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.

That's always important.

[mercurio]

yeah
thanks for keeping an eye out for me dude

[odasaku]

You're welcome, but I'm not doing that much...

[mercurio]

you kinda are
even if it isn't a direct thing

[odasaku]

Well, if you say so.

[mercurio]

i'll make extra sure to be in bed by 9
no heroic hour delay to catch up with netflix or anything

[odasaku]

Good. Although I don't know how much you can catch up on netflix with just an hour.

Get a good breakfast, too.

[mercurio]

it'll be slow progress but something's something
you're sounding like a dad a lot lol

[odasaku]

Really?

[mercurio]

or an older brother?
it's not meant to be offending!

[odasaku]

I'm not offended. It's just weird.

My other self used to be a father, or something like that.

[mercurio]

and you're nowhere close to be a dad right?

[odasaku]

Yeah, exactly. But I still feel nostalgic, which is why it's weird.

[mercurio]

dude that's what memories do
even if they're our past self's memories

[odasaku]

Yeah, I guess so. But I've never gotten used to it, no matter how hard I try.

[mercurio]

yeah it's one of those things
completely kinda out of left field sometimes
have memories been the only thing you've "gotten back"?

[odasaku]

No. I've gotten back some things.

You?

[mercurio]

memories and physical changes and a whole cargo truck full of weapons
the usual retrospec triad of wonders

[odasaku]

A cargo truck full?

What did you do with it?

[ this is way more than anything odasaku expected?? ]

[mercurio]

ok that's a bit of an exaggeration
like eight or so
i kept them obviously

[odasaku]

So you just have all of that in your closet. Hopefully the police never searches your house.

[mercurio]

not in the closet! not anymore anyway
the police will never find my gun stash

[mercurio]

i realize that makes me sound kind of ... alarming
but i promise i just got a bunch of guns and idk what to do with them
and i'm not like... using them all the time or anything

i used to be a mercenary in my other life or whatever!

[odasaku]

Oh.

I was an assassin.

And then a mafioso.

[mercurio]

the dark side of crime........... awesome
