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. Please note that NPCs will not remember any of the members of Group 2 as having existed for the duration of this plot. Obviously this isn't a big deal, probably. Only members from Groups 1 and 3 may respond to this post. Set immediately post-this log, all characters will realize it is August 3rd! Groups 1 and 3 will notice that members of Group 2 are missing even if the NPCs are clueless as usual. The NPCs continue to think monsters are a normal thing as monsters continue to be a part of everyday life, although the monsters are now decidedly less holographic (despite their dissipation continuing to be a thing) and more hostile.

I just checked

he's not there, and his mom doesn't remember him

something must have happened to him and the other missing people

[frostythehitman]

wait

His mom doesn't remember him? What, like she just forgot she had a son all of a sudden?

[complementing]

that's exactly it...

[frostythehitman]

That's

But he has to be around somewhere.

No one just forgets about their kids.

[complementing]

I'm chalking it up to Retrospec

as much as Mrs. Mochizuki loves him she's still a normal citizen and probably affected by induced ignorance

as for where he is, yeah, I'm really hoping he's somewhere close to the city still

I'm going to be looking for him and the other missing people soon

[frostythehitman]

[ He's not going to say it because he knows it's not going to be productive, but the comparison Minako makes between the induced ignorance of Ryoji's disappearance and anything else app-related is troublesome. Horses still aren't a thing--fruits still have faces--colors are still mostly missing--and if Minako is right, then Ryoji will stay that way too. ]

Where?

[complementing]

the app sent me a map

it's sending me back to those godforsaken woods

[frostythehitman]

wait

You got a map for the woods?

I got one pointing to the Retrospec building.

[complementing]

the Retrospec building???

I can go into the woods no problem but the Retrospec building hasn't let anyone in for a while, hasn't it?

it kind of sounds like a trap...

[frostythehitman]

Damn, you're right.

But it's better than nothing.

Besides, the woods could be a trap too. Why else would they send you a map with that marked out?

[complementing]

I think some of us are hoping it'll be a clue to where the missing people are

or LEAD to a clue about where they are

but it does seem to lead pretty deep into the woods so I can't deny it might be dangerous

[frostythehitman]

We're all basically entering enemy turf if we go to these map locations anyway. Any way you look at it, we're at a disadvantage.

But I'll take that risk if it helps us figure out what the hell's going on and how to get back all the missing people.

[complementing]

yeah...I want to find them as soon as we can, whatever it takes

after all these monsters, the sooner they're back, the better
