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.

You think so? I actually think this is kind of sweet, in a strange way? Jim had to do a lot of work considering how much editing he did.

[ did you see the amount of transitions that went down in that video?? he put his heart into it. ]

[megabond]

You got a point there. He must have loved Janet. Think she will get the message?

[caelestialis]

Hmmm. It's a toss up in my opinion. On one hand he did use a Queen song but his use of font may or may not be held against him. That's vital in any marriage. 😋

[megabond]

That's true. Not to mention he should try other images and footage rather than ones with those dancing fruits...

[caelestialis]

Why did he only use fruits and a Queen song for this video?

These are the hard hitting questions we need to ask the employees if we ever get into contact with them.

[megabond]

Good idea. Since going back to their headquarters to ask them might not be an option for us right now.

[caelestialis]

[ huh? alright- she can roll with this sudden topic change. years of being a teacher, and herself in general, has taught her to go with the flow. ]

If we did go back to the building, I doubt they'll have something like the mad libs puzzle again. It'll be actual security and everything.

I am worried about the idea of trying to make contact with anyone from here though. Seems rather risky.

[megabond]

Yeah. I fear that mentioning anymore of this in Retrospec would get us even more trouble.

Maybe we should discuss more of this at the other app or site.

[caelestialis]

I'll try to private message you in the future then! Better leave this topic be so we don't get into any more trouble or added into some sort of watch list.

[megabond]

Good idea.

One more thing, do you have any other plans for tomorrow that doesn't involve fruit-related drinks?

[It might be best considering he is still creeped out by the dancing fruits with faces on them.]

[caelestialis]

Nothing all that special. I'm going to visit my parents for our weekly date. We garden but thankfully there are only flowers, not fruits, in my mom's plots.

Why do you ask?

[megabond]

Well, I'm practically busy in the shelter all day, so I might be busy that day as well.

[caelestialis]

Okay.

I think I should let you focus on your other tasks now. My own is calling me to finish it up before the end of the day. See you soon?

[megabond]

Yeah. See you soon.

[caelestialis]

Don't be a stranger! Hope you have a good day now.
