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.

You catch on quickly. That's good. It means that might not slow me down.

Did that previous time happen to be around the middle of last month?

[gamblingaddict]

Hehe, I appreciate the compliment, Kirigiri-san. ^u^

[It seems she either completely missed or is choosing to ignore the "slow me down" part.]

Ah! I believe it was! It was either on the 17th or 18th of August. I remember because I had only finished moving in a day or two before I noticed the app for the first time.

[falsepretentious]

[He's not sure which of them is the case, although he doesn't especially care.]

I see. Then, just as expected, the timing matches up. It seems that a number of us were given a 'trial run' of sorts around that time.

[gamblingaddict]

Why do you suppose we were picked though?

As I said, I'm rather new to the city, so I can't imagine why exactly they'd give someone like me this app. :/c

[falsepretentious]

Now that's a question that's beyond me. From the data I've been able to compile so far, it seems that the selection is completely random. With you and others, they've targeted people new to the city; and with myself and others, they've targeted people who have lived their whole lives in the city.

If there's a connection, I've yet to find one. Of course, that doesn't mean I'm not searching. For now, however, the evidence seems to select purely random selection.

[gamblingaddict]

Completely random, huh? Well, that's rather disappointing. :/c

You'd almost hope it was something more significant. Like something you might see in a movie -- a shared tragic event in our collective pasts for example.

[falsepretentious]

That may sound entertaining in a hypothetical sense,
but I tend to prefer my life to be tragedy-free.

And of course, this is all just based on what information we is currently available. It's still possible that there is some connection that remains to be discovered. But I wouldn't hold my breath about our lives becoming a poorly written movie.

[gamblingaddict]

Ah hah... of course. Please excuse my silly comment. (^～^;)ゞ

Well, if we're operating under the assumption that we've all been chosen at random, then I suppose what's important now is to figure out how we might best all work together. There seem to be a lot of us who possess this app, so I'm sure we can tackle any challenge that comes our way if we work as a team. o((*^▽^*))o

[falsepretentious]

It's excused. It wasn't so bad to bring it up to begin with. We have to examine every possibility before we disqualify them, and it also reminded me of several anime series that handled the trope well, but that is an unrelated matter.

I approve of the idea of figuring out how to best work together. Teamwork can be invaluable during times of strife! This may prove to be quite the opportunity to put my leadership skills to the test.

[gamblingaddict]

Oh! You're a fan of anime, too! I'd love to hear some of your recommendations sometime. o(〃＾▽＾〃)o

In that case, if there's anyway I can be of service team leader, just let me know!

[falsepretentious]

I happen to be a prominent member of Recolle University's official anime club. I can send you a list of recommendations at a later time, and of course anyone is welcome within the club's doors.

So, the time's come for me to be known as a team leader. I see! Know that I won't let you down.

[gamblingaddict]

Oh, wow! I did not even know the University had an anime club. Perhaps I will have to check it out sometime. (>u<)b

[She may or may not be 100% serious about that.]

I believe in you, leader! Fight-o! ･:*+.\(( °ω° ))/.:+

[falsepretentious]

It's a worthwhile club, give or take some foolish members with poor tastes in anime.

Thank you. I'll do my best!
