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.

Yes, I suppose we can hope that.

Though it's not always this app itself that is making me worry the most.

What about spontaneously changing an entire species of animal? And now the fruit... Changes like that don't just happen. How did fruit develop muscle fiber and a brain to control it? Spontaneously?

Aren't there movies upon movies about people being trapped in a computer simulation? It feels surreal enough to be something like that at this point.

i didn't know you watched those movies!
lol
then we should be extra careful auntie
if you die in the game you die in real life!

[ A morbid joke from someone who just dreamt of dying. ]

... it's a reference

[blooming_resonance]

Not all the time, but I have seen a few.

... Except that one, but I figured as much. It sounds like a quote.

I'll try not die. Either in the game or real life.

[ghostories]

me too!

[ As upbeat as she sounds, she sincerely hopes so. ]

i have to go to class now

[ A lie, since this is when she usually skips her classes. Especially when she feels uncomfortable. And Retrospec's changes have made her more uncomfortable than she lets on. But the last thing she wants to do is make her aunt sad! So... ]

i'll see you around!
