Happy New Years, users. I'll cut to the chase; the barrier we instilled a few months ago is decaying quickly and we're sorting through the new data as fast as we can. This barrier was originally designed to contain a rogue error. There are several of you who have taken care of this issue and from here we will handle the rest...thank you. The influx of data will help us decode our next steps. As mentioned, we've spent December tracing several magical sources that are coming up in our readings. We're doing the best we can to trace Clarence--Mr. Vanderweele, and corral the effects he's altering in the city. I believe we're ready to tear down the firewall and begin exploring further. If our information is correct, we're really breaking the boundaries of the layers we've discovered lately! It's exciting, don't you think? The only information I can offer is that we will need you to be strong no matter what happens. We believe things have changed outside of security measures we've set in place, though we will need more data to understand the best way to stabilize the city from his control. We understand if you cannot and do not wish to help, but please know we're doing everything we can. Please take care.

My, you're in a good mood! I'm personally hoping for monsters again, that's something I can get excited about~!

[manufactured]

Even if it isn't, it will be nice to have something to be directed towards.

[scythegun]

Yes, of course. I've appreciated the break, of course, but I'm getting a bit anxious to do something again! Fighting would be preferable, of course~!

[manufactured]

We'll have to wait and see, I suppose.

[scythegun]

That's how it always goes... I doubt we'll have to wait long, so at least there's that.

[manufactured]

True enough.

Honestly, as long as this January goes better than the last, I imagine we'll be fine. And that isn't a particularly difficult bar to clear.

[scythegun]

That's burying the bar at least six feet underground, but even that might not be enough for Retrospec...

[manufactured]

It's done with now, I suppose.

[scythegun]

Of course, and I imagine it'll be very difficult for anything to be quite that bad now. We are in a pretty good place, aren't we?

[manufactured]

I'd say so, yes.

[scythegun]

I'm very happy where we are now, of course! Don't worry, I won't embarrass you in public~!

[manufactured]

That much is appreciated, at least.

[scythegun]

I always do what I can for you, after all~!

[manufactured]

I'm aware.

I have something to discuss with you, incidentally. Memory-wise. Not so much terrible as bizarre.

[scythegun]

Oh? I'll listen whenever you'd like to talk about it. I'm glad it isn't anything terrible, at least.

[manufactured]

...It thankfully doesn't involve Birkin this time, though it's at least on par with some of his stranger hobbies.

[scythegun]

...Please tell me it doesn't involve leeches.

[manufactured]

I believe this may actually be worse than the leeches.

[scythegun]

Oh dear. I'm a bit afraid to find out... You'll have to tell me tonight, I'll die of curiosity otherwise!

[manufactured]

Yes, of course.

[scythegun]

It's appreciated~ I'll be home in a bit, I'll see you then! ♥
