Hello and happy new year! A lot of poll results came in from R&D and we've almost fixed taste all the way. Horses are almost fixed, too. We've been working pretty much non-stop around the holidays to stabilize everything, so I hope this works! Just so you guys know, while we were working on fixing the original problems we received some alerts of residual effects outside of our usual domain. Don't worry though! Remember what I said a while ago? We're still moving more resources around into better defenses to protect the city from huge storms like last summer. We'll be taking care of that really soon and isolating the unknown problem. I wish I could tell you more, but we're all working overtime here to finish the final stages of a big project. No matter what happens you guys should be safe while we finish up, so just stay calm, okay? Don't get too reckless! Joanne Wiseman Technician 2nd class Retrspec Incorporated As of this post taste tier 4 has been icly regained; tier 5 will go into effect on Saturday, January 6th at 9pm EST and taste will be fully restored!

Horses for my past life. I'm pretty sure I would remember giant birds running around.

And I'm not sure about the superhero part... but I'd like to think superheroes would be rewarded for their time and efforts!

[maidofmistakes]

I wonder how that works. I don't remember a whole lot, but I'm starting to put it together. Maybe the stuff we get back is rewarding us for putting up with losing senses and pieces of reality. It's still not the same as an award, though.

[imaginex]

Oh, I never thought of it that way...

Though the memories don't feel like much of a reward.

[maidofmistakes]

Oh... Have you gotten any powers or free stuff?

[imaginex]

My hair color changed, as well as my eyes.

[maidofmistakes]

That sounds pretty cool! I mean, it's not neon green, right?

[imaginex]

Oh no, nothing like that.

[And not having the heart to tell the other girl how much she hates it... well, moving on.]

Have you received anything?

[maidofmistakes]

Uh... I can see through walls and stuff now. It's actually kind of okay now that I have more of a hang of it.

[imaginex]

Oh wow, it's like you're a superhero!

Is that why you were asking about it?

[maidofmistakes]

Yeah! Sort of. I'm starting to remember more and I want it to start making more sense. Putting pieces together, that kind of thing.

[imaginex]

It does. Especially if you're getting powers back, the memories might help you control them better.

[maidofmistakes]

That's true. I really don't want to accidentally use this. Or have people think I did and spread rumours.

[imaginex]

Oh no, you're too nice for that. (๑˃ᴗ˂)ﻭ

But it would come in handy if you had to save people one day!

[maidofmistakes]

You think? I guess even if we don't have some kind of enemy to fight or something, there's always bank robbers and stuff.

[imaginex]

Absolutely. Petty crimes happen everywhere, and I'm sure the people you helped would be grateful.

[maidofmistakes]

Guess a mask and a costume would be good, but I don't know where to get that stuff.

[imaginex]

You can get a lot of cool things at the thrift store! Maybe some materials to make your own costume.

[maidofmistakes]

Maybe! I guess I could try it.

[imaginex]

Good luck!

Don't forget the mask! ... I think superheroes have masks, anyway.
