Welcome to Retrospec™, the last social media network you will ever need. You are one of the few selected to test this exciting new platform based on our cutting-edge algorithms. Less than two hundred invitations have gone out, and membership is not currently open to the public. However, we hope you will come to see how useful Retrospec™ is, given time. We have for your use a variety of features such as text, voice, video, and image posts. We encourage you to explore our many options.

Anyway, now that the copypaste part is out of the way! Jim here, requesting you guys make your secret meetings a little more exciting. It's not like you're not trying with the whole "let's meet off the network!" dealio, but I have some serious concerns. For one thing, no secret handshakes or phrases? Not even dramatic meeting locations? The trying rating is about half a star if that. And I'm almost bored to tears with the whole back and forth about what's going on. Not bored enough to give you a cheat sheet, but still. I can't get myself taken off surveillance duty, so at least try to make it a little more exciting!

You guys might like this wikihow. Later!

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. Characters who have been in game for more than one month will find they can change their profile pictures; newcomers are locked into their first choice.

At various points throughout the day users will be sent images of themselves from behind, regardless of where they are. There doesn't seem to be any way to catch whoever might be taking and sending these, however, especially since being alone in a room doesn't seem to be a deterrent.

It won't make me stop feeling that way, but it will give me something to focus my energy on productively. A bit like how you keep busy all the time.

Flowers help me a lot. Just watch. They'll start smiling at me soon.

When I am angry enough that I need to calm down I go for a drive.
At least, when I'm not already in my pajamas.
And afraid to open my curtains.

Ugh.

I would come tap on your window, but I think that might scare you more. Besides, you are already in your pajamas, and I am certain someone would probably say something bad about trying to enter via the window this late.

[A little ill timed humor to try and lighten the mood Chloe had already darkened considerably earlier.]

[personal profile] notyourutopian 2017-05-02 11:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah don't do that.
If anything taps on my window it's getting an encyclopedia to the face.

You realize that people throwing pebbles lightly at people's windows is an old mainstay in this culture to try and wake someone up late, when they do not wish to alert the rest of the famiy, yes?
notyourutopian: Do not take! (You will regret that.)

[personal profile] notyourutopian 2017-05-03 12:09 am (UTC)(link)
Don't care.
Encyclopedia to the face, Chloe.
To the face.

I will just have to find other ways to catch your attention when I am desperate in the middle of the night, no? I am a clever girl. I am sure that I can manage.

Text me like a normal person.

[She is way too on edge for this tonight.]
true_noir: (Cloak13)

[personal profile] true_noir 2017-05-03 12:16 am (UTC)(link)
Do me a favor, and send me your actual phone number, so that I can text you one of these days. Like an actual normal person.

Not on this app.
notyourutopian: (Frightened and Surprised)

[personal profile] notyourutopian 2017-05-03 12:26 am (UTC)(link)
Uh
I will tell it to you next time I see you.
Don't want to put it here.
true_noir: (Creeper)

[personal profile] true_noir 2017-05-03 12:28 am (UTC)(link)
They know it already, but yes.

I prefer that you tell me in person. Sorry, I should have been more clear on that. Listen, try to relax. I know it's not easy, and they've made it much harder for us, Eleanor, but try for me please.
notyourutopian: (Determined)

[personal profile] notyourutopian 2017-05-03 12:32 am (UTC)(link)
Yes but all these other people who can see this don't.

I'll relax when they aren't somehow taking pictures of me.
true_noir: (Hmmm)

[personal profile] true_noir 2017-05-03 12:40 am (UTC)(link)
It might not be a bad idea to turn your phone off for the night. let it recharge while your brain rests. You can't see them send you pictures while it's off.
notyourutopian: (Frustrated)

[personal profile] notyourutopian 2017-05-03 04:57 am (UTC)(link)
And just think of all the wonderful creepy pictures of me sleeping I can wake up to.

I'm taking you out for ice cream one of these days. Ice cream and something to absolutely take our minds off of this. No phones. But for now, perhaps a glass of warm milk and hopefully your sleep will not be full of bad dreams.
notyourutopian: (Harumph.)

[personal profile] notyourutopian 2017-05-03 10:33 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe I'll swipe some of my dad's rum.
I might take you up on that ice cream thing sometime.
Although not having my phone just sounds bizarre.
true_noir: (Smile2)

[personal profile] true_noir 2017-05-03 03:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, we could simply turn them off as a compromise. Either way, no Retrospec to worry about. And that rum might not be a terrible idea.

[Chloe Bouchard, best influence ever.]
notyourutopian: (Harumph.)

[personal profile] notyourutopian 2017-05-05 03:33 am (UTC)(link)
Except for the part where it tastes god awful.
Alright. Just let me know when.
