ah right
you probably went back to thinking it was normal after that day too huh?
but that's not bad tbh, it got super tiring smh
and now you can enjoy nice refreshing mornings without monsters so win-win!

also if you ever get your hands on those things
you know where to send them ｡ﾟ+.(･∀･)ﾟ+.ﾟ
i'm looking for new challenges and projects all the time!

It was really weird, remembering a day like that weeks later. There's uh, something I don't have anymore since then.

But it was fun. I also want some more Good Bean pastries.

I'll keep that in mind! It sounds like something you really enjoy doing... Probably more than monster fighting at least. You want to become fashion designer?

yeah?
if you want more you can stop by any time tbh
or just visit the design department at recolle u since i bring a bunch with me when i work

anyway yeah but i also enjoy like almost everything else more than monster fighting (´Д｀)
that's what i'm studying for! i'm here on a scholarship

[Or he thought he was but WHO EVEN KNOWS, REALITY IS A LIE, HE NEEDS A NAP.]

Sounds good to me! I missed the apple turnovers. And Squishy... but you trapping it under a bell jar was funny.

Yeah, I figured that a lot is better than fighting for your life... but you can look good doing it, I guess. Scholarship mean you have to work hard though, balancing school and Recolle things sounds... like a time

Ah, by the way, I'm staying with the owner of that restaurant, Botamochi? If you ever want something I can deliver an order or two for you if I visit the design department.

[ REALITY MAY BE A LIE, BUT FOOD IS ALWAYS HERE FOR YOU. Attached is some instagram of some pretty temarizushi. Yanagi though, far from a big user of fancy photo sharing sites, didn't notice the caption of Takumi's mom/Takumi saying Yanagi ate 12 of them. RIP. ]

i can promise apple turnovers at least, even if that's all i can promise

[NO MORE SQUISHYS, a true modern tragedy.]

anyway, thanks for that °+(*´∀｀)°+° and yeah it's rough but tons of other people are doing it so idk
maybe we can form a support group or something once classes are back in session
weekly pizza parties so no one gets too down

that's super nice of you too!
we can do a trade or something
but wow
that temarizushi must have been something else for you to eat that many huh （゜◇゜）

[HE'S IMPRESSED.]

[ ...Whelp. ]

asdfgh

They were really good... Mrs. Minamoto put a lot of love into them!!! Sushi rice is just delicious too.

But that sounds like a fair deal.

So uh... people get weird things and memories when you have the app, right? Is that where your sword came from, and your red eyes?

[SUSHI GLUTTONY, REVEALED.]

nah i totally get you
sometimes you just have to go the whole 9 yards and eat everything ☆*ヾ(-∀・*)*+☆

but yeah
it's not really that the app gives you these things so much as it's just like
an indicator of who retrospec can mess with i guess??
so
the red eyes and sword were kind of given to me by them
or given back i guess

This is....
Really surreal for someone who came here thanks to an exchange program and either the best or worst luck possible.

Wait, given back? That makes it sound like you're secretly a demon samurai and they found you out.

i guess it depends on how you want to look at it
it's exhausting luck in either case though tbh

and yeeeah
apparently that's one theory based on stuff some people found out in unreality
that we were originally like this or something
but we don't have any solid evidence ┐(´д`)┌
and probably won't because retrospec never shares anything

In a month or so I'll tell you how tired I get of this place's antics.

...What. That's one hell of a theory. But that also sounds like something that Retrospec doesn't want to be proven.

i'll be here for it (-∧-；)
but yeah right??
idk how to even start proving or disproving something like that
i guess it sounds like they heard it from a non-retrospec source at first but we can't go back to unreality to ask for more details either so we're kind of stuck

I'm going to enjoy my newfound freedom, bento, and temarizushi until then.

On one hand
please don't throw people into unreality. Everyone came back one piece but my older sister apparently lost her Retrospec account during it, which is really bad.

On the other
information would be nice because that's just asking for identity crises and more questions than any person should deal with.

good idea tbh

but i'm sorry to hear about your sister
i heard a friend of mine was going to be told why that happens later so i can ask him and pass the info on if you want
it's not really the info we super need right now but i mean
any little piece can help i think
even if that just makes this all seem like a big stupid confusing puzzle

[And his ass is no good at puzzles.]

I'd appreciate it. I can pass it on to Saku-nee and Yato-kun too.

Asking this place to be straightforward about confusing things is a lot to ask of them, huh? ┐(￣ヘ￣)┌ But I heard there were a lot of puzzles last month to get anywhere.

[ He emoji'd because there's no good way to express the feeling of "im starting to feel tired already" in text ]

thank you

[Also he feels that emoji on a deep and spiritual level, honestly.]

yep pretty much! the sooner you accept that the better it is for you i guess
maybe
idk
it's still super frustrating imo but at least you won't be surprised
and yes omfg
there were so many puzzles
like 10000 puzzles

[NOT THAT MANY but it sure felt like it. He did 2 weeks straight of riddles, he needed to nap for a long time.]

I thought college teaches you critical thinking to figure out difficult problems

or something like that.

Then again an exam filled with nothing but puzzles sounds tiring. Or a room where you can only escape by solving puzzles.

yeah! (￣Д￣；；
i would way rather do exams with stupid trick instructions or whatever than another one of those puzzle rooms
there were so many riddles
i got stuck to a magnet floor all for a piece of paper that said "he likes chocolate" like wtf even is that??

You know, the logic behind that riddle kinda lines up with the logic of

well

everything else I've hear about that's happened.

The creative mind behind this the final boss of Recolle. Or an annoying as hell boss.

if that's the case i'm going to kick their ass
i know different people put together different exams anyway like one was done by jim, etc
but i have nooo idea where those riddles came from or why they were there
except that maybe ours had something to do with ghosts??

Oooh ghosts, spooky. Were they important ghosts or just scary dudes out to get you and company.

Are all of Retrospec's staff behind those things? That's fishy as hell. Like this is one giant scheme. Of course, it's all in the dark, yeah?

they were important ghosts i think
or at least ours were
we met a founder?? a founding ghost? or a memory or something idk
there are more ghosts in the woods though
and spirit animals

[It's a wild ride and he wants to get Off.]

also only the exam parts are from retrospec i think
which kind of makes sense since we were in their bases of operation and all
we needed employee ids and everything
it was pretty nuts
but yeah no one knows for sure, 100% sure, what's going on
or if anyone does they aren't saying anything

[ Someone save Kiyo from his unlimited-ride pass on the Recollercoaster. ]

I can't believe that there is supernatural stuff on top of corporate espionage, and in general, breaking the laws of nature.

Wait,

they're like actual exams and not a metaphor from an overworked university student?

What the fuck. How is this helpful to anyone?Aside from the bits of information.

[THE RECOLLERCOASTER. Legit though he didn't want this pass but here he is.]

LOL right??
apparently one weird thing at a time isn't enough and they just have to whole hog it
but yeah basically
they're like "hey are you good enough to be an employee" exams that apparently literally all of the current employees had to go through
so it was a pain in the ass but they couldn't disable protocol when there was only like 2 of them left
probably
especially since one of those 2 was an intern and the other was like singlehandedly trying to contact everyone and keep reality from collapsing into a void
