[As the new year rolls in, a deep cold settles into Kaisou. Best bundle up and make sure your heat is on. In the sky, the spirit vein shifts from hues of white and gold to hues of blues. As the clock hits midnight and many of the older app users are well into drinking, the blaring alert sound that comes with a new Zodiac post. The alert will sound even if you have your phone turned off or on silent, and will take over your phone until you read and comment to the message.]

Hello! Thank you for using the Libra App!

Happy New Year! We've reached the new year, and what a year 2022 was! So many incredible and memorable things happened in the past year, it's hard to know where to start! We thank everyone who has been along for the journey of the first year of the Libra app, whether you were with us from launch day or if you just joined today. Your time and engagement with our platform really means the world to us!

We're looking forward to another exciting year with everyone! Let's make 2023 our year, shall we?

Now, as a quick aside among all these new year celebrations, we wanted to report that we have been looking into the unusual changes some of you have been experiencing. While we're still trying to figure out the exact reason it's happening, we did notice that despite our earlier proclaim that the Spirit Vein's barrier was showing signs of healing - we perhaps jumped a bit too quickly on early data. In fact, it seems that early data was nothing more than an outlier and well... the spirit energy level within the city is actually higher than it's ever been, and the exposure to that energy might be what's causing the recent mutations.

While we're not sure why these changes are happening and what can be done to reverse them, don't worry! We're looking into solutions to this problem and let you know as soon as we find something. In the mean time, since it's the start of the new year, we recommend viewing this as a new challenge that could encourage growth! There's been no reports so far of these changes being lethal or harmful, so perhaps you can garner a whole new set of experiences from them!

But with that news out of the way, we encourage you to not let these things get in the way of enjoying the holiday and reflecting on the past year! So now we'll leave you with our icebreaker, and our first annual Libra Unwrapped. Enjoy!

Happy New Year from Zodiac!


[As you finish reaching the message, the app will change to one of end-of-year videos that show off stats like how many times a person has commented, active days, which people they message the most, etc. There is also a slideshow of photos that depict "memorable times" of the year - like the time you fought a dragon or played death soccer or ate at dennys! It's not clear how some of these photos were taken, but that's not important right? For brand new users of the app, the only photo they have is a selfie shot of the expression they made when the app opened. ]

[Users will have the option to choose their own display names and userpics if they haven't already. If nothing is chosen, the app will use their real name and a quick photo taken of them from their camera's phone. Demyx and Sora will be around the city with no memories of the app. Meanwhile Five will be nowhere to be found.

Like always, there'll be no responses from Zodiac. ]

Church is going to be awkward tomorrow.

Yeah, probably. A cure from them might end up being worse.
bolledivita: (Did she die far away?)

[personal profile] bolledivita 2023-01-01 05:54 am (UTC)(link)
yeah i'm not looking forward to that either

exactly. we're best off trying to fix it ourselves
whiteshroud: (jun40)

[personal profile] whiteshroud 2023-01-01 06:00 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe it'll go easier if we sit in the back and try not to make eye contact.

Mm. Have you experienced any of the changes they talked about?
bolledivita: (Open up your eyes & you're gonna see me)

[personal profile] bolledivita 2023-01-01 06:07 am (UTC)(link)
worth a try, at least

i haven't, but my sister has been developing a few dragon-like traits for a while now? i'm not sure if she's gotten any of the recent sorts of changes though
whiteshroud: (jun37)

[personal profile] whiteshroud 2023-01-01 06:21 am (UTC)(link)
Dragon-like trait? Oh yeah- I think I've seen her around church. She had that for awhile...

[WAIT A SEC- DOTS CONNECTING]

Is your sister the girl who married a pope?
bolledivita: (Did we crash in a plane?")

[personal profile] bolledivita 2023-01-01 06:24 am (UTC)(link)
that would be her yes. i've given up trying to make sense of everything she's remembering. i thought my shit was weird enough...
whiteshroud: (jun138)

[personal profile] whiteshroud 2023-01-01 06:39 am (UTC)(link)
Mm, I've experienced and heard of a lot of strange memories, but that was certainly a new one.

Sounds like she led quite a life.
bolledivita: (Did we crash in a plane?")

[personal profile] bolledivita 2023-01-01 06:47 am (UTC)(link)
it does

sometimes it seems like multiple, somehow, but we haven't figured that one out

next to that, the ancient super-vampires i've been remembering seem almost tame
whiteshroud: (jun03)

[personal profile] whiteshroud 2023-01-01 02:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Maybe it is multiple. If we already have one past life, it wouldn't be unreasonable to think some people have more than one.

[...]

Were you the ancient super-vampire or was it someone else?
bolledivita: (I said "Hey girlfriend")

[personal profile] bolledivita 2023-01-08 07:56 am (UTC)(link)
that could be it... hm

definitely someone else. my past self was fighting the ancient super-vampires. went through a whole training from hell arc for it too
whiteshroud: (jun37)

[personal profile] whiteshroud 2023-01-08 07:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Wow...

So you were a vampire hunter then?
bolledivita: (We will never die)

[personal profile] bolledivita 2023-01-08 10:16 pm (UTC)(link)
effectively

mostly focused on like three super-vampires in particular for vengeance reasons but if regular vampires had been more of a problem at the time i probably would have dealt with those too
