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 can see him being that petty, sadly enough.

We just wake up one day and all ours sweaters and thick blankets are gone with heaters gone and no one around us knows what heaters even are. That makes a lot more sense than what I thought he wanted to do.

what did you think he wanted to do?

I thought he wanted us to scan QR codes that would trigger fires around the city.

[ ainsley feray menodora how did you even reach that conclusion. ]

that would be a terrifying, new life mechanic

I was thinking that, too. Maybe he's going to make it snow in July?

well we don't need fire in the winter tho
so why bring up fire making skillz

What else would we need fire for?
A cookout? Bonfire? S'mores?

what if it's like ANTARCTICA COLD not like usual winter cold
and then if we don't wanna die we gotta build fires cuz there's nothing warm
i'm not opposed to smores though

Or he'll cut the electricity.

okay but that's dumb
because then we won't have retrospec if we can't get on our phones and the internet
and clearly they want to keep track of us soooo

You're saying this about the company that deleted the colors blue and green.

I'm sure they could find a way.

look sometimes you need to be optimistic in the unlikeliest of places
but i do suppose you have a point! we gotta be ready for the internet to still work even if the power's out
