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.

Because I wanted to see you flinch?

Well I didn't flinch so ha!

[He just went immediately to the internet to purchase the biggest lot of earplugs that he could find.]

You bought earplugs, ergo you flinched.

[ Yes, Yoon-sung is a terrible person. He's not sorry. ]

What do those two things even have to do with each other?
I'm just taking precautions!!

Look. The only way that bugs get into ears is if you're the kind of person who sleeps outside under a garbage can or in a run-down slum house. Otherwise, it's a little rare.

Rare still doesn't mean impossible and I'm not taking any chances.

[He's committed to this now, Yoon-sung.]

You do realize that you can't wear earplugs all the time, right? It's going to get you into more danger then a bug in your ear. Like getting run over by a car or falling bricks hitting you or Bob with a gun showing up.

I was only going to wear them when I was asleep!

[For all other times, he has earbuds.]

And falling bricks would hit me even if I wasn't wearing earplugs! And who is Bob and why does he have a gun?!

As if I would tell you what about Bob.

But fine, wear earplugs all the time.

haha if you aren't careful people are going to think you're scheming with Bob

You're scheming with Bob, aren't you?! Or at least someone named Bob!!

Me? I wasn't even born when Bob started his thing.

No, I'm not. He's gotten me at one time and I'm just spreading the word.

Wait
Are you telling me that you're some kind of Good Samaritan?

I try to be one.

You do? Since when?

Because it's the easiest way to get presents from the Good Deed Fairy.

There's no such thing.

What kind of presents would the Good Deed Fairy give anyway? [Not that he believes in it, but still. It's good to know just in case.]

[ at this point, yoon-sung is laughing his head off because this guy is believing everything and it is great. ]

Who else would unexpectedly drop money in your path or suddenly give you a promotion that you never thought you would get?

Mysterious ones~.

Isn't that just good luck? Or karma?

Besides, who'd want a "mysterious~" gift anyways? That sounds really sketchy!

That's just another name for the Fairy.

Anything that appears that has no reason to appear but is still good for you.

So it's actually just good luck and karma.

Oh, well, as long as it's good for you?

Wait, no
That still sounds sketchy! Who left it there?! I'm not going to buy that it's a fairy! Do you think I'm some kind of kid!!

I don't know, are you a kid?

Obviously not! If anyone here is a kid, it would probably be you!

Nope, not even close to being one unless you count 25 a kid's age.

Physical and mental age don't have to match up.

I suppose so!
