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.

Right, I forgot you were new. Theoretically,
you aren't wrong, but try dealing with insects when you're between 4 to 6 inches tall, that's the kind of bullshit we've been dealing with on a regular basis ever since Retrospec happened.

It's not just weapons. Some of us have gotten odd trinkets or items in the mail - I've gotten playing cards of a game that doesn't exist - no explanation whatsoever. Who knows, maybe you'll receive a delivery sometime soon. Check back the older posts on the network, you'll see what I mean.

You can come watch. There are always some spectators milling around, at any rate.
Ask for Kaiba - most people around generally know who I am.

Wait, they shrunk you? How in the hell? Just how did they manage to do that?

What's really going on here? Has anyone gone to the authorities? Is this sort of conspiracy? Don't tell me little green men are real too.

I'll make sure to do some digging later but this is starting to sound sinister. Talk about bizarre.

Kaiba? Is that Japanese?

The current leading and most popular theory I'm more inclined to believe in is that this is some kind of fucked up virtual world that Retrospec is messing around with, and the shrinking just happened to be a week long glitch that fucked with everyone temporarily.

No one really knows what the hell is going on, to be honest. We're trying to share information among ourselves just to see if we can build a complete picture, and no,
no one has gone to the authorities. Try and show the app to anyone else you know that you think isn't on the network, you'll see why.

The authorities can't investigate an app that conveniently disappears when other people are asked about it.

Bizarre is kind of an understatement.

Yeah, it is. I was born there. International adoption.

Sounds like the synopsis of one my old works. You sure these Recollè folks aren't fans of Mayfly. The fanbase of that television show like to stalkfollow me even now.

So, we're all trapped in this odd city regardless with no one to help us? Damn, I didn't sign up for something like this! I'm supposed go be filming a movie.

Are you certain you was born overseas and not here? I mean, everything is fabricated, right? Or is just this city a complete lie?

The price of fame and fortune. I seem to have attracted the attention of some trashy tabloids that I can't seem to get rid of no matter what, unfortunately. My sympathies on your rabid fans. Mayfly was a pretty good movie, though.

Retrospec says they're helping us but I call bullshit. At this juncture, we're all on our own. My... friend is starting a support group sometime soon, actually, now would be as good a time as any to band together, at the risk of sounding fucking cliche.

I'm fairly certain. Unless my birth certificate and my adoption certificate are convincing forgeries.

But then again, my parents and brother seem unaware of the app and all the fucking bullshit changes that come with it, so who the hell even knows what's real and what's fabricated anymore?

Why thank you but I think you mixed up the TV show with the movie that followed it, Equanimity. Despite some of my gripes about the director, I certainly had fun playing as "Janus Cobbs". He's probably favorite character up to this date. That man is a lethal bounty hunter who's a 100% gun nut. Talk about fun!

Of course they think they're helping us. They wouldn't dare say otherwise, at least not publicly. There's enough outcry here against them as it is.

A Retrospec support group, huh? I might weigh in on that just to listen to some of the testimonies people have against this suspicious ass company. I want to know the truth without it being filtered by pure b.s.

That's real worrisome if you ask me.
