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.

Do you think they'll let us do a trade?

Bring back blue, give them brown!

[burningblossoms]

What about people with brown hair and eyes? I like my eyes.

I hope they don't take red next.

[frisyr]

We can trade off every week. And I've already done my time!

What else can we trade? Orange? I don't really like orange!

[burningblossoms]

Orange. Yeah, I can live without orange.

[frisyr]

Let's get it added to the poll! Trade Orange for Blue!

[burningblossoms]

Agreed.

Hopefully Jim actually reads this and isn't going completely crazy.

[frisyr]

Might be a little late for that.

And I guess I'm not the only one who doesn't know who Maurice is..

[burningblossoms]

I sure don't know who he is.

That's an unusual name though.

[frisyr]

You think maybe he's in the phonebook?

...Are there still phone books?

[burningblossoms]

Maybe? They may have gone the way of the phonebooth and Blockbuster.

Old people may still have them though. But Retrospect is new.

[frisyr]

Yea...h but Jim and Maurice and Janet had to have been alive for awhile, right?

[burningblossoms]

I assume so.

Unless they're something crazy like a computer code and we're in a simulation like Naoto suggested.

[frisyr]

Wait, but if we're in a simulation, then what are we all doing with our consciousnesses and our bodies?

Is consciousnesses a word?

[wordcarvings]

I'd rather not trade any colors, and instead have them all back.

[frisyr]

Ok but if that's not feasible then I think I'd trade blue for a lot of other colors!

[wordcarvings]

For the sake of the sky maybe but I’d just as much like to have green back. But any color being missing is troubling.

[frisyr]

Troubling yeah, but I'd think of all the annoyances we could have, let's hope for them to at least give us something while we work towards bringing the other thing back! Who knows what they'll take away in another month, or another week!

[wordcarvings]

Colors is a priority. I really don’t want to lose any more. But if it’ll help in getting more of both blue and green back I’ll hope they send me a lot of surveys.

Usually they don’t take things on a weekly basis, at least.

[frisyr]

No, but they take things away faster than we can ask for them back... What about all the fruit?

[wordcarvings]

Yeah, I know. I doubt we'll catch up anytime soon.

The fruit is bad as well, true. But some things are worse than others for painters.

[frisyr]

Well I get that colors being missing is bad for painters, but I think food becoming sentient is probably bad for anyone who eats!

[wordcarvings]

At least it's only a few of them. I'm not sure if they're any more sentient than animals, though.

[frisyr]

Do you kill your own animals!

[wordcarvings]

No, I don’t.

[frisyr]

Well I don't want to kill the smiling fruit!
