SURVEY
does anybody remember recolle existing at all in whatever world you're remembering stuff from
bc i havent met anyone who does so far
even when people remember plenty of places that do exist like towns in japan or countries and cities in europe
i haven't seen anyone who remembers recolle yet
if anyone does remember it speak up now
if no one does then it must mean....something
idk what

other than that
if anyone wants to go looking for the tunnels that we found in august don't bother
i just tried them and they're basically gone
like they never even existed
can't even find the entrances to them
the same might happen to the new ones too after a while
so if you want to go looking in them do it sooner rather than later

EDIT 1/23/18: if any rich people are willing to donate a gopro to livestream the subway tunnels
hmu
we're trying to find out what happens when they close up next too

To your second question, talk to Yoon-sung Lee. He’s been wanting to leverage his money and tech to help with investigations.

Are you looking for static cameras or do you need something to walk the length of a tunnel?

On your first point, no, but my counter point is that I don’t remember anything about what any of America is like in what Retrospec is showing me.

i was thinking static
streaming 24/7
what were you thinking
some kind of patrolling cambot in the tunnels?
but yeah i'll ask yoonsung too

yeah fair
are the places you remember at least real places
as in ones that also exist irl

Okay that makes a lot more sense. You say 'GoPro' and my first thought was those people that strap them on and run over buildings.

Yes. Niihama, Ehime Prefecture. But. Mm, how do I put this?

What I've been seeing is a lot more built up than Niihama is right now. Geographically, it's a little isolated to be such a major metropolitan area that I'm seeing.

nah i just said gopro because they're supposed to be good for withstanding damage and rough handling
who knows what crazy crap could take a camera out down there
but hey maybe someone SHOULD be running around down there with a gopro strapped on them
in case they find something a stationary camera couldn't catch

so niihama's the same but different
any idea why it's so much bigger how you remember it?

Uh.

So.

Funny story.

I can give you full footage of the trips I took down there. Might be shaky, but it's all there.

[Togusa's next message is a picture. It is a shot of Togusa looking directly into a mirror. But he isn't holding a camera, or his phone, or anything else. So how did he take the picture?]

As for Niihama, maybe it's just a question of how far in the future what Retrospec is showing me is. Then Tokyo would have to be massive. But.

It's odd that a National Public Security Bureau would be centered in Niihama, not Tokyo.

????
i don't get it
is this supposed to be from a photoshoot or something
...were you doing a photoshoot in the tunnels?

well maybe something happened to tokyo then

I just took that photo. Right now. Oh, you can figure this one out. So where's the camera?

Well. Okay. Here's what's weird about it. Quick geography lesson. Remember that we're really talking about a series of islands.

Tokyo is there in the green section, while Niihama is in Ehime, the purple section. It's a completely separate island, technically. One with a lot of mountainous areas, too. So, that's how isolated I mean.

i don't get it
do you have it hidden in your clothes somewhere
is this some fancy new police spy tech

okay well
still sounds like something happened to tokyo
maybe an attack
then your remote mountainous city would be a more secure place to build up

It's in my eyes.
My entire brain got an upgrade. Everything I see and hear can get stored digitally now. Like converting the way your memory normally works into a new format.

[ what the fuck ]

what the FUCK
your BRAIN got an upgrade??
like a DIGITAL BRAIN
as in your brain's basically a usb drive now?
they just DID THAT to you?
holy shit

[ taking his arm is one thing--that's just getting rid of something that was already there. But to completely rewire (replace?) the BRAIN is a whole 'nother level of invasiveness. ]

so you just blink and bam
whatever you just saw gets uploaded as a jpeg?

Little more complicated than that. Functionally, though, yes. I can store anything that I see and hear, anything that I remember. I just got back a way to store them externally, so I need to test out how well other people can see what I have seen. If anybody needs a second look at what I saw in the tunnels? I think I can give it to them.

what about with your retrospec memories
like can you just upload them for anyone to see rl footage of this 'other world'?

Hunh. Haven't given that a try yet.

It'll take me a bit hooked up to the machine, but, got any special requests?

I heard my name.

Well. Read.

Anyways sure, I might have a couple laying around that we don't use any more because old gear is old.

nice
how many you got?

Looks like a couple. They're not the best gear, but probably still working.

better than nothing
when can you hook me up with them?

Whenever. No one really uses these ones since we got the new batch.

i'll drop by your fancy office building after school a few days from now then
or just loiter in the parking lot until you come out
depends on if the receptionist kicks me out or not

My one receptionist has purple hair and a nose ring, and the other one is currently trying to get my PA to go to lunch with her. I doubt they would even blink at you unless you're wearing those shorts.

It's the two nerds guarding the DDR machine with their backscratchers you might want to be careful of. I regret putting several anime songs on that thing.
