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!

fuckfuckfuckfuck]
Ei....ther....
no subject
...Yes?
[Sweating intensifies. And then, with fullass confidence:]
People in the countryside know a lot of onmyou.
no subject
Do they!
Are you from the countryside?
[hE'S JUST GONNA BAIL ON THE ONMYOU CONVERSATION IT'S TOO PRECARIOUS]
no subject
Nope! Not really, anyway. I live in the mountains, so there's still not a lot of people nearby or anything.
no subject
[supposedly]
Do you enjoy it there? The sights must be beautiful.
no subject
Yeah, it's pretty nice. I like the city a lot better, to be honest! [OF COURSE HE DOES his shopping malls...] But it's not bad to have a place with a lot of nature nearby. It's kinda soothing, y'know?
[Their citadel... surrounded by nature... and one single corner store perhaps.......]
no subject
I think I prefer the places with a lot of people, too. Or the sea - I don't think I like any place as much as I like the sea.
[even tho REDACTED]
no subject
[THEY'RE JUST HAVING THIS CONVERSATION IN THIS CREEPY SHRINE completely ignoring whatever is behind door number 1.]
no subject
if anything this is probably the most at home area for buzen, a sword, who is sadly the only one of his kind here]
Hm.... It was really beautiful. Quiet, too. It was pretty unforgettable as a whole.
no subject
Mm, sounds really nice. I guess even when you like being around people and busy places, it's still good to have a calm place to retreat to, yeah?
no subject
Yeah, exactly that. And I think the people important to me... they prefer places like that too, where they get to have time with their thoughts.
So if they enjoy it, then I do too.
no subject
Wooow, what kinda super earnest answer is that? That's cute! [Buzen is going to rile his bully streak at this rate... What an unforeseen twist.]
Hey, what's your name, anyway? I'm Kashuu.
no subject
[he wasn't expecting that, but he's laughing]
I'm Buzen! It's nice to meet you, Kashuu. [ . . . hmmm, he wonders if...? well, he's not sure, so he'll leave it for now. it'd be more risky to say something if it isn't!]
I just feel like it's natural - to want to see the people in your life happy.
no subject
Well, duh. Tons of people feel that way! Most just don't say it so bluntly, see? [So many people are shades of tsuntsun, himself included...] That's why it's cute.
no subject
but he'll laugh anyway and say terribly sincere:]
Then I hope that you end up very happy too, Shuu-kun. Let me know if I can help out with that in any way.
no subject
[Kiyo-kun is definitely cuter but he can't DOXX HIS NAME in case someone RECOGNIZES HIM, HISTORICALLY!! Anyway, he'll move on from that because wow this mans is out here being so seemingly genuinely Ready To Help.]
You're a pretty earnest guy in general, aren't you? I think just focusing on figuring out how to get outta here would be the number one thing that could make me happy right now, though. I was in the middle of some real important stuff!
[His idol show...]
no subject
anyway buzen is going to look at kashuu's clothes
and tilt his head]
What were you... doing?
[what is he looking at there's so many layers. the handskirts.]
no subject
