[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.

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. ]

[lecturehall]

See? This is what I was hoping for. Thank you.

Although I'm not sure how I feel about the police seeing my social network posts...

[admiringly]

oh yay my intent came through!
the flip side is you can see their posts too?
i'd also hope they're too busy doing their jobs so they can't check every social media post unless they're like cyber security or something?

[lecturehall]

Ooh. They could be worse. People get physically changed here, right? I saw someone mention it. What if there's a robocop in our midst?

[keito,]

[admiringly]

[ can you believe she's seriously considering this ]

well...
then we'll have to hope they're on our side
or can be swayed to our side
like the terminator

[lecturehall]

Then the odds are in our favor. Every android story always has one sympathetic one. The trouble now is to find one. Maybe a poll?

[he is having the time. of. his. life.]

[admiringly]

you'd think someone would post about becoming an android
but that kind of would be body horror wouldn't it?
maybe a wanted ad?
like for a dating profile but for...
whatever this is?

[lecturehall]

Maybe. I guess we could simply use the network here. That'd probably be the easiest option.

Hypothetically.

[admiringly]

are we only talking hypothetically?
because i do think that's true
that retrospec would be the best option
since it looks like only people on this app are having these changes happening to them?
i don't see anyone on any other platform talking about these things

[lecturehall]

Do you want to ask?

[admiringly]

...
do you think it's a polite thing to ask?
like it's not fishy sounding or anything?

[lecturehall]

I don't think it'd be RUDE to ask. Maybe just a bit unusual? It seems like that's the new normal around here though.. maybe we could get away with it?

[admiringly]

well...
if you think it'll be ok i don't mind asking?

[lecturehall]

this isn't what i was expecting to happen on here.
sure. why not? let's do it.

[admiringly]

what were you expecting?

[lecturehall]

Something more normal, I guess? I don't usually get to goof around on social media.

It's nice.

[admiringly]

awww i'm glad that you got the chance!
i think i'm a little sillier online than i am offline
and it's a little freeing?

[lecturehall]

It is!
And there are a lot of interesting people to get to know.
Though sometimes I do get out of hand. Then it's just embarrassing.

[admiringly]

i'm sure you're not as embarrassing as you think!
there are more embarrassing people out there

[lecturehall]

Obviously.
Still, I'd like to not be included in their ranks.

[admiringly]

with your confidence i'm sure you won't!
it looks like it'd be hard for others to make that mistake?
probably?
