Maurice was going to do this, but Maurice sucks so I sent him home before he could. Anyway, some of you may have noticed our new poll feature! We just don't have the time and resources to cater to all your "where is x item, what the fuck" complaints, so we had to streamline. The polls were the result of that! Coded them myself. I mean, Maurice did some of it, but I did most of it. So basically we're democratically crowd-sourcing what we're going to bother to fix for you! You can send thank you notes to the building, HR doesn't mind. So far it seems like you all care about the color blue most, so we fixed it! A little, anyway. I suggest a bracing walk through the woods if you particularly missed the color and don't feel like gazing deeply into a hobo's eyes. You've all been reading up on QR codes, right? You might also want to learn to start a fire. Just a tip. Jim Halloway Research & Development Retrspec Incorporated As per the World Regains tracker, fruits and flowers that were once blue are once again blue. This includes the echo flowers in the Recollé woods! NPCs seem to be incapable of seeing this color still, however, and will not note any differences. The color does not seem capable of being transferred to anything else, either, and any attempts to do so will simply fade the color of the thing you were trying to use to do that. Furthermore, one thread of at least 10 comments from you from this post may be supplied for one untriggered memory by linking the thread and in explanation putting "June Freebie". This may only be claimed through the rest of June, and may not be claimed after the month ends. 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.

why bother taking the color blue away just to fix it a month later???? What's the POINT?

also, thanks for covering me re: fire starting, Seth and I are more than happy to show you how we can start one

[notbunaga]

you up for a trip to the woods
there might not be anything there, but even if that's the case the walk'll do you good

[She did say she'd come on any investigating, last time.]

[complementing]

I was actually organizing a big group to get down there so yeah, definitely up for it

you free on the 18th?

[notbunaga]

sure am

although
i wanna talk to you about something else related to this
just in private
give me a second

[Better take it to the DMs]

[complementing]

( ・◇・) okay sure

btw do you need camping equipment?

[destiny_key]

maybe they broke something and they only just fixed it???

kind of a long shot though

[complementing]

it's possible

I can't imagine that whatever science or magic or power that's making all these world changes is easy maintain, it's literally changing reality after all...

though if it really is just a switch they can turn on and off then we might be in more trouble than we think

[destiny_key]

i dont think so???
since it looks like its only coming back a little

[complementing]

they might have a lot of switches and knobs, idk

[true_noir]

Well, he hasn't fixed everything. The sky is still very much gray. And please don't do that in town, Minako. Please.

[complementing]

yeah, but you know what I mean, right??? Why bother? Why 'offer' to give any of it back to us? What are we supposed to do to get it all back?

I won't

I'm tempted to but I won't

[true_noir]

Believe me. I understand the temptation all too well. It's terrible sometimes.

And, they sent out some random surveys to a few of us apparently? So, if you get one, vote for what you want "Fixed." A way to make us feel dependent on him I'm guessing?

[complementing]

I wouldn't doubt it, but what did you do to get the survey in the first place, I wonder...any idea?

[cattack]

The point is to anger us.
I do not know who Seth is, but you will have my assistance for it.

[complementing]

it worked, I'm pretty goddamn angry

ah

do you remember [tackling] meeting me on the beach earlier this month?

Seth is related to that conversation we had

[cattack]

Ah.

[... did Minako name her gun Seth. Is that what she's getting at here?

cleo, no.]

The more it angers us, the happier Jim will be, I imagine.
Let us use that anger productively.
For example, by setting their building on fire.

[strawberrypunch]

Its not fixed
My hoodies are still gray

[And it's incredibly depressing yet.]

Seth?

[complementing]

right but SOME of it is fixed, and why bother taking it away if it's going to be fixed so quickly?

Seth is

he's a lot of things

a summon, and a part of me

one of the other Minako's abilities that I got from Retrospec

[strawberrypunch]

[As long as we have that very important part sorted out.

Speaking of important things:]

Summon?

[And, his mind going immediately to comics and all:]

Like with a circle?

[Is. Is she talking about demons or. Please don’t tell him summoning demons is real now.]

[admiringly]

they're hanging it over our heads because they're awful
but i'm honestly happy to get some blue back
even if this means i'm playing into their hands
but minako...
are you really going to set things on fire?

[complementing]

no, don't feel bad about it Chiyo-chan. After losing two colors, it's natural to feel relieved that some of it is back. It's normalcy that we all want again

also I'm REALLY REALLY REALLY tempted to

but no

I could, but I can't, and I won't

[admiringly]

they shouldn't have taken it away from us in the first place
none of it

and you know what
i'd say it'd be a little ok if anyone sets jim's computer on fire
i wouldn't say no to that

[accordance]

Tell me if you go anywhere.

[complementing]

I'm...going into the woods on the 18th?

[accordance]

With company, I hope?
