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.

Probably? I think it's food dye or something.

Most likely. It's a little depressing when you know it's all dye though, don't you think? It's like it's not even real.

[personal profile] glaciers 2017-07-02 04:17 am (UTC)(link)
Does it really matter if it's real or not?
As long as it tastes good that's the important part.

Perhaps, but you should also know what you're eating.

What if someone handed you something and told you that it was chicken? You eat it and you think it's delicious but then you find out that it was actually something like a bunch of bugs?


[ Souji, that example isn't even close to food colouring... ]

You went really far away from food coloring.
That's a completely different issue.
tarotcards: (( ´∀`)(●´∀`●))

[personal profile] tarotcards 2017-07-02 04:30 am (UTC)(link)
Is it? It's the same underlying issue though.
glaciers: (14)

[personal profile] glaciers 2017-07-02 04:32 am (UTC)(link)
No, I don't think so.
Food dye is just an issue of color.
You still know what it is.

[personal profile] tarotcards 2017-07-02 04:35 am (UTC)(link)
Or so we think.

How did they get blue dye if we don't even have natural blue foods?
glaciers: (21)

[personal profile] glaciers 2017-07-02 04:38 am (UTC)(link)
Apparently coal.
And some kind of plant.
tarotcards: (souji4)

[personal profile] tarotcards 2017-07-02 04:42 am (UTC)(link)
Coal, really?

[ Souji knows about the plants since he did eventually go and try to use them as a type of dye with his brother, but what, coal?? ]
glaciers: (21)

[personal profile] glaciers 2017-07-02 05:30 am (UTC)(link)
Coal tar?
I don't really know the difference.
tarotcards: (tumblr_inline_n304u5VzCP1qhaskl)

[personal profile] tarotcards 2017-07-02 06:23 am (UTC)(link)
That still doesn't sound very good to eat. Would you really want to eat blue food dye now that you know it's from coal or coal tar?
glaciers: (28)

[personal profile] glaciers 2017-07-02 06:24 am (UTC)(link)
It's apparently safe to ingest.
I'm okay with it.
tarotcards: ((´^`))

[personal profile] tarotcards 2017-07-02 06:33 am (UTC)(link)
Safe for how long, though? Some things can take a while before they start having an effect on you, like eating too much spicy food.

I don't think anybody's died from blue food coloring.

[personal profile] tarotcards 2017-07-02 06:46 am (UTC)(link)
So far. I'm sure in a couple of years, it will be all over the news.
glaciers: (38)

[personal profile] glaciers 2017-07-02 10:51 pm (UTC)(link)
People have been using blue food dye for years.
tarotcards: ((*˙︶˙*))

[personal profile] tarotcards 2017-07-02 11:43 pm (UTC)(link)
And this is when the fall of food dye will finally begin.

[personal profile] glaciers 2017-07-02 11:49 pm (UTC)(link)
Are you joking or serious?
tarotcards: ((´∀`))

[personal profile] tarotcards 2017-07-03 01:27 am (UTC)(link)
What do you think?
glaciers: (13)

[personal profile] glaciers 2017-07-03 01:30 am (UTC)(link)
I can't really tell.
tarotcards: ((◍•ᴗ•◍))

[personal profile] tarotcards 2017-07-03 02:22 am (UTC)(link)
Then I suppose it'd remain a mystery.

Just like where the colour blue went.
