Hugpile meme!
We all love our characters, even if we sometimes take a great deal of glee in dropping small mountains on them. Thus this meme, where they can hugpile and cuddle to their hearts' content.
You are in a vast room that seems somehow familiar to anyone who was around for the slumber party. Things that happen over here won't necessarily disturb what's happening over there, with a couple of semi-screened areas for semi-privacy and all the pillows and blankets and soft (or bouncy) surfaces you could ever want. Refreshments are available - energy drinks, Livian's candy, Roy's popcorn, and whatever else you'd like to dream up. There are even some cuddly toys left over from the slumber partyand the octopus is still here.
~Rules!~ (shamelessly stolen from the sleepover meme)
When starting a thread, put what you're doing, who's involved, and any warnings in the subject line (e.g. 'Pillow fortress || OTA || tooth-rotting fluff'.) Also use the subject line in case a thread develops in such a way that new warnings are needed.
Within an open-to-all context, threadjacking and multiplayer threads are HIGHLY ENCOURAGED.~~ Threads locked to a few characters are allowed too.
Continuity is variable, and likely unique to each thread. What happens in-meme stays in-meme unless you want it to apply somewhere else, and snuggling up in the Rinzlerpile doesn't mean you can't also snuggle in the Userpile somewhere else.
This meme is safe. Like, really safe. Highest level of physical harm that can happen in this area is shoving someone or getting whacked with a pillow; anyone who attempts harmful physical contact (including unwanted disc meddling, I'M LOOKIN' AT YOU, CLU~) is quantum-teleported out of reach before the harm can happen, ~as many times as it takes~ for the message to sink in, and everyone goes in fully aware of this. Viruses and glitches are contained in akatamari ball quantum sphere which suppresses their infectious capabilities; such spheres can merge with other spheres, and non-viruses can go in and out of them at will (and only perceive a mild static sensation if a virus tries to infect them).
Which makes this a good place to thread with folks your characters don't often get an IC chance to thread with.
No pressure. This meme isn't expiring any time soon. Feel free to take your time!
Of course common rp courtesy applies here -- no godmodding, be mindful of one anothers' comfort levels, warn as needed, ask if uncertain of something, etc. Which we all do because we're awesome.~~
Other than that, HAVE FUN! |D

Re: Couches near the edge || OTA || warn as needed
Might think of instituting something like this once in a while from my office. I have the space, and it looks like it helps.
[Have a slightly curious glance. He hasn't met you on-Grid, program, but he was warned about yellow and gold. But, Esme was gold, and is okay to be around. Ugh. Confusing.]
Are you a good-yellow, or a stay-away-from-yellow?
Re: Couches near the edge || OTA || warn as needed
I like to think I'm good-yellow. [You get a nod of greeting, since a User-style handshake is a little awkward from this angle.]
Clu 1.0, hacking program, at your service.
Re: Couches near the edge || OTA || warn as needed
I would think that 'good' and 'hacker' were an oxymoron.
[Slight headtilt.]
Any relation to the Clu people keep warning me about?
Re: Couches near the edge || OTA || warn as needed
Well, we're not too good. [cheeky wink] But most of us're alright. There's just a few real glitches who give the rest of us a bad name.
Least that's the way it was back when I was originally online. Might be different now, for all I know. [shrugs]
[The smile fades somewhat at the question and he sighs, nodding.]
Unfortunately, yeah. He was named after me. Guess Flynn meant for it to be an honor, but... yeah, that didn't work out so well.
Re: Couches near the edge || OTA || warn as needed
I get loomed over enough just walking around. You can sit if you want. Plenty of room.
Re: Couches near the edge || OTA || warn as needed
Anyway, now that you know my name, whats yours? Don't think we've met on the regular Grid yet.
Re: Couches near the edge || OTA || warn as needed
Re: Couches near the edge || OTA || warn as needed
If I can help out with setting up, let me know? I can't exactly do the big stuff but detail work I can do. Or maybe help securing files once you get started.
Re: Couches near the edge || OTA || warn as needed
I could use that help, actually. I'll have a lot of sensitive information to store, and I know glitch about securing any of it. You could drop by to visit me while I'm setting up, if you want, once I get finished with construction and start furnishing.
Re: Couches near the edge || OTA || warn as needed
Sounds like a plan. Don't want anybody getting into the kind of data you're likely to end up with, after all.
Re: Couches near the edge || OTA || warn as needed
Re: Couches near the edge || OTA || warn as needed
Quite a reversal from what you're used to, I take it?
Re: Couches near the edge || OTA || warn as needed
The Grid is very different to the system I came from. Hackers were something to call the monitors about, not invite to set up your domain security restrictions, for starts.
Re: Couches near the edge || OTA || warn as needed
Take it you didn't have any hacking programs that were native to your system, then?
Re: Couches near the edge || OTA || warn as needed
You kidding me? In a home system like mine, Security's provided near-daily updates just to keep you fellas out. No fancy infiltrators working for our side, not in a Grid that small.
Re: Couches near the edge || OTA || warn as needed
I was written in a small system like that, actually. Course, that was cycles and cycles ago, and even then it wasn't exactly typical.
But yeah, Flynn only really needed me for missions six or seven times a cycle, at most. There was alot of downtime in between, so I wound up helping out anywhere in the system my function set could be useful.
Good practice for living here, as it turned out; not alot of hacking to do when you're confined to one system, after all.
no subject
Glad you've settled in so readily. Guess that means you won't be one of my clients, eh?
no subject
But yeah, barring some unforeseen disaster? Probably not. Might stop by anyway sometime, if you're not busy. [wry smile] Though the chances of that happening are pretty slim, given this system.

no subject
[Folds his arms behind his head and leans back against the sofa, relaxing.]
Everybody needs a break from the crazy now and then.
no subject
Oh, I think I'll have plenty of things to divide my attention from work as well. [That smile's a bit smug, Kip, if not a little sappy too. Eden's still on his mind.]
no subject
So I've heard.
no subject
Meh. Not as comfy as my (hypothetical) couch.
no subject
Yeah. Generally speaking, nothing beats something you've tweaked to your personal specifications. Though I'm generally able to get comfortable most anywhere.
Good thing, too, as I spent more than one rest-cycle curled up in a niche of Outlands-type terrain back in the day. Or in my tank control chair.
no subject
What's a tank?
[No MCP invasion forces in his system, and he hasn't encountered the Grid's more notorious forms of transport yet.]
