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.

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.

I've never heard it. But I will do my best to find a way to make it happen.

Did Did she just lick a hammer? Why is she naked? What is this?

it's the song I was talking about!

or rather, the music video for the song I was talking about

If I am being honest. I could barely pay attention to the song. The video was distracting.

yeaaaah well

it's Miley

but you see what I mean about blasting this song if we do the wrecking ball route

If, on the chance we manage to procure a wrecking ball, everyone operating it will remain fully clothed at all times.

LOL

yes of course Cleo, I'll make sure it happens if our wrecking ball plan goes through

And also, no one will lick it.

right

nobody will lick it

honestly I think that part was just Miley doing stuff for the music video, I don't think anyone would REALLY lick one, especially if it's actually been used in demolishing

I don't normally watch music videos, so I can't say. But that is easily one of the most bizarre things I've ever seen, and I am counting Retrospec in that list. Is that... What was the term. "Surrealist art"?

probably lmao

it's pretty infamous, it became a huge meme when it came out

I even tried singing it a few times at karaoke myself

I suppose I should pay more attention to these things. Karaoke?

yeah! Have you ever been?

I do not know what it is.

OH

karaoke places are where you can go to use a big machine that basically has a huge playlist of songs that you can sing along with

it's a lot more fun than I make it sound, trust me haha

[... singing along with things

getting attention on her sounds very unpleasant, especially since she can't sing and she knows it.]

I'll take your word for it. But if it was not obvious, no, I have never been.

do you want to try it?

That seems inadvisable. I can't sing.

if karaoke places only catered to people who could sing they'd be out of business!

it doesn't matter if you can or can't, it's just something for fun

Is that not embarrassing?

it is at first, but it helps with building up your self-confidence, I've found!

How?

it takes a little bit of courage to do it!

you're choosing a song that you like, that might even be important to you, and deciding to sing it to the best of your ability

all of this applies ten times as much if you go sing karaoke by yourself

I see. That is quite enlightening. Thank you.

[read: she is so alarmed by the idea she is never, ever going to do it, ever.]
