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 RecollΓ© 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.

You might consider dropping notes off directly if it's sensitive, and you know somewhere you can do so safely. There's always options if the mail is not secure.

I imagine a courier business could make a fortune, though, if this goes on.

Oh! What if I use my dog, Kara, to send my messages or packages to other people? It'll allow her to meet new friends and keep sensitive messages safe.

The best of both worlds!!

Well, as long as Kara is good at getting back home safe and sound. We wouldn't want her to get lost, now would we?
caelestialis: (073. πŸŒ• this all was ours.)

[personal profile] caelestialis 2017-06-15 07:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Definitely not. She's kind of a house dog but her getting the chance to explore the city some more would do her some good. It's just a plus she gets to help me along the way.

Oh! I just realised something. You haven't gotten the chance to meet her in person, right?
[ or, you know, meet ainsley in person period but let's focus on kara for now. sure. ]

To tell you the truth? I don't think you and I have even met personally, but I have definitely not met your dog yet. What sort of breed is she?
caelestialis: (095. πŸŒ• i feel like i had it all.)

[personal profile] caelestialis 2017-06-16 06:41 am (UTC)(link)
Mixed collie breed! I adopted her from the shelter after asking here on the app for advice on who I should adopt. It's been a match made in heaven ever since we first met.

Do you want to see pictures of her?
[ please say no, chloe. for your sake... just say no... ]

[personal profile] true_noir 2017-06-16 01:46 pm (UTC)(link)
She sounds adorable, not to mention I would expect quite energetic. It's a very energetic breed after all.

I would love to!


[Nope, she's not smart like that, not at all.]
caelestialis: (098. πŸŒ• to talk to me.)

[personal profile] caelestialis 2017-06-20 01:35 am (UTC)(link)
She's actually very laid-back since she's rather old but Kara is an absolute sweetheart.

Give a me second to load all the photos. Some of them are my absolutely favourite!


[ rip chloe's phone battery as ainsley sends +7 photos of her dog. a lot of them featuring kara either napping, looking at the camera in confusion, or wearing a funny hat. ]

Eh, she upgraded her phone right before Retrospec, so it can handle a few photos. At least they weren't videos. those would get deleted.

Oooh, she's adorable! Thank you!
caelestialis: (084. πŸŒ• and there are people.)

Isn't she! She's just an angel.

Back on topic because I get really distracted with all the cute pictures: I mentioned her because I have been meaning to have her meet new faces. So she can get used to people.

And since we haven't met in person either, why not make this a double event? It'll be nice to finally meet a person who's been nothing but kind to me since all of this mayhem began.

That isn't a bad idea. We could meet at a dog park sometime. I like watching dogs after all, so that could be fun. Nadia is a sweetie, but she's not fit to meet random strangers in an open place like that. She's still got too much 'stray' in her, so she might run off.

Whenever you want though, I'd be happy to meet you.
