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.

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.

That phrase is so creepy who even started that.

I'm not sure to be honest. I read somewhere its origins came from a poem from the 1900s but you can't trust everything on top ten lists.

But hey! It's a handy saying to pull out when you're trying to be serious about a promise you made. Usually.

Unless someone has a severe phobia of needles, in which case they may become less likely to trust you.
If they're the type to take things literally anyway.

I suppose it's the fear of needles for the literal individuals and the threat of being seen untrustworthy by others that drives others to take it seriously.

Not everyone of course. I just find the saying cute!

And in some cases it might be a combination of both of them.
Sucks to be whoever that dude is.

And of course you would.

Naturally - Sayings like those always tickled my fancy.

I'll let you know when we can have a star viewing activity together in the future, Karkat. I promise you that this will be a lot of fun for the both of us.

That I do!

See you later, Karkat. I hope you have a wonderful day.
