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.

[finally a connoisseur of true art who understands how to appreciate shitposting. GOOD KID!]

The original is a poem by Martin Niemöller about the rise of Nazism and the cowardice of Germany's intellectual elite in the face of the violence and persecution that moved through different groups of German society.
This is my Retrospec-inspired rewrite, first written when the horses disappeared on us.

that's a much deeper answer than i was expecting
tbh
the context manages to make it even more depressing than before
geez

still tho. good job.
i think?

[splinten]

An uncertain 'good job' is the best kind to get.
Honestly, the most depressing part is that I don't know if there is anything we could do.

[secare]

yea
i


i hate to say it but there's nothing we can to change our situation
at least not right now
so we're basically at the whimsy of whatever psychotic jerks think that STEALING COLOURS is a good move
like being trapped in a bad 90s anime

I'm down for forming Captain Earth if you are. Air, Wind, Fire, Earth, Heart.
I'll take pity on everyone else and claim Heart's lameass skillset for myself.

[BECAUSE HE'S HEART PLAYER ALREADY god w h y ]

not praising it

[splinten]

Why would I not be praising a key member of my five man band here to save the world from environmental disaster?

[secare]

By replying, you all signed an inviolable contract to sing the song together. In case you didn't know.
