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.

i don't know, i think they're kind of cute
the fruits, i mean
if i bite one, do you think it'd start screaming?

[vendettastool]

Yoon-sung Lee tHEY DON'T SCREAM BUT THEIR DEAD EYES FOLLOW YOU UNLESS YOU PEEL THEM

[ghostories]

that's a little creepy!
i'm guessing you ate one? :)

[vendettastool]

i MADE A PLATTER OF FRUIT
tHEY ARE DELICIOUS STILL

[5kotai]

i think they're cute too, but i don't want to hear them in distress!

i wonder if i could keep one as a pet. we have so much, we just went grocery shopping before this.

[ghostories]

aww you're cute

[ Yuuko would absolutely love to hear them scream in terror. ]

wouldn't they rot? well i wouldn't know.
you should keep one and find out!
i'll be your moral support ♥

[ and basically do nothing ]

[5kotai]

cute...?

i think apples last a long time so i'll take good care of one! i'll give it my old lunchbox as a bed, and some fruit fresh... just in case

[covenantal]

You should let us know if they do.

[ghostories]

update: they don't scream no matter how fast you slice them
that
or the apples i bought have learned helplessness

1/2

[covenantal]

[ wow ]

[covenantal]

Well, at least we know they don't feel pain. Hopefully. They have faces, they'd scream if they were bothered, right?

[manolia]

They wouldn't have vocal cords, would they? They can't even voice their distress. :(

[ghostories]

oh...

that's boring
then again, that's assuming they can feel distress to begin with.

[godcards]

Go ahead and find out. Report back.

[ghostories]

oho! someone's interested.iI can feel the sadistic intent!
being fruit killers might go on our record though
do you want to proceed?

[voidedmemory]

They did not scream when I cut them up, so you are safe from fruit-based vocalisation.

Apparently biting into one may mean it feels like kissing it though. So perhaps it is best to be careful!

[ghostories]

oh i think biting into fruit is better than any kiss i've had so far, so it can't be that bad

[ she's literally been kissed once ]

have you tried it?
let's try it!

[blooming_resonance]

Do you want it to start screaming?

I don't think I could stomach it either way. I had some apples I was going to throw out with this... change, but if you want them...

[ghostories]

i think it'd be funny!

bring them here please!

[burningblossoms]

I wonder too!
That sounds super morbid, but really cool too.

[ghostories]

fruits don't have souls so it's not that morbid, i think!
well, it's fun if you think otherwise, too

[rebellions]

if that's your idea of "cute", then I don't wanna know what you'd consider "fucked up"

[ghostories]

that's what i call the flashes
have you had those lately, mister?

[admiringly]

yuuko??
why....

[ghostories]

boredom and curiosity?
have you eaten one, chiyo?
