WEEKEND ZERO: OVERFLOW

WOW


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!

Exactly!

So Tsuru-san's a friend of yours, huh? He must be pretty funny if he could pull off something like that!
hasteful: (➛ run away baby)

He's very funny! He's a great leader too - he throws a lot at us but I don't think it's anyway that we can't handle.

[he laughs]

I'm already finding myself looking for his leadership.
dms: (do you believe in magic)

I totally get it. It's weird when your peeps aren't here with you, isn't it?

Hey, when we get out of here, I want to meet your friend!
hasteful: (➛ don't say no; no)

[personal profile] hasteful 2022-02-12 11:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Really weird!

But of course! Tsuru-san's perfectly friendly. Kuri-san's the one that takes some warming up to get to know.

[but he's still perfectly fond. gross.]

A Troupe means... there's probably more of you, right? Are there others you miss?
dms: (xoxo)

[personal profile] dms 2022-02-13 02:15 am (UTC)(link)
They both sound great! And I bet Kuri-san is a total cutie, too! Some people just hide it really well, you know?

[ tsuns are great! ]

Yep yep! Mankai Company has four troupes, so there's a ton of us back home. We've got some people like your Kuri, too, so you'd probably get along great with everyone.
hasteful: (➛ but i got what i need)

[personal profile] hasteful 2022-02-13 03:44 am (UTC)(link)
Hah! I'd say that's right. Kuri-san's more cool than cute, but he's definitely an endearing type of person.

[somewhere out there, ookurikara breaks out into hives]

Do you think? Ah well, I enjoy getting along with others - though sometimes it's more of a work in progress. You're really easy to talk to, though.
dms: (hearts ♡)

[personal profile] dms 2022-02-13 04:03 am (UTC)(link)
He can be both! Maybe he's got a hidden cute side you don't know about. Gap moe!

[ absolutely hateful making me talk about my own character like this thanks ]

Aw, thanksies! [ yeah. ] Getting along with other people is always something to work on. But you're doing great, if you ask me!
