Greetings, Users. Our system may be experiencing some residual glitches from a recent network malfunction. Our technical team is working on getting these issues under control. Please direct any concerns in the meantime to the HR department at humanresources@retrospec.com. Our staff has furthermore noticed a significant increase in tags and trends for #aprilfools and #pranks. Keep on your toes and be certain to tag your best tricks for Retrospec™! 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. Any emails sent to the HR department will be returned with a failure to send notification, and will furthermore automatically be posted to the Retrospec network. Oops? Characters who have been in game for one month will find they can now change their profile pictures. Glitches will be in effect until the 15th and may include: -Usernames changing to a cat, dog, or bird pun. -The Retrospec application being changed into a neon color + animal theme of some variety. -Notifications going off at random and being unable to be turned off. -Various "special effects" crossing the screens when people comment. -Users having to beat a level of pac-man to access the application, and then being made to beat a new level every hour to keep using the application. -Thomas the Tank Engine memes being sent to users every hour for some reason. -Profile pictures being replaced by pictures of rabbits and easter eggs. -New creepy pasta stories appearing upon log-in, to be forwarded to someone before the app can continue to be used -Parental lock and auto-correct on cursing (i.e. fuck -> duck) -A parade of pixel Chocobos or dancing fruit scrolling across the screen after each comment posted

Mewsei Sakameowto At least the app isn't barking or meowing at me!
Mewsei Sakameowto By the way, Yasusada...
Mewsei Sakameowto Have you had ghost stories sent to you? Random people are sending them to Ryusei's messages, it's kind of mean.

[ Apparently so is Pear, the tiniest devil fruit. ]

[okitactless]

Pomesada Yamato ghost stories?
No, I don't think so... what sort of stories?

[Like "my grandma moved my painting" ghost stories or "clarissa will murder you in your sleep" ghost stories... BOTH ARE EQUALLY TERRIBLE TO HIM TBH.]

[5kotai]

[ While a small child can't copypasta a creepypasta, copypasta-ing the link to the creepy article is close enough. ]

Mewsei Sakameowto The shrine where the picture was taken is haunted.
Mewsei Sakameowto They used to impale people as offerings to the gods like those dolls.
Mewsei Sakameowto So those ghosts possess the dolls and they sway on the sticks at night, even when there's no wind or bad weather... SCARY.

[okitactless]

Pomesada Yamato why would you send something like that to anybody!!!!

[HE'S TOO SCARED TO EVEN OPEN THE LINK]

[5kotai]

Mewsei Sakameowto I have no idea... It's from random people too
Mewsei Sakameowto Yasusada will scare away the ghosts if they haunt the apartment though, right?

[ congratulations yasuyams, you are now contracted as the their new ghostbuster! ]

[okitactless]

Pomesada Yamato no way!!

[RYUSEI CAN PROTECT HIS OWN STUPID ASS IF HE GETS GHOSTS SICCED ON HIM.]

Pomesada Yamato but you can come and stay with us if you have to

[5kotai]

Mewsei Sakameowto Okay, I'll do that.

[ time to leave ryusei to be ghost sacrifice food ig ]

Mewsei Sakameowto Oh, I should ask because I heard rumors, but..
Mewsei Sakameowto You and Kiyomitsu aren't having someone stay over in your apartment regularly, are you?

[okitactless]

[Who the heck is spreading weird rumors... IS RYUSEI BEING RUDE AGAIN]

Pomesada Yamato I don't know if I'd call it regularly [Even though it's like once a week??] but sometimes my friend Yato-kun comes to stay the night, why?

[5kotai]

[ Stop believing Ryusei is the root of your problems, Yams...!

Hehe, root, yams... ]

Mewsei Sakameowto Yato... Oh.
Mewsei Sakameowto I think I met him before, he's nice!
Mewsei Sakameowto Wait that's not the point here.
Mewsei Sakameowto You know you have a strict landlady, don't you...?

[okitactless]

[Okay but who else would be telling Koukichi weird stuff...]

Pomesada Yamato So?
Pomesada Yamato It's not like he lives with us, he just comes over sometimes
Pomesada Yamato That's not against the rules

[And would he care even if it was... no, not really. He pays the rent on time and doesn't even put holes in the wall with his bokuto, okay, THEY'RE MODEL RESIDENTS.]

[5kotai]

[ anyone who might recognize the nickel hobo hawking his services. clearly you three are part of a crime ring.]

Mewsei Sakameowto I hope other places are nice to him like you guys....
Mewsei Sakameowto But, this makes it easier to say hi to him!
Mewsei Sakameowto Can I stop by for that, and to find him work to do?

[ he promised to ask him for help. an apartment complex needs upkeep after all and landlady-san would then welcome him. ]

[okitactless]

[WOW, LOOK... they're honest working citizens...]

Pomesada Yamato I guess if you want to
Pomesada Yamato he mostly just drops by unexpectedly though so I can't really say when he'll be here...

[Yamato's pretty convinced that Yato is great, so the idea of anybody not welcoming him hasn't even really occurred to him.

(Well, except for Kashuu. But he doesn't count.)]
