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.

Oh?

[odasaku]

I was in the mafia. And an assassin.

[lienhearts]

Yikes

[odasaku]

Yeah.

Now I'm a bartender, so it's an upgrade.

[lienhearts]

Sounds like it

The memories people get back aren't like...

Fundamentally changing people. Are they?

As long as it's you just looking through the lens at some old memories instead of the other way around, that's better, I'd think

[odasaku]

Guess so. Although it’s unsettling when you also remember the emotions, or lack thereof, of the memories. Or when you get the guns used. It’s like they’re trying to lead you.

[lienhearts]

What did you do with the guns

[odasaku]

They're in my apartment somewhere.

[lienhearts]

Damn

Bad enough waiting to see what new and exciting ways the app will mess up your life without shit like that

[odasaku]

What do you mean?

[lienhearts]

Suddenly having to account for weapons showing up out of the blue

[odasaku]

Yeah. Let's hope I never give the police reason to come to my place. It'd be awkward to explain this.

[lienhearts]

There's some of them on this app, right?

Maybe you could get help from them? In the worst case scenario anyway

[It's partially musing to himself, though, because let's be real, this may well be something he has to worry about in the future too.]

[odasaku]

I guess that's true.

But I don't know any of them.

[lienhearts]

Pretty easy to change that if you want to

Maybe I should try contacting a few myself

[Connections are important.]

[odasaku]

Maybe I could try that. But wouldn't it be too suspicious to make a post on the app asking for people who work in the police force?

[lienhearts]

Depends on how you word it

If you say you'd like tips from authority figures on what to do about some of your memories or gifts, I don't think that's too suspicious

A lot of people are getting blindsided by this shit it sounds like

[odasaku]

It's not every day you get murder weapons. Some people are going to be confused or panicky; it's natural.

[lienhearts]

Do you really have to say upfront it's a murder weapon?

[odasaku]

Bad wording?

[lienhearts]

That's an understatement.

It should be fine if you just say your past self had weapons and now you're not sure what to do with them

[odasaku]

That does sound better. Thanks.

[lienhearts]

[Why do you all suck at lying so much.]

Good luck
