WEEKEND ZERO: MINGLE

[saturations]

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 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 isn't that weird tbh?]

I'm a human!

[this is a normal thing that normal humans say]

[ktiseos]

Are you, now.

[he's evaluating...]

And you are certain of this?

[he's met one whole creature who called themselves a human and they were a very different size.]

[aitou]

Yes, of course! [s. sweats] There isn't anything un-human about me, right?

[ktiseos]

As a matter of fact, there is.

[...leaving it at that, to see how he answers.]

[aitou]

[OH NO he does his little

twinkle toes jogging in place thing]

Like what?!

[ktiseos]

[one corner of his mouth quirks.]

Oh? Do you truly not realize?

[aitou]

[


stops pitter pattering and sulks]

You're just making it up, there isn't anything... [HE KNOWS A PRANKSTER WHEN HE SEES ONE U BUTT]

[ktiseos]

You really do not know, then.

[hm. well, all right.]

You are of a rather different size-- though I suppose it is not completely out of the question for variants to exist.

[aitou]

Size...? [??? He's a bit short compared to some of the other uchis, maybe, but now he's starting to think this dude is the weird one here...] What do you think humans look like?

[ktiseos]

Similar enough to you, though your clothing is highly unfamiliar... and much smaller. By half, at least.

[aitou]

[


...very gravely:]

I think people have been lying to you about being human...

[ktiseos]

I doubt that. 'Tis likelier that they were an earlier attempt at the concept.

[aitou]

[slowly tilts his head to the left

what]

[ktiseos]

...what, must I explain everything to you?

[aitou]

You're the one saying weird things about humans...

[so yes]

[ktiseos]

All concepts must begin somewhere, but may be found lacking in one manner or another when properly examined, or in their testing phase. Such may have been the case with your kind.

[aitou]

[Oh... this guy is weird like Tomoe... got it...]

Well, I'm definitely human!

[good job sticking to the point, yams]

[ktiseos]

...yes, yes, very well. You may as well be.

[he'll just give him this one. human 2.0.]

[aitou]

[He is SO good at this]

[ktiseos]
