Hey, Users! This month's wikihow is right over here. In other news, don't you just love our logo colors? Such a nice shade of blue. I'm pretty fond of it myself! You know, Janet has blue eyes. But then, I guess you guys don't know anyone with eyes that color anymore, right? Whoops. Anyway, see you next month! Well, some of you anyway. :) Jim Halloway Research & Development Retrspec Incorporated As discussed on the monthly plot post the colors blue and green are now gray - except for the blue on the retrospec application logo and their building sign, although no NPC will be capable of seeing the color in these places. As stated in the plot post, NPCs will also seem to be completely unaware that the colors blue and green ever existed. Oops. 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. Last's month's application round characters are now capable of changing their profile pictures.

Do we have any lawyers to hire for this suit? After all, they have to see the app to understand, after all.

[heiroglyphs]

There has to be at least one.
We can prove they stole the colors.
We can't keep letting them get away with this.

[true_noir]

You know, small claims court doesn't involve lawyers sometimes. It seems ridiculous to use it, but you could read up on law and try to file for them to make an appearance?

I would use the photos, though, instead of the colors. I seem to recall people were shocked by the invasion of privacy.

[heiroglyphs]

I'd rather not show a jury a bunch of pictures of my ass if I can help it.
But if that's what it takes to bring these idiots down.

[true_noir]

Understandable, though small claims is just the judge. It's all very... well, small obviously. It might do any real harm to them, but it might also bring a representative out we could talk to.

[heiroglyphs]

If it's small claims they'll probably just settle without a hearing.
We need to get them with something big if we want their attention.

[true_noir]

A settlement requires a lawyer of its own, which means that their employee still must appear to file the paperwork at least. That's someone we could respond to.

Not that I disagree. I want to nail them to the wall.

[Literally.]

[heiroglyphs]

Nailing them to the wall would only be the start of what I want to do to them.
But if we can get that far I'll be content.

[true_noir]

A woman after my own heart. If I hear about any lawyers, I will let you know. There has to be a way to approach this that could go through the courts despite not seeing the app.

We just might need to be clever.

[heiroglyphs]

We'll need to be a lot more than clever.
But it's a start at least.

Professor Izunia? Does he count? Would people take him seriously and not just assume he's a crazy hobo though

[heiroglyphs]

I would prefer to not work with a crazy hobo.
Even if they do know more about law than I do.

[twelfthspark]

He's not literally a crazy hobo (probably?)
He just dresses like one.

[heiroglyphs]

That's... better?
But not really?
How is he supposed to be a lawyer if no one will take him seriously?

[twelfthspark]

idk, have you ever been to one of his classes?

[heiroglyphs]

I didn't have any kind of law class this semester.
Maybe I'll look into it next year?

[daemonized]

Now, don't let misguided hyperbole create your first impression for you. If you've an interest in one of my classes, then by all means, do sign up next year. You /will/ learn something, that I promise.

[twelfthspark]

Go for it, Vera. He's telling the truth.

[true_noir]

If they're a lawyer, it's a start.

We need police, and have them. We need investigations, and have them. We would need a lawyer and then a judge. I think what we lack for the moment is the judge.

And bailiffs and prison guards. We need a few more things, I suppose. Are your eyes gray now?

[twelfthspark]

uuuuuugh yes and it's gross. 😱

[true_noir]

Do you still have the cute antennae at least, though? I know it's from them, but it actually does look fetching on you.

[She's trying to troll, a little. It's not working well, as she's not feeling it too much.]

[twelfthspark]

Dream on. You and Jim and everyone else can look, but you can't touch.

[Neither is she. Whoops.]

[true_noir]

Heh. Have there been any other changes for you lately? I do, by the way, have a gift I want you to have. It can wait, though.

[twelfthspark]

It doesn't *have* to wait.

[true_noir]

This is true. I could tell you what's been going on in my life in person too. I'd suggest coffee, but you work at a coffee shop. How about donuts?
