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.

Aw.

Hm, do you like love stories? Or seeing actual love in real life? I'm told there's a difference, but both can be cute.

[erythristic]

both! i'm happy to take in stories through books and movies and watch it all unfold, but there's also something so wonderful in seeing love in real life, seeing people who care for each other meet each other's eyes and you just know there's something special there. it's beautiful, however it comes.

[5kotai]

woah, you can see something like that? it sounds amazing!

i don;t think i've ever seen it. but it's not something i've ever looked for? in movies and books, it's more obvious, with background music and really strong writing!

[erythristic]

in time, you'll see it. i have the feeling that it won't be something you need to rush towards for fear of missing. rather that it will come, in its own season, when you're ready.

[she may have checked his profile and realized who she's talking to...]

perhaps i look for it because i'm forever optimistic about it.

[ the gentle encouragement is very appreciated. thank you, miss. ]

okay! thank you for the advice.

is it rude to ask if you're looking for love? like, for yourself?

[erythristic]

rude? i don't think so. it's a fair question.

i think only those who have greater matters to attend to, like pursuing something important to you or even just finding out who you are, are those who are not looking for love. or if you've already found love, because of course you don't need to look for it if it's right there.

[5kotai]

people can be very sensitive of their romantic pursuits and success! my parents taught me that.

i think that makes sense. it's kind of... happening, always then? unless those things you brought up about are happening first. is that right?

[erythristic]

more or less, at least for someone like me. i'm not shy to say i'm a romantic, with an always open heart. ♥

[5kotai]

i wish you the best of luck! you seem like a very charming person, and really nice too.

[ that's gotta be on some folks' checklists for a good date. not the only ones hopefully, but they're still good points! ]
