Welcome to Retrospec™, the last social media network you will ever need. You are one of the few selected to test this exciting new platform based on our cutting-edge algorithms. Less than two hundred invitations have gone out, and membership is not currently open to the public. However, we hope you will come to see how useful Retrospec™ is, given time. We have for your use a variety of features such as text, voice, video, and image posts. We encourage you to explore our many options.

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. As a reminder, everything besides uploading a profile picture and information was locked until this post. 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. Oddly, profile pictures still cannot be swapped out at this time, so hopefully you took a good one.

Well, my first concern is that I can't seem to change my name on here. Even a semi-public figure such as myself needs privacy every once in a while.

[Maybe it's because he's on the wrong app...?]

A mysterious application downloads itself onto a series of phones, having selected us through a method that implies extensive knowledge of our persons. Doesn't it sound like the beginning to a James Bond movie? This situation reeks of meddling.

[Oh, it's the nerdy girl who snuck up on her in the alley. The important distinction that Rachel didn't do quite that escapes her mind for a brief moment as she's already dancing around some mild paranoia.]

So what you're saying is, Daddy IS going to kill me.

You are true hero.
And to think we were this close to wrongfully accusing an innocent yeti.

Ugh, facebook. Don't remind me about that. I wasted a month of my life playing some farm thing there. But it really doesn't seem very secure, and very invasive, doesn't it?

I have the upmost faith you can complete whatever level you were on once more. Besides, isn't this far more compelling? A mysterious social media app already pinging notifications to you on your phone?

And sorry, weird scarves?


[They're gr8 scarves, okay. They're not weird at all.]

Precisely. They haven't left us any virtual breadcrumbs to peck after, either. No website, no terms of use, none of the usual legal jargon. A little anarchy is good every now and then, but given the circumstances of how we've acquired this app...
borntoolate: (waiting)

[personal profile] borntoolate 2017-02-01 05:51 am (UTC)(link)
Dunno.
Is that the sound yetis make?
We should ask the resident yeti expert.

Yes and no. I don't currently practice. I currently teach; if you're on campus at Recolle University, you may see me there, making sure certain students don't fall asleep in my class.

i thought everyone liked bono

[ Haha. Hahaha. ]

its the price of quality right?
or something like that...

[personal profile] momentaryspring 2017-02-01 05:52 am (UTC)(link)
Ryoga Hibiki AHA! Now that's the sort of children's story I'd EXPECT to find on an a suspicious networking site!

Ryoga Hibiki I hope you don't mean to imply that the coming festivities will be similarly ghoulish.
onceandfuturemascot: (wait what?)

[personal profile] onceandfuturemascot 2017-02-01 05:52 am (UTC)(link)
I'm pretty sure that this is telling everyone those things anyway
Maybe not location
Its kind of a problem
At least facebook tells you before it plasters all of your personal information in front of god and everybody
erythristic: (portrait.)

[personal profile] erythristic 2017-02-01 05:52 am (UTC)(link)
absolutely not. i already moved to back up my contacts when this thing wouldn't remove itself.

but does it do much harm to observe?
longwei2go: (these eyes don't lie)

[personal profile] longwei2go 2017-02-01 05:52 am (UTC)(link)
nothing wrong with either option
momentaryspring: (Ryoga: glare)

[personal profile] momentaryspring 2017-02-01 05:53 am (UTC)(link)
Ryoga Hibiki It would be hard NOT to notice something like that!

[personal profile] metafaliure 2017-02-01 05:53 am (UTC)(link)
Well, I meant, you know, of our free will. Everyone here just got an auto-download from what I can tell.

Quick to enjoy the splendors of our new "app", I see.

To answer your inquiry, I believe cats make a better companion, preferably black cats.

Yeah. I just noticed it's not changeable either.

[But is it worth pitching a fit over? nah.]
