[recollecters]

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! Joanne Wiseman Technician 2nd class Retrspec Incorporated 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.

First, addressed to to Miss Wiseman: I suppose that I can agree with that much regarding April Fools pranks. The less troublesome, the better. All the same, we do have to deal with situations like this all the time, regardless of the holiday, so I hope that the maze helps you to understand things from our perspective.

To other users of the network: I notice that there seem to be new faces on the network. Unfortunately, this is not some elaborate prank, and you would do best to prepare for your concepts of reality itself to be challenged. A number of us are here to provide you with guidance should you need it. I myself have been honing my leadership skills as keenly as possible, and I don't mind guiding others.

I also currently happen to be curious about speaking to those with skills in the areas of art and animation.

[maidofmistakes]

Art and animation? Are you doing some kind of video?

I actually don't mind this prank at all! It's really cute!! (´ ∀ ` *) I love the cat ears!

I'm a little worried about that temporal storm though.

[unidolize]

I agree that this is one of the better tricks Retrospec's played on us. The cat ears are charming. They're a good look on you.

Have you ever experienced a temporal storm before? I'm not sure what to expect.

overflow + ota

[heiroglyphs]

Okay so
What is a temporal storm.
What is it localized to.
And what do you mean it will mostly miss the planet?

[missingache]

If you look at the definition for temporal, the storms probably has more to do with time and space than world affairs.
But don't quote me on that.
With these people it could be something completely different.

What, nothing for Easter? Shall we presume Retrospec is a secular organization, then?
I'm shocked.
(That's my April Fool's joke.)

You could have combined the two-- put everyone in bunny filters for their userpic, like I did my cat on Instagram.
But I suppose as far as April Fool's, I've seen worse jokes today.

Anyway I have a friend's birthday party coming up, I figured showering him with sweets might be cool. Or having a sobert bathtub or something.

Otherwise if it works out well maybe as parties for celebrations man idk I'm just tired of having the same company for food.

Judging from the replies, this app doesn't appear to be malicious. But I don't appreciate the download without my approval. Let's not have a repeat of the U2 incident.

Also, that photo's not authorized for use. You'll hear from my agent.

A separate 'unreality', huh. Sounds a little farfetched. But that's as good an explanation as any. Better than mass hallucinations, provided all this is true.

the more things change, i guess. i'm not surprised that a new disaster is impending, but in the words of several parents across the world, i am disappointed. it's like waking up from a coma and finding out everything sucks about as much as it did before you were in a coma.
in fact, that's exactly it.
happy early birthday to me. awesome.

couple of things. one: my assumption is that some sort of time discrepancy is about to happen. would this be a first, or is it old hat by now? i'm playing catch-up here, bear with me.
two, to anyone who remembers me: hi.

What makes you think time discrepancy?

Also hey you. <3

[floret]

I don't think I'm familiar with the really good natured kind...

If it's temporal and it's going to "send things through," I guess that means things from either the past or future? Or from another timeline that isn't necessarily ahead of or behind us.

If we find a four-leaf clover, how are we meant to pass it along?

Atsushi's a nice boy, I don't mean to give him short shrift by calling him an acquaintance. We've only started talking outside of the bakery recently, and given his age, it's strange to think of him as a friend.

Given MY age, not his. 18's a perfectly good age, I'm just older than time.

He didn't want the ants to die, though freezing the water just made sure they'd die instead of being washed away.
