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.

You aren't tracking us but by the way here's an example of us completely tracking you.

Your argument seems thin.

Plus there was the whole 'pictures of you from behind when you're alone' thing you were doing last month.
Which was horribly intrusive and obviously tracking us.

It's all such bloody bullshit.

Now if you're giving colors back give me back my eyes!

i think mostly theyre saying they can track us w/out our phones
why he felt the need to point this out is beyond me but
its pretty clear they dont need anything to stalk us
which is creepy as shit but w/e

...That's...Well.

Rather worse, really.

Though it does offer the question of how they are doing it.
If not electronically.

my vote is on witchcraft

There's no such thing as witchcraft Dave.
It's just science we don't-

Lord that's starting to sound hollow even to me.

i know but its kind of comforting when you argue about whether or not magic is real

As long as someone feels better.

...

It's not magic though, there's really no such thing.

i think there might have been in other universes

Maybe.
But it could simply be misunderstood science there too.

like i said
i find your science thing comforting

I'm glad I can help.
Really, as odd as that sounds.

When I tried the science about the colors a couple people got mad at me for scaring them worse?

how did it scare them worse?

I was saying it made more sense for it to be some kind of change to our eyes than to the actual laws of the universe.
And that we could figure it out then because we can study ourselves for changes right?

They seemed to think someone messing with them was more terrifying than someone changing the way light works.

i mean i guess everyone finds different things to be scarier or not you know
to each their own

Yeah.
But it did make me feel like maybe I shouldn't have.
I was trying to make people feel better.

Excuse me. 'Pictures of you from behind when you're alone'?

[He's only just arrived in the city within the month. Tell him more :|]

It's just what I said.
We'd get pictures sent to our phones of us.
Except from behind.
When we were alone.

And only when you were alone?

Were there any messages with the photos?

[His bodyguard senses are tingling and telling him that this is Not Good]

Edited (oops repetition) 2017-07-17 12:10 (UTC)

Yes.
I was in my bedroom when it happened.

And no, just pictures.

[Photographed in your bedroom, that's even worse than being photographed in public.]

That's... Unsettling. To say the least.

Imagine how it felt at the time.
I think it's the worst thing they've done to us, honestly.
And I'm including the whole shrinking thing.

The shrinking thing. Dare I even ask?

We were all six inches tall for a week.

[Faolan is still getting used to the idea of... All of this, really. The memories, the powers, the whole thing. So the idea of the whole city shrinking is...]

Six inches... How? And why?

Those are very good questions.

...

I bet the answers are fantastic.
