Hello Users, Please be advised that the temporal-spatial storm has now passed. Temporary access levels have been revoked. We apologize for the inconvenience. Please also be advised that as the storm has passed, work has resumed on certain other issues. You have my sincere thanks for your assistance. Thank you, Janet Halloway Human Resources Retrspec Incorporated As of this post, the city has completely returned to normal; damage has been fixed, monsters are gone, and NPCs now believe that monsters are definitely not normal but don't seem to remember them having been a thing. Oops? All weapons and powers gained in their various locations / as QR codes are now gone, additionally. Group 1 locations can no longer be accessed. Retrospec NPCs will not be reachable past this point! As mentioned to various members of group one, the Director does not approve of Retrospec's team speaking with its users, so NPC interaction will drop back down to what it originally was at this time. Doing research for these people will also net zero results. City-based NPCs will now remember members of group two! They will simply be under the belief that group two members were on vacation/had a family emergency/etc. No consequences will come from them being away at their jobs or school or anything else! Furthermore: -Horses are now regarded as valid mythological creatures! So you get mildly less strange looks for talking about them. -Photographs and text, online and off, now have the color blue again! -Visual video media (online, in theaters, etc) now has the color green once again! This does not include text yet. -There has been a new list of karaoke songs added to the city of Recollé! These songs can now be found in karaoke bars and machines all across the city and even can be sold on CDs for your own karaoke parties. -The Crow's Nest now has locations across the world, including a brand new location right in the heart of Recollé! After August's plot wraps up, be sure to grab a bite to eat and say hi to Kenny Crow. -Finally, the ocean has been restored! It's still gray, however. Keep working together to buy back world changes. 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.

Émilie Écarlate Janet, you have terrible taste in men.

Émilie Écarlate Now then. Speaking officially as a member of the Écarlate family, the Écarlate Foundation stands ready to render financial aid.

Émilie Écarlate Also my family think I've spent the month in France? What the hell? I need a drink.

[totallynotanoni]

Same here. Apparently everyone thinks I was off visiting my mother in San Francisco.

[There are a whole lot of things wrong with that cover story.]

Either way, I'm glad to see you've made it through all of this, Émillie.

[scarlet_devil]

I'll admit that I'd love to visit Paris again. It's been too long. It's where I was raised.

Mostly unhurt, I hope?

[totallynotanoni]

I came out...mostly okay. [Yeah, not directly admitting she's nearly died multiple times at the moment. Still trying to get over that fact.]

How have you been doing?

[scarlet_devil]

Despite everything thrown at us, I'm unhurt.

[totallynotanoni]

Good to hear your doing ok.

[scarlet_devil]

Let's hope all that doesn't happen again.

[totallynotanoni]

Yeah, I don't think I could get through another fiasco like that.

[Not without way more preparation.]

Still, its so weird that everyone without the app just thinks everything is normal and fine...well, unless their being chased by monsters, and even then its sort of an everyday thing to them.

[scarlet_devil]

If it does, I hope we can keep the things we gather, find or steal.

[totallynotanoni]

Lets just stick to never having to go through it again for the time being.

Although it was pretty interesting to get to use a sword. [The situations where she had to use it? Less interesting and more terrifying.]

[scarlet_devil]

Good point.

A cutlass is no rapier, but I used it well enough, I think.

[totallynotanoni]

Swords are definitely not my thing. [She grew up more accustomed to punching a problem in the face or gut rather than hacking and slashing at it.]

Where did you get sent?

[scarlet_devil]

First, to a damaged and sinking cruise ship, then into a submarine that was... there for some reason, then we ended up with gills and under the sea, dealing with a mafioso sea king. After that we ended up on a pirate ship - but no longer with gills, visited a skull shaped island, did the puzzles and beat up undead pirates before winding up back home.

[totallynotanoni]

My group was dropped in the middle of a jungle full of monsters. [She's so gonna be watching the shadows for awhile now.]

After that an unmanned jeep drove us to a jungle temple, where we had to reassemble some sort of scarab artifact. Then when we did that a beanstalk sprouted through the roof and took us to some mysterious castle where we had to find a king's crown and a bunch of weapons to enter the throne room, where we met the princess, who for some reason was a dragon, and rode her back here.

Its been a very long three weeks.

[scarlet_devil]

It was a long three weeks for all of us that got whisked away.

[totallynotanoni]

It really has. Has it ever been this bad before?

[scarlet_devil]

Never. Compared to all that everything that happened before seems so harmless. Like nothing more than annoyances.

[totallynotanoni]

Thats worrying.

[Its gonna get worse.]
