[recollecters]

Hello Users, For those of you who are new: Welcome to Retrospec™, the last social media network you will ever need. You are one of the few selected to test this exciting new platform based on our cutting-edge algorithms. Membership is not currently open to the public. However, we hope you will come to see how useful Retrospec™ is, given time. We have for your use a variety of features such as text, voice, video, and image posts. We encourage you to explore our many options. For all, new and old: Please be advised that should you go above and beyond the call of duty for Mr. Halloway's little game in the coming days, there may be a reward granted or information given. 100% completion would be the goal for that, should you have an interest. If you have no interest in the matter, please feel free to carry on as usual. R&D will not be handling further communiques for this month, or possibly the next few months. This should not, of course, have any impact on your usage of Retrospec™. The first milestone for the second of the colors lost has been met, and accordingly we have diverted resources to fix what could be fixed. R&D has alerted me that a bigger loss may occur in the near future, and I would advise you to be careful, though I am afraid neither they nor I can be much more detailed than that. Finally, I would like to extend congratulations to those of you who have now reached your sixth month. We hope you will continue to accept our assistance in these trying times. Thank you for your patience, Janet Wiseman Human Resources Retrspec Incorporated As of this post green fruits and flowers of this color regain their pigment. (Note: this is not all plants. This is just for flowers and fruits!) 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. Any new characters will find that the first photo they upload is locked as their profile picture for the rest of the month. Characters who have been in game since February will find their profiles now have a 6 months badge. It does absolutely nothing of note.

[ Let's see. There's Mary. Takumi and maybe Shin sometimes, so -- ]

no

[tarotcards]

Of course I'm serious.

It's on the same level as the theory about being inside a virtual reality, really, and when you truly think about it, the theory about all this being a virtual reality is rather hard to believe as well.

[storytelleroftime]

It's the latter, fyi. You can tell by the typo.

But wait, the magic you've remembered? What magic you've remembered? Now that's actually something interesting.

[tarotcards]

And that's why we're partners.

[godcards]

Now that you mention it... It'd do them some good to clear up the color issue, as people won't stop talking about it. What is the point of their HR department if we never hear from them, anyway? This is what they're FOR.

[tarotcards]

What makes you say that?

[hauhra]

Unnecessary? Probably not to them... especially if they're willing to go through this much trouble to make it happen. Wouldn't you agree, Yugi?

[originallutece]

You've the same awful sense of humor.

[storytelleroftime]

Huh. Then I guess I owe you a performance then, since you're actually willing to indulge me.

[godcards]

Don't you think that's suspicious? What could they possibly have to hide... Their building is entirely empty and the refuse to communicate other than the posts every month or so. They have to be keeping their distance for a reason beyond being terrible at their jobs, don't you agree?

[strayknight]

hm

you need to get out some.

[Says the vloger that sleeps in random locations.]

[tarotcards]

That's very true. They put a lot of work and effort into this app. I can't imagine that they'd try to restrict us from using it.

Then maybe they'll take away all of our sense asides from sight? I suppose we'd have to communicate solely through sign language or through the app then.

[strayknight]

lol if you can tease m~e!

[invocate]

Li-Na Yiu How did I forget horses? I have been in this country less than a month.

[foxwitted]

I don't know, everyone's been very helpful so far!
[ She's an optimist, Emil. Run.]

[tarotcards]

I wouldn't go so far to say that it's awful. It's just a little unique.

[storytelleroftime]

Yes. They have ruined 4chan with their color removal and I want to know why! Were the normies that make up the R&D department of Retrospec unaware that such an action would initiate a meme war?!?

But in all seriousness, yes. Giving an official statement on that matter is their job.

[foxwitted]

...Mr. Ichirou.

I'm a college student.

Define 'weird'.

[storytelleroftime]

Oh believe me, I can and I will.

[foxwitted]

That's...I can't even wrap my mind about how that's possible.

Someone said something about 'false memories', too.

[admiringly]

at the very least you won't be alone with anything you experience!
people have been forming groups to help out each other and if there's one good thing this app has done it's to show is that people can band together for support!
but um there is no hiding that weird things have happened since people have gotten the app
and i hope things go smoother rather than rougher for you
but i know there are police officers and doctors and other such people on the app if you want someone with more... authority(?) to turn to for help?

[ is that comforting? she's Trying. ]

[parodeity]

ok but
IS the userbase really hip and casual aki

[parodeity]

am i supposed to be either thing
but tbh ill answer any questions you come up with
if i know the answers anyway

[sonofpatriots]

Of course I do. I wasn't born yesterday and I have a full liquor cabinet.

[elevelvetor]

that sounds the most likely.
at least sign language would give us the benefit of being able to communicate without them being completely aware of what we were saying.
and it looks good on your resume as well, or so i've heard.

more seriously, the possibility they'd like us to become reliant on the app, or at least technology in general...
i'm almost certain there are several cyperpunk dystopias with a similar plot?
