chroma | 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!

[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]

[ why is this a question yaywon. no, he's wearing a burlap sack that says "do not open" on it. ~~yes he's wearing his coat~~ ]

Eh, there's no such thing as a free meal. And I'm not cheap. Maybe go run a few laps and see if that warms you up for less.

[look im just making sure??]

I don't know, I'm not really a 'running' kind of guy. [he'll cup his hands together and blow on them, probably futilely] I'll just get tired and fall asleep, and then next thing I know, my clothes will be missing.

[or he'll be dead]

… Is strip running some new form of athletics I’ve never heard of? Damn. I might’ve been interested in extracurriculars if Thors had that on its sports program.

[ show dem tiddies - crow armbrust, 11k8-something. ]

-- Extracurriwhat?

[he's never been to school crow be nice (?) to him]

[ absolutely not. ]

... Like... when class is done and you're free, except you're not being you get cornered and hounded to do more things at school because it'll "look really good when you graduate if you have some written documentation that you made tea in a room with three people three times a week", or "you smacked a ball around in the courtyard after classes to let people know you're really fit and athletic."

[CROW PLEASE BE NICE TO HIM!!!! he somehow follows along just long enough to get the gist of it,]

That sounds like way too much effort... [he's grimacing,] Hearing all that makes me kinda glad I never went.

[ NEVER. ]

Oh, you could be part of the Go Home club if you wanted. I liked that one. [ ... huh ] Oh man, lucky you. It's fine in some ways but a huge pain in the ass in others.

Yeah? What exactly did you like about it?

[thinking about how crow is tsundere for school]

I got to take some naps, and help create and ride a p-re-tty sweet orbal bike.

[ HEEELLLLL YEAAAAAH. ]

[every word crow says is like incomprehensible, but it must be bc they're the same person that Itsuki can pick up on his vibes]

Bike -- like a bicycle?

[what kind of school is this]

[ terrible. i feel unclean. ]

Like an orbal bike. Runs on orbal tech, so it's not like riding a diddly little bike or having to walk everywhere.

[ fuck yeah orbal tech. why does zemuria have motorbikes and not fucking VACCUUM CLEANERS. ]

[every time u remind me of this i lose my mind]

I hate to admit it, but I've never heard of the word 'orbal' before. [now, orbs?] Where are you from?

[ I'M STILL MAD. ]

No? It's how we power things. Different orbs, different types of energy, different outcome. You can slap them in an ARCUS and use arts with them too.

Zemuria.
