[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. ]

this does not surprise me in the least.

i mean, it's the first time someone has actually come up to me in front of other people and said something about magic and parallel universes! it's rather exciting. (°ロ°) i feel like a main character that just discovered they're a wizard!
fionnuisce: (if you'd only turn to me and say)

[personal profile] fionnuisce 2023-01-02 06:21 am (UTC)(link)
I suppose that isn't necessarily far off from the truth.

[personal profile] escardos 2023-01-02 06:31 am (UTC)(link)
LOL, i'm sure there's many people who would have dreamed of that sort of thing!

[ he's not one of them. he's sick and tired of what he sees. ]

and are there more people that are from here that are similar? or are there more like you, who come from other parallel worlds?
fionnuisce: (i'll gather these fallen flowers)

[personal profile] fionnuisce 2023-01-02 06:35 am (UTC)(link)
There are, in both cases. I can't say which is more common, but the city has its share of people like either of us.

i see! well, that's great to know! ( •̀ ω •́ )✧ it makes me super curious.

[ and also a little anxious, to say the least, but this person doesn't need to know that. ]

I want to say 'you get used to it', but I think I would be lying to you if I did. This place is strange and it shows no signs of stopping anytime soon.
escardos: (quatre.)

[personal profile] escardos 2023-01-02 06:54 am (UTC)(link)
it’s probably not that much stranger than the rest of the world, tbh! 🤔
fionnuisce: (carrying onward)

[personal profile] fionnuisce 2023-01-02 06:56 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe not. I don't know much about the rest of this world, so that wouldn't surprise me too much.

do you not make enough money to travel outside? that’s a shame.
fionnuisce: (to give you a future)

[personal profile] fionnuisce 2023-01-02 02:23 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm not going to run around traveling the world when I barely understand one city.

[personal profile] escardos 2023-01-02 02:28 pm (UTC)(link)
oh, so you’re more of a homebody type of person? 🤔
fionnuisce: (may it follow you forever)

[personal profile] fionnuisce 2023-01-02 02:29 pm (UTC)(link)
No, I'm a 'figure out what the hell is wrong here before worrying about anything else' person.
escardos: (pic#13478919)

[personal profile] escardos 2023-01-02 02:41 pm (UTC)(link)
that’s great to know! you must be stressed all the time.
fionnuisce: (or without your smile)

[personal profile] fionnuisce 2023-01-02 02:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Extremely, thanks.

retail therapy? 🤔 oh wait no, you don’t have money.

my teachers always called me stubborn! (°▽°)9 i’m sure we can find something good for you.
