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.

i tried tying a string to it on my bag but it ended up getting cut despite how it was inside the pocket of my bag...?

[admiringly]

i
i don't know what to say to this
maybe you should ask your neighbor to teach you how to pick locks

[sketchythief]

i thought about it but my housemate gets dibs first

and she's really busy... i can wait for my turn

[admiringly]

oh if she's that busy it wouldn't be good to bother her...
maybe you can try yourself?
if the you in your memories knew how then you can probably remember how to do it too?
i know some people have talked about remembering how to fight like that
i don't know if it works that way for everyone though? or for every skill?

[sketchythief]

i thought i could do that but the only thing i remember is opening an electronic locks without a device

i cant really wrap my head around how that works....

[admiringly]

daisuke omg
are you magic??

[sketchythief]

i dont think so...?

that lockpicking didnt use magic either so im really confused

1/2

[admiringly]

but if you can open any lock without a device isn't that magic?
what else could it be?
unless you had like a hacker partner you didn't know about?

[admiringly]

wait
why were you even picking an electronic lock in the first place
daisuke were you a criminal in your past life???

[sketchythief]

[ rip daisuke ]

there was no help or anything... the other me just did everything by hand

from what i remember, i forgot to bring the right card key to a storage room...? it was a school! and someone else needed to get in, so i opened it for them like that

... this makes no sense whatsoever but i swear thats what happened

[admiringly]

well that kind of sounds like you because you're helping someone out
but i believe you even if it doesn't make sense!
weirder things can happen

i hope other you only used his lockpicking skills for good

[sketchythief]

thanks for believing in me...

i cant really imagine myself being evil or anything though

[admiringly]

why wouldn't i believe you?
you wouldn't lie to me would you?
i can't imagine you ever being evil either but you don't need to be evil to be convinced to do questionable things
