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.

Well, four-leaf clovers are pretty nice.

And it's a pretty nice prank, as far as I'm concerned. Worse things have happened in the past.

[ Says the guy with a picture of him dressed like a squirrel. Hm. Okay. ]

That sounds quite complicated, I'm afraid I don't really understand what it's supposed to be.
But a lot of things that kids do these days can confuse me.

[diamant]

same for me really
i don't claim to know what they're doing
but as long as they're having fun

[wordcarvings]

Yes, that is the most important thing.
So long as nobody gets harmed.

[diamant]

this certainly is a way to make yourself feel old though isn't it
talking about the kids these days

A joke? What a peculiar one.
But I've heard that april fool's pranks sometimes can be much less harmless than this.

[thebeastwithout]

yeah it can get a little out of hand

last year someone brought a lizard to school and you don't really want to know what happened next

[spoilers gar brought a lizard to school]

[wordcarvings]

It sure seems like it.
I'm guessing chaos. Why would somebody do that?

[thebeastwithout]

uh i don't know i think he thought it would be funny but he didn't realize the, um, long-term consequences of his actions and by then it was too late to stop mrs. hurley from living up to her name

...not that i would know

anyway!

april fools is serious business man

As are we. Things could have been very different if she had not been handling messages now.

[liberal_arts]

Don't misunderstand me. I'm not about to start praising them, either. Thinking this is a novel diversion doesn't really change how terrible they are at their alleged jobs.

[wordcarvings]

I didn't think that you were about to, and I don't think just one or two little things will make any of those who have been through a lot to be about to do otherwise. Nothing will get better in this matter just like that.

Well, it can be difficult sometimes. But it's worth it so I don't mind.

[thesettingsun]

Let me know the next time your stuff is in an exhibition. I ought to support my fellow artist/ink person.

[wordcarvings]

I'm flattered. I'll try to remember to tell you.

It is. It's true, we can't remove it on our own accord and a lot of crazy things can happen because of it. Or perhaps we are aware of things not being normal or things being crazy because we have it, since, if it's uninstalled from someone's phone, they forget about it.

I suppose so. But, it's not all fun.

[tailchasing]

what's not all fun??

those monster-things??

[wordcarvings]

For example, yes. Having your mind messed with like this isn't all that fun either.

Togusa

Did I? I see.

[ He doesn't want to make him worry.. ]

Great! I'll make sure to make enough for us both!

Re: Togusa

[standalonehuman]

You spoil me.

It's not inspiration in a bad way. If I want to try to be at peace with the things I'm seeing in the other life. Then I should probably start by trying to be more at peace with my own life.

[wordcarvings]

Never.

Oh. That makes sense, and I hope that it works out for you.

[beneathmoonlight]

[Atsushi has white tiger ears.]

You’re the first squirrel I’ve seen!

[wordcarvings]

I haven't seen any other squirrels either, but that's fine.
Your ears are very cute.

[beneathmoonlight]

Oh, thank you!

Tigers are beautiful creatures. Especially white ones.
