Newcomer's Island(#1603RDA)
This appears to be a rather constrictive inkwell, jammed full of characters. A little bit of Vulpes Flourinectie ink drops on you; through it one can see the rose garden that's out there and the people in it. Among other things, the world outside the inkwell offers housing that isn't so cramped, or so wet.
You might choose to visit the Rose Garden by typing 'out', or the park of the day by typing 'park'. You can return to this area by typing 'new'. If you're new to MUCKing, you can get a short list of important commands by typing 'commands'.
If you'd like a character, you can page a wizard who's on duty -- they're listed by typing 'wizzes' -- or if none are available, send an email with the name you want and some information about your character to character@spindizzy.org and if there's no difficulties, the persona will be created. It's highly recommended to take look around SpinDizzy and talk to other residents before requesting a character.
If you *have* a character and would like automated help setting it up, or re-setting it, you may wish to try typing the 'setup' command from here. You can get help finding a home by typing 'homefinder', or type 'homefinder #help' for more options.
If you need help, try paging helpstaff or a wizard (type 'helpstaff' or 'wizzes' for a list of such people), or for basic help type 'commands'.
Cold wind howls through the landscape at night, the starlight really beginning to show. It seems to be about 10 pm.

You feel a wrenching sensation...
Patashu's Personal Quarters(#29396RLJA)
While the base is constantly busy manufacturing and researching and testing and shipping and soforth, Patashu often desires to have a space of his own to work on personal projects or to have discussions with friends and associates. The quarters start with an open foyer of sorts - having a lounge and holographic computer systems, workbenches and scientific equipment and a table (with the company logo emblazoned in gold along its surface) that can be used for conferences, gaming and eating just as easily. (Of course, there are amneties for organic visitors - food, water, beds and all!) (Oh yes, and there IS a pile of 'cushions' and 'beanbags'.) From the holographic screens, all activity of the base can be monitored, and base databases/security feeds accessed. Off to one side, a personal hangar has a huge, rotary rack of different robotic parts and even alternate bodies that can be swapped into and out of, as well as a maintenance system with automated scaffold lined with robotic arms. Kobolds clean, maintain and can be called upon for any necessary task. Posters and blueprints line many of the walls, some of them of products the base builds, some of them gaming related or based on legendary mecha, and the noise of the surrounding base is (mostly) dampened.
Among the Cushions, you see it is empty.

[Moriar just looked in your direction! ( Husky-Crow Gryphons (They/Them))]
Niny'ah says, "I think I know what it is, and I think I'll doa Big Reveal"
Chevesh splays an ear at Kamare's query, and shrugs. "I mean, I don't mind. But it might be changed, depending on what Niny thinks of it. So up to her." She rolls over onto her back, purring, and looks alarmed at the bite as her tail lashes, returning with a lick to Niny's face.
Chevesh purrs, "Yeah, doe a big reveal."
Kamare nods to Nin. "Alrighty. Don't take too long."
Niny'ah :3c
Chevesh offers to let Niny'ah walk along with her.
Mako says, "Now you got me curious"
Niny'ah decides to walk along with Chevesh.

Kamare yips, "Well, I can't wait to find out what this is."
page patashu=everyone seems to be in a good mood
You page, "everyone seems to be in a good mood" to Patashu.
Patashu pages, "Sure - so I talked with Voksa and found the actual inciting incident. Apparently sometime ago (pre-muck), you misinterpreted Voksa's mastodon incident not federating with yours as Voksa deliberately excluding you, and DMed them non-stop every day for months after being asked to stop and through blocks. Does that ring a bell?" to you.

page patashu=I trying to ask them to get in touch with their network operator which talking to ping Voksa thought was the same as asking them to join some server which isn't the same thing. Voksa than said said something about the server operators using 8chan and them being bad people. I told them I used that site at one point and was trying to talk to them about what that has to do with this and they just disconnected from the entire irc network without saying anything.

