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!

A. hi everyone

[Itsuki runs a hand through his loose hair (it's not in a bun like his icons, it's just down to his shoulders), then he wraps his arms around himself and shivers! dramatically!]

It's so cold...! What do you say -- should we huddle together for warmth?

[hello stranger, something something two birds one stone something something,]

B. temple

[Itsuki's sitting on the bridge, just letting his legs dangle to the sweet, sweet sound of banging (NOT THE SEXY KIND) echoing from the temple beyond.]

I like the atmosphere they've got going here. Wouldn't be my first choice, but I gotta give credit where credit's due.

wildcard

[picks up everyone and ratshakes y'all]

a.

[georeject]

[why is itsuki immediately being a slut, yaywon.

anyway]

Haha... the idea doesn't sound too bad, but perhaps that's better left for later. It'd be hard to look around while doing that.

[nightchild]

[THIS IS SO MEAN... IT COULD BE PLATONIC!!!!! he makes a little face at the mention of 'looking around', but then he brightens again.]

Well, [itsuki says as he looks at clarte's everything, wings.... hair... anime....] we could always hold hands instead. That would make it easier.

[think about it clarte]

a

[blamed]

D-don't mind if I do!

[ hewwo itsuki you now have a very cold and shivering vanille clinging to u ]

1/2

[nightchild]

[VANILLE?????????????????????????]

[nightchild]

[i hate this im losing my mind, look at how happy itsuki is, he doesn't even deserve this. he'll slide an arm around her like he's been doing this all his life (maybe he has)]

There, there. [im gonna throw up] You're not exactly dressed for this kind of weather, huh?

[NEITHER IS ITSUKI, but like look at vanille's clothes]

a

[countermeasures]

Hmm... I don't think I'm quite that cold yet.

[


to be fair, she's dressed in Ancient China Layers. so.]

[nightchild]

[so ur saying itsuki still has a chance,]

Yeah? [itsuki so far: wow everyone here is cute, nice] I'm jealous. If I knew I was going to wake up in a super cold town full of cuties, then I'd have worn something nicer.

[warmer, furrier,]

a. hi yaywon

[chevaliered]

[ .... sighs. ]

At least offer to wine and dine someone before you try wiggling onto the bases with them.

hehe hi becks

[nightchild]

[wow..... Itsuki puts one hand on his chest,]

I'm just offering to do a good deed? [bases? excuse me?] Though I guess you'd be the one doing me the favor.

[is crow wearing his sexy fur jacket]

b

[furrier]

[ Garou glares at him, already hating his attitude. ]

Are you an idiot? Where do you think we are?

[nightchild]

[garou is actually right]

Mmm... No idea, but it's still impressive! I love haunted houses.

[haunted city, whatever]

a!

[dms]

Mmmmm... Do you think that will actually work? The fire wasn't even warm - the special effects here are pretty crazy.

[nightchild]

It's gotta be worth a try. [wait] Special effects?

[itsuki has really been standing in one place this entire time]

a...

[slashay]

[Bro he burned the shit out of his hand in his quest for warmth THERE'S NO WAY HE'S TURNING THIS DOWN. HE IMMEDIATELY SLIDES OVER AND LATCHES ONTO ITSUKI'S ARM.]

Oh my god, you're the world's biggest life-saver—!

suplexes you

[nightchild]

[that moment when Itsuki's defenses are down because Kashuu's pretty, he'll wrap an arm around this peanut cashew anyway,]

Hey now, this is a team effort. A 'what's good for you is good for me' kind of thing.

[DID HE WRAP UP HIS BURN? IS IT LIKE OUT THERE? EXPOSED?]

a

[highrisk]

Is that really your first thought, here?

[nightchild]

I can't help it, I'm freezing! And this jacket isn't helping at all.

[he's WHINING now]

a

[theampirequeen]

Haha, what? Creepy.

b

[bestaround]

[ He's just passing through, but... ]

I don't think creepy deserves any credit.

B

[thejkdefense]

[November leans on the bridge]

Then what would be your first choice?

[Something a little more colorful, he hopes. The monochrome atmosphere is a bit depressing]

b.

[godcards]

[ looks at itsuki. looks at their surroundings. ]

Yes, this place looks like it suits you.

a

[hasteful]

[oh!!!!!!!



buzen just moves to shrug off his jacket]

Here - if you're that cold.

[he can give him a hug too but this seems more important]

a

[fleshedout]

[stares him down]




No.

a!

[pura]

[she's just going to pretend she didn't hear that and keep walking.]
