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.

True enough, I guess. This all just feels super silly. [Because, you know, god forbid.] But it is kind of between this or just ignoring everything, huh?

I'm just amazed how many there are. But they are all very cute. All the pictures, regardless of species.
Though if I had to rank them, I'd put the cats in the #1 spot.

yeah basically
so far cyber sleuthing doesnt seem to be working
and id rather know whats up on here than like
stick my head in the sand i guess?

so youre a cat person huh
so are both my sisters
cat people are the best kind of people

[swordere]

I guess that's sensible.
I won't lie, I'm pretty curious myself. But I'm worried we'll end up with a very boring, logical explanation and I'll have wasted my time for nothing.

They have good taste.
And where do your loyalties lie? Cats, dogs, etc.?

[parodeity]

i have an iguana but cats > dogs
i have to say that or my fam would kill me
also i love cats

i dont think itll be a boring and logical explanation
just because
shits weird

[swordere]

Yes, good. 🐱
Having an iguana sounds pretty interesting, though.
I've never had a pet myself.

[She may love cats, but alas. Tragically not an actual cat owner.]

...True.
I guess I'm just hoping anyway.
I want to look back at this and roll my eyes at ever worrying about this, you know?

[parodeity]

really?
parental allergies or you allergies or what

honestly thats the dream
i get an inkling we may not be so lucky
but until then why fuss?

[swordere]

My parents just don't want one.
Something about none of us really having the time for it, which I guess is fair.

Probably a good way of handling it.
I feel like it's going to bother me no matter what I do, so maybe it doesn't really matter.

[parodeity]

oh that sucks
if you ever want to pet a cat or smth my sisters have one each

[swordere]

Thanks. I'll keep that in mind.

😊
