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!

For the remainder of the day all users will have their userpic replaced with a picture of them dressed as their favorite animal. 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.

I want to fight the murderfrog.

I thought you did???

I don't envy your position at all.
It was hard enough looking after the people I care about.
Having to take care of everyone sounds terrible.

Mods, this is a good boss fight

murder f o g

it's not the taking care of everyone that's the bad part.
and honestly, it's not that bad overall, it's just annoying
when there's murder FOG outside
heiroglyphs: (can you not right now?)

Well I wasn't in your fog!
My fog had wolves
Maybe your frog had fog!
Fog had frog*

I hate this.

[personal profile] browbeater 2018-04-02 02:38 am (UTC)(link)
who knows, that fog had lots of things
the point is that everything in that frog tried to kill me

**fog
wow.

See? You're doing it too!
I'm just going to call them "amphibians" for the rest of this conversation.
Save us all the trouble.
browbeater: Take a chill pill, god. There are no airbenders. (Sir my ancestors took care of that.)

[anyway he's adding a note to her profile for his memory: frog girl]

fine by me, that saves us both the trouble. but anyway, nothing's been unavoidable for a bit.
and it'd be BS if something happened after everything we did in february
heiroglyphs: (so run that by me again)

[delete this nephew]

But you know something's going to happen anyway.
Something always happens.
It's just a matter of whether what we did ultimately makes things better or worse.

[no, vera lives as "frog girl" forever in his phone]

i haven't thought about it too much. i haven't actually put too much thought into what happened, since we haven't gotten anymore information
like usual

but whatever's happening feels a lot more serious than it did before
heiroglyphs: (huff)

[personal profile] heiroglyphs 2018-04-03 12:24 am (UTC)(link)
It always feels more serious than before.
Yet somehow it keeps getting worse.

isn't that the definition of serious, in this case. serious = worse, as in greater consequences as time goes on.

i dunno, maybe we should just prepare for that.

[personal profile] heiroglyphs 2018-04-05 04:03 am (UTC)(link)
I know what the definition of "serious" is.
I just don't know how to prepare for the worst anymore
When "the worst" always seems to be even worse than the last time.
