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.

Oh, is this what this is for? I was wondering why it started installing itself the other day, but now I know. So, I guess that this is a chance for us to meet new people here in town?

Hi, I'm Chloe. It's nice to meet you all, if I haven't already. Are any of you making plans for Founder's Day?

[In reality, she was seriously weirded out by the app having installed onto her phone. But, she wasn't sure about trying to talk to the people who'd put it there. After all, it didn't seem to want to uninstall. Well, she might as well meet some new people.]

[twelfthspark]

Yup. You're part of an exclusive club now~

Except they just let anybody in. 😒 I mean did you see that guy trying to use it to google spy porn or something?? Gag.

[true_noir]

Do you mean the fellow talking about yetis? He's a little strange, yes. But it seems all quite random. I think I might have met only one of the people on this server.

So, I suppose the question is what kind of club is this?

[twelfthspark]

A pretty sad one so far.

[true_noir]

One or two of them aren't so bad. But some of them are very strange. They seem to mostly be very confused and upset. Apparently it's really not possible to remove this.

I'm not sure how to feel about this. Why did they choose us?

[twelfthspark]

Coin flip? Signed on to wifi at the wrong starbucks? Just looked like suckers? idk.

[true_noir]

Well, you're certainly trying not to sound like a sucker, so probably not that. Maybe it was random, though they certainly got a lot of information on us. Oh well, none of this is going to change anything.

Let's talk about something more interesting. Founders' Day plans?

[Seriously, she'd hit saturation point on conspiracy, and decided she'd just change her passwords on her financial accounts and go from there. No point worrying about this more. She had mace in her purse if it came down to it.]

[twelfthspark]

Only *trying*? You wound me. 😢

I managed to escape from coffee hell for the day, so I'm hitting Tisse. ☆

[true_noir]

I once heard an expression that I think applies? Show me the money? Yes, yes, I think that fits. Prove you're not a sucker, and I'll believe it.

Coffee Hell? Tisse? What are these places?

[She needed to get out more, damnit.]

[twelfthspark]

Coffee hell, aka "work". And Tisse is the cool part of town, are you new here or something?

[true_noir]

I get out some, but not as much as I'd like. If you know any nightclubs you'd suggest, I'm all ears. I've been far too focused on saving up money for college lately. I will admit that I've gotten a little claustrophobic.

name from a Sims lot I downloaded once, springy floor from Portland. :|b

[twelfthspark]

Ever been to the Code Block? It has this fantastic dance floor. Get enough people on it and it bounces.

[mercurio]

hey chloe! i'm prompto
i'm really looking forward to all the food and the horses~

Re: Text

[true_noir]

It's nice to meet you, Prompto. Is this going to be your first Founders' Day? Oh yes, there's supposed to be rides, aren't there? I'm definitely looking forward to that. I haven't seen a horse in a very long time, have you?

Re: Text

[mercurio]

nah i've been to many before since i was a kid. is it your first though?? you'll have a blast!
i volunteer a the animal shelter so sometimes i get to help out when we get horses without homes and stuff

Re: Text

[true_noir]

No, not my first. I've been here for a couple years now, so I'm looking forward to it. It's one of my favorite festivals, now. I love all of the events that come along with it, even that silly ball of string.

Re: Text

[mercurio]

oh man one time i got trapped in the ball of string and i was there for HOURS i didn't know if i would ever escape...
i prefer to stay away from that one since

Re: Text

[true_noir]

How could you possibly get trapped in a ball of string like that? I would think that would take a lot of work to accomplish, somehow.

Re: Text

[mercurio]

Prompto Argentum it's a long traumatic story that may include a prank pulled on me

Re: Text

[true_noir]

Ok, I can believe the traumatic and prank parts. It's the only reason that the story would make any sense. I take it you have very troublesome friends?

Re: Text

[mercurio]

they're not troublesome! they're more like...intense, but at the end of the day it's always fun with them

Re: Text

[true_noir]

Did you have fun in the end with the big ball of string? I wouldn't think that would be fun, no matter what.

Re: Text

[mercurio]

( overflow )

[wordcarvings]

I wish I could make any plans but I don't know if I'll be done with my current work or not so I'll just have to hope I'll catch bits of it and maybe run into my friends while I'm there.
