retrospec | 01 | the answers agency presents...

Elizabeth Velveteen and Goro Akechi of the newly-formed The Answers Agency would like to announce that, after multiple days of investigation, we have found that a member of Retrospec's userbase is actually an incredibly kind person.

Silver Bells, known on the app as Gintaro Suzukaze, has done wonderful things such as:

* sprayed water on people on a very hot day
* helped newcomers adjust to retrospec
* had his nails painted a bright assortment of colors that was sure to clash with his hair to help out with someone’s bingo square
* promo’d his brother for bingo and because he obviously loves him
* rescues cats from trees on a biweekly basis
* befriends friendless losers
* lends his aid without asking for anything in return

(citation for at least two of these)

We thank you for reading and ask that you spread the good word about Silver, and perhaps share stories of your own of his kindness!

also, i (The Answers Agency president, Elizabeth) will be holding a show everyone is free to come to in Recollé Square on the 15th, at 5pm. you’ll have to bring your own snacks, but other refreshments will be provided.
additionally, those with a serious interest in becoming a detective or making their way in the investigative world should contact either myself or Akechi for more information about The Answers Agency!
we will also take cases, big or small, missing pets or stolen items, so feel free to contact about that as well.

[ ooc: replies will come from both Elizabeth and Goro (

twostringsonebow)! ...and Silver, probably, damage control at its finest. ]

kris kringle isn't real.

you can tell he isn't because i didn't even capitalize his name.

im p sure thats not how it works

well...
this is my post, so that's how it works.

thats not the point!

[ That's REALLY not how that works. ]

do you believe in santa claus as well?
or are you just deciding to fight for the rights of those to believe in him?

im fighting 4 the right to determine reality
which is not something we get 2 do!
and it shouldnt b subjective at all tbh but then retrospec came along and screwed all that up
but thats besides the point

but santa claus isn't
do you suppose Retrospec could determine whether he is or is not though?
what would they replace him with?
Jim in a nightgown?
terrifying.

He lives in the hearts of the youthful, Miss Velveteen.

do you believe in santa claus, Akechi?

whose name i also did not capitalize, thus invalidating his realness.

oh, this reminds me.
is it bad form to reply to one's own comments?
or is that acceptable if you don't want to spam someone.

Don't ruin his dreams. He's probably still hoping he won't get coal this year.

you'd think coal would've been a good thing back in the day.
it is, after all, a good way to stay warm.

With all due respect Elizabeth, I'm saying that Goro's a mean dumb jerk.

You realize that if he were real, he'd have to be tried in court for breaking and entering.
I'd like for him to exist, because that's a wonderful concept cruelly taken advantage of by our capitalistic society, but unfortunately such a thing cannot. The government would have too much use for an old elf like him.

This is exactly why you get coal.

miss velveteen.

oh no.
my realness is also at stake here.
please capitalize my name at once.

Only if you capitalize Santa Claus as you properly should.
