(4/2, morning.)
To the users of Retrospec:
This message comes from both Grell Sutcliffe and Lucian Trevelyan. There’s been discussion recently of certain changes coming over our userbase. Changes that come in different forms, from certain unexplained moments that feel like dreams or perhaps memories, items showing up without cause, or certain physical attributes undergoing shifts in inexplicable ways. It’s to the latter that we address ourselves.
We are both medical professionals, and as such we’d like to say that if you undergo such changes and would like someone to take a look at what’s happened to you, for any reason, we’re capable of doing so and willing to provide you with what information and care you need. Anyone that comes to see us will be treated with the same standards as we’d give any patient - your information will remain confidential, and your visits will be at your discretion.
[ Here is the address to an establishment in Chata, along with the phone number. ]
If you’d like to make an appointment for your visit, contact Dr. Trevelyan, and standard clinic hours will apply. Weekend morning appointments can also be arranged. If you require care outside of office hours or need things to be looked at immediately, contact Dr. Sutcliffe.
We are here to help you. Please do not hesitate to reach out to us should you have any sort of question or concerns. Feel free to comment to this post as well if you see fit.
[[ooc: since they co-wrote the post, either or both Grell (

"What does that mean, then, the physical changes are supposed to be helping jog our- 'memory' if we even agree that the visions people are having are truly memories? Enough people are corroborating the idea, but how can we prove that they're right?"

On her end, she runs a hand through her hair, steeling herself to openly say what she thinks next.
"In a way, I've been idly speculating that the changes are not so much placed there as they are us remembering they're there in the first place. Like a mark on your back in a place you never look for a long while and then suddenly, it's there and you recall all over again that it exists. It would fit with the memory theme, but it's also soundly ridiculous for a woman of the scientific field to be saying these things. An external force changing us is more logical."

But he continues to listen, even though the theory that Dr. Sutcliffe puts forth is frightening. "Like it's been in front of us the entire time, and we're only now seeing it. The changes with us would fit in with the changes to the world, then, as if we've been seeing horses where there were really chocobos the entire time. That is- not comforting. But it makes sense."
"Overall, though, the changes have been mostly cosmetic," Togusa insists. "The horses didn't get replaced with tiny flying birds, or machines, but with other animals that still fulfill all the basic functions of horses, from our narrow human perspective. Who can tell how those changes are altering the rest of the world, though."
"But, even to us, how much are we getting changed from our original selves?"

She says this, and she knows in her heart that she's already worrying, that she has ever since she woke up with these eyes, and that the fretting was only ever tempered by talking with people. It never stopped, but it was manageable.
