[recollecters]

What's up, users! We've mostly fixed the technical problems we were having earlier (unless Danny missed something again) but you might want to wear green. Also, I'm supposed to make a vague and mysterious informational post here but that sounded boring so I made a video presentation instead! Watch on YouTube Cheers! Jim Halloway Research & Development Retrspec Incorporated As of this post all apples, oranges, lemons, and limes have been replaced in-universe as the silly dancing fruits shown above. This means that as with Chocobos all NPCs will insist this is how things have always been and history/movies/etc will back them up. In honor of St. Patrick's Day characters will find a request from Retrospec to upload a picture of themselves to the network in which they are wearing something green. They will find themselves shocked lightly by their device if they try to use it without complying. Rude? A non-triggered memory regain can be earned through participation in this post in honor of Lucy's birthday the holiday with proof of a single thread with at least five comments from your character. If you plan to redeem this, please submit it to our regains page with the explanation of "March freebie". This must be submitted before April to be valid! Regardless of whether or not a character earns the freebie, all characters will find a gold coin with the Retrospec logo on one side and a Chocobo on the other. On the outside edge of the coin they will find "Jim, put a meaningful quote here. - Janet" engraved in a beautiful font. The Chocobo will morph into a horse should your character obtain the memory regain from the event; it will stay a Chocobo if your character does not obtain the memory regain. Please see our OOC information post HERE for some information and reminders - you can direct any questions about this post there! 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. Usernames are the character's full real AU names, not aliases or chosen nicknames or usernames, and seemed to have filled themselves in; nothing characters do can change or obscure their names currently.

... Signal to Noise?

[appraiser]

with oranges at least, you can make a single slit and peel it without turning it all the way around, like how dresses unzip from the back
i'm happy about the other fruit being unaffected, but i also really loved oranges... (´• - •̥`)

[antagonize]

Jason Grace I can't even call these first world problems because where in the world do fruit gain faces? Only in Recollé, apparently.
Jason Grace Maybe it's time we consider jobs that DON'T involve food.

[erythristic]

if she's the love of his life she probably knows he'd do something like this. he's dedicated, if nothing else.

[parodeity]

eh i dont think thats so bad
like
i want my logos and shit back and im mildly annoyed about the apple themed shit i owned
being
silly now?
but its whatever

[antagonize]

Only if that drink is chocolate milk. Get your calcium, kiddo. [Jason Grace, you're literally two years older. Stop.]

Dare I ask what's going to be defiled next? Maybe we'll step outside one day and all hour homes will be made out of gingerbread.

[professahhh]

Yes, those.

They're grinning, too...

[professahhh]

Are you sure, though?

Either way, I don't think I could bring myself to eat one now.

[erythristic]

while your commitment to the task at hand would be admirable, the same impediments to marriage would exist.

besides, i never claimed to not be a cruel woman.

[splinten]

You can't say you understand now when they took my fucking oranges.
I'm being attacked by Retrospec. Personally.
This entire goddamned conspiracy is specifically designed to enrage me.

[daemonized]

You can't avoid the produce aisles forever. Eventually, even you must succumb to the singing fruit.

On an only vaguely related note, did you receive a coin as well?

[voideity]

davey i love you and will support all ur life choices
but
you do not have enough hair for a pony

[appraiser]

then no, unless you're allergic, i don't think they're dangerous!
i have it on good authority

[goen]

NOOOOOOO
MISS MMMMMMMMMM
!!!!!!!!
This was a trap... (･‸･̥̥̥)

[parodeity]

yeah well apparently i have the most hallucinomemories kashuus ever heard of anyone having so
maybe it just hates striders
bright side the juice still tastes the same
if you ignore the fact it is now made of smiling fruit zombies

[counteracts]

...wait, seriously

[There is a pause of a few moments, then a hurried response.]

holy shit, google search 'still life painting'

[WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK, IT'S ON ALL THE RESULTS]

[parodeity]

its on my wrist
i didnt have any clean green stuff??????
and it was shocking me

[admiringly]

but what if they're poisoned?
or what if
eating one makes you think they're normal like my mom thinks they are??

[ right now she's not sure what's worse ]

[daemonized]

I think you should do it. Though you'll have to tell them to look a bit more serious; their smiles are hardly suited to the dramatics of the Carmina Burana.

[antagonize]

Jason Grace Do we know if they're still edible?
Jason Grace I'd say we put off finding out for as long as possible, but science needs to know.
Jason Grace I'll grab the knives and you grab the apples?

[parodeity]

just lmk and i will be there
ms paint at the ready
my stylus poised to come to your aid

[clear_eyes]

The same way you would normally. The first person to encounter them already confirmed they're not poison. They're Just.

Weird.

[magcat]

Charlotte Sakata that almost sounds violent the way you put it. but it's technically... just an apple anyway
Charlotte Sakata apple and peanut butter smoothies? I never tried that before! is it good?

[clear_eyes]

I'm pretty sure it's merely superficial, at least. No less strange though...

[esperimental]

That's so wasteful Garry-san. Fruits have always been alive, they're just alive a little different now.
