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! Jim Halloway Research & Development Retrspec Incorporated 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. This post is an overflow from the original post here. Feel free to either carry over threads from there or create entirely new ones.

[ from here ]

i would suggest tentacles.
everyone loves tentacles! and they are very squishy and adorable.

[thesettingsun]

It's harder to do pirate-ing things without opposable thumbs.

[He's not even going to argue that he doesn't want there to be porn of his book. There's porn of everything, you just have to accept that when you get published.]

[elevelvetor]

[ oh... true... ]

what about tentacles, but only for their legs?

[thesettingsun]

That sounds more likely. I can work with that!

[elevelvetor]

i am happy i could help!
let's see...

perhaps they could have something on them that is specially designed to allow them to breathe in space? so they do not have to have, say, suits or barriers or things like that.

[thesettingsun]

The air pressure (or lack thereof) would still be a problem, though. They'd have to deal with that too.

[elevelvetor]

true... but i would find them laughably unthreatening if they wore a spacesuit or something.

[ heehee. ]

how are you planning on dealing with that?

[thesettingsun]

If they were able to regulate their own body pressure biologically, that would help with that problem, but I don't have anything to model that on since all the animals I know tend to stay on the planet.

[elevelvetor]

[ yes, she's never heard of a space squid or... oh! ]

why not study deep sea creatures? i believe they much be able to have some way to regulate their own pressure, given the abyss's nature of high pressure.

[thesettingsun]

That's a great idea! I don't know how I didn't think of it before. Thanks so much~~~

[elevelvetor]

sometimes it takes an outsider's eye to determine what is necessary!
also, soundboarding is helpful as well. i believe.
at least, it always seems to help people when they require a topic for their final essay.

[thesettingsun]

Please don't talk to me about essays right now.

[He should be working on one instead of doing this...]

[elevelvetor]

are you avoiding work? for shame.

[thesettingsun]

I'm not! I'm just taking a short break! You've gotta rest your mind sometimes if you want quality writing!

[elevelvetor]

is that so?
well, if you take too many short breaks, soon your deadline will be upon you.

[thesettingsun]

I'd never do that!

[He has done that, a lot. But he won't this year! ...As much!]
