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!



Cheers!

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.

Chloe Bouchard I am not inclined to actually believe anything he says.
Chloe Bouchard But if he is being honest, then yes that is what it sounds like.
Chloe Bouchard They should not have beta tested something like this in the way they have.

Hitori Togusa Is it actual ineptitude on Retrospec's part, or the appearance of ineptitude to keep us from taking them seriously?
Hitori Togusa I know which idea I find more frightening. But it's also the one I find more likely. Very unfortunately.

Chloe Bouchard Impossible to say for now.
Chloe Bouchard Which do you find more likely, though, if I may ask?

Hitori Togusa Actual ineptitude. As you said, they may be meddling with things without realizing what will happen until it occurs.
Hitori Togusa We are the test case, this is still in the experimental stage. And either their effects are rippling out to the entire world. Or they're changing our perspective of that world.

Chloe Bouchard I hate to say that I agree, but this feels more inept than fake at this point.
Chloe Bouchard And they seem not to be worried about the potential repurcussions of what it is that they are doing right now.
