hey, for the record we aren't keeping records on you through your electronics. they're useful tools sometimes but they're not required. mr. halloway wanted you (the people meeting at the utsuki dojos at 8pm on sundays) to know it's a nice effort but he still doesn't see any secret codes or handshakes so the meetings aren't spy-level enough to keep him happy yet. also he made me take notes on all of them. i don't really care about how spy-level they are, though.

also the technicians managed to fix some things.

As of this post, the following changes have been made to the world:

• Normal limes are available alongside the dancing variety.
• Horse-related items such as horseshoes, bridles, and feeding bags. These items will still be regarded as unusual or fake by NPCs but will be available in various locations.
• Visual media regains the color blue. This applies to all forms of film whether watching on-screen, online, or reviewing videos PCs recorded prior to the loss of color. Please note this is only videos, not pictures.

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.

Why are the apples still smiling and dancing.
Why couldn't they have been the one that got fixed.
I have serious issues with your company's priorities, please tell upper management that they need to fix them.

+1 to bring back apples

I don't see how they looked at limes and went "yes this is exactly what our reality needs fixed". Who even uses limes.

literally no one
they threw us chump change

It is a genuine pity they probably don't see our "concerned feedback" to them.
I feel like writing a sternly worded email anyway, just to blow off steam.

You're not fond of limes, Mr. Akechi?

Unlike a certain someone (Silver Bells, also known as Gintaro Suzukaze) I don't make a habit of eating them.
I'm thankful there's one less dancing fruit in this world, but I wish it had been something I used to enjoy for lunch.

Agreed. However, you might want to look at it this way: now you have a non-dancing chaser to utilize when you turn to tequila in your frustration with this app.

That does sound very kind, yes.
I'll remember to thank them if I ever turn to underaged drinking. I hope I don't, of course, but the option is nice.

my personal theory is is that they're doing it in order of popularity.
1. apples
2. lemons
3. oranges
4. limes

limes were least popular, so they were restored to their natural state first. apples will likely be the last.

Miss Velveteen, while you are most likely correct, I dislike your theory immensely.

i'm not surprise.
also, consider: once this round of fruit is over, there's nothing stopping them from doing the same to other fruit.

like so

Please do not give them ideas.

+1 nobody gives a shit about limes apples are WAY MORE IMPORTANT

Thank you. I know it won't do anything, but I kind of want to start a petition to return them to us anyway.

itd be satisfying anyway
LOOK HOW MANY SIGNATURES WE GOT (you giant corporation that doesnt care)

are you too afraid to eat them still
is it because they do a little dance on the way down

They are disturbing. I don't see how anyone in their right minds manages it.

peel first probably

I'd appreciate it if apples could turn back to normal, yes.
Upper management probably doesn't give a damn about any of this.

Upper management is probably having the time of their lives. It really does feel like some sort of twisted social experiment.

They're probably popcorning everything.
Maybe, but with the memories, it feels like there's more to it. They must have ulterior motives.

i agree about the priorities
but also i care more about color than the fruits

like thats nice that limes are normal again but i think there are better things to worry about

You are absolutely, positively right, and I would agree whole-heartedly if I wasn't suffering from apple withdrawal.
I do want colors back though, it's odd not to see them around... And I feel sorry for anyone with blue and green eyes, though welcome to the land of the non-celebrated colors.

[who cares about brown??? people with brown eyes. romanticize him dammit.]

i have blue eyes
or i did :P

i feel like the colors thing is whats affecting people the most
or affecting the most amount of people anyway
so I guess I think thats the thing to worry about the most???
not that the apples arent important
