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.

Oh don't get me wrong, this will definitely fuck with you if you give it enough time. My ex has a flower growing out of her eye and I know this girl who can summon a giant woman with her brain. Pretty sure I'm only so chill about it because I haven't been hit with a bunch of crap yet.

The last big memory I got was someone jumping down from like 30 feet up and stabbing a robot with a sword that shoots lightning. Pretty sure I used to be that person, but I have less than nothing to go on. A lot of this stuff is like putting puzzle pieces together when they all look the same.

a flower growing out of her eye?
yikes that sounds awful
i guess this whole thing can't be all fun

this sounds like one of those things that's just going to be completely crazy until i see it for myself
which will probably be happening shortly if what you guys have told me is any indication

Yeah, it's not great. But she's been through worse, so I think she can handle it. Probably. I don't think this thing gives us anything we can't power through, but I'm also a newbie so who knows.

Anyway, yeah. It's absolutely wild until it starts happening to you. I got my first memory on, like, my first day here? Depends on whatever triggers it, I guess. I was just talking to someone on the network and he said some kind of fucking sleeper cell code word or whatever and there I was remembering shit.
