yo. looks like there's still some residual effects coming up, but they should be pretty harmless since the kid was in charge of redistribution. she says it should be "cool". just don't do some damn idiot thing about them and you should be fine. this is absolutely not in my job description but the intern's busy and half of r&d is still banned and hr is on honeymoon. so you'll just have to deal with the lack of fancy bullshit. anyway. good luck or whatever.

Ah, my apologies for the confusion. I'm very new to all this. I only just discovered this Retrospec app on my phone a few days ago. Oddly enough though, there were actually a few days where I completely forgot about it. I sort of re-noticed it again today and finally decided to give it a try.

[truedetective]

Ah. You must be one of the newly awakened, then.
Congratulations on your newfound awareness, and also my condolences.

[gamblingaddict]

Hehe, yes, that seems to be the common sentiment going around. A welcome and an apology.

Honestly, short of being chased by monsters a few weeks ago, this hasn't been so bad. Though, I'm certain that's purely my inexperience talking.

[truedetective]

Well, the monsters have been some of the most actively worst of it.
The rest is just making you doubt your memory and your perception of the world around you.
But at least it isn't trying to kill you.

[gamblingaddict]

Those are such terrifying topics to be discussing, yet everyone sounds so blasé about it.

Has this Retrospec app really caused so much trouble? :(

[truedetective]

The app? No. The app itself is benign as far as we can tell.
The company running it, or whoever is controlling the strange events in this world?
Less so.

[gamblingaddict]

I see... but then, if they're the ones responsible for all the oddities that have been happening, why give us the app? Do they want us to be able to communicate and work together to stop these strange events? Or is it something more simple? For monitoring purposes for example.

[truedetective]

Excellent questions which I do not have the answer for.
At first I thought it was some sort of monitoring device.
Now, I'm not sure.

[gamblingaddict]

Ah, my apologies then. I imagine everyone who joins Retrospec must ask the same questions. I can imagine it gets frustrating after a while. (^～^;)ゞ

[truedetective]

We really should write a FAQ document, to be honest.
It would save everyone time.

[gamblingaddict]

That would be very helpful, yes. (>u<;)

Though, I'm guessing it would take quite some time to compile. There seems to be a lot to learn.

[truedetective]

More than I can keep track of. And I've been doing this since virtually the beginning. And am very good at keeping track of things.

[gamblingaddict]

Really? Since the beginning?! How many of you were there at the start? (O.O)

[truedetective]

Several dozen of us, at least. I was not in the very first cohort to awaken to Retrospec. But I was in the second the following month.

[gamblingaddict]

I see. So new arrivals tend to follow a monthly pattern then?

[truedetective]

With the exception of my second cohort, it's very other, as near as I can tell. It's fairly regular.
