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
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!

... I've been someplace like this before but... I like it when it's more colorful too.
This place may be a little strange - but we can try to see if we can find a brighter place.
no subject
[ Ah, but the thought of a brighter place? She nods eagerly. ] Yes! There.. has to be a place like that somewhere, right?
no subject
[he echoes her wording thoughtfully, but otherwise just smiles and nods back!! he will just mirror her eagerness]
I think so. Or if there isn't, we'll make one. A brighter place with lots of kind people.
[he holds his hand out to her]
I'm Buzen. Shall we go?
no subject
[ There's no hesitation as she takes his hand, smiling more. Maybe it's a reflection of her own good feelings, or maybe she's capable of it because of him. ] That would be nice. Everyone would feel better with a brighter place.
I'm Meteion. I'm happy to have met you, Buzen. [ the good vibes. she squeezes his hand so he knows she's ready to go! ]
no subject
[but he'll smile back when she takes his hand! he'll let their hands swing idly between them as he moves to gently guide her away from creepy abandoned carnival hm]
I'm happy to have met you too, Mete-chan! Let's work hard to find and make a brighter place for everyone. That way no one will have to be lonely or scared.
no subject
[ Oh, hand swinging, how fun! She seems to watch their hands swing and not the creepy dark carnival that seems to only rain there? goodbye clown show ]
I'll be sure to do... my best! [ look at this sheer look of determination. >:( ]
no subject
he doesn't know what that is but he just smiles]
Wow! I've never met an Entelechy before - so you'll have to tell me all about what it's like.
[but now that she's sufficiently distracted and not sad, he's much more content]
Hah! Let's do our best together!! I'll support you in whatever you need, alright? Just call for me and I'll come running.
