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.

let me know how it goes? we only had apples and limes.

[sparsity]

sure thing

[ AND TRUE TO HIS WORD a couple minutes later he sends a picture of a full, naked orange. and its peel sitting there smiling and motionless.

he can't tell if he feels weird about this ]

well
it didn't seem to mind

[aegist]

at least the peels aren't anything other than super creepy.

i guess.

i'm not sure how to feel about them, honestly?

[sparsity]

i don't know if i feel more or less weird about it now that i look at it

there's plenty of other food with faces
so why fruit

[ jim, please ]

[aegist]

maybe they want all food to have faces out ofa misplaced sense of equality?

[sparsity]

janet must be really interested in fruit rights

[aegist]

janet or jim or both, yeah.

or this is all solely to fuck with us and we're giving them too much credit, i.e. assuming they have any reason for anything at all.

[sparsity]

it would be easier to think of it that way than equal face opportunity i guess

[aegist]

equal face opportunity is admittedly more weird and also worrying when you think about how many things have yet to have faces.

[sparsity]

this could be the beta...
like the app

[aegist]

how do you mean?

[sparsity]

maybe the faces are so crappy because they're only the first round

[aegist]

so like you think they'll upgrade the faces later??

[sparsity]

it's possible isn't it
i want that more than i want more types of fruits with faces i think

[aegist]

because you want the faces to change or because you want more fruit to remain unaffected?

and i don't see why it wouldn't be possible, really.

[sparsity]

less fruit with faces is good
i know they're not alive like animals are now, but still

[aegist]

but still is about right. anyway, i should go make sure my brother doesn't kill himself cooking dinner. talk to you later?
