[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.

Alicia Clover Yes, certainly. I have no desire to be shocked on a continuous basis. I like having my phone to use.
Alicia Clover ...you are implying you're a demon or similar, then? I admit I don't know many other things that would have a reaction to holy water.

[ Alicia, you know not what you've wrought. ]

Ranko Kanzaki Of course, I was not born a demon! I, Ranko Kanzaki, had my wings tarred by force and fell in flames into a world of pitch black darkness! Now I dwell amongst the students of the damned, but still occasionally crawl into the sun's pitiless glare so I may discuss matters of great import with my peers.
Ranko Kanzaki Somewhat like I am doing now! Only not outside. [ Nah, she's curled up in her bedroom...like most days. ]

MY INBOX BETRAYED ME, sorry for the late tag

[rosettareflected]

Alicia Clover So you were once an angel or similar, and then became a normal human who spends time outside with other normal humans discussing normal human things?

[Please tell her this is what you're saying, Ranko. Those sentences happened she thinks she understands. this is probably the first mistake]

IT'S OK this month has been hectic for me so i'm late too orz

[legne]

Ranko Kanzaki More of a fallen angel than a normal human, but one who deigns to educate the masses in the black arts. Yes, that is the source of my infamy!
Ranko Kanzaki Who knows? If you get too close, your own white wings may be similarly tarnished... [ Is that...self-deprecation? Or just self-pity? ]

[rosettareflected]

Alicia Clover Black arts? Like magic? And I'm not worried about myself.
Alicia Clover There are things I'll jump into harm's way for, without question. So it's not really an issue.

[legne]

Ranko Kanzaki It appears you have a courageous heart!
Ranko Kanzaki Courageous...or foolhardy?
Ranko Kanzaki I jest. Nonetheless, if you change your mind, I'd be happy to introduce you to my sorcerous studies.

[rosettareflected]

Alicia Clover It's certainly something I strive to put forward. I've worked too hard on improving myself not to take advantage of it.
Alicia Clover I'll certainly keep the offer in mind. Until such a time, though, we can always discuss more traditional pursuits, as needed? Surely you have more mundane things on your mind, at least on occasion.

[legne]

Ranko Kanzaki In mundane times, yes, my thoughts turn to more 'respectable' intellectual stimuli...
Ranko Kanzaki But, alas, these are interesting times! And a more interesting chain reaction is even now falling into motion!

[rosettareflected]

Alicia Clover Interesting indeed... I would be lying if I said I had any idea what would be coming. But I'm somewhat excited to see it, all the same.
Alicia Clover What in particular were you referencing as the chain reaction you were thinking of? I have several thoughts off the the top of my head and I didn't want to presume.

[legne]

Ranko Kanzaki I believe that after this farce, more phenomena of ever-increasing absurdity will begin to manifest. We are mere pawns in a game between beings we may not yet fully understand.
Ranko Kanzaki But I would like to hear your own thoughts on the matter. Do you dare draw your flaming sword and make apple pie out of the opposing army of advancing edibles?

[rosettareflected]

Alicia Clover I don't think you're wrong. I can't even fathom what's to come, but I'm certain we're not out of the woods with just this.
Alicia Clover Mind you, I don't have a flaming sword to draw, but we can't simply cut entire foods out of the human diet. This oppression will matter little, at the end of the day. They're still apples and I still want to eat them.

[A brief pause.]

Alicia Clover It may just take some getting used to, first.
