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!

Outside of your responsibilities at the store, as long as you represent yourself well in all things... then I will always thank you.

[ :thinking:

murky at best, scandalous at worst, and in either scenario? kind of flattering mixed with a lowkey amount of dread ]

I really don't know about "all things". . . But I do know that you're a very magnanimous person!

[ He wonders whether Leon knows he smokes pot???? (Like not ON THE JOB OBVIOUSLY but)

The bestselling ethical trilogy that began in Fifty Shades of Murk and continued in Fifty Shades Scandalouser now concludes with the thousand-page epic, Fifty Shades of Dreadful Flattery. Rated T for Teen. ]

Um
By the way. I've kind of just been asking you about a bunch of inane things, but about Retrospec . . .
Are you, you know
Good?
I mean, not morally or whatever. I mean, how are you?

[ he... look, he's a wise ol' cat. he smells things. it doesn't bother him as long as he keeps it out of his shop???

would buy a few of those books for the shelves, dohoho ]

I am... fine.
For now.
I suppose that things could be better or worse, but to see what others have been seeing after some time?
It is odd to live in a world, to have lived in another world, but also for others to not understand it.

The oddest feeling.

But I am glad I am not alone.

[floret]

I am, too.
Glad I'm not alone.
Well, glad neither of us is. Or any of us.

It seems like almost everyone I talk to is managing to handle it pretty well, though . . .
all things considered.

[ Better than he did, at least. But he's definitely completely sure he's fine now. ]

I cannot imagine what it might have been like, to be the first one who realized they were and were not who they thought they were.

That is... terrifying. On many levels.

However: I do not know how I will fare. Perhaps the memories will grow stronger? More offensive and pervasive? It is a mystery. So, I will hope for your support...

[floret]

I think it'd be easier to handle if we could just get back in touch with people in the outside world.

Or maybe it wouldn't matter. I don't know.

I'll support you however I can.
