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.

It can't be helped. You've got this animal thing going on.

Do you know anyone with strong healing magic? They might be able to fix you up better than a vet or a doctor.

[ascatic]

Strong healing magic...

I might. But is that not cheating someone out of a job? A doctor or veterinarian have spent their entire lives toward a medical profession. For someone to just wave their hands about and heal any wound...

It feels very odd.

[reaquila]

I know what you mean.

It's not cheating someone out of a job. They've never handled someone with realistic animal features, have they?

They might mishandle you... healing magic is safer.

[ascatic]

... Minato might be able to do something. But I would not want to bother him with something like this.

Wait.

He is also... I believe he has been studying to be a veterinarian.

He might be perfect for the job, but I do not want to saddle him with extra responsibilities. He already works hard enough.

[reaquila]

Sometimes I think he's working too hard.

He needs to sit down like you are now.


....

It's not bad to rest. If you think you need a break too then you should just take one.

[ascatic]

It sounds like we all need to sit down and rest, then.

[ which he wouldn't mind. ]

Breaks do not just come when one is needed. Work still needs to be done, after all.

[reaquila]

That's true.

A lot of us are overworking in between retrospec and life.

[ascatic]

Then, I hope you will remember to rest as well.

[reaquila]

Don't worry about me. I'll be getting plenty of rest.

Hell, sometimes I think I'm resting TOO much.

[ascatic]

Then, do not rest.

But do not be idle!

[reaquila]

Yeah, I know. I'm not gonna head into retirement.

I'm still young. What about you though? You aren't gonna take it easy?

[ascatic]

Nanashi.

Do you think I will take it easy?

There are no age restrictions to troublemaking.

[reaquila]

Hey old man....

I can't argue against that.

Even old people get in trouble all the time. Just don't kneel over and die young.

[ascatic]

I will not die...

... until it is time.

Whenever that time is, I do not know.

Still. You better follow that rule as well.

[reaquila]

Yeah, I know.

It'll be fine. I won't get into trouble like that.

[ascatic]

Glad to hear it.

I will hold it to you that you will stay out of trouble...
