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
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!

but he'll grin at that]
Sounds good to me! Another set of eyes will only make things go even better.
What's your name, friend? I'm Buzen.
no subject
[ what about having a thought. Anyway, Aymeric will stride alongside Buzen then. ]
Aymeric de Borel. 'Tis a pleasure to meet your acquaintance, Ser Buzen.
no subject
Ahaha! Pleasure's all mine but - just 'Buzen' is fine, you know?
And I'm sorry if I take a bit to figure out how to pronounce your name, Meric-san. [or he'll just give up i'm sorry] I'm learning a lot of new language today!
no subject
[ This is fine, though Aymeric does tilt his head at his new shortened name. Isn't against it, though. ]
Take your time and do ask if you would like assistance. Aymeric fortunately is a name that flows... Unlike some my ears had the honor of hearing. "Meric" is perfectly fine lest you fumble with a tied tongue.

he grins!]
Haha, if you're alright with it, then you've got my gratitude.
But I don't wanna lose track of what you stopped me for! Did you need help with something, Meric-san?
no subject
I had wanted to ask if you know anything about the nature of your summoning.
