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.

you make them sound like some sort of league of villains
they're a social media app
is it that addictive or what?

[scythegun]

Well, they'd tell you that they're trying to save worlds, but I don't know how much of what they say can be believed!

As for the social media aspect... it's about what you'd expect. I wouldn't say it's any more addicting than any other social media platform.

[diamant]

since you seem very self-aware about this
you still sound completely and utterly insane
who knows, though, maybe i'll use this to keep in contact with all of you once my time here ends
it really is a lovely city

[scythegun]

Oh, I know. I don't expect people to believe me!

[then why bother with this in the first place??]

Recollé is wonderful, isn't it? I'm originally from Germany but I've come to think of this city as home! There isn't anywhere else I'd rather be~!

[diamant]

i'm from japan myself
an island just south of the main one
i'm still not utterly familiar with the language yet
but i've picked up a lot since coming to america for a while

[scythegun]

Welcome to Recollé! What brings you to our lovely city?

[diamant]

business!

[scythegun]

I hope you've had some free time to look around the city, then! I've never been to Japan so I can't say how it compares, but it really is wonderful!

[diamant]

this city is much larger than the one i'm used to
it's very beautiful, and filled with beautiful people
i've been enjoying my time here, i'm going to have to leave eventually but i'm all right with seeing it for a while
you ought to see japan sometime, though, if traveling interests you

[scythegun]

It absolutely does! I've been to plenty of countries in Europe, but I haven't gotten out much lately. I do sort of miss it, but it's been nice settling down here.

[diamant]

any reason why you stopped?

[scythegun]

I had a few personal reasons, but ultimately what it came down to was needing a change of pace!

[that is absolutely not what happened.]

[diamant]

absolutely
that's why i'm here right now
i've been trying to see the world lately
as much of it as i can

[scythegun]

It's fun, isn't it? Have you been to many other countries or is this your first stop?

[diamant]

i've been to america a long time ago but i didn't see much of it then
but yes, i've been to parts of europe
i didn't stay long in germany, it was more passing through, but i've been there
before you told me i would have guessed you're from there based on the name
either there or austria, somewhere in there that spells things like that

[...and you know

names their kids gunther]

[scythegun]

[Oh, right...!]

You can call me Jaeger! I don't really use the name on the app! But yes, my name certainly does make it obvious, doesn't it? How did you enjoy Germany while you were there?

[diamant]

the scenery was very unique, in a way that i hadn't seen before
very pretty, very rustic
you get the feeling that it's a very old country compared to america, everything is new here
whereas there's history in europe
i wouldn't mind going back and actually staying for a while

[scythegun]

It really is lovely, isn't it?

[Ah, but talking about it is making him a little homesick...]

Well, if you have any other questions about this app in the future, I can attempt to answer them!