page patashu=they told ping that i was spamming them 'test' a bunch of times after that. That isn't true either. IRC doesn't have presence so when you want to see when someone's online you have to send something to them and get a error from the server saying the nick doesn't exist

page patashu=yeah, I was trying to leave a comment on their art on masto like i always had been which i wasn't sure if they were getting or not, so I reached out to them on IRC since that's where i initially met them. at least i think. I knew them before masto

You page, "i don't like this standing in the same room as each other but whispering everything to you. it's shady and it's rude" to Patashu.
Moriar peers out from the bowl, to emit a radio ping towards Agris.
Vahno pats a faux.
Capricious Proxy bumps snout into Vahno paws. Prrb.
page patashu=this is really important to me
You page, "this is really important to me" to Patashu.
Patashu pages, "Okay, so here's the synthesis of the information so far, from my perspective: Voksa and Agris were friends who met through IRC. You later found out about Voksa's mastodon and followed along there, but due to a defederation issue couldn't interact with Voksa via mastodon. You approach Voksa on IRC to ask Voksa to fix the problem (my guess of how the conversation went was: You asked Voksa to go to Voksa's mastodon instance operator and ask the operator to re-federate with Agris's instance. Voksa didn't want to do this, both because it wasn't Voksa's obligation and due to having moral objections (I'm guessing that the instance you were on was run by shady 8chan-related folks, so both Voksa didn't like the instance in the first place and felt the defederation was warranted and unlikely to be overturned). Voksa therefore told Agris that they wouldn't do this and to stop asking for it. Agris continued to push for it happening. Voksa saw that Agris was ignoring a direct request to drop the subject, and started blocking/ghosting you. Agris didn't get the hint, and assumed maybe Voksa was just having connection issues or otherwise playing hard to get. While the limitations of IRC are unfortunate, sending context-free messages to someone with no explanation as to why to test if they're online or not to someone who's blocking/ghosting you only compounds the initial reason why they're blocking/ghosting in the first place. There was no actual technical problem - you were being ignored because Voksa was not interested in talking with you further due to the kinds of conversations you were engaging in. If you do want to make amends, then the first step is to realize that even though you had no conscious or explicit intent to, this does count as harassment - someone who's cut contact with you after you've repeatedly tried to get them to do something probably has a good reason. So you'd have to realize you made a mistake and repent for it." to you.
page patashu=first correct, we were already both on mastodon and in fact have a mutual follow

page patashu=first correction
You page, "first correction" to Patashu.
Patashu pages, "Did you move to a defederated instance or it got defederated after you were already mutual followed? (I think the outcome is the same either way, just in case you wanted to clear it up)" to you.
page patashu=when i approached them i wasn't even sure if there was a problem or not so i was trying to test and verify if they were getting my messages at all or if they were being lost to the ether somehow
You page, "when i approached them i wasn't even sure if there was a problem or not so i was trying to test and verify if they were getting my messages at all or if they were being lost to the ether somehow" to Patashu.

You page, "I had to move to a new instanced not by my choice" to Patashu.
In a page-pose to you, Patashu nods, got it!
page patashu=I asked them only after finding out if it really was a federation issue. and after that I asked them to contact their operator because I couldn't because federation was broken why if it was intentional to to try and resolve the issue
You page, "I asked them only after finding out if it really was a federation issue. and after that I asked them to contact their operator because I couldn't because federation was broken why if it was intentional to to try and resolve the issue" to Patashu.
Patashu pages, "Yes, I didn't assume otherwise. And then Voksa told you that the defederation was warranted and not something they were interested in fighting to change, and it sounds like you continued to insist." to you.
Vahno says, "Heheh."
Capricious-Proxy says, "How's it going?"
page patashu=voksa didn't say that. they just said some conspiracy theory about 8chan and then complete silence when i said 8 used 8chan too and was trying to talk to them about that. There's nothing shady about the people who run my instance
You page, "voksa didn't say that. they just said some conspiracy theory about 8chan and then complete silence when i said 8 used 8chan too and was trying to talk to them about that. There's nothing shady about the people who run my instance" to Patashu.

