Hey, Users! This month's wikihow is right over here. In other news, don't you just love our logo colors? Such a nice shade of blue. I'm pretty fond of it myself! You know, Janet has blue eyes. But then, I guess you guys don't know anyone with eyes that color anymore, right? Whoops. Anyway, see you next month! Well, some of you anyway. :) Jim Halloway Research & Development Retrspec Incorporated As discussed on the monthly plot post the colors blue and green are now gray - except for the blue on the retrospec application logo and their building sign, although no NPC will be capable of seeing the color in these places. As stated in the plot post, NPCs will also seem to be completely unaware that the colors blue and green ever existed. Oops. 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. Last's month's application round characters are now capable of changing their profile pictures.

So are we getting these colors back or did you take them for good? You've ruined my wardrobe, you monster.

[This is coming from "Gunther Schwarz" instead of "Jaeger" but whatever, he's got his priorities in order!!]

Thank you for your valuable contribution.

[thesettingsun]

I don't have anything else to add really. This is fucked up. At least it's summer and warm colors are in season, but what about when it gets to winter? What is winter without blue??

[scythegun]

I've simply never been able to pull off anything quite as well as blue! Losing that is like losing a part of MYSELF, it's simply dreadful!

[is he being overdramatic on purpose or is he that fucked up, who knows]

[thesettingsun]

I'd be saying the same thing if they'd taken away red.

[At least they're kindred spirits, whether overdramatic or fucked up or both.]

[scythegun]

Consider yourself lucky! Though don't make too big a deal of it or they might take red next!

[thesettingsun]

I hope I didn't give them ideas. Maybe I should not say anything anymore. Maybe I should take a vow of silence. It's the only way.

[scythegun]

You could start now! All of your replies from now on have to be "..." or they'll take your words too seriously!

[daemonized]

Indeed they have with mine as well; capital offense.

[scythegun]

It's terrible, isn't it? I'll have to rework almost everything now!

[daemonized]

What shall we do with all of the greys, then? Throw them out?

[scythegun]

I'm tempted to, but part of me wants to hope that the color will return someday. Perhaps that's hoping for too much, though!

[daemonized]

Ah, but one must not discard their hope so easily, else what do we have left?

What article of clothing do you mourn for the most?

[scythegun]

Not much, it seems! Certainly not my suits, anyway, which are the articles of clothing I'll miss the most!

[daemonized]

A dreadful shame. An expensive loss, at that. You have my condolences.

[scythegun]

I appreciate it! Has the sudden loss of color destroyed your wardrobe as well?

[b0mbshell]

I'm pretty worried about my eyes and wardrobes too but I gotta admit, I wish the grass wasn't the same color as the road now.

[scythegun]

That's going to cause problems isn't it? I doubt the police will accept "I'm used to the grass being a different color" as an excuse for running off the road.

[b0mbshell]

"Sorry officer. I lose track of barriers now."

I guess this is a good way to show us if someone has lived with this for their whole life, they don't seem to notice.

[scythegun]

There's also the people who don't seem to notice much of ANYTHING when it comes to changes here.

[b0mbshell]

Basically the same thing.

It's not just like they don't notice. It's like they automatically get the knowledge of how to deal with it.

I don't know how many horse riders suddenly knew how to handle chocobos. I didn't even notice the difference at the time.

[scythegun]

Neither did I. I'm a bit more disturbed by the people acting like there was nothing wrong when we were all shrunk down, though. I had the horrifying realization that children were getting picked up by an ordinary-sized school bus and I'm still not over it.

[b0mbshell]

Let's say there's socks that used to be blue or green. They're in the dryer together. Same make. You get them out, and they're the same shade of gray.

Do you think people are going to notice if our socks don't match?

Because judging from that experience, I would bet they would. [And be a little creeped out by it.]

[scythegun]

It's possible that one will show up as a slightly different shade of gray! But to them it could be VERY obvious... I certainly wouldn't be surprised if that was the case.
