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?

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.

Casper is gross looking

Don't be like Casper

It'd be hard for me to look like that.
A bedsheet ghost is always a cute option.
Especially for little kids.

sheet ghosts are pretty cute, I'll give you that

Not the most creative but very endearing

I like them. Especially for kids who can't make a more complicated outfit.

Oh, right.
Trick or treat?

lol, treat!!

You're a very cute, kind boy so you get lots of treats

Thank you.
...
Isn't this the first time we've talked?

yyyyeah? So?

I'm glad you have such a good first impression of me.

awww you're cute ☺️

You seem very nice and i bet you're a dependable friend too!

[At least she can't tell he's getting flustered over text.]

I'm doing my best to be. I care a lot about my friends and I try to be available for them.

WHAT A SWEET PERSON

I really like you I'm glad I met you and I hope we can be good friends ☺️

I'd like that too.
Do you go to high school?

mhm! I'm a senior!

I am too.
I guess we haven't seen each other around much.

probably because I'm in the classes for dumb kids hahahaha

If you've heard rumors about a girl that got punchrf by a guy, that was me

??? somebody punched you?
why?

it's a long story, but everything is okay now, so it doesn't really matter anymore!

I've been laying low since then, is all. Lots of people at school gossiping about me, and about what happened, I think

If you say so...
Still, gossip can be annoying.

yeah, tell me about it 😞

At least there are nice boys like you!!

I'm sure there are more nice boys at school.

there's like....4 or 5, maybe? You, Izuku, Naoto....Daisuke is kinda nice, i think...

Izuku is definitely nice.
Mao is nice. And responsible.
I think he's on student council.

i dont think I've met mao?

Oh! Eijun and kuramochi are both very kind as well!

So, 6 + your friend mao

Cutter's nice too, but he hasn't been at school lately.
Stuff came up for him.

oh! The manly guy! Yeah, I've met him!