You page, "I tried to restablish contact with them after i assumed their internet dropped out" to Patashu.
page patashu=there was no out of context messages. also, we talked pretty regularly before that so a sudden dropoff out of nowehere was weird. the messages i sent were 'test' which only warrents a test received
You page, "there was no out of context messages. also, we talked pretty regularly before that so a sudden dropoff out of nowehere was weird. the messages i sent were 'test' which only warrents a test received" to Patashu.
Patashu pages, "Because I've been there before, as a conflict averse person: Sometimes when I don't have the emotional energy to handle a stressful conversation with someone, I just kind of drop out and ghost it because it's the only thing I *can* do in the moment. To be explicit, I don't know which of the following situations are true, since no one has logs: 1) Voksa did ask you to stop and you forgot that it happened. 2) Voksa thought they asked you to stop, but it was only asked implicitly and you didn't pick up on the hint. - But given all the information you have now, don't you think it's likely that what you thought was an internet glitch and then an inability for Voksa to pick up on your DMs was Voksa signalling that they were not interested in talking to you about this anymore and you not picking up on this cue and continuing to insist on having the conversation?" to you.
page patashu=I had no idea they were blocking me
You page, "I had no idea they were blocking me" to Patashu.
page patashu=i had no idea they were blocking me until a few weeks ago
You page, "i had no idea they were blocking me until a few weeks ago" to Patashu.
page patashu=no, I thought they just went offline for a while since i didn't see them in the usual channels. Also if your going to stop talking to someone you have an obligation to tell them so they don't assume something bad happened especially if they are an aquantance. Also, While I had assumed the mastodon blocking thing was a blanket block on a whole domain, not me. Which i still believe. I never assumed that there was a blocking on IRC. I forgot about it for a while but remembered a few times and attempted to follow up and test if voksa was back online again every few weeks. I had assumed at that point they were going through some life things and quit irc since i hadn't seen much activity of them online either
You page, "no, I thought they just went offline for a while since i didn't see them in the usual channels.

page patashu=and also since they apologized to me before for irrational accusations they made about me in the #vore chat and told me they just got out of an abusive home, so i just assumed they were taking a break from the internet to relax. They didn't strike me as they type to care a whole lot about freedom either so i assumed they went back to telegram of facebook or something, which i have no intention of going to. I did however leave their website in my feed reader, since i enjoy their writing

You page, "so when I saw them here and I said "hello" i was surprised to see them online" to Patashu.
Patashu pages, "I agree that it's optimal to tell someone you're ghosting them (and again, I don't know if Voksa did say and you forgot, or implied and you missed, or just went cold turkey and you misinterpreted. It sounds like it's 3 but I don't know and there's no logs). It's true that your behaviour at the time is consistent with your belief that Voksa was not ghosting you and was still interested in talking to you. However, you now know differently . What would it take for you to realize that you made a mistake and be willing to apologize for Voksa for misinterpreting the situation? Note that if you say 'I was right then and I'm still right now, I won't apologize' or an equivalent, you're *definitely* not fixing your relationship." to you.
page patashu=i also saw them online in another channel on IRC i was in, at that point i realized i was mispelling their name wrong so that's probably why I wasn't getting any responses

You page, "no they went cold turkey." to Patashu.
page patashu=hmm
You page, "hmm" to Patashu.
Patashu pages, "Because I can tell you what would happen right now if I put you in a room and mediated - you'd argue that actually you were in the right all along and Voksa is the aggressor for going cold turkey on you, Voksa would go 'okay, I was right about my assumptions of you, then' and leave, and nothing productive would be accomplished. That's why I haven't suggested it as a course of action yet. :P" to you.
page patashu=I feel like i deserve a pretty big apology for leading me on like that for months and not saying anything. I also think it was incredibly rude to act all coy in the common chats and also being terrible to me and banishing me all because of some conspiracy theory. *hold on still typing*

