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.

other things, I think. the concept itself wasn't well-known but I know about it. it's like...the difference between seeing a dog and, I don't know, a goat? two totally different things that you could look at and be like "that is definitely a goat and not a dog" but somebody else would be like "no you're insane that's a dog"
think about the arguments we've had with people about horses versus chocobos

[truedetective]

So rather, it was something that could affect people's perception of a given object, place, or situation?

I see.

exactly. but there were still people who could see through it
pretty sure it was called mist. dunno why, just a feeling that sounds right
if I figure out more about how it works I'll let you know somehow

[truedetective]

It couldn't hurt.

No offense, I remain dubious about many of these memories. But false or not, they may help us understand the nature of what's going on.

[chiseler]

I'm pretty skeptical about half of my memories I'm getting too but there's too many of them split between us to think it's entirely coincidental anymore
hopefully we'll figure something out soon enough
good luck

Thank you. You as well.
