Welcome to Retrospec™, the last social media network you will ever need. You are one of the few selected to test this exciting new platform based on our cutting-edge algorithms. Less than two hundred invitations have gone out, and membership is not currently open to the public. However, we hope you will come to see how useful Retrospec™ is, given time. We have for your use a variety of features such as text, voice, video, and image posts. We encourage you to explore our many options.

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. As a reminder, everything besides uploading a profile picture and information was locked until this post. 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. Oddly, profile pictures still cannot be swapped out at this time, so hopefully you took a good one.

This post is an overflow from the original post here. Feel free to either carry over threads from there or create entirely new ones.

Souji Narukami You can do it! 。*:☆(・ω・人・ω・)。:゜☆。

[ ryoji's use of cute kaomojis is spreading to souji... ]

Souji Narukami Not to worry
Souji Narukami Just gently tap on the window to get their attention and then hold it out in front of them
Souji Narukami They'd eventually take it

[personal profile] appraiser 2017-02-02 11:20 pm (UTC)(link)
[ GOOD because kaomojis are cute, if useless in attracting cats. Hear that tap tap tap? It's him. He's here. ]

Ryoji Mochizuki oh!!
Ryoji Mochizuki it licked the windowpane
Ryoji Mochizuki i've heard of cats squeezing under door frames, but
Ryoji Mochizuki windows get sealed up for the winter so i don't think this'll work

[ getting up to check out the tapping because what is that noise?? ]

Souji Narukami It's okay
Souji Narukami Just put your hand on the window and I'm sure the cat will press its paw on it too
Souji Narukami That just might be the next best thing you can do

[ and as soon as souji finishes sending those messages on his phone, he goes to open the blinds aaaaand-- oh... hello ryoji ]

[personal profile] appraiser 2017-02-02 11:39 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Whatever reply Ryoji was in the middle of typing back doesn't get sent, because when he looks up from the screen, his hand isn't pressed lovingly against the visage of a cute cat, but rather a person— and he yelps in surprise, possibly loud enough to be heard indoors.

He holds a hand up in apology, and (because priorities, right?) clears his text field to send off one last message to Souji before he gets hauled away by the cops ]

[ souji just... stares, watching ryoji just run off. he then looks down at his phone when it buzzes and-- oh, judging from this message, ryoji didn't know that it was... him?? well, time to ROLL WITH IT ]

Souji Narukami WHAT'S YOUR STATUS, SOLDIER

[personal profile] appraiser 2017-02-02 11:53 pm (UTC)(link)
[ He ducks around the building into the alleyway, not quite giving up but able to slip away onto the streets if need be. ]

Souji Narukami YOU ARE SAFE FOR NOW THEN, PRIVATE
Souji Narukami HOWEVER, YOUR MISSION IS NOT COMPLETE
Souji Narukami PLEASE PROCEED BACK TO THE WINDOW FOR ONE MORE TEST RUN

[ now that souji knows that the window that ryoji was tapping on was his, he isn't really worried about ryoji getting into trouble and can now truly give Bad Advice That Actually Is Okay Advice Since There's No Real Trouble ]

[personal profile] appraiser 2017-02-03 10:26 pm (UTC)(link)
[ what responsible trolling ]

Ryoji Mochizuki WILCO
Ryoji Mochizuki STANDBY FIVE

[ Back pressed against the side of the building, Ryoji edges back around towards the window. The blinds have been opened, which would have given him a clear view of the room inside and fair warning of any person standing guard, if, you know, it weren't impossible to peek without exposing his entire face. but that's the risk he has to take, right!? For the sake of cats!! So— futilely flattening the hair on top of his head that's going to give him away no matter how hard he tries— he raises a knuckle, and taps the glass two times in quick succession. Cat, cat come here. ]

Souji Narukami WE WISH YOU BEST OF LUCK

[ Souji is nowhere in sight when Ryoji returns back to the window, but the cats have disappeared as well. It seems all empty inside this room and when Ryoji taps on the glass, there's no sound of movement from whoever was here earlier to open the blinds. However, within a second of the tapping, a head appears! The head of a cute little peach-coloured cat pops up, staring right at the perpetrator. Strangely enough, nothing else of the cat can be seen, not even its adorable little paws on the windowsill, but who cares about that? Ryoji has the attention of this beautiful feline. Entice it before it decides to scurry off! ]

[personal profile] appraiser 2017-02-04 02:26 am (UTC)(link)
[ Oh no, it's cute... It's so cute... Up close, undistracted by typing on his phone, the cat is so cute, Ryoji pockets his phone to place both hands against the glass, tapping with just the one finger to hold the cat's attention. ]

Hi, cat...