Mako is becalled
Patashu pages, "See, this is exactly what I've talking about. I've dealt with people who think like you before while moderating. Your first and only priority is defending your own feelings and beliefs while no one else's emotions and positions matter. You'll never apologize to someone first; you'll always demand an apology, and once it's given (if it is) give nothing in return. You treat being right on the internet as a zero sum game, where all the facts in your head are the true ones and your feelings are the one's who should be attended to because everyone else is obviously wrong. Socializing on the internet isn't a single player game; it's a multiplayer game. You have to give a little to receive a lot. You have to be willing to nurture and fix relationships when there's a dispute, not just bunker down and demand validation. And that's why you won't be able to repair your relationship with Voksa, unless you change your priorities as a person first. You'll be able to get along with people perfectly fine, until the first time there's a miscommunication or a difference in values, then you won't know what to do to fix the relationship because the entire time you only think about yourself and what you want and how to get it. You have to be willing to show fallibility - vulnerability - to hold other peoples' priorities before your own when it's the right time to - to be altruistic." to you.

This appears to be a rather constrictive inkwell, jammed full of characters. A little bit of Vulpes Flourinectie ink drops on you; through it one can see the rose garden that's out there and the people in it. Among other things, the world outside the inkwell offers housing that isn't so cramped, or so wet.
You might choose to visit the Rose Garden by typing 'out', or the park of the day by typing 'park'. You can return to this area by typing 'new'. If you're new to MUCKing, you can get a short list of important commands by typing 'commands'.
If you'd like a character, you can page a wizard who's on duty -- they're listed by typing 'wizzes' -- or if none are available, send an email with the name you want and some information about your character to character@spindizzy.org and if there's no difficulties, the persona will be created. It's highly recommended to take look around SpinDizzy and talk to other residents before requesting a character.
If you *have* a character and would like automated help setting it up, or re-setting it, you may wish to try typing the 'setup' command from here. You can get help finding a home by typing 'homefinder', or type 'homefinder #help' for more options.
If you need help, try paging helpstaff or a wizard (type 'helpstaff' or 'wizzes' for a list of such people), or for basic help type 'commands'.

In the second form, with the <message>, the user receives a message like:

If a player is set HAVEN, you cannot page them. You will instead be told,

To Patashu: I am willing to say "I am sorry if I did anything to make you feel uncomfortable or to make you feel that I am harassing you" to Voksa
I want to make the following points:
1. Make clear I am not here to ruin anybody's day. If it ruins anybody's day me simply being here that is unfair.
2. make clear I am not here to Harass Voksa
3. whatever the problem is on the other platform, I am not bringing it to SpinDizzy
4. I have not done anthing on SpinDizzy to complement these claims against me.
5. This issue was only brough to forefront when I couldn't enter spaces on SpinDizzy when all I ever did was say "hello".
6. What happens ON SpinDizzy is the issue
7. Whatever the staff want to suggest to resolve the issue I am ears open to.
additionally, my friend wrote the following questions they wanted me to relay:
1 ) Not a threat
- Agris is not here to ruin anyone's day.
- He's not here or planning to break anyone's rules.
2 ) Wants to enjoy the space
- Agris wants to enjoy Spindizzy the same as he's done for as long as he's been here.
- He doesn't want drama. It's the last thing he wants.
3 ) Nature of the claim
- Voksa is claiming Agris will harass them as the basis of their actions. He won't. If he has, he will not further.
4 ) Nature of the actions
- Agris was, from my understanding, a neutral party in SpinDizzy at the time of the event.
- The ban on him is therefore an action on a neutral party (no provocation).
- It must, then, be okay (not in the legal sense but netiquette) to do any administrative action up to banning without provocation.
- New accounts do not have prior provocation. These actions can be taken, therefore, on any person based on name or whim.
5 ) Question of time
- Given (4), is this an indefinitely permissible action? Can it be repeated multiple times?
- How long will Agris have to wait (none, week, year, indefinite) as a neutral party to gain the access a new account has?
I was encouraged to join your MUCK by Agris shortly before these events and was excited to.
Given (4), I am not willing to join a MUCK that could potentially do this sort of thing to a brand spanking new user, without provocation.
I don't mind whatever else might happen or what judgments take place.
The way this was done has serious implications.
This isn't an isolated case, Agris is not special. That's entirely the problem and why it could so recklessly apply. Replace his name with anybody in the MUCK.

