TEXT ♞ INFO SHARING

[tarotcards]

Hey everyone, Souji (in blue) and Dave (in red) here. I know that some of us don't want to remember the events of last month, especially not so soon, but it's important for us to share what we found or did while it's still fresh in our minds. So, this is a general discussion post for everything that happened in August.

to that end theres gonna be an in person meeting later on possibly with refreshments
were not above bribery here even if i am personally above fancy capital letters
but info that maybe shouldnt wait for then is that team space jam found a dead dude who had a thing that said according to a sphinx
the recolle project is a thing that is like reconstruction rather than reincarnation bringing back stuff thats ours

Essentially, the Recollé Project outlines this stuff as memories, items, and abilities. Rather than regaining things from a past life like reincarnation as Dave said, it's more like regaining things that were buried - to bring them forth to us.

There wasn't much else in the report asides from a map of the city, but the sphinx (it’s a long story but it appeared to have knowledge about the project) confirmed that this was true.

so anyway bring yourselves and possibly snacks to the sandiego foundation on saturday
we will try to make sure at least one person from every team from last months little whatever is around
newbies and oldbies should both come to revel in the glory of information
and like seasonally themed snacks maybe we will have pumpkin pie because i want some
last but not least and speaking of newbies theres one more thing to go over here

It's clear that Retrospec is going to continue adding new users to their app so Dave and I thought it was best that we created a guide to Retrospec for all the future newcomers (and old users too). We're going to type something up really soon but we wanted to ask what you'd like to see in the guide. Frequently asked questions answered, what we know so far about the Retrospec team, how to change your font into a really cool colour like ours, stuff like that.

nearly as cool anyway
you have to do some serious training and animal spirit sensing to get a color as cool as this
but yeah talk at you all later
or like soonish when you reply

( ooc: this is an ic discussion and info gathering post that is open to everyone, so feel free to jump into other threads and whatnot! this takes place alongside the in-person ic info gathering post which can be found here )

And apparently, if they told us too much, we would die.

[So there's that.]

[covenantal]

... that's kind of extreme.

[daemonized]

Very much so.

But we have been complaining about them being unwilling to answer our questions thus far. Perhaps this is a very prominent reason why.

How are you doing, Yu?

[That is the real reason why he's commented.]

[covenantal]

I find that hard to believe... but I can't deny it's possible. Who said this to you?

I'm alright, uncle. Really.

[daemonized]

Doctor Mahoney herself. As to be expected, I asked questions that were pertaining not just to the issue at hand, but generalities concerning what Retrospec had done to the city. As I expect many people would wish to.

I asked why she would not be able to answer all the questions I might've had for her, and she responded (and I quote), "It's like with access levels. If you want to die, of course I'll tell you whatever you like."

[covenantal]

... right. I don't doubt she was serious, but I can't help but wonder what that means. Why exactly would it kill us? Is it that they'd have to silence us so we couldn't spread the knowledge, or is it really that the knowledge itself would kill us?

[daemonized]

I somehow am inclined to believe the latter. If we are to believe that they're even being slightly helpful towards us -- "Reconstruction" notwithstanding -- then it would make little sense to dangling information just beyond our reach, and then threaten us with death if we should grasp at it.

Though one does wonder how knowledge would be the end of us.
