Hello, everyone! As you've probably noticed, we've been having a few problems - I mentioned earlier that something got knocked out of balance, and we had to recalibrate, but in a few days we should be able to drop the emergency measures. Please be aware that there is an incoming storm, class four. General orders for that kind of thing are to report to management for any known threats and follow instructions, but so far what's known is "that might be a little annoying" and "hope it isn't". Theoretically it'll probably be related to the holiday, I think, because a large group of souls focused through the needle of a pin on one thing can sort of shape a thing around them.

That's sort of a really inaccurate way to put it on the technical side of things, but I think it's the easiest way to understand it! At any rate, we'll know more once we're in the thick of things. Please take care as usual; resources aren't exactly what some of you seem to think they are, and we had to expend rather more than usual in the past month or so to keep things with a few of you steady.

I really hope what we talked about doesn't come true.

yeah fingers crossed because i am not emotionally prepared for wandering heart monstrosities

Neither am I. A lot of people are mentioning cupids. Honestly I'd rather have the cupids as bad as that would be.

maybe we should start carrying around shields to avoid any wayward arrows

We might need to buy heavy duty umbrellas for the rains of either chocolate or confetti, depending on who you ask.

raining chocolate or confetti is a better option than i'm expecting at this point

but also i hope that's true because free chocolate. as long it's like chocolate bars coming down and not liquid chocolate.

What are you expecting?

Raining chocolate bars would seriously hurt.

something way more embarrassing

also please consider: you could hold a bucket over your head and collect chocolate

you just gotta 💖 the double hedging going on there!

theoretically probably we have a good idea of what might happen, maybe!

i do not love it at all

in fact it is quite the opposite

i was being sarcastic mostly

but it's really, REALLY astonishing how uncertain their sentences are sometimes!

[overflow]

thanks for jinxing us nat.

pretty sure reality would have gone sideways even if i hadn't gotten bored at midnight and texted everyone

ok but can you prove that?

you can't expect me to prove a negative
