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

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.

Your cat is far out of my league, Akira, we both know that.

[Still. Does he tell. They don't even have a sleepover going and he's being grilled about the kind of person he wants to hold hands with, he's chuckling a bit.]

That depends on the reason. Are you simply curious, hoping to hook me up with someone, or do you have a personal interest in knowing?

True.

[ This is definitely not grilling!! Just some little nudges, okay? Also, this is their version of a sleepover. ]

Who knows? Though as your "Plan B," I think I should be in the loop of things.

You're so nosy.

[Sheesh.]

... Someone with a nice smile. They have to be kind too, even if appearances say otherwise, and yes, someone I don't mind spending time with. Witty, charming, fun to be around, someone who can take what they dish out... Liking animals is a must, and I think I'd like it if they had a pet of their own already actually.

Oh, and they need to be financially secure, of course. It's an important trait to have these days.

I learned from the best.

[ This all kind of sounds familiar, but he personally can't tie some of those traits to himself. That last part does pull a squint out of him as he parses this checklist.

It's so tempting to pull a gold digger card right now. ]

They sound like a great person—I'm sure they're out there waiting for you.

[Things left off on that list: Looks good in glasses, likes puns, makes a mean cup of coffee.]

Of course. But until then, I'll be content with "Plan B". [-- Wait.] People who aren't those standards exactly, I mean.

[He's rather thankful they're not face to face at the moment, but he regrets calling Akira in the first place.]

[ SMOOTH, GORO. Yes. Akira, too, will be content with being Plan B. He can't see himself as anything else other than a back-up plan, anyway. Smiling a bit, it doesn't stop him from enjoying the conversation. ]

Give me a heads up when you find them. I would like some prep time so I can give you away properly.

[ Like a good father— ]

Also to warn them about your bad habits.

[He has to muffle his startled laughter, even if his mom sleeps like the dead, and clears his throat softly, grinning.]

I like you much more than I do my dad, [not that that's hard you just have to be Around,] but you are not in charge of that. And just what do you mean by bad habits?

[ Well, Akira feels good about getting a natural laugh out of him. This call ended up being worth it. ]

Let's see. [ Thoughtful and unnecessary hum. ] You seduce your way to free pancakes.

I'll shoulder responsibility in the place of your father, then. If it makes it easier, you can even call me daddy.

[ Maybe you should hang up? ]

Goodnight, Kurusu.

[Absolutely exasperated, oh my god, why are you the way you are, he's hanging up.

... He is not going to forget that Akira called him seductive, he's going to bring it up at some point.]
