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.

It could potentially help my bank account. That'd be something.

I was being dramatic. But, still kinda believe that I'm being subjected to a series of mind tricks as a result of a drug experiment. Otherwise, I have to buy into the claims that colors have been "lost" and can be "fixed."

Well. I definitely haven't been drugged, unless someone's sneaking into my place at night and that's not something I want to consider. So unless it's all a computer program like the Matrix, the only thing I can think to do is accept that my once blue eyes are now grey.

Accepting what’s right in front of you is the most practical action to take.

Far more practical than my initial knee jerk reaction of creating a bunker to survive the apocalypse.

[mincingminuet]

Occam's Razor, the simplest answer is the most likely.

Things to remember: Weird shit will happen. You're not alone though. You may get weird stuff in the mail, but you're not alone, and you may see things you think aren't real, like visions and things. You're not alone there either.

The practical course is to accept that it's happening and ask for help or advice here. We're all in this together.

[ladya]

Hmm. And with the power of all, we’ll be able to combat anything that comes our way?

… Not sure if you can tell, being facetious. I do appreciate the words of advice. You’re right, better together than alone.

[mincingminuet]

Oh I got it.

Just figured you deserved a warning, y'know. It definitely caught me off guard the first time I saw crazy visions.
