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.

i'm guessing you're one of the people who had a super mega bad time out there when everyone was tiny?

[thesettingsun]

I'm scared of bears normally, I don't need to go see Mega Deluxe Bears. I stayed out of the forest the whole time we were shrunk.

[sharplydressed]

you didn't miss out on much tbf
just those giant flowers and some creepy things
no bears though, at least! (ﾟｰﾟ;

[thesettingsun]

Small mercies. Bugs and birds were bad enough, I can hardly even picture running into something bigger than a person normally.

this one too heck IM SORRY AGAIN

[sharplydressed]

yeah the dogs in the apartment block were bad enough
i don't even know what's out in the forest though??
i'm not really the hiking type so it's not like i ever went out there for fun
but something sketchy is definitely happening

[thesettingsun]

I can personally confirm that there are raccoons and bears in the woods, at least.

I don't usually go out there, but I wanted to see what it looked like without colors. "Depressing" is the answer, by the way.

[sharplydressed]

ugh i can only imagine
the beach is probably even worse
grey on grey isn't a good look like 9 out of 10 times tbh
but at least the bears and stuff are probably easier to spot now?

[thesettingsun]

That's one bright spot. Against an ugly grey background.

The beach is pretty bad... Couldn't they have done this in winter or something when everything was kind of colorless anyway?

[sharplydressed]

they probably figured that wouldnt make us miserable enough

[thesettingsun]

Of course. What was I thinking.

[sharplydressed]

it's okay, it's easy to forget that there are people out there who are total spiteful maniacs that want to literally ruin lives

[thesettingsun]

I need to stop assuming that people have basic human decency.

[sharplydressed]

sad but not untrue
but hey!
now you have a convenient reminder, you can just look up at our ugly sky

[thesettingsun]

Every time I step outside, I'll get reminded that someone hates me and everyone else. Yaaaaaaay.

[sharplydressed]

just use it as an incentive to kick jims ass extra hard later

[thesettingsun]

I don't think I can kick his ass any harder than I'm planning to. All I can do is get creative with revenge plots.

[sharplydressed]

that works too tbh
i'll look forward to seeing what you come up with!

[thesettingsun]

I'm happy with 'lock him in a room where the entire floor is covered with Legos' right now but I'm always open to suggestions.

[sharplydressed]

dunk tank is also a personal fav of mine
but why not both?

[thesettingsun]

Both. Both is good.

And I think Janet should get a restraining order, but that's on her.

[sharplydressed]

if she hasn't already she probably will soon lbr
no one can deal with this kind of asshole forever

[thesettingsun]

You can do better, Janet!

Mostly because it'd be hard to do worse.

[sharplydressed]

lmao
watch us find out that every other retrospec employee is actually even more of an asshole than jim

[thesettingsun]

Yikes. I don't even want to imagine it. A company made entirely of dickbags.

[sharplydressed]

at least we wouldn't have to feel bad at all about totally trashing a company like that
