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!

N-no? Why would I want that?

[This guy is obviously like twice his size, Atsushi isn't that stupid.]

[ Okay, well, Garou was about to punch Atsushi's face in but now that he knows he's a wimp, he chills a little. ]

Then don't question my strength. [ Anyway, he gestures at the garbage. ] Are there more?
moonlightbeast: (02)

[personal profile] moonlightbeast 2022-02-12 01:15 am (UTC)(link)
[Don't question his strength, got it. Atsushi just nods at that.]

I, er, maybe at that building?

[He points to one of those hot dog stands, maybe there's some left behind in nasty water or something.

He is. Absolutely going to let Garou eat whatever wants to. Because Atsushi doesn't want to get food poisoning so he's waiting to see if Garou reacts to it or not.

[ Garou's stomach rumbles. Hungy.

He walks over to the hot dog stand without much concern, yanking open the little containers with the condiments, and finding only the one with corn containing something.

He picks up a single kernel. ]


... It's hard.

[Atsushi is following cautiously, he really does not want to get punched today.]

Is that popcorn? If it is, you're supposed to heat it up first to make it soft.
furrier: (m65)

[personal profile] furrier 2022-02-12 02:44 am (UTC)(link)
I know what popcorn is! [ don't mock him?! ] This is just dried out corn.

[ Gross. He flicks it at Atsushi. ]
moonlightbeast: (12)

[personal profile] moonlightbeast 2022-02-12 03:03 am (UTC)(link)
It's not popped yet-

[The kernel bounces off of his forehead.]

hm

[personal profile] furrier 2022-02-12 03:11 am (UTC)(link)
[ snrk

that actually... makes him laugh ]
moonlightbeast: (09)

[personal profile] moonlightbeast 2022-02-12 03:48 am (UTC)(link)
It's really not that funny.
furrier: (m24)

[personal profile] furrier 2022-02-12 03:52 am (UTC)(link)
Speak for yourself.

[ He peels the remains of a sliced red onion off the cart and holds it out. ]

Hungry?
moonlightbeast: (76)

[personal profile] moonlightbeast 2022-02-12 04:00 am (UTC)(link)
Not at all.

[HE SEES THAT ONION IT'S GROSS]

[personal profile] furrier 2022-02-12 04:08 am (UTC)(link)
Oh? So you behave like a sniveling dog, but refuse to eat like one?
moonlightbeast: (53)

[personal profile] moonlightbeast 2022-02-12 04:35 am (UTC)(link)
Dogs don't even eat onions.
furrier: (m62)

[personal profile] furrier 2022-02-12 04:52 am (UTC)(link)
I'm sure they could manage if they were hungry enough.

[ flicks the onion at him ]
moonlightbeast: (15)

[personal profile] moonlightbeast 2022-02-12 05:03 am (UTC)(link)
[Gross, it lands on his shirt. He's going to grimace and brush it off.]

If you're just going to keep being like this then I'm going to walk away.
furrier: (m12)

[personal profile] furrier 2022-02-12 04:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Good. [ He makes claws out of his hands. ] Boo.
moonlightbeast: (227)

[personal profile] moonlightbeast 2022-02-12 05:45 pm (UTC)(link)
[Not scary at all.

But yeah he's walking away.
