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. Less than two hundred invitations have gone out, and 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. 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. As a reminder, everything besides uploading a profile picture and information was locked until this post. 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. Oddly, profile pictures still cannot be swapped out at this time, so hopefully you took a good one. This post is an overflow from the original post here. Feel free to either carry over threads from there or create entirely new ones.

[continued from here] I totally sense an ominous "for now" at the end of that sentence

[notyourutopian]

I don't think any of us get a choice there.

There was a line in some movie I remember from forever ago. 'Time is the fire inw which we burn.'

[complementing]

I wonder why burning specifically

[notyourutopian]

Probably because it sounds dramatic?

[complementing]

time is the sea in which we drown time is the poison we choke on time is the sickness we succumb to yeah you're right, nothing else rolls off the tongue quite as well

[notyourutopian]

You gave that far more thought than it deserved, you know.

I kind of like the first one though.

[complementing]

hehe thanks! [She says this even though it probably wasn't meant to be a compliment...] yeah kind of sounds less...violent of a death (꒪꒫꒪|||)

[notyourutopian]

I am not sure drowning people would agree.
I just meant it flows better.

[complementing]

well from an objective point of view which way would you rather go??? yeah it does, I think s sounds always make phrases sound nice. Took forever for me to master sh sounds though

[notyourutopian]

Personally I'd rather not go at all.
Or old and asleep in my bed.
That sounds nice.

[complementing]

makes sense, we were kind of talking about time in the first place how about time is the sea of sleep we all return to

[notyourutopian]

I feel like that one would work better with 'death' instead of time.
Also I feel like I need it on a t-shirt.

[complementing]

time to visit the mall those silk screen people could make one for you in the blink of an eye I bet I kind of want this t-shirt too hmmm

[notyourutopian]

We could set up a doom-and-gloom etsy shop.

[complementing]

if only we could figure out a cost-effective way to get those t-shirts made

I've actually debated making an Etsy shop for all my knitted stuff a few times before but I never have the time to sort it all out. One day!

[notyourutopian]

You just have to make yourself do it or you never will.
That's how I was with my blog.

[complementing]

yeah probably huh? I'll have to see when I have a free weekend...

oooh a blogger! That's so cool! What do you blog about?

[notyourutopian]

Mostly politics. Local stuff.
Sometimes causes.
You know, 'save this park' or 'do you know this thing is happening?'

[complementing]

that's really cool. Can I have your blog? I'd love to follow it

oh wait would sharing it over this app be okay?

[notyourutopian]

If they already know my name I can't imagine they haven't found it.

It's at [totally made up link].

[complementing]

great! following now~
