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.

About fixing things?

Comes off as less the face of an inscrutable manipulator than a bumbling sorcerer's apprentice playing with forces beyond his ken, put like that.

[true_noir]

I lean towards believing he's more like the latter, but he wants us to believe he's the former. It's hard to be sure which, and it may depend on the day.

[trivialization]

As far as he's concerned I think he's probably just a face anyway. Who does their own PR?

[true_noir]

Do you think he's someone that they hire just to keep us busy in that case? So that we're not even dealing with the real problem?

[trivialization]

Hired, grew in a tube, conjured from thin air. Maybe he's just a junior partner to the coven? Can take it all sorts of ways. I prefer them to the idea that anyone as petty an insufferable is in charge of this.

Even if it would explain a lot.

[true_noir]

You know, as much as I want a target for my aggressions, you're right. I don't like the idea that someone this stupid could possibly be in charge. It would explain how stupid all of this feels most days, but it would be far less comfortable in the long run.

You really want an explanation that makes more sense than Jim in charge, don't you?

[trivialization]

I'm not sure I'd call it a strong desire. This is just filling time and air. I want to know what the game is, the big plan, the final objective.

Maybe not even that...

[true_noir]

You just want to know something more than we already know in the first place? Or at this point, we are speaking just to have something to do, because he hasn't given us much choice in the matter?
