LOADING...OVERFLOW

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!

I'm glad that we have most of taste back, but there's a few things that concern me.

1. Doesn't "don't get reckless" cause people to get reckless to begin with?
2. Who here actually thinks that whatever their 'big project' is, it's actually going to protect us?

Even so, it's still good to be optimistic, right? Even if it's cautiously so.

Well this DOES give me a reasonable excuse to throw myself back into the culinary arts again!

Though I have to wonder, what particular form of arts does the Japanese Tea Ceremony fall under? This seems like it should have a simple answer, but it really doesn't, huh?

Maybe. But I don't want to assume either way. And yeah, basically.

As I told someone else, all art is cultural, whether geographical or otherwise. We cannot create art within a cultural-less vacuum.

It is interesting to think about, right?

That's true, but having it be said makes it a lot more tempting, don't you think?

It is quite the thing to ponder, right? I suppose one could call it a very unique form of multi-media.

Oh, you're talking about Kotone, right? We're sisters.

Honestly, it's better to be overprepared than under, most of the time.

And no. It didn't screw with me when I was doing things properly. But don't worry, sis, if that happens to you, I'll make sure to call an ambulance, okay? ☆

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.

Alright... But is it okay for you to try venting your feelings somewhere else?

You don't have to!
But it's nice to set up goals for yourself
Even if you don't meet them within the year
You feel good once you do

Looks like it.

I don't think I'll be entirely convinced until they do something that benefits us that isn't like... just simply "fixing their mistakes".

Like i said you don't have to meet it within the year
As long as you think about it and not push it so close
Like building a muscle
