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!

[ this is awful bc she's happy that he seems to be happy!! what a friendly guy!! she shows no discomfort at his closeness, huddling in toward him as she brings her hands up to her mouth. ]

N-no kidding... if I'd've known I'd be sh-showing up in a place like this, I would've packed appropriately!
nightchild: (the most important icon ever)

[this feedback loop of miscommunication and happiness]

Let's see if we can find something warmer for you. [in this DESOLATE WASTELAND] But for now...

[itsuki will plop his jacket around her shoulders.]

There. How's that?
blamed: (i see your true colors)

[ JACKET... she opts to wear it like a cape for now, rather than sticking her arms through the sleeves. look how chipper she is!! ]

Mm, better! Thank you—[ she pauses for a second, then gasps ] Oh, how rude of me, I haven't even introduced myself! I'm Vanille. And you are?
nightchild: (aYYYY)

[batman vanille...]

It's fine, it's fine. It's not possible for cute girls to be rude. [except hot pants and marceline] I'm Itsuki Kagami. Nice to meet you, Vanille-chan.
blamed: (sometimes you only get)

[personal profile] blamed 2022-02-12 04:27 am (UTC)(link)
[ another gasp... this time more suspicious!! (it's very obvious she's joking) ]

Is that why you offered to help me, huh? Because you think I'm cute?

nightchild: (is this the face of a liar)

[personal profile] nightchild 2022-02-12 05:22 am (UTC)(link)
And because you looked cold.

[kawinks....]

I'm good at noticing a lot of things.
blamed: (show me a smile then)

[personal profile] blamed 2022-02-12 06:38 am (UTC)(link)
Oh? [ grins playfully ] Well, don't be shy— what else have you noticed, then? About me, other people, this place...
nightchild: (ok itsuki's also to blame but)

LOOK,,,,

That you must be pretty strong, especially mentally. This kind of place would freak out the toughest people I know, but you seem to be handling it a lot better than they would.

[but he doesn't know she's a lesbian which is the most important thing]

As for this place... I've noticed that it's definitely not anywhere I've ever been, though some of it looks familiar -- like that shrine across the bridge.
blamed: (echoes in the future)

[personal profile] blamed 2022-02-12 08:15 am (UTC)(link)
[ to his analysis of her, she simply tilts her head coyly and laughs a little, switching her grasp to his arm so they can sort of face each other while they talk. ]

You mean that place of worship? Seems like you've got an advantage over me... I'm feeling pretty out of my element with all of these places.
nightchild: (h e h)

[personal profile] nightchild 2022-02-13 01:42 am (UTC)(link)
[Vanille can do whatever she wants, she can manhandle him all day]

Yeah, it looks a lot like shrines back home, except creepy. 'Gray and abandoned' must be the running theme for this place.
blamed: (so don't be afraid)

[personal profile] blamed 2022-02-13 01:55 am (UTC)(link)
It's a little unnerving if you ask me... seeing a place completely devoid of color like this just feels wrong, you know?
