it, honey. One night on the town. Hopefully the kind that doesn't end in the cops being called. Or maybe exactly that kind."
no subject
And hey, it might not get them out of trouble but they're fun to say.
She saunters after Domino, fixing her fingerless gloves and is ready to be led wherever. "So is everyone in this city from outside? Because that seems like an obnoxious waste of power."
no subject
"Not everybody, but probably most of the people who'll actually talk to you are. The whole place is a fucking nightmare, but I guess at least it's not empty?"
no subject
"Ah. A well put together technologically advanced society? More technologically enabled versions of your classic problems. But don't worry. I'll 'yes sir' and 'yes ma'am' anyone who might stop us. I'm sorta sick of people lookin' for reasons to get in my face anyway."
She has arrived on a steady keel of just 'done with it'.
"Hey, you know how this mod system works? They put it out there as a super common thing."
no subject
"Yeah, well. You don't draw attention to yourself, they won't mess with us. Or maybe we'll get lucky and they just won't mess with us anyway."
no subject
She could probably change her appearance to blend in with humans, but honestly it's a lot of tedious work. It's uncomfortable, and who the fuck wants to have hair for more than a day? Come on. The stuff is terrible. It takes so much maintenance.
no subject
"Could be worse, I guess. At least people will remember you."
no subject
She has to ask just to be sure. Usually it's bad news. But hey, what can she say? She leaves an impression. She should be proud of it.
