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 Temporary access levels have been revoked.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.

Reality is simulated, I believe. We're inside a giant computer simulation.

[Oh, when it's put that way, even Ragna can understand it. A simulation of reality, huh.

... Wait, what.]

WHAT THE FUCK
are you trying to tell me our lives are a goddamn lie or some shit???

[truedetective]

I believe the "hallucinomemories" we've been having are our true lives.
They're our real selves.
This existence... I'm not sure about, but I think that if we are in a simulation, we're based on real people.

[rebellions]

that's
jfc
i wanna say impossible but fucking hell
is anything even impossible anymore

[truedetective]

You should have started asking yourself that when we were all shrunk to a fraction of our size.
Reality has been cracking for months now.

look
there's a difference between "weird magical shit happens every so often"
and "by the way your entire fucking life is a lie have fun with that"

[truedetective]

"Weird magical shit" is a nice way to say "reality has been completely malleable and unstable."
Look, I've been trying to think of alternative explanations. None fit all of the facts so cleanly.

[rebellions]

...okay so
let's assume all of that is true
what do we do about it?
