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.

But this doesn’t say anything about if the dome is going to come down or not? I miss the sun! I miss proper sleep schedules! If I had houseplants they’d all be dead by now! What gives?

A storm of souls sounds like a real pain in the ass too. Christmas was bad enough. How are they gonna mess up Valentine’s now?

[ascatic]

Hm.

I suppose by accidentally killing everyone. However, I do not know if that would be the worst case scenario, given how things can happen.

Alternatively, they could replace heart-shaped decorations with actual hearts.

[activatingcombatmode]

Holy wow yeah? That's be bad??

You're going down the literal route here. Let's hope they don't think the same as you! I'm fine with candy hearts!

[maidhem]

Maybe they just want to make a mess of every holiday?

I don't know. It's a little scary, but I think we'll be okay.

[activatingcombatmode]

Not sure I like their idea of fun. I almost got strangled out at Christmas. Geeze.

Glad you're being positive about it, guess that's what we gotta do.

[compendiem]

You can use an alarm for proper sleep schedules. ...Have you not been sleeping regularly the past month?

[activatingcombatmode]

Yeah I do but I'm also used to waking up with the sun. Force of habit, you know? It's just making me feel all sorts of tired.

[Amongst other things, but he doesn't need to tell John those things.]

[fiddlestick]

Yeah, I ended up buying a sunlamp for my flowers.
Poor things.

Why are you worried about Valentine's day?
Do you have plans?

[activatingcombatmode]

I'm worried about Valentine's because they did all that goofy crap for Christmas!!

I don't have plans. Yet.

[nachetanya]

Porsche seems to be more on schedule than me, I've been relying on her tbh

[activatingcombatmode]

Really? Too bad Tesla's crap at anything other than wrecking my walls...

[unidolize]

Zackary! There you are!

[activatingcombatmode]

Dia?! What the hell you got the app??

[embearass]

It seems as though they don't intend for us to enjoy any sort of holiday around here.

[activatingcombatmode]

It's bullshit! I guess I can be happy that we've got taste back so they can't ruin beer again. I can celebrate beer.

[dejerate]

Wait. Valen -- oh. That's the holiday they meant.
I guess that does explain all the flowers and chocolates coming out or whatever lately.

[activatingcombatmode]

Don't tellme kids don't know what Valentines is these days?

[unromanceable]

Um... I don't know that much about what's going on here. Could the dome be what she means by "emergency measures"?

This is all really weird, by the way.

[activatingcombatmode]

Ahh hell... New to the app, then...

Yeah, weird is the easiest way to explain it. As for the dome? I couldn't really tell you what it means but it's gonna be something messed up, I'm sure.

You doing okay?

[angealwings]

Houseplants do well with an UV light.

Which does not make your question any less valid. Further question is, how will the dome not interfere with the storm itself?

Or is it there to keep the storm *in*?

I apologize, Zack, I know that you don't have the answers. But as it does not seem to be many answers from the source, these may be a little helpful to prepare.

[activatingcombatmode]

I don't know, man. Retrospec is a bunch of confusing bullshit.

They like to keep all their posts vague and secret too. As far as I can guess, the dome is to keep us in and the storm is gonna mess up a bunch of things to make the higher ups laugh their asses off.

Welcome to the app, Andrew...

[usurpers]

did you really expect more or

[activatingcombatmode]

[grumpei]
