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.

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.

Okay!

Trick, please!

Here you go!

[Watching and... jesus, her home country is so weird]

I wish I had a polar bear to cheer me on whenever life was getting crazy.
frostflowers: (as long as the memories)

[personal profile] frostflowers 2017-10-17 03:46 pm (UTC)(link)
[ At least it's weird and cute! ]

It'd be nice, huh? I guess it'd weird too, but this app causes a lot of weird things already.

It's true, a cheerleading polar bear seems tame for Retrospec when I think about it.

Though given the spirit of Halloween, maybe I should go for a cat instead.

A cheerleader cat would be even cuter!
Maybe one with a witch's hat?

[Oh Sakura is absolutely going to sketch up a picture of a tiny baby kitten peeking out under a huge witch's hat, and then send the attachment to Kouran.

This is the content they deserve]


Something like this?
frostflowers: (despite having lived long)

[ This is what joy looks like: admiring cute cats and experiencing cathartic bliss. You can't go wrong with kitty cats.

Kouran absolutely couldn't help making a high-pitched sound once she saw the drawing. ]


(ノ≧∀≦)ノ It's so cute!! A cheerleader that can melt anyone's heart!

You draw too, Sakura-san?
imaginex: (♥ ready)

[personal profile] imaginex 2017-10-20 11:22 pm (UTC)(link)
I do! Watercolors are my usual medium, but I like to doodle a lot, too. (*≧ω≦*)

So if you ever need a drawing for something, let me know.
frostflowers: (that ought to have been slaughtered)

[personal profile] frostflowers 2017-10-21 07:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, I do watercolours as well! I only started painting a few months ago though, and I'm not that good at drawing...
imaginex: (♥ pleased)

Just keep up the hard work and you'll improve in no time. I know it's cliché, but practice really does make perfect.

I only started improving once I tried drawing once everyday.
frostflowers: (from the bottom of the pits)

[personal profile] frostflowers 2017-10-24 04:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah, then I should make some time to practice more! Maybe I can ask the Art Club members for advice too...
imaginex: (♥ pleasant)

[personal profile] imaginex 2017-10-25 02:21 am (UTC)(link)
That's a really good idea. I didn't even consider that.

Maybe I should do the same and get some ideas for my portfolio.
frostflowers: (―as far as it takes.)

[personal profile] frostflowers 2017-10-25 06:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Do you go to the high school, too?
imaginex: (♦ paused)

[personal profile] imaginex 2017-10-26 12:58 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, no. I don't. Is that where you meant?

I was hoping Recollé U would have something similar.
frostflowers: (And now at the end of the days)

[personal profile] frostflowers 2017-10-31 09:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, that's where I meant!

But I'm sure the university should have a club like that, too.
