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. This post is an overflow from the original post here. Feel free to either carry over threads from there or create entirely new ones.

Look, if we're getting married, you better have somewhere for me to move in with you.

[matchbreaker]

I need to interview you in person before I allow anything *that* serious!

[maskreant]

all right.

should i bring any offerings?

[matchbreaker]

I'm not going to tell you that, you need to use your own intuition!

[maskreant]

right.

i'll do my best to impress you, then. please look forward to it.

[matchbreaker]

Excellent! I most certainly will!

I like this one, Silver!

[feistytrader]

He's a good friend.

[RIP Silver 2017]

akira kurusu liked this comment.

[maskreant]

thanks.

[matchbreaker]

Of course that does mean I'm expecting a lot from you. Try not to let me down.

[feistytrader]

please don't

[Holy shit, he gave up his damn capitalization and punctuation.]

[matchbreaker]

Why not?

[feistytrader]

or at least please be nice

[matchbreaker]

Of course I'm nice.

[maskreant]

i have a cardboard box?

[feistytrader]

Good enough for me.

[maskreant]

we'll get a kiddie pool for your crocodile.

what did you name him again?

[feistytrader]

His name's Aoi.

Get me another kiddie pool for us, too. We can use it to block out the rain.

[maskreant]

that's a nice name. good choice. also, i'll consider a second one after my next paycheck.

so for sanity's sake, we can just hang out at my place instead. if you want/prefer.

[feistytrader]

What a coincidence, I'm already halfway there.

[Not really, but it gets the point across.]

You want anything while I'm out?

[Holy shit, the rare food offering. It's happening.]

[maskreant]

[ !!! ]

watermelon.

[feistytrader]

Can do. Be right there.

[True to his word, it doesn't take terribly long for him to show up; Totodile's the one that does the knocking for him, as his hands are a bit preoccupied with the biggest watermelon he could find.

...Look, sometimes it's fun to be comedically excessive. Sometimes that means you might get yourself some watermelon out of the deal, and watermelon is absolutely delicious.]

Hey Akira, I got your watermelon!

[maskreant]

[ Akira's mother is home, but she has locked herself up in her study... So it lets him be the face of welcome as he opens the door, looking down to the watermelon with these sparkling eyes. ]

It's huge.

[ Then there's the Totodile. ]

... He's huge.

[ Since this is the first day he actually realizes this isn't normal. ]

[feistytrader]

And he's one of the smaller ones. I've remembered a lot of others.

[This must be even weirder than the damn missing horses for him. He got an easy month to adjust to things. ...But anyway, the watermelon.]

Hope you're hungry.

[maskreant]

Starving.

[ He opens the door for them to come in. Into the kitchen they go and he'll take out... hm. A butcher knife? ]

... I didn't know there are more firecracker pop crocodiles.

[ What? Akira is more than sure this is the only one he has seen. ]

[feistytrader]

...I don't know if there are more firecracker crocodiles, but there are definitely a bunch of different weird magic animals.

[The two of them stroll right into the kitchen; Totodile wants to see what's going on, so he tries climbing up various obstacles until Silver cuts out the middle man and holds him up to see.]

How's the life of realizing this stuff's not normal treating you, anyway?
