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.

Your confidence in me is so sweet! Thank you.

I feel like I have to try and write fortunes in my sleep now just so I don't disappoint you.

[alienates]

If you manage then the two of us are starting a fortune cookie empire on the side.

[caelestialis]

Does that mean you would join me in this endeavour? I would love that! Together, we can rule the business and be the next Edgar Cayce and Sonia Choquette in fortune cookies.

[alienates]

If we ignore all of the blatantly crazy shit they said, sure!
We can be the Edgar Cayce and Sonia Choquette in fortune cookies.

[caelestialis]

Yay! We'll spread good fortunes and vague wisdoms to everyone who takes the time to open a cookie after lunch or dinner!

This will be perfect for the both of us, hehehehe.

[alienates]

And get this:
Think of all the free fortune cookies you can give to your students.

[caelestialis]

I never thought of that!!!

Thank you so much for pointing that out! That idea alone is worth a fortune. [ is that a pun ainsley. is that a pun. ]

[alienates]

Was that a pun or an unfortunate coincidence.

[caelestialis]

Would you believe me if I said a little of Column A, a little of Column B?

[alienates]

I hate that my answer is yes.

[caelestialis]

Hehehe! You know me so well

If ever a doppelganger ever comes and rears their familiar head, I now know who to turn to when it comes to telling apart the real from the impostor.

[alienates]

That is a lot of pressure to put on one guy but you know what?
I accept the challenge.

[caelestialis]

Thank you, Karkat.

For having my back when the inevitable doppelganger threat arises from the depths of the sewers and for putting up with me being me.

[alienates]

Someone has to save the citizens from the impostor.
And you are far from the worst person I talk to so.

[caelestialis]

Would be alright if I took that as a compliment from you then?

[alienates]

Ugh
Yeah I guess sure.

[caelestialis]

I know that was a strange thing to ask but, really, it means a lot we're friends.

Good enough friends to see each other soon? Maaaaaaaybe? [ ainsley why are you like this sometimes. ]

[alienates]

What do you have in mind

[caelestialis]

Nothing too serious! I was thinking we either see that new movie marathon that's being held over at the Flix ooor you can join me during an astronomy event that's happening in March. Whichever you think will be more fun to do.

[alienates]

I'm good with either.
You seem like you'd be more into the astronomy thing though.

[caelestialis]

And right you are!

I just want to bore you to death in something that might not click with you is all. I've learned by now that looking up coordinates and taking photos of star formations and constellations won't be everyone's cup of tea.

[alienates]

I have a friend who's really into that sort of thing so I guess this might help me out with her?
So sure let's check out the sky.

[caelestialis]

We can?

Oh that'll be wonderful! Thank you, Karkat! I promise you that you won't regret this. It'll be a lot of fun! ❤★ [ oh no she's back to the emojis. save yourself, karkat. ]

[alienates]

Just tell me when the thing is happening and we can meet there?? Or
Whatever???

[caelestialis]

I promise I'll let you know when we can do stargazing together. Cross my hear and hope to die, stick a needle in my eye! And all that jazz.
