so a lot of people have been talking about receiving packages in the mail from retrospec lately. we've had fruit, stuffed animals, various accessories... but i want to know more about the other things people have been getting. the weird changes that don't make sense
like anya suddenly being fluent in russian or yin's eyes changing color
how many of you guys have had stuff like THAT happen so far? what sort of changes are we seeing here?
people have been getting these flashes over the past month and a half, and now some people are turning up with these random physical changes or abilities they definitely didn't have the day before. i wanna know if there are just a couple people who've experienced this or if it's more common than we think
on a somewhat related note, who here knows anything about swordfighting? i think i want to try something
like anya suddenly being fluent in russian or yin's eyes changing color

have you noticed any other changes or is it just the eyes
no subject
[ insert selfie here ]
flashes aside, that's all i've gotten
i was thinking we might be mutating at a rapid rate but that only happens in comic books
and it doesn't add up with anya's case
no subject
how long have you been on the network? since last month or just this month?
i think anya might be the one of us with the most noticeable changes so far. the whole language thing is way beyond the rest of us
no subject
her changes were pretty specific
fluent russian but conversational english AND japanese?
[ yuuko's just wondering if it's her fault
i mean
she did tell her to look up idols ]
no subject
that IS pretty specific
i've heard those crazy stories about people going into comas and coming out of them speaking another language fluently, but i think it's pretty safe to say that isn't what happened here
no subject
hmm...
the first thing that comes to mind is hypnosis.
no subject
what i wanna know is if this is the start of something else
people are waking up and finding out that their hair's changed colors or their eyes have changed. is that just something that's gonna happen to you guys? or are more people going to wake up and find out they've got new hair or eye colors too?
and if they DO, then what's to say what happened to anya isn't going to happen to anyone else? if her suddenly knowing how to speak russian ISN'T because of some hypnosis trick (and do we even know if she met up with anyone that might've been ale to do that?), then is it another of those things that only those of us on the network recognize? are we all at risk of waking up and finding out something major changed in the middle of the night?
no subject
i'd be worried but there's nothing we can do now but wait
of course, i'm a curious cat
so i've done some snooping around myself
that didn't do me any good either
i don't know what they're planning
but whatever it is, they're going great lengths to keep it a secret
"stay tuned for our next update!"
or something like that
when will we get the next expansion pack, i wonder?
no subject
right now i'd guess we're looking at our next "expansion pack" around april fool's day since the network opened on feb 1, then this new wave of users rolled in on march 1. april 1 seems as likely as any time else, right?
no subject
but it's been too quiet, so i'm guessing we're in for a surprise soon
let's stay alert!
btw who's akira?
why were they invited?
no subject
his name's
which reminds me, you don't know a guy named matt miller, do you?
no subject
and no. why? is he someone i should know?
no subject
[He's not going to detail how he was trying to unlock them.]
nah, it's okay. we're trying to track him down after akira found a file with his name on it
so keep your eyes peeled
no subject
so how's your new sword coming along? it looks like a lot of people are getting dangerous things in the mail.
don't stab yourself!
no subject
[...again?!]
but i don't know why everybody thinks i'm going to get myself stabbed, it's not like we're going to do any of this trying to actually hurt each other
no subject
lol
well i hope no one gets hurt for real
by us, this app or anyone else
by the way... i'm curious
but are we really sure the flashes are just memories?
no subject
what do you mean JUST memories
as opposed to something else?
no subject
as with everything else, this is all speculation
but what if we weren't seeing episodes of the past?
have you ever considered that maybe
we're seeing the future?
no subject
THEY HAD BETTER NOT FUCKING BE.]
hell no
and it'd better not be either
[Unfortunately, he's not going to elaborate past that. Sorry, Yuuko, but when you think you've remembered dying, it's... not exactly something you want to think about being your future.]
no subject
it's just a suggestion
[ And she's a pessimist. Though be it in her past or future, a memory of death's not a pleasant one. ]
at least in some respects,
the past is easier to deal with than the future
no subject
if all this shit i'm seeing is some sort of past, i can deal with that
if this is the sort of stuff i've got to look forward to though, i'd like to find the opt out button before it can get started
