You know, I think some April Fool's pranks are okay! Like the silly ones they do on websites or the really good natured kind. But I am LESS okay with someone changing the ENTIRE layout of our entire building and giving us treasure maps to go around it which for the record my brother-in-law did and it's a pain!! There's some weird effects coming in from outside this planet at the moment, although they'll mostly miss the city itself. There'll be a localized temporal storm, but it shouldn't be more than a mild irritation. It looks like it's just going to yank some things around and send them on through. I think Maurice is going to call out sick that day, or if I were him I definitely would. Hey, I kind of want a four-leaf clover. I know that's more last month than this month, but still. If you find one, pass it along. Also, I want to do a cutesy April Fools thing, so don't get too mad!

It's pretty harmless as far as pranks go, and it will change back either at midnight or after trying to change the picture twice, prompting an "Are you sure?" message but no further ill effects.

Oh! Now how did she get over there?

Didn't take too well to a place that already had four cats? Sorry.

[mercurio]

ardyn brought her over! and it's okay
i love her and i think she will love me soon

misclick sorry

[standalonehuman]

I knew a kitten was a gamble, but she just looked up at me and mewled, was I supposed to resist that? Not me.

[mercurio]

where did you find her at?

[standalonehuman]

The shelter. Somebody brought in a whole litter, but Ruby was separated from the others. Her brothers were being aggressive, she would've gotten hurt.

[mercurio]

aww i'm so glad she's found a good permanent home now
no wonder she's kinda shy

[standalonehuman]

I'm glad you'll take care of her.

So, did Ardyn mention why I got him a cat, though?

[mercurio]

uhh a gift?

[standalonehuman]

Ask him what occasion I got him the gift for.

I can never tell with him, what he wants shouted from the rooftops and what he is keeping close to his chest, you know?

[mercurio]

oh the whole marriage thing right

[standalonehuman]

OH THANK HELL, YOU ALREADY KNOW.

But you know what I mean, then! He's being cagey about this, which he doesn't normally do?

I found out on accident.

[mercurio]

i dunno about cagey
i asked him and he mentioned it easy as pie
he and grell are just the private type so i'm not surprised there was no ceremony

[standalonehuman]

I mean.
I still shouldn't have had to go check Grell's profile to find out that Ardyn was married?
And thanks, Retrospec, for being creepy and changing her display name immediately.

[mercurio]

you shouldn't have?? some people just like being.. quiet
no fanfares about it
romantically speaking you only get married for someone else
and i'm not really super surprised they didn't throw a party or announced it
it's more their style to just do it quietly and then be like "oh right surprise"

[standalonehuman]

Maybe you've got the measure of them better than I do, then. Never quite lost the impression of Professor 'Every-damn-thing is a Production' Izunia.

It is way more romantic this way.

[mercurio]

it's not that i know them "better" i just think that if i wanted to do something like that too
maybe i wouldn't be big on announcing it either
so i kinda get it
