The Tether

The Tether App

During the night, everyone's phone or other network device has been updated with a new app - The Tether - intended for helping new arrivals find Tethers.

Unfortunately for those who don't want to participate, the prompt for the application will keep popping up on their screen until they fill out the mandatory fields and post their profile. If you don't want to participate, it might be best to fill in the blanks with prank answers!

Once posted, the app creates a profile that looks like this:

	The Witch
«		»
	Age: ageless Gender: female Interests: three interests About: 30 words or less
	base code by photosynthesis
	Tian
	« ✘ ✔ »

It is a simple swiping type app like many dating apps, swipe left to ignore a profile, swipe right to initiate an instant messenger conversation with the person in question on the app's proprietary chat program, complete with emojis!

NOTE: This meme is game canon.

That is all that one can do, sometimes. I do hope you take some solace in that. Any life saved, in terrible times, is a miracle.

[tech_nically]

Yes, that's true enough.

[The poor man - he has seen much, even by the standards of a soldier.]

I am sorry to introduce such gloom to the conversation.

[tech_nically]

No need. I think it would have been inevitable that it would come up at some point or another.

[tarisian_cathar]

True. And understood.

But I hope to bring you more positive conversations in future, too.

[tech_nically]

I'm sure there will be. I should definitely like to hear about the Republic you know, some time.

[tarisian_cathar]

It would be a pleasure to share stories with you.
