TEST DRIVE MEME

> The Park. Man, what a nice day out. Why not enjoy it? I'm sure -- shit, yep, there's some echo monsters.
> The Mall. Exactly what it says on the tin! Dodge the hordes of teenage mallrats or take part, whichever suits your tastes.
> Rainy Day. Agh, it's fucking awful out. And is it raining those vermilion things?? Now you've got an Echo to contend with on top of everything else. Find some shelter, quick!
> PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION, HOW FUN
> The most horribly kitschy Arts and Crafts Fair you can imagine.
> NEW YEARS. What better way to start out the new year than to learn that everything you know is a lie? Or if you are already acquainted with the network pass out some resolutions.
> A food fight has just broken out in the cafeteria. Join? Flee? The choice is yours alone.
> Wild Card! Make up your own.

as you shouldn't be!!

Don't worry about it! ♥ I still got really good deals on stuff, and I figured you could use a break after all that holiday baking we did.

I just wish I knew whose bag I really had. There wasn't even a receipt inside.

[gogoghostpowers]

I guess so, so long as you didn't really get hurt in all that.

The network's one place to check, but maybe mention it on Craigslist too? Or the Locke subreddit or something. Broaden the chances of finding the owner, in case they're not on the network after all.

[Olette didn't get hurt. The other customers might be another story, bro...] Oh I hadn't thought about that!! I don't use reddit so you'll have to show me how to use it (: i posted on craigslist but i haven't gotten any responses yet.

I'd use my other accounts, but I figured I should hit the network too. Surely I wasn't the only one of us at this thing!

[gogoghostpowers]

We'll just have to wait and see, then. Maybe we'll get lucky!

That's a good point, though, you probably weren't. Network people tend to show up all over the place--and a lot of them have already met somewhere before. There's just no knowing when someone will show up here. I mean, I definitely wasn't expecting to see you start posting here!

Hell, maybe your bagmate is going to show up on here for the first time tomorrow or something.

[suriyan]

We can hope!

I wasn't either! I think you talked about it a couple of times, but I just thought it was another of your family's conspiracy theories. They really need a lot of us, huh?

Maybe! I just hope he gets his coffeemaker. This thing looks expensive :'(

[gogoghostpowers]

No way, none of my parents' theories come anywhere CLOSE to what's going on here! But yeah, there's definitely a lot of us...and it's like we're getting more every day, too.

Jeez...I guess we'd better hope, huh? Or maybe put up like 'FOUND: ONE LOST COFFEEMAKER" posters around town. I don't know if that would be more or less useful than just posting about it online...

[suriyan]

Seriously?? :O I bet they'd be so mad if they knew they'd missed the mark by that much.

I don't think it'd be super helpful, unless the coffeemaker looked like a dog... :( It's not as important, and I can hold onto this for a long time. It's not like I'm running out of space at my house.

[gogoghostpowers]

Well they were right about the tainted water, so they're not COMPLETELY wrong, I guess. They might be right about some other stuff too, but I don't know yet. So far, they haven't said anything about a magic network for reincarnated people.

So is it gonna be like. A trophy coffee maker? Or are you actually gonna use it until someone comes around and claims it? You could say it's like quality assurance!
