Hi, everyone! There's a fairly high level anomaly coming up which we did our best to damp down, but please be careful! It should be safe as long as you're cautious and don't take any unnecessary risks. Also, R&D gave us more of those poll results (I'm not sure why we're doing this by poll? I'd rather just spend all our resources on blue) so we fixed a few things! Also also, Maurice and I programmed a really fun game!! You don't have to play if you don't want to but Halloween is my absolute favorite holiday sooooooo! Please take care and try to stay safe, okay? Joanne Wiseman Technician 2nd class Retrspec Incorporated As of this post characters will find their application decked out in cheerful Halloween colors, and their userpics in a randomized (work safe) costume. Since this is Joanne's work, however, there is a very visible and easy option to turn off Halloween Mode if characters would prefer to use the usual application. She's helpful like that. The biggest feature of Halloween Mode is the Trick or Treat function. When speaking to others, users who are asked "Trick or treat?" will have the option to give a treat. If they do, a virtual candy will be gifted to the other user. If they do not, the user who asked the question will have the option to play a "trick". Tricks are fairly harmless and include: vandalizing a userpic with animal ears or noses, choosing a new color/design scheme for the other user's application, making the other user play a round of a cutesy halloween maze game to get back on the application, playing a song of the user's choice at the nefarious non-candy-giver, or similar very easy things. None of these effects last over ten minutes. This is one of the methods to earn a freebie memory for the month. You must have 5 threads with at least 5 comments each (25 comments total) playing the trick or treat game! This can be done on this post or in inboxes or wherever there is a network. Also as of this post: -Normal oranges exist alongside the dancing variety! -For the color BLUE: Media as a whole and NPCs begin using the names for the color again. Songs and books regain the ability to say the words appropriately, and NPCs acknowledge the color as real. -For the color GREEN: Photographs begin to regain this color. Text of this color also becomes visible again in books and online. 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. 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.

Another vague warning of events to come (which is nothing out of the ordinary where these posts are concerned) but I do appreciate how very enthusiastic and helpful she is.

[At this point it's difficult to even be surprised by it any longer.]

In any case... I know several of you out there want to ask me a question.

[Offering himself up for trick or treating, you know you want to.]

[destiny_key]

trick or treat!!!

[daemonized]

[Here we go, THIS IS THE POINT OF THIS POST RIGHT]

Now then, which should I choose? I suppose I'll be nice and gift you with a treat.

[Let's see that nice little candy gifting animation, because there it goes!]

[destiny_key]

yay!!!
thanks for the treat!!!

but also lol would you really let me play a trick on you???

[playdolls]

💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩

[daemonized]

That's not how this works, Pitou.

Trick or treat?

[playdolls]

Trick.

[ Like fuck they giving you candy. ]

[originallutece]

Do I need to prepare myself for you dressing up?

[That was the question, clearly.]

[daemonized]

What, shall I warn you before I do?

[Clearly.]

[originallutece]

Please do. I don't want to come by your office for coffee and see a vampire or a chocobo or whatever it is you might regard as highly amusing.

[Did I mention her profile picture is her with cat ears? Yeah.]

[covenantal]

Trick or treat, uncle? °˖✧◝(⁰▿⁰)◜✧˖°

[daemonized]

Anything for my favorite nephew.

[A running joke. He says that to both of the twins, all the time.]

Are you dressing up this year?

[Aaaand here comes the candy animation! How colorful!]

[covenantal]

I'd like to. I guess it'll depend on the anomaly Miss Wiseman's warned us about.

[ Well, Ardyn is going to get a treat in return! As if he'd trick his own favorite uncle.

(He totally would actually.) ]

[buncho]

yes,question!!!!!! will you play trick or treat with terra?

[daemonized]

Playing spokesperson for your friend?

[blackwaterchild]

Trick or treat, professor?

[SURE FINE SHE'LL PLAY ALONG for now. or something.]

[daemonized]

[BE MORE EXCITED?]

Getting into the holiday spirit? I hope so, given how difficult it is to miss on the app.

[But! He sends her a "treat", which basically shows as an eruption of Halloween candy animation on her phone.]

[toobigtohandle]

I'm sorry, Professor. Jirou made me do it.

Trick or treat.

[daemonized]

Starting off with an apology? There's certainly no need for it. Why are you being forced, when you could happily, willingly participate?

[He'll respond with treat in a minute...]

[twelfthspark]

Sure do.

Should we be expecting dumb candy-corn and ghost-print scarves this month?

[daemonized]

Naturally.

[That's easy enough to answer.]

[evidentiary]

Attitude does go rather a long way, doesn't it?

And so as not to shirk expectations...Trick or treat.

[daemonized]

It's all about attitude, or so they say.

Now, now. Don't feel /obligated/ to ask. Only if you're feeling in the holiday mood!

[But he sends her virtual candy anyway, because it's Ardyn.]

[parodeity]

are you still really into that hat

[daemonized]

The hat and I remain steadfast friends. Does that disappoint you?
