Hello Users, For those of you who are new: Welcome to Retrospec™, the last social media network you will ever need. You are one of the few selected to test this exciting new platform based on our cutting-edge algorithms. Membership is not currently open to the public. However, we hope you will come to see how useful Retrospec™ is, given time. We have for your use a variety of features such as text, voice, video, and image posts. We encourage you to explore our many options. For all, new and old: Please be advised that should you go above and beyond the call of duty for Mr. Halloway's little game in the coming days, there may be a reward granted or information given. 100% completion would be the goal for that, should you have an interest. If you have no interest in the matter, please feel free to carry on as usual. R&D will not be handling further communiques for this month, or possibly the next few months. This should not, of course, have any impact on your usage of Retrospec™. The first milestone for the second of the colors lost has been met, and accordingly we have diverted resources to fix what could be fixed. R&D has alerted me that a bigger loss may occur in the near future, and I would advise you to be careful, though I am afraid neither they nor I can be much more detailed than that. Finally, I would like to extend congratulations to those of you who have now reached your sixth month. We hope you will continue to accept our assistance in these trying times. Thank you for your patience, Janet Wiseman Human Resources Retrspec Incorporated As of this post green fruits and flowers of this color regain their pigment. (Note: this is not all plants. This is just for flowers and fruits!) 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. Any new characters will find that the first photo they upload is locked as their profile picture for the rest of the month. Characters who have been in game since February will find their profiles now have a 6 months badge. It does absolutely nothing of note.

As much as I want to believe they won't be able to do anything else they DID shrink us all down for awhile there and I'd like to spend the rest of my life forgetting that happened, so! Who knows with Retrospec?

[storytelleroftime]

The shrinking wasn't even as bad as their atrocity committed against Kekistan! They ruined our flag and our prophet! The Retrospec Normies will pay!!!

But I digress. Even if things do get worse... well, we can't say we didn't see it all coming.

[scythegun]

Kekistan? Shame to hear that your property was ruined! I thankfully avoided any of that, but you're right - we HAVE been warned, whether we like it or not. The only thing we can really do is prepare for the worst!

[storytelleroftime]

Yes. And our great nation is unaware of it. It is truly a tragedy beyond belief. But really... we are powerless to stop this. Almost is making our lives seem like a cosmic horror story.

[scythegun]

You can certainly say that again! Between the strange items Retrospec's been handing out and the bizarre "memories", it really DOES seem like some kind of horror story! Not to mention the changes to the world ITSELF, as though something like that is perfectly normal!

[storytelleroftime]

Hopefully we're getting a death cult next. I do enjoy my death cults.

[scythegun]

[Also it totally slipped my mind, but this is coming in from "Gunther Schwarz" instead of Jaeger! Not that it's super important, but it's worth noting.]

It would certainly be better than cults worshiping our lords and ladies of Retrospec! I had a lovely conversation about that last month and I'd prefer to believe that no one would ever sink so low.

[storytelleroftime]

Why not have both? A retrospec-worshipping death cult. Oh god, wait, does that mean...

THAT JIM GUY EVERYONE KEEPS DISSING IS NYARLATHOTEP CONFIRMED!

[scythegun]

I wouldn't go THAT far, but I wouldn't be surprised if he DID turn out to be some sort of eldritch horror capable of manipulating the very world around us!

[storytelleroftime]

Oh. So less Nyarlathotep and more Anthony. Got it.

[scythegun]

Something like that, probably!

[storytelleroftime]

Great. So now we're really screwed. Well on the bright side, at least Jim can take hate comments marginally well without ruining people's lives over them.

[scythegun]

It's true! Usually these posts are full of people complaining about Jim and his supposedly fake girlfriend, though he's never said anything in response. To my knowledge, at least!

[storytelleroftime]

Maybe he just blocks everyone who insults him. He might have created his own little echo chamber.

[scythegun]

That certainly could explain some things! I'm sure he just wants to hear about how amazing and wonderful he is!

[storytelleroftime]

We're probably on the blocked list now too rip.

[scythegun]

Personally, I prefer the freedom to say whatever I want about Jim, even if he'll never see it!

[storytelleroftime]

Yeah. Jim being Anita Sarkeesian instead of Big Brother is probably a blessing.
