Hey did anyone else's AVA app gitch just now? My phone was stuck for hours and all I saw was this.

[There are three image attachments of screenshots following this section of code.]

This app thing. It's it's just us, the rest of the city is too many people to be pretending not to notice for whatever weird experiment this is.

[whiteshroud]

[....Oh no. He's in the denial stage.]

None of them are pretending to not notice, Yuya. It's more they're unable to perceive it.

[hippocarnival]

Yeah but that doesn't make any sense. How would it even work?

[It's not so much denial as it is completely inconceivable. That's just not an explainable thing in the world that Vitae is--or was.]

You ever heard of the concept of the "sixth sense"?

Having a sixth sense allows one to perceive things most people would view as "supernatural". Most humans either lack a sixth sense, or it's too weak to really matter.

In other words, asking most people to see the barrier would be like asking a blind man to notice a rainbow.

[hippocarnival]

So you think all of this is because of spirits or something?

[whiteshroud]

Potentially, yes.
Or something that uses the same form of power.

[hippocarnival]

And then we were picked because we can see them and everyone else can't.

I wish I knew what it was for.

[whiteshroud]

Potentially. Or you were selected for another reason and the app is temporarily amplifying your sixth sense.

Mm. I wish I knew too.
