Per the mod plotting post, you may use this post to obtain one of this month's freebies! This month's freebie can be earned by turning in a thread on this post that has 10 or more consecutive comments from you.

Please feel free to use this post as a network mingle. Every toplevel can be considered a new post, and threadjacking is permitted. No NPC response will be given. Alphas, Betas, and Epsilons will notice that network posts will continue to be tagged without names attached but rather their newly issued IDs. OOCly, IDs are comprised of their title, the date they showed up on the app, and the digits on your character's inbox post. So for example, the Recollé NPC who was on the app would have an ID of Beta#0201188329. While user pictures can be displayed, Retrospec users will also experience broken pixels on occasion that obscure the face of whoever they're speaking to. (i.e. we will allow for players to play with an anonymous option if they wish.)

Yeah...
Did you ever imagine a year ago that you'd be having discussions like this?
windeity: (UNSURE ♫ what?)

[personal profile] windeity 2018-10-10 07:29 pm (UTC)(link)
no. i didn't.
that's what makes this even harder.
what's happened that so much has changed in a year without us even knowing what to do next?
notyourutopian: (Hmm.)

[personal profile] notyourutopian 2018-10-12 10:31 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't know.
I almost feel like we are just being dragged along by it all.
Like it doesn't matter that we don't understand or don't know what to do.
Because we can't stop it anyway.
windeity: (UNSURE ♫ oh wait hang on)

[personal profile] windeity 2018-10-15 04:10 pm (UTC)(link)
like we're just being used by somebody else. pawns, basically.
it's a depressing way of looking at it but at the same time i almost agree with you.
everything we have tried so far does not seem to work.
so it becomes a question of "ok so do we keep trying, or do we quit and wait and see what happens", i think.
notyourutopian: (Harumph.)

[personal profile] notyourutopian 2018-10-17 11:38 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. That's the problem.
Of course, it's all basically nothing.
Since I mean
Could you really sit back and try to do nothing?

I know I can't, even if I'd like to.
windeity: (PEEK ♫ over arms)

[personal profile] windeity 2018-10-18 04:54 pm (UTC)(link)
me personally? no, absolutely not. i think that is why you and i get along like we do anyway.
but i have a feeling other people could if we let them. that is the scary part.
notyourutopian: (Restless Nights)

[personal profile] notyourutopian 2018-10-31 02:08 am (UTC)(link)
...Is it really our place to make them, though?
People have the right to choose not to help, whether we agree with it or not.
windeity: (WARY ♫ er...)

[personal profile] windeity 2018-10-31 05:53 pm (UTC)(link)
it's not so much about making them, no. but we can do our best to catch people up and encourage them to try.
that is all i am saying here.
notyourutopian: (Thoughtful)

[personal profile] notyourutopian 2018-10-31 08:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I guess so.
It all feels so different than it did when I first got on here.
And we were just trying to understand all this new weirdness.

Not...like...having to figure out how to save people or encourage people to do it or anything like that.

I rather miss when all I had to worry about was school.
windeity: (CROWN ♫ heavy is the head)

[personal profile] windeity 2018-10-31 08:52 pm (UTC)(link)
things have been getting worse. i think we can all acknowledge that.
but then again, when everybody first got the app we weren't dealing with things like unreality and murder...right?
who knows? maybe everything will go back to normal again in february. that seems to be when things really change around here.
notyourutopian: (The Girl That Should Have Been)

[personal profile] notyourutopian 2018-10-31 09:49 pm (UTC)(link)
Wouldn't that be nice.
Although who knows what insane things could happen in the next four months.
But I suppose either way we'll just keep pushing through like we always do.
windeity: (HAMMER ♫ battleweary)

[personal profile] windeity 2018-11-01 12:57 am (UTC)(link)
why else do you think we're here, eleanor?
we're the only people who can put up with this huge amount of bullshit and still be standing, i think.
notyourutopian: (Thoughtful)

[personal profile] notyourutopian 2018-11-01 08:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Hah.
I'm not really sure I want that qualification!

But having two little sisters did pretty much train me to deal with a ton of nonsense, so I suppose it fits.
windeity: (CHINHANDS ♫ ah I see)

[personal profile] windeity 2018-11-01 10:19 pm (UTC)(link)
exactly. i do not have siblings, but i have dave and maybe that counts as learning to work with nonsense.
(don't tell him i said that. but i think he already knows anyway.)
and speaking of, i should probably go. let's hang out soon though?
notyourutopian: (That's so sweet.)

[personal profile] notyourutopian 2018-11-03 02:11 am (UTC)(link)
Oh I'm sure he's well aware. Haha.
Yeah.
I'll talk to you later, John.
