[recollecters]

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.

They're a bunch of motherFUCKERS

Just LOOK at them

Mocking us

You can't just kill people because they look at you funny!

Or fruit!

[beastenderblood]

I already beat up people who look at me funny! Might as well escalate things for goddamn vegetation

[frostythehitman]

What the hell, man!

Okay new rule: you can't kill a fruit unless it killed someone first. Bam, done, no more fruit murder.

[beastenderblood]

Someone's probably choked to death on an apple

[frostythehitman]

Until it's killed someone you personally know and you saw it happen and can prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that the fruit did it!

Seriously what the hell, how is this even a thing I have to lay out right now. You can't be this angry at your fruit smiling at you all of a sudden.

[ Sure it's all rather traumatic, but this is A LITTLE EXTREME. ]

Fruit is for eating, not moral quandaries! They have no place ruining my meals

[frostythehitman]

So just don't eat them then! Throw all your fruit out or something.

Or are you just going to let fruit completely rule your life like this? Do you want to give the fruit the satisfaction of ruining your life?

[beastenderblood]

Of course not

Which is why I'll eat them, knowing they suffer within my stomach acids

[ James has a horrifying moment of clarity, in the midst of his unfathomable frustration with this girl, that this must be what his dad felt like about him all the time. Dealing with a stubbornly determined bonehead who cannot be stopped in the pursuit of Complete Jackassery. ]

Alright, well, tell me how the fruit murder crusade goes. I won't be here to help when you get a buildup of all that citric acid and also crushing guilt.