[ His voice, too low to be heard through the glass, nevertheless fogs up the surface as he breathes away the frost, so close that his forehead presses against the glass. ]

[ The cat stares at him, unblinking. It only moves its eyes as Ryoji taps on the glass once again. Then, it moves closer towards the glass, its paws finally appearing to place them on the windowsill. It sniffs at the window for a few seconds, wary of this strange person creepily fogging it up, but then it raises one single paw into the air. ]

[ Is this it? The moment where it will reach out with its paw to touch with Ryoji's? It's so close that it can and... ]

[personal profile] tarotcards 2017-02-04 04:01 am (UTC)(link)
[ ... then a person suddenly appears, holding the cat and all. ]

[ Heeeeere's Souji! ]

[ Just awkwardly squatting there, holding Cream-san in front of him, and moving one of her front legs to wave. ]

[personal profile] appraiser 2017-02-05 12:02 am (UTC)(link)
[ Souji's face will forever give him nightmares, more than that movie ever did (and it did, for two weeks, then he packed up and moved to the Bahamas where there is no snow nor hopefully axe murderers). One day, Ryoji will look back at this and laugh, but today, right now, he yelps and yanks his face back to put two yards distance between him and the window, both hands clasped over his chest to still his pounding heart. Mouth open, affronted, about to say something or do something but

he can't help it

he's so weak

he has to wave back to Cream-san first, it's only polite. ]

[personal profile] tarotcards 2017-02-05 06:53 am (UTC)(link)
[ If Souji has caused any lasting damages to Ryoji's psyche, enough for him to pack up and jump on a plane to the other side of the world, then he will gladly set a Gofundme for Ryoji's expenses. That's the least he could do, right? ]

[ After Ryoji waves at Cream-san, Souji wraps an arm around her so he could continue to hold her as he reaches into his pocket to pull out his phone. After some tricky one-handed texting, he sends off the following messages: ]


Souji Narukami CONGRATULATIONS, SOLDIER
Souji Narukami IT SEEMS AS IF YOU WERE ABLE TO ENGAGE WITH THE FELINE TARGET

[personal profile] appraiser 2017-02-05 08:50 pm (UTC)(link)
[ There are some things a person just can't escape from no matter how far they run away... This might be one of those things, but any impromptu escape plans are cut off when his phone buzzes in his pocket and startles his mind away from anything rash.

"Narukami." It's him. It's the commander. ]


Ryoji Mochizuki THANK YOU, COMMANDER
Ryoji Mochizuki IT WAS A DIFFICULT TRIAL BUT I MANAGED TO SURVIVE
Ryoji Mochizuki PERMISSION TO RECONVENE FOR DEBRIEFING?

[ please let him in, it's cold and he would like to sit down somewhere that's not in the snow ]
tarotcards: ((*`ー´))

[personal profile] tarotcards 2017-02-07 10:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Souji Narukami PERMISSION GRANTED
Souji Narukami PROCEED TO THE FRONT ENTRANCE OF THE BUILDING WHERE YOU SHALL BE ESCORTED TO THE DEBRIEFING

[ Which is just around the corner where Souji will eventually head off to. It's okay, he'll let Ryoji in and pet with the cats. ]

[personal profile] appraiser 2017-02-08 07:32 pm (UTC)(link)
[ With a mock salute towards the window, Ryoji bounds off to the front door, careful to tuck his hands back into his coat pockets after knocking— a sharp one-two— to keep them warm and toasty for cat petting.

This is where the real battle begins! Under the guidance of Commander Narukami and armed with dried squid, there's no way he can fail— or at least, he won't leave until he succeeds in maintaining at least two seconds of paw holding. Just casually moves in with you all, nbd. ]

[ Souji salutes back before he takes off. He tucks Cream-san into one arm and makes his way to the lobby. Once he sees Ryoji, he opens the front door and holds it for him to enter. When he does, Souji stands up straight, feet together, and gives one more salute (who let these children play army??) ]

Mochizuki-san. [ He then lowers his arm and wraps it around the very calm and fluffy cat. ] I trust that you made it here without any issues.
