[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.

It's nice not to be the only one.
I think.

What happens when people get weird memories and we lose colors?

[dryeye]

Well, the fact that it's spreading to so many people has a lot of odd implications. But I guess that's another slightly more positive way to look at it too.

Bit of a silly question, isn't it? "People would be confused and irritated", if I had to take a wild guess. Not much of a test at all.


A lot of comments on here keep mentioning "weird memories". You know what they mean by that, exactly? [Since Shouto's mentioning it a lot too, now...so it looks like he probably knows? Might as well ask here, he guesses.]

[glaciers]

Maybe they're aliens. [He may or may not be joking.]

Memories that aren't really yours, but you see yourself in them. They also kind of feel like yours.
It's uncomfortable.

[dryeye]

[Things nobody needs to know: the half minute or so Aizawa spent squinting at that first bit, trying to decide whether or not that was indeed actually a joke. Verdict is still unsure but for the sake of...continuing the conversation....]

I'm not going to ask if you're serious about that suggestion...

"Uncomfortable" seems to be putting it lightly. Are you speaking from experience?

[glaciers]

[He was a little serious, but as log as Aizawa isn't going to press him...]

I've gotten a few of them now.
My double has superpowers and I don't think he likes having them.

[dryeye]

[His weirdness quota is already full enough for one day, he's not ready to add possible aliens to it yet ok...

Case in point:]


Superpowers.

[....That's it, that's the message. Sorry, he needs a moment here...]

[glaciers]

Ice on the right and fire on the left.
There was also a guy with a bird head.

[dryeye]

[Where.........does he even begin.]

That seems excessive.

[There, that's as good a start as any. Both a fire power and an ice power at once?? ...Though honestly all of this is pretty--]

Just a head. Not the rest of him? [???????]

[glaciers]

I know. I always thought one of those was enough.

The rest of him was completely human. With hands and everything.

[dryeye]

One of those should definitely be plenty enough. [Just burn a thing or freeze a thing, make up your mind? And he still doesn't know what to make of the bird...guy....thing, so he's just. Going to put that to one side now. Let's just...] But "superpowers", that's very...you're not a comic book character. None of that's rational in the least.

[........Hold on--]

Is this why you've got your hair dyed like that? [Inspired? By your apparently half-and-half past?? He doesn't even know, this is just a lot of things kind of slotting in at once honestly]

[glaciers]

I don't know what else to call them. It's not like it's part of normal life or anything.

[....... ??????????? Why would he ever want to dye his hair like this?? It's just a pain to try and keep it died back to just red.]

No, my double had it like this. And I woke up with it.
But dying it back to fully red would take a lot of upkeep.

[Ah. He's kind of lazy about his own appearance.]

[dryeye]

When you describe it that way it doesn't sound like it, no. That is essentially spontaneous combustion and freezing simultaneously if we want to try quantifying it, though. [He...guesses.....and that's a lot more of a mouthful than 'superpowers', admittedly, but still. Still!!

Also look he doesn't know what teens these days are into, half-and-half hair seems just as feasible as literally anything else at this point?? One of these days he'll know you enough to realize you're a terrible gauge for teen trends of the day anyway, sorry Shouto...]

Just woke up with it one morning? You're saying it changed that way overnight.

It's actually natural down to the roots? [If he needs to re-dye it then probably yes, but....what even. Somehow this is managing to get even more ridiculous than the guy with the bird head??]

[glaciers]

[He stares at this for a few minutes.]

That's too long. I'm staying with superpowers.

[Excuse you? He's a very fashionable teenager when it doesn't come to his truly ridiculous hair. At least he doesn't go around in mislabeled t-shirts or anything as ridiculous as that.

But there's nothing he can do about the hair. So...]

That's right. My eyebrows are like that too. It's all natural and completely weird.
