WEEK ONE: MINGLE 2

[saturations]

MINGLE

Wow... well then. Things certainly happened, didn't they? It seems as though things have calmed down once again in the Prism after the events of this weekend. You have lodging and food now, and while the area is still cold and monochrome in some places you've restored and gained access to four colorful spaces.

In the morning, everyone receives a text on their phones. Or, a picture with a text, actually.

BEHOLD

At the far end of the park in the central node, you'll hear the faint sound of rumbling as something new appears. Perhaps you wish to take a look?

For those of you feeling particularly daring, you are free to explore a bit further on your own.

Before you venture too far, though, make sure you take a moment to check out the booth in the lobby of the apartments. Seems like it's not broken anymore!

So much excitement for one day. Maybe take a moment to evaluate how you're feeling. Some of you might have gained or lost a color as time moved on. Not just that, though. Throughout the course of this week you will find yourself coming into the possession of a new talent that belongs to someone else. Other times, you'll find that you've lost your own talents and are unable to perform as expected. That's cumbersome, isn't it? Look on the bright side! Maybe you'll discover a new hobby this way.

Finally, as always, you may contact the residents at any time. They may even have something new for you to do.

Welcome to your week one mingle for chroma!

Things of note:
► This week's effect is talent loss/talent gain! You'll randomly over the week lose something you're very good at, and gain something you've never been able to do before. Go wild with this as long as you're not breaking things.
► Player location submissions are now open!
► moida submissions are also now open!
► More to come... keep your eyes and ears open.

How morbid.

[itsuki doing hangman in a library right before someone gets hit by a truck. i see.]

...but it can't hurt to give it a try. We should try the most common letters first, I assume?

[nightchild]

[HE DIDN'T START THIS]

Right, once we get enough in here, then we might be able to guess the word.

[a forty five letter word..................... okay]

[countermeasures]

[well



there is a 45 letter word that is actually a medical term so]

Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis?

[nightchild]

[



the monsters, and Itsuki, are stunned.

One of them marks the word out on the rest of the page, it's a perfect hit...]

Eh, Jiu-chan? That was amazing! How did you figure it out?

[countermeasures]

[I was really planning to not have her know but the fact that it was a medical term.... aaaaaa]

...lucky guess?

[nightchild]

[STOP THIS IS FUNNIER]

Is that what it takes? Amazing... [the monsters are leaving though, suitably cowed] That makes you my savior today.

[itsuki knowing that he'd die if he got that word wrong, and yet his unreasonable confidence pushed him through]

[countermeasures]

[yeah, you run away, monsters.]

I'm glad I could help you.

[nightchild]

[he looks away at the cowardly bottom monsters,]

You know, even though five of them ambushed me... I didn't feel scared at all? I felt like, super confident I could take them on.

[countermeasures]

...

[hmm.]

Well, I know you're skilled, but I would expect more self-preservation than that from you.

[nightchild]

[he feels a little scolded but at the same time!!]

No, really, I mean it! I knew I was going to be okay. [he was losing] Well, one way or another. Maybe it's because I knew you'd come and rescue me.

[countermeasures]

That's a flattering thing for you to say, but... that can't be it. I wasn't even here until a few minutes ago!

[...]

Did you start feeling that confident only when they approached you? Or have you been feeling like that all day?

[nightchild]

[but that has to be it though... it makes sense!]

Yeah, since I woke up this morning. [...] Um, Jiu-chan, I can ask you for some doctor advice, right?

[countermeasures]

Of course you can. What is it?

[this is before the cyoa returns so she's not super busy yet!!]

[nightchild]

[bless]

You use needles, right? Is it possible to prick someone without waking them up? Not just once, but like... a lot?

[what happened itsuki]

[countermeasures]

...um. Yes, it is. Acupuncture needles typically don't hurt if they're being used by someone who knows what they're doing, so if someone is sleeping deeply, it's entirely possible that they may not notice.

[...]

Did you wake up with puncture marks?

[nightchild]

[he looks like he's thinking about it, then he shakes his head]

...I woke up with a tattoo. On my back. I thought it was paint? But it didn't come off in the shower.

[countermeasures]

[uh]

I'd expect you to feel that, unless it was very small. Please show it to me.

[


is she really asking him to take off his shirt right here in the library]

[nightchild]

Sure.

[this is hazukasshi, no Itsuki looks surprised but he does in fact lift up his shirt and then turn so that Jiuqing can see the top of a tattoo peeking over his waistband

It's this]

[countermeasures]

[


what the hell]

...I really don't think that's the sort of tattoo one could sleep through getting.

[nightchild]

Yeah, that's pretty much what I thought... Is it a color thing then? I don't remember if we have a power that can make tattoos...

[he pinches at it experimentally,]

[countermeasures]

I don't think there are any... at least, not from our regular colors. Maybe from something else?

[nightchild]

[someone with an emo color made this...]

...This isn't because of the underwear, is it...

[the panties were purple AND black...]

[countermeasures]

...that isn't quite what I was thinking of...
