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.

Gabriel Reyes I highly doubt we're all going to go out and buy Samsung Galaxy S7s.

Ardyn Izunia No. But Retrospec may be kind enough to spark a fire anyway.
Ardyn Izunia Can you imagine it?
Ardyn Izunia The whole of the city with their pants literally set ablaze.

[darthvaper]

Gabriel Reyes I'm trying not to.
Gabriel Reyes Not exactly a pleasant image.

[daemonized]

Ardyn Izunia Surely you find it even the tiniest bit amusing?
Ardyn Izunia After all, it's likely far more innocuous than the actual truth behind Retrospec.

[darthvaper]

Gabriel Reyes Speculation's nice, but I don't like jumping to conclusions until I've got more information.
Gabriel Reyes Has anyone even heard of this company before?

[daemonized]

Ardyn Izunia None that I've spoke to.
Ardyn Izunia They've literally been a ghost up until this point. Reassuring, no?

[darthvaper]

Gabriel Reyes Even ghosts have a story.
Gabriel Reyes There must be something to this company that we can't seem to find.
Gabriel Reyes Maybe they merged? Or were bought out and had their name changed?

one million years later

Ardyn Izunia Sounds a bit too tinfoil hat, don't you think?

[But Ardyn speaks in jest. All of this is already skewing on the side of Way Too Weird.]

Ardyn Izunia If it's any consolation, I have no doubt the police department will be itching to investigate this sooner rather than later.

does that make this thread a fossil?

[darthvaper]

Gabriel Reyes Just as much as a company appearing out of thin air.
Gabriel Reyes But you're right. Hopefully the police start doing some digging on this.
Gabriel Reyes Has anyone brought it to their attention that you know of?

it does. handle with care.

[daemonized]

Ardyn Izunia No need. A detective I know is already on the case.
Ardyn Izunia Or should I say, he's made his own post to this Retrospec app.
Ardyn Izunia So at the very least he's aware of it.

my middle name is care. although my last name is less, so...

[darthvaper]

Gabriel Reyes That's reassuring.
Gabriel Reyes Might I ask who this detective is?

eh i'm sure it'll be fiiine

[daemonized]

Ardyn Izunia Bigby Wolf.
Ardyn Izunia Look for the man with the frown etched permanently on his features.

what's the worst that could happen

[darthvaper]

Gabriel Reyes Sounds familiar.
Gabriel Reyes Any relation to Elizabeth Wolf?

[daemonized]

Ardyn Izunia Bigby is her very scruffy husband. You know Elizabeth?

[darthvaper]

Gabriel Reyes We're both teachers at the high school, so yes.

[daemonized]

Ardyn Izunia Really? And what is it that you teach?

[darthvaper]

Gabriel Reyes Home economics.

[daemonized]

Ardyn Izunia Is that so?
Ardyn Izunia Then I'm envious. Everyone loves the home ec teacher, don't they?

[darthvaper]

Gabriel Reyes I'd like to think so.
Gabriel Reyes Then again, a lot of my students are intimidated by me during the first few months.

[daemonized]

Ardyn Izunia And when do they start to come around?
Ardyn Izunia The cooking or the sewing portion?

[darthvaper]

Gabriel Reyes We do some of that in my course, but I prefer to teach them topics that have more immediate relevancy.
Gabriel Reyes Like balancing a budget or writing a resume.

[daemonized]

Ardyn Izunia A well-rounded class, indeed.
Ardyn Izunia I wish my old home ec teacher had been so thoughtful. But unfortunately, I was fated to learn how to sew pillowcases instead.
