LOADING...OVERFLOW

[recollecters]

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!

☆ these two are embarrassing ( zhong hui )

Right? I'm glad someone understands. ❤

[ This is the most gross conversation that she's ever had on Retrospec... kill her now. ]

I feel like the point is moot, really. After people have been dealing with it for months, it's only obvious that the company itself cares less about us and more about their own personal well being.

dat subject title ( is true )

[hairstroke]

[ That heart causes him to blush and grin irl ]

Yeah, without a doubt. I've only had this for a month and it's become evident that they only care about themselves and we're all just unfortunate victims that got dragged into this.

No matter what ridiculous thing they end up throwing at us, you can count on me to protect you.

[ He's just going to add onto the grossness of this conversation... someone destroy him. ]

100% fact

[promisedyou]

Like even if the miniscule amount that they've given us is true, they're still hiding things from us. It's a huge pain.

But oh~? Does that mean you're going to be my knight in shining armor?

[hairstroke]

Exactly. We still don't know much of anything about this creepy application. After reading this message, I'm certain they'll mess up something else.

Of
course I'll be your knight in shining armor. Should something happen to you, I'll rush over to your side and save you. With me around, anyone will regret messing with you.

[ It's a good thing they are talking via the network, because he's looking like a red blob after typing out such a bold message. ]

[promisedyou]

If they do, I'll blame you for jinxing it.

But good, I appreciate that you'd come.

[hairstroke]

Hey! You can't blame me for stating the obvious.

[promisedyou]

Too late, already am. ☆

[hairstroke]

The next time I see you in person, I'm pulling on your cheeks. Be prepared.

[promisedyou]

Okay.

[hairstroke]

Wow
How did you know that's my favorite Gisney song?

[promisedyou]

That much should be obvious, right? ☆

[hairstroke]

I'm impressed you know me so well.

So, tell me Mio.

Do you see me for the wonder that I am?

[ Did he run his hand through his hair after he typed that out? Absolutely. ]

[promisedyou]

That's my job, you know.

But no, sorry, I don't.

[ She's well aware that this is public so while she can be a little embarrassing, she... has her limits. ]

[hairstroke]

"Your job" then I look forward to what other things you can guess correctly about me before I tell you.

Hey! Surely you must be joking.

[ Leon stop being gross on a public network. ]

[promisedyou]

I'll do my best. ☆

But as for whether I'm joking or not... isn't that for you to find out?

[hairstroke]

I suppose that makes it more fun when you put it like that. I'll just have to ask you in person, then.

AND SUDDENLY, OUT OF NOWHERE

[cardcaptured]

[Okay, so he may have gotten on Mio's case for following his Retrospec conversations in the past, but with her history of bugging Leon, he couldn't help but keep an eye on this exchange unfolding on the network--

... except now he's regretting it because nani the fuck is going on here]

You two do realize this is a public network, right?

[promisedyou]

Of course I do. ☆

It's not like I'm saying anything on here that I'm hiding, unlike a certain someone...

[cardcaptured]

awelifxc

I'm not hiding anything!!

[CHILD THERE'S A RIVER IN EGYPT YOU NEED TO VISIT]

1/????

[hairstroke]

2/????

[hairstroke]

[............ ]

3/????

[hairstroke]

[ WELL, HE DONE FUCKED UP ]

4/OKAY I'M DONE

[hairstroke]

[ There's a delay before he finally responds to his cousin. HE SWEARS he planned on telling him eventually, he just wasn't ready to bring this up quite yet. God, he really should have made his messages to Mio private. Some "genius" he is... ]

Yes.

[ That's it. That's the message. ]

not here

[promisedyou]

[ She's laughing at this message though, she can't imagine how long it took him to figure out how embarrassing he was being. Rest in pieces, Leon...... ]

THAT MULTIPARTER WAS WORTH IT

[cardcaptured]

[Is this karma for keeping tabs on him on the network? YOU BET YOUR ASS IT IS]

You both are gross.

[OWCH, XIAOLANG.]

I'm not sure I want to know what happened here.
