They very clearly aren't.

[longwei2go]

adjust your screen

[truedetective]

Contact lenses? With natural color correction, they are unmistakably purple.

[longwei2go]

ive had blue eyes all my life

[magcat]

what's wrong with the picture? You look really pretty

[ as you can tell, she probably didn't read the entire post until---- ]

oh... your eyes aren't blue but they're really beautiful! I don't really get it?

[longwei2go]

doesnt matter how they look
it matters that its WRONG

[magcat]

but

is it really that bad? :(

[divine_braid]

I dunno... I think it looks kinda cool.

[Blue, purple... Don's eyes got mistaken for both all the time. He didn't really pay enough attention to figure it out. He always just said blue when people asked him.]

[longwei2go]

way to miss the point bro

[divine_braid]

No. I mean, I get it? Kind of? You're saying your eyes changed colors, which is definitely weird. But, it could have been worse? They could have been like orange or something.

[Togusa's message starts out with the address of a medical clinic.]

If you have the chance, I'd recommend talking to Dr. Trevelyan. He's a good man, discreet, and I doubt if he'd even charge you for the visit if it's in relation to this Retrospec mystery.

How do you even quantify 'eye color change' medically?

I'm sorry that this is happening.

[longwei2go]

cant say the thought of seeing a doc excites me
for any reason
ever
got enough of them in my life right now
but if a bunch of people are in on it guess i could suck it up

[standalonehuman]

If it's not something that's going to give you comfort, then skip it.
His advice helped me out, when something weird happened around the Retrospec building, and he could tell me that there was nothing wrong with me.
But not everyone will feel better from the same things.

Those are definitely purple.

[longwei2go]

THEY SHOULD BE BLUE
what do people think im making this shit up

[tosa]

So... you got contacts?

[rebellions]

yea it's called contact lenses
or photoshop
idk who you're trying to fool but it's clearly not working

[longwei2go]

look if i was gonna post to show off anything
itd be my tattoos
this is real

[rebellions]

tattoos are something i'd believe
magical eye color changes, not so much

[tokencanadian]

well that's
not possible. At all.

[longwei2go]

if i hear one more person tell me that
i dunno what ill do

[tokencanadian]

Well



I'm sorry? That sucks.
And probably not something you can just explain to your parents.

[starfruitfrog]

Yuki Sato Wait, so is this like that bird/horse thing? When you ask your friends and family do none of them remember that you have blue eyes or something?

[longwei2go]

my friends and other random people think its weird
they say a lot of the same shit i hear here
nice contacts
etc

im trying to figure out a way to fix it before my family can see

[starfruitfrog]

So this is like those people that are.......getting powers, then. They don't remember you like this. I mean, I didn't really notice last time but I think I would have noticed if your eyes were purple.

[Or probably not because he'd been more concerned with escaping the big ball of string.]

It doesn't hurt though, right? And why can't you let your family know? Maybe you could tell them you were trying out contacts.
