007 [Video] | Forward-dated slightly to morning on the 4th
[So, turns out Sorrow-induced insomnia combined with generally staying inside so as not to tell everyone in the whole world everything awful that you've ever done has an upside. It's great for getting things done, especially when that thing is something he feels guilty about not having finished sooner.
He hasn't actually figured out the event is over by the time he makes this post, having been awake all night, though he does feel a little bit better than before and so offers a small smile to start the whole thing off.]
Hey, um, everyone.
[And he pauses, because he probably should've thought this announcement out a little more, but whatever.]
So I uh, finished something less fun than emojis, but probably a little more practical? I mean, it'd be better if we had a GPS system [--come on guys you totally voted for the wrong god--] but we can always add that part into it later.
Basically, um, it's a program that lets you set up an emergency message and who you want to send it to, and then just hit one button to send it. So if you're like, in danger or hurt or something and can't type or call someone but can hit a button, someone'll at least know you need help and go looking for you.
[And hopefully that could help someone, even a little, whenever the next horrible thing happens here.]
If anyone needs help like, setting it up, just let me know and I can probably get it going for you. It should be pretty simple though, so don't worry if you're not like, super tech savvy.
[And attached is a download for the program, which installs simply enough and includes a customizable message and a list of people to send it to. Once set up, a button will appear on the lock screen of the phone, and hitting it is all that's needed to send a message; any future changes to the message or receiver list can still be made through the main app.]

[ like that can't go wrong... ]

[A pause.]
But this is so not for trolling people, Cashmere.
[Even if that could be hilarious and he would normally be all for it, if weren't that it's important people take the special messages seriously in case of emergency.]

Chris, I would never do such a thing. I'm thinking about the safety of everyone. If everyone knows someone is in trouble we can spring into action to help them.
[ and also she can mess with everyone all at once. ]
video
[He says it with a small grin, because he can totally see through that act. He's pulled it more than once himself.]
Seriously though, I think you'd uh... Actually be in more danger if you sent an SOS to everyone. Not everyone like, gets along or wants to help.
video
I don't have any enemies. Everyone likes me. [ bullshit. ] Unless you know something I don't know?
video
[But he thinks the whole thing that happened in the middle of last month kind of illustrates that not everyone here has others' best interests at heart.]
video
Oh, well, that's true. Can't get rid of them either way though, can we?
video
[He may be slightly paranoid here but he feels like it's warranted.]
video
video
[He gets the definite impression not to mess with Cashmere.]
video
You should.
But if you need help, I will help you.
video
Thanks. Um, same, though I don't think you'd probably need it.
video
You never know in an emergency. Besides, maybe I'll just need someone to talk me down from being crazy. You're pretty good at that.

[It's meant as a faintly self-deprecating joke, but comes out a little more somber than intended. Yeah, he's pretty good at talking to people, but he's been failing hard lately when it comes to convincing them not to do things.]
