[recollecters]

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.

It wouldn't be the first time people shared in a similar thought or consciousness.

The human mind is quite subjective to various thoughts and truths.

[daemonized]

But pixels on a screen are not. Though if this is some mass hallucination, I find it a particularly amusing one, don't you?

[glacian]

I find literature to be more amusing.

[daemonized]

[Come on, Gentiana. Budge a little, here.]

Are you saying my messages to you aren't the equivalent of literary genius? You'll hurt my feelings.

[glacian]

Your pride shall heal.

[There. She budged.]

[daemonized]

[If that's what you call budging, Gentiana....]

No, it won't. I think it's dying a sad, pathetic sort of death right now. You should feel terrible.

[glacian]

Should? I do believe you mean 'could'. I could feel something akin to remorse if I willed it.

[daemonized]

No, I meant what I meant. You should. There's an obligation to feel bad when you do something terrible and unforgivable to another human being.

[glacian]

You're being dramatic. The illustrious tongue of a thespian is less amusing in text.

[daemonized]

[lord his pride, may it not crumble in the face of her words]

Would you prefer audio, then?

[glacian]

If you must.

[One can just feel how horribly uninterested she is with him.]

[daemonized]

No need to twist my arm.

[And hey, a change to audio.]

Now then, what's this about being a thespian? I'm in law, not theatre.

[glacian]

[A quiet sigh passes through her lips once she hears his voice. She had hoped he would give up in pestering her but alas.]

Lawyers require a silver tongue too.

[daemonized]

[Don't you sigh at him! They've only just started speaking.]

Some would say they require a forked one. Regardless, where were we?

Ah, right. You were feeling terrible for treating me so coldly, weren't you?

[glacian]

A forked one? Are you admitting to have scales under your questionable hat?

[Despite how hard she tries not to sound amused, Gentiana is most certainly humored by this overzealous lawyer.]

Not in the slightest.

[daemonized]

[The hat again. Why. She's the second one to mention it.]

Why, I admit to nothing. Especially that my hat is questionable, because it certainly is not.

[glacian]

The hat is always in question when it doesn't match the rest of your sprightly attire.

[There's the odd sound of something being poured into a glass. Gentiana is making tea.]

I take it you're enjoying yourself today.

[daemonized]

The hat is utilitarian as much as it is fashionable. It keeps the sun out of my eyes.

[A hum of consideration.] What's not to enjoy? The fact that my phone is going to spend the latter part of today buzzing with notifications until the battery dies is absolutely thrilling.

[glacian]

Ah, so it has some use other than being juxtaposed against your more stately attire.

[Did she just make a joke? The world may never know.]

Sincerely hope that won't be the case. I believe you may have need of your phone once people try to sue Retrospec.

[daemonized]

[He's calling her out on it if it is! Just in case.] Now, was that an attempt at a fleeting joke? It's dreadfully difficult to tell with you, Gentiana.

You're right, I will. If only to see the drama that ensues from it. You forget that I don't practice law so much as teach it, these days.

[glacian]

You teach? Ah, that explains your presence there.

[The frigid woman never really thought about it until now.]

Even I can see some humor in all this.

[daemonized]

Surely you didn't think that I wandered around campus [like some hobo] just because it pleased me?

[glacian]

We are known to have a few strays prowling about on campus.

[She sips her tea quietly.]

[daemonized]

I am anything but a stray. Recolle U is practically my second home at this rate.
