WEEKEND ZERO: MINGLE

GREETINGS


Unnerving. That may be the best word to describe how the vibes feel as your sight begins to clear and you find yourself on the ground. The air is chilly, and you don't see anything that may represent the sun or the moon for a sense of time. You look around expecting to find some sort of buildings, wildlife, or anything of use, but your immediate line of vision only shows a sprawling monochrome landscape.

Are you feeling adventurous? As you get to your feet, you have the opportunity to wander further and begin assessing the situation. You'll quickly find that the only thing on your person are the clothes on your back. Traveling will eventually lead you to a few areas, though none of them appear very promising either.

Don't stray too far, however. While there are few hints of plant life (nothing nourishing, nothing satisfying), you won't find much else. There's no food or running water; resources seem scarce. The further you go, the more you begin to feel colder and weaker. Your eyes begin to play tricks on you, and everything ahead of you looks unfocused and even more gray than before. An imminent sense of danger hangs above you...you can't quite pinpoint why, but your gut instinct says there's something else out there just lying beyond your reach.

Perhaps you'll have luck another day. For now, it seems as though your only option is to make use of the areas you do have access to and try to settle in. But don't worry, you aren't alone. There's 35 other people just waiting to see what you'll do next.




Welcome to your weekend zero intro to [community profile] chroma! While characters have access to the locations available, they do not have access to anything else including their home items. Please note that characters do not know what their primary color or complementary colors are as of yet, and IC profiles are not in-play at this time.

Things of note!

► You can find food (cotton candy, stale hot dog buns with no hot dogs, etc) in the carnival, but none of it is filling. It's monochrome, and you're hungry again five minutes later.
► There's water in the mansion but it's kind of grey.
► Seriously, it's cold.
► You arrive in your canon outfit. It is also monochrome, like someone drained the dye out of your clothes.

Stay tuned for more updates throughout the weekend, and happy settling!

[THIS IS SO MEAN... IT COULD BE PLATONIC!!!!! he makes a little face at the mention of 'looking around', but then he brightens again.]

Well, [itsuki says as he looks at clarte's everything, wings.... hair... anime....] we could always hold hands instead. That would make it easier.

[think about it clarte]
georeject: (art2; o:)

[personal profile] georeject 2022-02-11 11:43 pm (UTC)(link)
[clarte is not particularly shy

so they nod]


I suppose that works...

[though they're wearing gloves hope itsuki won't be disappointed]
nightchild: (is this the face of a liar)

[personal profile] nightchild 2022-02-11 11:48 pm (UTC)(link)
[game mission: turn clarte into a slut,

Itsuki pauses, then he laughs. AND HOLDS CLARTE'S HAND!!! with his own gloveless ones,]


Alright, then. This is such a funny dream. [itsuki?] So what's your name?
georeject: (f; 5.)

[personal profile] georeject 2022-02-11 11:51 pm (UTC)(link)
[good luck with that]

I'm afraid this isn't a dream you're going to wake up from, unless we're dreaming the same dream... but my name is Clarte.
nightchild: (i'm too picky not to notice this)

[personal profile] nightchild 2022-02-12 12:18 am (UTC)(link)
Clarte, huh? I'm Itsuki.

[clarte's gonna have to be the one to start walking first because Itsuki is perfectly happy with standing in one place, holding hands]

Can you fly? People do a lot of flying in dreams.
georeject: (sprite; thinking.)

[personal profile] georeject 2022-02-12 12:23 am (UTC)(link)
[...

clarte will try taking a step? please walk, itsuki.]


Normally, I can... but for whatever reason, not here.
nightchild: (?? why do my icons look different)

[personal profile] nightchild 2022-02-12 02:38 am (UTC)(link)
[does he have to... T_T but he does indeed take a step]

Normally? [excuse me??] Wait, so you've always had wings?
georeject: (art2; neutral.)

[personal profile] georeject 2022-02-12 02:41 am (UTC)(link)
In a manner of speaking...?
nightchild: (sweats)

[personal profile] nightchild 2022-02-12 02:46 am (UTC)(link)
That just makes me more curious... You sure are interesting, Te-kun.
georeject: (f; 5.)

[personal profile] georeject 2022-02-12 02:51 am (UTC)(link)
[oh a nickname... does that mean they're friends now]

Am I? The wings really aren't that interesting once you get used to them.
nightchild: (is this the face of a liar)

[personal profile] nightchild 2022-02-12 03:02 am (UTC)(link)
[m-maybe]

No way, even if you get used to it, it's not the same for everyone else, right? I bet all the girls go wild for them.

[im tired of itsuki]
georeject: (sprite; neutral.)

[personal profile] georeject 2022-02-12 03:03 am (UTC)(link)
Um... I can't say there's ever been much of a response...
nightchild: (LIKE THEY'RE DIFFERENT COLORS??)

[personal profile] nightchild 2022-02-12 03:11 am (UTC)(link)
-- What, really?! You're sure?

[his voice is so loud right now]
georeject: (sprite; thinking.)

[personal profile] georeject 2022-02-12 03:19 am (UTC)(link)
[itsuki?]

Is it that surprising...? Then again, I can't say I paid much attention.
nightchild: (HAH????)

[personal profile] nightchild 2022-02-12 03:38 am (UTC)(link)
Why not? Are you the shy type? But you don't seem like it?
georeject: (art2; o:)

[personal profile] georeject 2022-02-12 03:40 am (UTC)(link)
... I'm starting to lose track of this conversation.
nightchild: (?? ???)

[personal profile] nightchild 2022-02-12 04:18 am (UTC)(link)
Do you never pay attention when girls go up to you and say they like you?!

[itsuki lost track of this convo too]
georeject: (sprite; neutral.)

[personal profile] georeject 2022-02-12 04:20 am (UTC)(link)
That's never happened?
nightchild: (fckin judges)

[personal profile] nightchild 2022-02-12 05:20 am (UTC)(link)
Would you notice it if they did...
georeject: (sprite; thinking.)

[personal profile] georeject 2022-02-12 07:41 pm (UTC)(link)
... I think so?
nightchild: (im laughing but also crying inside prob)

[personal profile] nightchild 2022-02-12 07:49 pm (UTC)(link)
[he cheers up at this answer? then he swings Clarte's hand a little,]

As long as it's not a no! There's hope for you yet.
georeject: (sprite; surprised.)

[personal profile] georeject 2022-02-12 07:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Um... thank you? [????? what is going on] I hope there's hope for you as well...?
nightchild: (when will i use this: never)

[personal profile] nightchild 2022-02-13 02:10 am (UTC)(link)
Hehe, thanks, Te-kun. Hearing that makes me feel warmer already.

[clarte why are you enabling slut behavior]
georeject: (sprite; thinking.)

[personal profile] georeject 2022-02-13 02:10 am (UTC)(link)
[THEY TRULY HAVE LOST SIGHT OF THIS CONVO]

Well, glad to assist.