3 ) Nature of the claim
- Voksa is claiming Agris will harass them as the basis of their actions. He won't. If he has, he will not further.
4 ) Nature of the actions
- Agris was, from my understanding, a neutral party in SpinDizzy at the time of the event.
- The ban on him is therefore an action on a neutral party (no provocation).
- It must, then, be okay (not in the legal sense but netiquette) to do any administrative action up to banning without provocation.
- New accounts do not have prior provocation. These actions can be taken, therefore, on any person based on name or whim.
5 ) Question of time
- Given (4), is this an indefinitely permissible action? Can it be repeated multiple times?
- How long will Agris have to wait (none, week, year, indefinite) as a neutral party to gain the access a new account has?
I was encouraged to join your MUCK by Agris shortly before these events and was excited to.
Given (4), I am not willing to join a MUCK that could potentially do this sort of thing to a brand spanking new user, without provocation.
I don't mind whatever else might happen or what judgments take place.
The way this was done has serious implications.
This isn't an isolated case, Agris is not special. That's entirely the problem and why it could so recklessly apply. Replace his name with anybody in the MUCK.
Kohrokho, Friend of Agris

Newcomer's Island(#1603RDA)
This appears to be a rather constrictive inkwell, jammed full of characters. A little bit of Vulpes Flourinectie ink drops on you; through it one can see the rose garden that's out there and the people in it. Among other things, the world outside the inkwell offers housing that isn't so cramped, or so wet.
You might choose to visit the Rose Garden by typing 'out', or the park of the day by typing 'park'. You can return to this area by typing 'new'. If you're new to MUCKing, you can get a short list of important commands by typing 'commands'.
If you'd like a character, you can page a wizard who's on duty -- they're listed by typing 'wizzes' -- or if none are available, send an email with the name you want and some information about your character to character@spindizzy.org and if there's no difficulties, the persona will be created. It's highly recommended to take look around SpinDizzy and talk to other residents before requesting a character.
If you *have* a character and would like automated help setting it up, or re-setting it, you may wish to try typing the 'setup' command from here. You can get help finding a home by typing 'homefinder', or type 'homefinder #help' for more options.
If you need help, try paging helpstaff or a wizard (type 'helpstaff' or 'wizzes' for a list of such people), or for basic help type 'commands'.
Bright, shifting stars light the way in the clear, cold sky. It feels like 3 am.

You feel a wrenching sensation...
Patashu's Personal Quarters(#29396RLJA)
While the base is constantly busy manufacturing and researching and testing and shipping and soforth, Patashu often desires to have a space of his own to work on personal projects or to have discussions with friends and associates. The quarters start with an open foyer of sorts - having a lounge and holographic computer systems, workbenches and scientific equipment and a table (with the company logo emblazoned in gold along its surface) that can be used for conferences, gaming and eating just as easily. (Of course, there are amneties for organic visitors - food, water, beds and all!) (Oh yes, and there IS a pile of 'cushions' and 'beanbags'.) From the holographic screens, all activity of the base can be monitored, and base databases/security feeds accessed. Off to one side, a personal hangar has a huge, rotary rack of different robotic parts and even alternate bodies that can be swapped into and out of, as well as a maintenance system with automated scaffold lined with robotic arms. Kobolds clean, maintain and can be called upon for any necessary task. Posters and blueprints line many of the walls, some of them of products the base builds, some of them gaming related or based on legendary mecha, and the noise of the surrounding base is (mostly) dampened.
Among the Cushions, you see it is empty.

