1) don't be dumb. my name isn't a pun on wendigo. i'm not a wendigo. i'm a humanoid from aht.
2) i can probably kill you more efficiently than a wendigo anyway? what the fuck do they even do?
3) i don't care about the other inane bullshit enough to comment.

ok, the number list thing is boring as fuck. moving on. the kids talked about grabbing souls and them being knocked out of alignment last time. i'm allowed to pick one damn thing to clarify here within a bullshit rulebook, so let's clear up this: it's not like anyone is picking and choosing which to grab. one soul looks pretty much like another, you know? i've been waiting a pretty long time to see if any will be from my homeworld.

none of you are.

not like they're trying to grab anyone in particular. but if you were wondering about "why" it's "because you were fucking there". think of it like a band of traveling hoarders. they see remnants of a world in a mess of shards and pick them up before the shards disappear. i was a shard, but i still had my body. i also happened to not be on aht when it met its end.

they don't stay put. pieces and bits of whatever. they travel, and some of them are already here, because you are. so i stick around because maybe eventually someone they pull out of the dark might be someone i knew.

but yeah, no one gives a single fuck about worth. that's the mystical how do you choose me or this other person i remember who deserves it more answer: you happened to be there, and they weren't. or they haven't been yet. you're welcome.

Hi! Just so you know, we've re-stabilized green! Although I see some alerts on my screen so that's not great, something else got knocked out? I have to go figure out what.

But as a tip, unreality functions on a lot of loopholes. Try carrying some words around or thinking outside of the box if you get into a pinch, okay?

As of this post green has been entirely returned to the world and everyone's sense of taste has officially disappeared. You win some, you lose some. Please note that as tiers are reached we may delay them by a week or so per tier in order to allow people to play with the loss effects! While the world regains post may be used for OOC knowledge, please know that nothing is in effect until a mod-announcement goes up (this may be an IC announcement as well, depending.)

The freebie that can be earned on this post requires one thread featuring at least five comments from you with one new character. Please note, we define "new character" as any of the incoming new characters from the application round (regardless of TDM tags you may have done with them) or any in-game character your character has not threaded with before. As usual, this regain should be turned into our regains request post with "December Freebie" and the qualifying thread link in the explanation section! As notated above, this freebie will not qualify past December.

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.

Kaede, you got the app as well? They're really adding everyone now...

I don't know if I can answer a lot but if you have any questions, I can try to answer.

Wait, you have it too?

I don't even know where to start... What is this post about?

Yeah, I technically had it in August for about a day before I got it permanently in September. It hasn't deleted itself from my phone since.

Honestly, that's what I want to know, but I think it's referring to the fact that we've had "other lives" and maybe how we were picked to... remember them? It's pretty hard to explain.

Other lives? What do you mean? If you can't really explain, that's fine but... I want to know what you know about it at least.

I'm pretty sure it only affects the people who have the app but after you get it, you'll start to get "memories" of another life or world. It'll feel real and like you actually experienced them.

Some people found some reports that seemed to confirm that these memories really are ours and that we're the people in them.

Do you think those are really memories? Do you think those reports are true?

[ WHY IS SHE HITTING HIM WITH SUCH HEAVY QUESTIONS he was literally just talking about this with his roommate and both kaguya and kyouko about this stuff... kaede, let him live for about a few minutes (which is exactly how long it takes before she gets this next reply because he has to think and rewrite this) ]

To be completely honest, I don't really know. It's hard to say because Retrospec could be lying to us about everything but at the same time, it doesn't make sense for them to do this elaborate scheme and give everyone their own personalized memories or worlds. It's way too complicated for that.

At this point, I think it's up to each person on whether or not they want to believe if these memories are real. I also think people wouldn't really blame others if they choose not to believe in them.

[ Waiting for a few minutes is agonizing, but her questions weren't exactly easy ones to answer either. ]

I see. This... is a lot to take in. I guess it really wouldn't make sense for all of this to be some kind of sick prank, though.

But I'll probably have to wait to see exactly what it's like to get these memories before I can really decide for myself, huh?

Yeah, I don't think it's easy to take in, even for the people who've been on the app for a while, so it's okay if you can't take it in right away.

The nice thing about the app is that it connects us to a bunch of people who are all in the same boat as us so at the very least, you have a lot of people who understand what you're going through. Most of the people I've met over the network are pretty nice about this stuff and in general.

Yeah, at least there's a bright side to all of this. I don't know what I'd do if no one else was going through the same thing... As much as I hate that others are having to deal with all of this too.
