[posted late on 10/6] and so, arm-ageddon begins

[frostythehitman]

Retrospect just chopped my f****** arm off
I woke up this morning with only one arm
My dad's going nuclear and my sister screamed when she saw me
What the hell am I supposed to do now

Before anyone asks no I don't need to go to the hospital I already got it looked at
But consider this a PSA start sleeping with one eye open
In case retrospect comes for you in the middle of the night with a f****** hatchet

Anyway this means A Lyrical Assassination is going on indefinite hiatus
I never got around to finishing it but here's what I managed to put together for the new album before retrospect decided to rip my arm off
Enjoy it because it's the last music I ever made

[ And here is a link to his soundcloud/bandcamp. The album cover is this, and the track listing is here. ]

Did the doctors tell you the nature of the wound? What might have caused its origin, I mean.

[redarm]

what the fuck.
i knew they added body parts but hacking them off??

[lesinset]

sounds like they didnt appreciate your art
what assholes

[godcards]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[cattack]

Are you all right?
Beyond the obvious, I mean.
Is there any lingering pain or phantom feeling?

[buncho]

left or right

[ also how are you doing now, are you okay, etc etc but she needs something to visualize first ]

[covenantal]

[ holy shit.

holy shit!

why does this keep happening???? ]

... would you like company, Bucky?

[flowrite]

[Fai doesn't know this guy, but holy shit--]

oh my god, I'm so sorry
I mean, I know a couple of people have lost eyes, but

Do you need anything? have you thought about a prosthetic?

[lecturehall]

Absolutely not!

[blessmefather]

[ God. First that young lady's eye, now James' arm. How much crueler can Retrospec be? No, don't answer that.

Matt just barely knows James and he's no doctor so there's no obvious thing to say. He can think of great number of things NOT to say. He remembers what made him frustrated when he was in the hospital at ten years old, and how hard it was to tolerate... anything. ]

Did the doctors say anything about prosthetic or physical therapy options?

[mr_fancy_car]

If you need to take time off from school, you may do so.

[parodeity]

well that shit sucks

weird question but
do you remember not having an arm back then

[playdolls]

They have prosthetics for that.

[ A total lack of sympathy. ]

[commandertoolbelt]

now THAT is messed up
are you gonna get a prosthetic or what
aside from that you're okay right??

[reticence]

[He's heard about Retrospec giving people traumatic memories and ridiculous items, but this is entirely new and entirely terrifying a concept to wrap his mind around and the fact that he's talking about his dad... He doesn't know how old the poster is, but he has to be still just a kid.]

I'm sorry. The more I learn about Retrospec the more shit the whole thing seems.

You linked an album. What d'you play?

[constellates]

!!!!!!
do you know officer togusa
and grell sutcliffe

are you alright
can i help with anything

[she doubts it but there's always the default need to offer???]

[digthefuzz]

your arm???

holy
no way man

i'm so sorry

[mercurio]

dude what the hell

[alitaba]

so do you want a sweet guitar arm or an exchangeable parts one.

[totallynotanoni]

[ Katherine's blood has literally run cold, and suddenly her horns feel a little lighter on her head. Body alterations are one thing, but this...this is just sick! ]

I am very sorry this happened.
I can't believe that Retrospect would go this far.

[ She has no idea who this kid is, but she has a pretty good idea of what he's going through right now. Waking up without an arm is never a pleasant experience. ]

-Coming much, much later that day.-

I spoke to the others. You're being released from your contract, and you'll have your payout before the end of the month. It should be plenty to cover any expenses for you, medically, and then some.

I don't know what else to say. I wish I did. So much for being a poet, right?

SLIDES IN LATE WITH STARBUCKS

[livingdeadgirl]

holy shit
are you ok???

[she sends another message right away though-]

sorry that was a stupid question
is there anything i can do to help i mean
