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!

Oh, that's unfortunate. Well, not everyone can get along...

It'd be a lot easier if they did. Especially if he didn't start fights all the time.
georeject: (sprite; thinking.)

[personal profile] georeject 2022-02-12 02:43 am (UTC)(link)
Oh dear. Out of genuine vitriol?
9mon: (072)

[personal profile] 9mon 2022-02-12 02:45 am (UTC)(link)
Hmmm.... I think it's just 'cause that guy hates losing. And since he lost to my big bro he's being a big baby about it.

But they can work together okay if they gotta.
georeject: (f; 5.)

[personal profile] georeject 2022-02-12 02:56 am (UTC)(link)
Ah, the competitive sort. Well, hopefully their rivalry can progress into something more supportive. It's good that they can cooperate when it matters, though.
9mon: (073)

[personal profile] 9mon 2022-02-12 02:59 am (UTC)(link)
It'd be super rough if they couldn't. They gotta work together a bunch, 'cause they're in the same theater group.
georeject: (art2; :))

[personal profile] georeject 2022-02-12 03:35 am (UTC)(link)
Well, being competitive can at least produce great results for work.
9mon: (053)

[personal profile] 9mon 2022-02-12 03:37 am (UTC)(link)
Do you have a rival?
georeject: (f; 5.)

[personal profile] georeject 2022-02-12 03:47 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, not me. But I have friends who do.
9mon: (016)

[personal profile] 9mon 2022-02-12 03:48 am (UTC)(link)
Oh? Have you seen any of your friends around here yet?
georeject: (sprite; thinking.)

[personal profile] georeject 2022-02-12 03:52 am (UTC)(link)
Unfortunately, not yet. What about you?
9mon: (045)

[personal profile] 9mon 2022-02-12 03:55 am (UTC)(link)
I saw somebody from my theater troupe. His name is Kazu and he's super nice.
georeject: (art4; smile.)

[personal profile] georeject 2022-02-12 07:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Is that so? That's good—not that it's good for someone else to be trapped here, but it must be reassuring to have a friend.
9mon: (044)

[personal profile] 9mon 2022-02-12 07:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah! Kazu's a reliable friend and teammate.
georeject: (sprite; laugh.)

[personal profile] georeject 2022-02-13 02:23 am (UTC)(link)
I hope to meet him, then. Who knows—depending on how long we're away for, maybe you'll have to get in some acting practice with him while we're here.
9mon: (032)

[personal profile] 9mon 2022-02-13 02:27 am (UTC)(link)
I could use all the practice I can get. Hey, do you wanna join us?
georeject: (sprite; surprised.)

[personal profile] georeject 2022-02-13 08:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Me? I can't say I have any skill in acting...
9mon: (056)

[personal profile] 9mon 2022-02-13 08:32 pm (UTC)(link)
It's okay! I didn't either.
georeject: (f; 5.)

[personal profile] georeject 2022-02-13 08:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Well... I can't say becoming an actor is in my future plans, but if you need an extra pair of hands, I'd be happy to assist.
9mon: (064)

[personal profile] 9mon 2022-02-13 08:44 pm (UTC)(link)
You never know when it might come in handy.

Thanks, a bunch.
