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.

i was doubtful but when you phrase it like that it actually bumps up my interest a million percent. guinea pig it up.

for now, maybe
but trust me, being a guinea pig gets real old real fast

okay probably yes and i know youre traumatized and all but

super powers tho

you're that sure you're gonna get superpowers?

kind? of? i feel like its worth the risk

really?
because the risk isn't 'get superpowers or stay normal'
it's 'get superpowers or lose a limb or an eye or get some terrible curse put on you'
you still willing to bet on that?

...i feel like my answer will come off real tasteless so i plead the fifth

what, you don't think i can handle it?
come on

[Shit maybe she was being more offensive by not saying "yes losing arms seem worth it for fight skill." Solution: be a shit but about something else.]

maybe? youre old now. you probably yell at cashiers about coupons now

[ tbh you're not wrong, vella. Look at him--he lost an arm but now he can do sick flips and has a cooler arm anyway! ]

hey
i only do that because i literally don't have the cash to buy stuff without the coupons now

counterpoint: i don't have an suv

they hold the same amount of stuff, more or less
the only difference is how the doors open

the doors are key to the whole puzzle. the slow pull as the kids pile in is essential wine mom
