They aren't really ducks. It's just the name of the community.

[indestructible]

this duck logo just popped up on my phone. community like what? is it some sort of network?

are you rebel?

[indestructible]

i dont have time for whatever that is

[text]

[trickstering]

Yes, like some sort of network.

And no, I don't even know who rebel is.

[angel_promise]

Well... it sort of doesn't matter. The community itself really doesn't care what you want.

Internet community. In a moment, I can assure you that the hoards will come clambering at the chance to be helpful, but do try to show some semblance of intelligence before you start asking pointlessly redundant questions.

[6collegecredits]

Rebel~? Sounds serious.

[mightletyouknowme]

Eh? There's someone in your world named Rebel?

[ voice ]

[doyoufondue]

It's not your Rebel. It's a magic...thing.

video

[tenminutes]

[ A video pops up with a girl in a school uniform in what looks like it could be a principal's office based on the portraits of old principals in the background. She's got her hands folded, possibly at a desk. ] What are you rebelling against?

Asking what's going on is kind of like asking for a big "I dunno" wrapped in a mystery and a really big question mark.

[6collegecredits]

Unfortunately, this crap isn't going away any time soon.

[indestructible]

i dont think thats actually their name

[ voice ]

[indestructible]

Magic? There's no such thing. It's probably just some technopath... Why are all these different people talking at me?

[ voice ]

[doyoufondue]

Let's go with really advanced science then. [ technopath? what. ..let's not ask just yet. ] Because you got caught up in the community. Sorry. It won't go away or anything unless you humor it.

[ What the fuck is happening right now why is there a person showing up on her phone this is not a part of her data plan??? She doesn't want this so she just keeps talking. ]

Some seriously, seriously bad people.

good to know everybody else is in the dark too. real helpful.

[ voice ]

[indestructible]

I don't have time for humoring it. I've got someone counting on me to help them and I need my phone to be working!

[ voice ]

[doyoufondue]

Oh-- You should be able to use it now since you answered a couple of people. It'll work normally but the community will just be accessible on it from now on.

[madeitsquare]

Now there are ducks in your phone, lass.

The weird things haven't even started yet, believe me.
