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!

It's not vandalism if no one owns it.

[ is that how it works. ]
georeject: (sprite; thinking.)

[personal profile] georeject 2022-02-12 01:54 am (UTC)(link)
... Can't argue with that...
theampirequeen: (and doesn't even look her in the eyes)

[personal profile] theampirequeen 2022-02-12 03:46 am (UTC)(link)
See? So let's go break stuff!

[ this is not why they are going on this quest. ]
georeject: (art2; :))

[personal profile] georeject 2022-02-12 03:49 am (UTC)(link)
I think you might've lost sight of the original goal... but very well.
theampirequeen: (right where you left it)

[personal profile] theampirequeen 2022-02-12 03:55 am (UTC)(link)
Have I? We're breaking stuff so we can break more stuff. In this case, a weird creepy haunted temple door. Right?
georeject: (sprite; thinking.)

[personal profile] georeject 2022-02-12 03:59 am (UTC)(link)
... When you put it like that, I have to admit you're right.
theampirequeen: (honestly)

[personal profile] theampirequeen 2022-02-12 04:05 am (UTC)(link)
Of course I'm right. I know a thing or two about breaking stuff.
georeject: (sprite; laugh.)

[personal profile] georeject 2022-02-12 04:09 am (UTC)(link)
Heh. Then I hope your expertise comes in handy now.
theampirequeen: (im sorry that i exist)

[personal profile] theampirequeen 2022-02-12 04:15 am (UTC)(link)
Heh. Trust me, in a place like this, you gotta break stuff and beat people up. Always.
georeject: (sprite; thinking.)

[personal profile] georeject 2022-02-12 04:18 am (UTC)(link)
I can't say I'm looking to beat people up if I don't have to...
theampirequeen: (anything to you)

[personal profile] theampirequeen 2022-02-12 04:23 am (UTC)(link)
You gotta at least beat up whoever took our stuff though.
georeject: (art2; o:)

[personal profile] georeject 2022-02-12 04:26 am (UTC)(link)
I'd like to hear out their reasoning first.
theampirequeen: (i bought them)

[personal profile] theampirequeen 2022-02-12 04:32 am (UTC)(link)
Pfft. Why? They took our stuff and threw us in this weird grey place. There's not gonna be a good reason for it.
georeject: (portrait; eyes closed.)

[personal profile] georeject 2022-02-12 07:30 pm (UTC)(link)
I'd like to hear them out, all the same.
theampirequeen: (i don't really care about your stupid)

[personal profile] theampirequeen 2022-02-12 08:35 pm (UTC)(link)
[ blows a raspberry ]
georeject: (as.)

[personal profile] georeject 2022-02-12 08:38 pm (UTC)(link)
[they smile wryly.]

If their reasoning is unsatisfactory, you can beat them up after.
theampirequeen: (we were getting closer)

[personal profile] theampirequeen 2022-02-12 08:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Ughhh, fine. You get two minutes and then I spill their guts though.
georeject: (portrait; smile.)

[personal profile] georeject 2022-02-12 08:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Haha... I'll try to work fast, in that case.
theampirequeen: (i shouldnt have to prove)

[personal profile] theampirequeen 2022-02-12 09:50 pm (UTC)(link)
If they do that thing where they fuss around and say it's good reasons but they can't tell us yet, I'm still spilling their guts.
georeject: (sprite; thinking.)

[personal profile] georeject 2022-02-12 09:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Hopefully it doesn't come to that... although violence is certainly a good incentive to make people talk, sometimes.
theampirequeen: (but i shouldnt have to be the one)

[personal profile] theampirequeen 2022-02-12 09:59 pm (UTC)(link)
It's always a good incentive.
georeject: (portrait; smile.)

[personal profile] georeject 2022-02-13 12:35 am (UTC)(link)
Spoken like an expert.
