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.

No no I am an octopus!

I should become one!

But I can't.

I can only be my adult form.

[She'd get to his worries, but that was too important to let go!!]

[grindset]

Still an exciting thing, to be able to transform yourself - when you are able.
Is it very uncomfortable, or limited to that sense of loss?

[consider8]

Well, I also can't swim in ink in my human form either.

[So like a penguin without an ocean.]

[grindset]

I have not seen great enough quantities of ink for that here -
Actually, I have never seen such a thing, anywhere.

[consider8]

For eel? Huh.

[In hindsight it is probably more of an octarian and inkling thing.]

I can produce it.

I can make some right now, but it is far less than what I should be able to.

[The fact that the Witches's camp is not alleys full of brightly colored ink is testament to that inability.]

[grindset]

Was that how you made the sign in your "Witch Cast" video?

[consider8]

Yes.

[You saw that, Viktor?]

[grindset]

[yes... shh...]

Impressive -
When you said you could make ink, I was imagining only black.

[consider8]

Why? That would be boring.

[Even in the deep of the octodomes, one of the few things they could appreciate was the ability to make ink of any color they want.]
