What's up, users! We've mostly fixed the technical problems we were having earlier (unless Danny missed something again) but you might want to wear green. Also, I'm supposed to make a vague and mysterious informational post here but that sounded boring so I made a video presentation instead!



Cheers!

As of this post all apples, oranges, lemons, and limes have been replaced in-universe as the silly dancing fruits shown above. This means that as with Chocobos all NPCs will insist this is how things have always been and history/movies/etc will back them up.

In honor of St. Patrick's Day characters will find a request from Retrospec to upload a picture of themselves to the network in which they are wearing something green. They will find themselves shocked lightly by their device if they try to use it without complying. Rude?

A non-triggered memory regain can be earned through participation in this post in honor of Lucy's birthday the holiday with proof of a single thread with at least five comments from your character. If you plan to redeem this, please submit it to our regains page with the explanation of "March freebie". This must be submitted before April to be valid! Regardless of whether or not a character earns the freebie, all characters will find a gold coin with the Retrospec logo on one side and a Chocobo on the other. On the outside edge of the coin they will find "Jim, put a meaningful quote here. - Janet" engraved in a beautiful font. The Chocobo will morph into a horse should your character obtain the memory regain from the event; it will stay a Chocobo if your character does not obtain the memory regain.

Please see our OOC information post HERE for some information and reminders - you can direct any questions about this post there!

Please feel free to use this post as a network mingle. Every toplevel can be considered a new post, and threadjacking is permitted. No NPC response will be given. Usernames are the character's full real AU names, not aliases or chosen nicknames or usernames, and seemed to have filled themselves in; nothing characters do can change or obscure their names currently.

there are these little lemon shaped bottles with the juice in them. There must be some that will not smile at you. And in the meantime, do not forget strawberries and bananas.

Strawberries and bananas do not belong in tea.

No, no they do not. And neither does lemon squeezed out of a bottle. Honey, however, is not affected, so there is at least that, is there not?

Well, I do prefer milk and sugar and honey.
true_noir: (Hmmm)

Then you must settle for lemon from a bottle, to go with it. But at least the rest is not so bad.

Lemonade, which is what that actually is, does not belong in tea.

Is it now? I've never used it to cook much, so I never thought about it, but I suppose it is more very tart concentrated lemon flavored water, is it not?

It may as well be. And exactly so. I mean, what little juice there is in a lemon slice could never be as tart, I should think, as all of that.

No, I'll just have to do without them, at least for now.

And hopefully this will only be a temporary situation, though I suspect that we may be dealing with its repercussions for at least the foreseeable future.
madcuriosity: (Whatever will I do?)

[personal profile] madcuriosity 2017-03-31 04:56 pm (UTC)(link)
... I don't want to deal with this the rest of my life. Though I suppose if I'm 40 I'll have been used to chocobos instead of horses and smiling fruits and whatever else shall come.
true_noir: (Creeper)

I think we will all be mad for certain if this constant shifting is still going on for so long. Even smiling fruits might make sense if it became normal afterwards, and we didn't deal with so many strange moments.