The sleepers here are Tiden, Niny'ah, and Moriar.
The puppets here are Kromatico, and Speers Errand.
'Kamare yips, "Hey Agris."
[OOC] Kandra says, "I think writing & RP is also a good way to explore what you feel like or are comfortable being. Obviously like, life experiences also are a huge part of it."
say hi
You yip, "hi"
[OOC] Kandra mutters in "also in my case, taking hormones"
Kandra earflits.
say how are you doing Kandra?
You yip, "how are you doing Kandra?"
[OOC] Patashu says, "Furry RP helps me express myself and my desires and feelings in a lot of ways that don't work in 'normie IRL' interactinos. SO I'm grateful for it. It's a positive feedback loop."
Patashu rar! at Agris.
[OOC] Paige says, "Excellent."
Kandra shrugs a little, sidelong. Eyeing the strange, pushy white fox.
ooc I agree with that greatly Patashu, also hi there =3
[OOC] Agris says, "I agree with that greatly Patashu, also hi there =3"
say pushy?
You yip, "pushy?"
[OOC] Kandra says, "Oh, Agris, I was...kinda-meaning to ask how the Minecraftian mining machine you mentioned once having built worked. Cause... wondering."
Kandra did not actually *say* pushy out loud. Is just glancing at.
ooc oh, it's been years since i did that but there were some blocks in the redpower2 mod that allowed you to move whole segments of special blocks called frames
[OOC] Agris says, "oh, it's been years since i did that but there were some blocks in the redpower2 mod that allowed you to move whole segments of special blocks called frames"
[OOC] Paige says, "Still thinking about what you said about different character personalities a while ago Patashu, I want to experiment more."
ooc and you could slice any material with a special knife to create a think sheet of it to cover the frames
[OOC] Agris says, "and you could slice any material with a special knife to create a think sheet of it to cover the frames"
ooc uncovered frames look like scaffolding
[OOC] Agris says, "uncovered frames look like scaffolding"
[OOC] Patashu says, "What did I say again? I honestly don't have a strong grasp on *how* I different-characters"
[OOC] Kandra ohs, "Oh right!" RP2... oooooold stuff
[OOC] Paige says, "That they're ways to express different facets of yourself, mostly"
ooc and then you use can bundled cable and redwire to connect the motors that move the frames to a computer
[OOC] Agris says, "and then you use can bundled cable and redwire to connect the motors that move the frames to a computer"
[OOC] Patashu says, "OH, yes"
ooc the computer can be programmed in lua
[OOC] Agris says, "the computer can be programmed in lua"
[OOC] Kandra says, "And it doesn't crash when you move the computer? c.c"
ooc no
[OOC] Agris says, "no"
[OOC] Mythos says, "I like having a multiple characters. Some were just and idea that got caught in my head until I wrote it, but others serve more purpose. For example, lately I've been feeling more like RPing Mythos than Arvenia. I think it's because things have been a bit meh lately and I appreciate Mythos's near-boundless positivity and enthusiasm, and also I want to be held and comforted by big robots which is more of a Mythos thing."
[OOC] Kandra ahh.
ooc opencomputers mod is much more stable than computercraft. including the computers remembering their state when you restart the server
[OOC] Agris says, "opencomputers mod is much more stable than computercraft. including the computers remembering their state when you restart the server"
[OOC] Kandra wants to be held and comforted by ...
[OOC] Paige says, "Oh, fun. Boundless Positivity can really help sometimes, hah."
[OOC] Patashu grins. Being held by a big robot is an *excellent* mood.
[OOC] Patashu says, "That's definitely the kind of vibe I want with my RP, yeah - a relatively carefree and exciting world of exploring possibilities, hanging out with friends and bringing the fantastic to life"
[OOC] 'Kamare says, "Didn't CC kinda die?"
Voksa arrives from Primary Factory Complex.
Voksa has arrived.
Voksa scurries in to hold Patashu, prrb.
[OOC] Kandra says, "ComputerCraft is still around in some form I believe."
