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!

[





buzen, thinking really hard:]


Did I already know a vampire...?
theampirequeen: (sorry i dont treat you like youre perfec)

[personal profile] theampirequeen 2022-02-12 07:23 am (UTC)(link)
Did you?

[ that's a great question? ]
hasteful: (➛ shining down on me)

[personal profile] hasteful 2022-02-12 07:25 am (UTC)(link)
Someone who's really important to me fits that description rather well - but I don't think he's...

[????? well now he's not sure]

It'd be amusing if he is. It'd help explain why you and I get along so well! Maybe I just enjoy the company of vampires.
theampirequeen: (anything to you)

[personal profile] theampirequeen 2022-02-12 07:34 am (UTC)(link)
Doubt it. Most vampires are kind of terrible. [ says the self-proclaimed vampire queen? ] So he drinks blood?
hasteful: (➛ no one to be)

[personal profile] hasteful 2022-02-12 07:35 am (UTC)(link)
Eh? But you're not terrible.

[that comes as a surprise]

And neither is he! He has... a type of fascination with it, I suppose.

[matsui is a lot]
theampirequeen: (the underside is lighter)

[personal profile] theampirequeen 2022-02-12 07:37 am (UTC)(link)
That's because I'm better than all vampires. That's why I'm the Queen.

[ hehehes. ]

A fascination? Is he a vampire, or is he just weird about blood?
hasteful: (➛ that i'd like to pursue)

[personal profile] hasteful 2022-02-12 07:39 am (UTC)(link)
The Queen of Vampires.... What makes the other vampires so bad?

[also. this is. hm.]

Hmm.... It's hard to say when I didn't know vampires existed until now. Maybe he's not a vampire, but there's similarities.
theampirequeen: (you'll see how it's faded)

[personal profile] theampirequeen 2022-02-12 07:45 am (UTC)(link)
Mostly they were super annoying. [ this is the most important part, clearly? ] Plus the whole hunting down and killing people thing. All vampires can eat red, they just choose not to for sport.

[ she looks a little interested ]

Vampires aren't the only things that like blood stuff. Maybe he's just got some weird deal without all the garbage.
hasteful: (➛ and my so-called friends)

[personal profile] hasteful 2022-02-12 07:48 am (UTC)(link)
Ah... Rampages like that would make them pretty bad, yeah. [i mean. people also kill people but listen buzen's not gonna bring that up even though he knows it's true]

Weird deal... Maybe something like that. [he still sounds a little fond, and thoughtful]

I don't think he's anywhere close to garbage. I don't think you are either. So I'm glad you've worked past what all the rest of the vampires do.
theampirequeen: (i know you won't change)

[personal profile] theampirequeen 2022-02-12 07:52 am (UTC)(link)
[ dietary reasons is the least valid reason to kill people. don't question her. ]

Yeah, I'm sure your friend is cool and all. You seem like a not garbage guy either, and that means you wouldn't surround yourself with garbage. But I wouldn't worry about him being a vampire without telling you. It's kind of hard to hide. Has he ever been out in the sun at all?
hasteful: (➛ you look so beautiful in this light)

[personal profile] hasteful 2022-02-12 05:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh!

You can't be in the sun?

[



looks up at the grey sky]
theampirequeen: (sorry i don't treat you like a goddess)

[personal profile] theampirequeen 2022-02-12 06:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Nope. I burn up quicker than a marshmallow in a campfire. [ looks at the sky also ] No sun out here now though.
hasteful: (➛ will end up alone)
