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. This is an overflow for the original post HERE! Please feel free to continue threads from there or to make new toplevels as you like.

Um, this anomaly isn't going to hurt the people who don't have access to this app, will it...?

But otherwise cute layout!! (๑˃ᴗ˂)ﻭ

I hope we can keep it after Halloween.

[[Top level here!] New responses welcome!]

I work at an occult shop, so we have no reason to be open on Thanksgiving.

I'll double check with my boss anyway.

Haha, but thank you for the heads up! I would've been embarrassed if I'd gone to work when it was closed.

[sketchythief]

its always good to make sure with your boss, since your boss is the one making the schedules after all

glad to have helped! :)

trick or treat?

[imaginex]

Hmmm, how about.... treat!

John

[imaginex]

So that means you're going all out with your costume?

[vitis]

oh heck no
that's not my motto

[imaginex]

You're not dressing up as anything?

Mion

[imaginex]

Those are my favorites.

I'm a little sad America doesn't have all the flavors Japan does.

[penalizing]

i know!!!
the green tea ones were my favorites

[imaginex]

Yes, that one is delicious!

I also really like the cherry blossom flavor.

... Soybean was a bit strange, though.

icly late!

[The network post went up during fight club, so this will ICly come later on...]

i hate to be the bearer of bad news, but there's a definite chance it could. the last time they mentioned anomalies was when half of us got thrown outside of reality and all the monsters showed up

[imaginex]

... So it's better to be more paranoid than less so, you mean?

As much as I enjoyed it, thanks to it I'll probably put off getting a pet for another month.

Those hands were just unsettling...

[maskreant]

[ !!!!!!!!!!!!!! ]

what kind of pet were you going for?

maybe your soul pet will have manicured hands. reconsider.

[imaginex]

You know... I never thought about it. Or maybe they'll just be a very vivid green or blue! I wouldn't mind that for a while. <(￣︶￣)>

... Really? You wouldn't mind a stranger coming into your home? That's such a generous offer of you to make!

[gunsandveggies]

You should take a picture if it happens! Save how it looks until you get your true color back! ೕ(•̀ᴗ•́)

I wouldn't mind at all! I already have one artist who comes over for the colors. Having one other just means appreciating what we had, and what we'll gain back!

Silver

[imaginex]

You know what this means, don't you?

Obviously you should show me the best stores to pillage.

[feistytrader]

Maybe I will.

November 1st. You, me, our paychecks, and way too much candy. Sound good?

Mizuki

[imaginex]

... I had no idea the app kept a record of names. (-_-) How embarrassing...

Minako

[imaginex]

That's so adorable, I want one...

This is what I get for asking for tricks over treats.

[complementing]

you WANTED tricks instead of treats? O:

though I guess the games are really cute and fun too!

Shuji

[imaginex]

I admit, I wouldn't know too well. I only have a sister and never dated in high school.

But sometimes I'd spy the boys in my class doing something questionable because they dared each other.

[thesettingsun]

That's teenage boys with fragile masculinity for you.

[frostflowers]

It's really cute, isn't it?

Sakura-san, let's play trick or treat!

[imaginex]

Okay!

Trick, please!