Patashu cozies into big spacedragon paws, prrrrrr. nwn;
ooc i also built a really nice actually smooth-moving vertical elevator into a mineshaft using the same technique, but i didn't use lua computers i just use a timer and various redlogic
[OOC] Agris says, "i also built a really nice actually smooth-moving vertical elevator into a mineshaft using the same technique, but i didn't use lua computers i just use a timer and various redlogic"
[OOC] Kandra says, "OpenComputers is still stuck on 1.12"
[OOC] Kandra says, "Last I knew"
[OOC] 'Kamare says, "Huh"
Voksa delicately pets origami creature. "Wow, you're sparkly even when you're paper..."
[OOC] Mythos says, "Arvenia is mostly positive too, though more of a enjoy just existing and anything more is icing on the cake, which isn't how I've been feeling lately."
[OOC] Voksa says, "Oh, I see"
Patashu toothy-grins with little fangs of paper sparkling. "Of course. I'm either dazzle-glamour or industrial rumble."
Patashu . o O ( Sometimes both I guess?? )
[OOC] Kandra ponders, idly... wonders if it'd be possible to build a machine that (operating from up in the sky) does a sequence of punching all the way down to [low Y level] with mining-thing, using the blocks so acquired to build a long-distance railway semiautonomously
Voksa lifts him up a little higher to bump noses together.
[OOC] Kandra says, "I don't think I could get the old versions that genuine RP2 ran on to run easily though; they'd want old Java."
Mythos OvO !
Voksa says, "What about... Industrial Glamour..."
Mythos patters over to gently bonk visors with Voksa!
Voksa beeps and leans in to headbonk Mythos!
Patashu hmMMmmm...
say i'd like to be held by a big robot
You yip, "i'd like to be held by a big robot"
Mythos hugs to Voksa's screen.
Patashu perks, and whistles.
Fenrir arrives from Primary Factory Complex.
Fenrir has arrived.
Fenrir sticks head in, rumbling?
Voksa rumbles softly and hoists Mythos up.
Voksa says, "Hi Fenrir!"
Fenrir rumbles, "Hello, Voksa. ... Did someone need my services?"
page patashu=have you had a chance to read my email yet?
You page, "have you had a chance to read my email yet?" to Patashu.
In a page-pose to you, Patashu headshakes. "Haven't had an uninterruptible moment to context switch and do so. Got relatives over, and we've been board gaming. (Carcassonne, first game ever, I got 2nd)"
page patashu=no worries. i didn't want to talk about it now anyways. I was just curious
You page, "no worries. i didn't want to talk about it now anyways. I was just curious" to Patashu.
look fenrir
A mechanical feral wolf towering 20 meters to the shoulder, the Command Battle Fortress "FENRIR" is less a war machine and more a force of nature. Armoured, slightly geometric metal surfaces painted a dark gray like a stormy sky, the ground shakes with every slow pawfall, accented by the hisses and whirrs of movement and the thundering rumbles of constant idle activity. Lining his surfaces are a variety of weapons, ranging from the largest siegebreaking cannons to anti-personnel and anti-aircraft turrets, twisting and bobbing with every motion, vigilant. High up in the sky, the wolf's eyes glow a piercing yellow, and his fanged maw gleams, sharp and menacing, rivaling the plowing tips of his claws, his tail bristled with sharp, fanned, segmented plates that spread in every direction from each thick segment.
-
Far from working alone, FENRIR is often employed with one or more of his subordinate Battle Fortress units, to garrison territory in need of defense, push deep into enemy territory or even to explore/adventure in/clear 2D and 3D planar hidden worlds. Each Battle Fortress carries a crew of anthro lupine soldiers and officers, and one Chief Gnoll Engineer (FENRIR's is named Cypher), supplied by Patashu Industries, who is in charge of tweaks, repairs, upgrades and maintenance during and between battles. In addition, they are capable of commanding squadrons of lesser units - whether they be tanks, soldiers or mechs. When off-duty, FENRIR can be open to approach, having quite the gruff and proud personality, yet a loyalty towards those he protects and fights for.

