Hello Users, Please be advised that the temporal-spatial storm has now passed. Temporary access levels have been revoked. We apologize for the inconvenience. Please also be advised that as the storm has passed, work has resumed on certain other issues. You have my sincere thanks for your assistance. Thank you, Janet Halloway Human Resources Retrspec Incorporated As of this post, the city has completely returned to normal; damage has been fixed, monsters are gone, and NPCs now believe that monsters are definitely not normal but don't seem to remember them having been a thing. Oops? All weapons and powers gained in their various locations / as QR codes are now gone, additionally. Group 1 locations can no longer be accessed. Retrospec NPCs will not be reachable past this point! As mentioned to various members of group one, the Director does not approve of Retrospec's team speaking with its users, so NPC interaction will drop back down to what it originally was at this time. Doing research for these people will also net zero results. City-based NPCs will now remember members of group two! They will simply be under the belief that group two members were on vacation/had a family emergency/etc. No consequences will come from them being away at their jobs or school or anything else! Furthermore: -Horses are now regarded as valid mythological creatures! So you get mildly less strange looks for talking about them. -Photographs and text, online and off, now have the color blue again! -Visual video media (online, in theaters, etc) now has the color green once again! This does not include text yet. -There has been a new list of karaoke songs added to the city of Recollé! These songs can now be found in karaoke bars and machines all across the city and even can be sold on CDs for your own karaoke parties. -The Crow's Nest now has locations across the world, including a brand new location right in the heart of Recollé! After August's plot wraps up, be sure to grab a bite to eat and say hi to Kenny Crow. -Finally, the ocean has been restored! It's still gray, however. Keep working together to buy back world changes. 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.

Well, it's good to see that at least they're acknowledging this as an "inconvenience" while they continue to try to fix our horrifically broken fruit. That's surprisingly better than I thought they would manage.

[Yes, yes, hello, he's had some time to charge his battery and he's about as pleased with everything as he usually is.]

[prometheanflame]

Its god to see you've made it back.

At least the mass kidnapping was fixed, which honestly is a very low bar.

[manufactured]

As one who was involved in it, I'd say it's a low bar indeed. It's good to be back, however, as much as I dislike acknowledging that fact for other reasons entirely.

[prometheanflame]

Did three weeks also pass for you, or were you taken somewhere outside of time? Dr Mahoney wasn't clear about the issue.

[manufactured]

Three weeks passed, yes. At least to my knowledge. I know the second week very much was a week long, as it was explicitly mentioned by someone outside of our group, but it's a bit more nebulous otherwise.

If I had to estimate, three weeks sounds right, however.

[prometheanflame]

Outside of your group, meaning you were also split up by someone on the other side?

We had Retrospec employees send us around the city fixing up their problems, but I'm not aware of what you had to do to escape.

[thesettingsun]

We have such low standards now. It's tragic.

[manufactured]

I should certainly say so. But surely at least we can take solace in the notion that they've done the absolute bare minimum and now we're expected to get on with our lives like absolutely none of that ever happened.

[He's. A little annoyed.]

[thesettingsun]

Aren't we so grateful that they've made sure there aren't monsters everywhere and people disappearing left and right? Who could expect any more than that?

[Same.]

[manufactured]

Let us all thank Mrs. Janet Halloway for ensuring that my commute to work is decidedly less interesting nowadays, due to running less risk of being interrupted by being swallowed by Charybdis.

[thesettingsun]

Depending on how you feel about your job that day, choosing between going to work or being swallowed by an ocean monster might be as tough as sailing between Scylla and Charybdis.

[impulsives]

you know, i feel like we should stage a bet that's literally just a countdown before their next massive "inconvenience".

you holding up alright now?

[manufactured]

About as well as can be expected, given all of that.

I assume you're doing likewise?

[impulsives]

yeah, I think i just collapsed in my dorm after that giant fight.

just woke up an hour ago.

so i guess i'm fully rested maybe.

can't believe my shitty dorm bed felt comfortable for once, but then again we did sleep on the floor for a few weeks.

[manufactured]

Admittedly, most of my plans for approximately the next week involve copious amounts of sleep in some way or another.

Either way, it's actually good to see this godforsaken city again.

[impulsives]

as much bullshit has happened in this city to me for the past few months.

i'm glad that i'm back here again.

though i don't think i can ever go to the beach again without thinking of everything that happened.

[sivard]

Glad to see you around again.

Kind of annoying how often things have started going to shit now that we've become aware of it.

[manufactured]

Isn't it just.

But yes, I've returned more or less in one piece. And I still owe you drinks, I believe.

[sivard]

I could use a drink right about now, too.

This is giving me a headache.

[manufactured]

Believe me, you're far from the only one.

[sivard]

You had your fair share of weird crap happening too, I take it? Seems like it happened to a lot of us.

[feistytrader]

Oh hey, Wesker.
Glad you're not dead.

[...Look, he had to.]

This almost interrupted their wedding ceremony. Of course it's an inconvenience.

[manufactured]

Oh, naturally.

Consider the sentiment returned, however, considering your apparent lack of demise.

[feistytrader]

I got your text and everything. I didn't think you cared.

[manufactured]

I thought it would be decent to at least verify.
