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
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!

[A very vague sort of smirk? Maybe?]
Same here. Guess you have something important to get back to?
no subject
[ It's very important. ]
Shall I ask if you have something you must return to, as well?
no subject
[A clench of the fist at the side...and it relaxes.]
Yes, I do. I'm not the type to leave things unfinished.
no subject
[ She glances at the fist. ]
Were you in the middle of some type of battle?
no subject
...Yes. I was.
no subject
Were you winning?
no subject
[...She just looks away at that.]
I had yet to see about that.
no subject
[ Is she wrong? ]
no subject
[She raises an eyebrow.]
You don't know me. [...] But yes. I would think so.
no subject
[ She won't deny that. ]
It's in the way you speak.
no subject
[She seems to muse over that for a moment.]
You seem like a strong lady, yourself.
no subject
no subject
Is that so. That's not his place to say such a thing, I'd think.
no subject
no subject
Eh, I could say that about a lot of people. Men, especially.
no subject
Most men like to think they're better than they actually are.
no subject
no subject
It's hard to stomach.
no subject
Mm. Sometimes you have to step up and take the initiative. Otherwise they'll run around in circles.
no subject
They can get so stuck in their heads they go nowhere. Sometimes, you have to make them think you taking initiative was their idea.