[OOC] Mythos says, "Something reminded me, unsure what exactly, I wanted one of my characters to meet Femashu as I thought there'd interesting interactions between their personalities as I know them to be. I want to say I had Fleshrend in mind, but it could've been Mythos I was thinking of at the time.. or both, it was a while ago."
ooc i'm curious about Femashu too
[OOC] Agris says, "i'm curious about Femashu too"
Fenrir rumbles to Agris, and leans in close to *nuzzle-bump* the smaller fox.
ooc but I still have yet to have a one on one encounter with cinderglow, which i'm looking forward to more
[OOC] Agris says, "but I still have yet to have a one on one encounter with cinderglow, which i'm looking forward to more"

Agris's ears splaying down briefly and then perked right back up with curiosity
Fenrir perks at the zap, but isn't alarmed or worried by it. With a playful grin, they give yet another *bump* back, the rumble of the mecha's industry felt through it.
Mythos giggling lightly, asks, "Voksa.. what kind of music do you listen to?"
Patashu . o O ( Uh oh )
Voksa rolls their head back and sings o/` STEAM BRAIIIIN o/` https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uXvdGkIckPw

[OOC] Patashu says, "Voksa and all 149 threads of Corsa"
[OOC] Voksa says, "No, these are uploaded by the band."
[OOC] Voksa says, "bahaha"
pose is quite impressed with fenrir's size yet also fine articulation. they raise a clawed paw and rest it over fenrir's nose, petting along
Agris is quite impressed with fenrir's size yet also fine articulation. they raise a clawed paw and rest it over fenrir's nose, petting along
[OOC] Voksa says, "Oh, the views"
[OOC] Voksa says, "Well. About fifty of them might be me :B"
[OOC] Kandra ponders the notion of a character used to being described as something along the lines of a demigod, but who is actually just a posthuman imbued with "godtech" (i.e. the It's Really Advanced, I Can't Tell You How It Works Because It Might Be Impossible OOCly, But It Does Work In-World, Just Trust Me level of sci-fi tech) and possessed of a programmable utility-fog aura. Melding the aesthetic of, say, vaguely Greco-Roman fantasy / fairies and flowers / emotionality and poetry, with the aesthetic of, idk, transhumanism/futurity?
Fenrir closes eyes, and deeprumble 'rrrrrrrrrs' to Agris.
[OOC] Patashu says, "utility-fog aura..."
[OOC] Kandra says, "idea stolen from Fate"

pose looks down at Derek
Agris looks down at Derek
look Derek
A lightly curved, tall, elegant looking wolf, sand-furred and white-striped. Golden spines of metal erupt from under his fur as he moves, rising as he flexes, and falling as he relaxes. Bright green eyes are framed by ever-flowing brown hair, flowing down to his waist in slow waves, and instead of bangs, a pair of curving golden-bronze horns curve up and back from his forehead.
He gives off a particularly commanding air from a distance, with his long stride, imperious resting b*tch face, and seven foot stature that leaves him usually looking down his muzzle and through half-moon glasses at who he's speaking to.
Though, this imperious iciness tends to melt when he warms up to people, aside how he looks- His stance relaxes, he slouches slightly, and a grin might paste his face more often than not, and all the stark judgement in his eyes will melt away into a glittering mischief.
When action calls, Derek is no slouch, spikes rising and electricity arcing along them, along his body and scorching whatever set of clothing he is wearing at the time, usually an open button up shirt of any graphic variety, alongside a pair of jeans and heavy paw-adapted full-steel-shank boots.

You wake up back home, without your possessions.
Newcomer's Island(#1603RDA)
This appears to be a rather constrictive inkwell, jammed full of characters. A little bit of Vulpes Flourinectie ink drops on you; through it one can see the rose garden that's out there and the people in it. Among other things, the world outside the inkwell offers housing that isn't so cramped, or so wet.
You might choose to visit the Rose Garden by typing 'out', or the park of the day by typing 'park'. You can return to this area by typing 'new'. If you're new to MUCKing, you can get a short list of important commands by typing 'commands'.
If you'd like a character, you can page a wizard who's on duty -- they're listed by typing 'wizzes' -- or if none are available, send an email with the name you want and some information about your character to character@spindizzy.org and if there's no difficulties, the persona will be created. It's highly recommended to take look around SpinDizzy and talk to other residents before requesting a character.
If you *have* a character and would like automated help setting it up, or re-setting it, you may wish to try typing the 'setup' command from here. You can get help finding a home by typing 'homefinder', or type 'homefinder #help' for more options.
If you need help, try paging helpstaff or a wizard (type 'helpstaff' or 'wizzes' for a list of such people), or for basic help type 'commands'.
