WEEKEND ZERO: OVERFLOW

[saturations]

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 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 watches the pacing!! he can feel the anxiety vibes from here, but it's not like he doesn't understand. would be nice not to question his existence based on his sword not being around,,

not that this stranger would get that feeling]

Buzen.

[yea!]

Maybe save thanking me for when I find something useful to us both? Though I appreciate the sentiment.

[aitou]

[Like the province? Huh, that's a weird name for a human.



Oh wait he should give one too huh. GOOD THING HE HAS AN ALIAS READY]

I'm Okuzawa. [Yeah!!!] I appreciate your help too. If I find anything helpful, I'll tell you.

[1/2]

[hasteful]

[you know what

buzen thought kashuu was an interesting name because he's heard of kashuu kiyomitsu and if he met yamatonokami yasusada he would've been able to put two and two together since they're partner swords but at this current moment he's meeting okuzawa the shinsengumi member so guess not]

[hasteful]

Sounds good, Okkun! [shortens into a full nickname] I'm glad we're able to work together.

Even if it's a difficult situation, I'd rather find more allies than enemies, you know?

[aitou]

[WE TRIED SO HAAAAAARD AND GOT SO FAAAAAAAAAAR BUT IN THE EEEEEEEEND WE COULDN'T FIND A BRAINCEEEEEEEEEEEELL]

Right! There is one person I know here, but I think it'll go better if we all try to work together.

[this is not necessarily true because sometimes there are too many swords in the kitchen and nothing gets done but the spirit of teamwork is there]

[hasteful]

Oh? That's nice - I'm envious. I wish some of my comrades were here, but I'm glad everyone's been really friendly for the most part.

[this is making me lose my mind]

You and your person best take good care of each other!

[aitou]

[I REALLY EXPECTED BUZEN TO ASK FOR THE NAME AND BRING US LIKE 2% CLOSE TO VICTORY BUT NO

WE JUST HAVE THIS

HELP

Yasusada looks thoughtful for a minute]

...Do you think there could be others around? In those places you couldn't get to?

[hasteful]

[no.]

Hmm... I get a sense that there's more out there, at least.

Do you think there's other places like this - but just barriers between us so we can't get to each other?

[aitou]

It could be like that, right? Ki--er, my companion, he wasn't with me before, but we were both brought here. So maybe yours are here too, but in those places we can't get to yet...

[Honestly he's more hoping that that's where their swords are because he's gonna run out of places to look really fast and then he'll be panicking right along with the rest of them]

[hasteful]

[he's just going to nod.....]

Well, if they're here I'm sure they can handle themselves - but I can't deny I'd like to be closer to them sooner rather than later.

The entire situation is a bit... tough.

[aitou]

[He nods, sympathetic.]

It's difficult to be away from your comrades. [That good old Shinsengumi kizuna] I'm not really used to things like this either, but there are a lot of us here, so it wouldn't be that strange if we found others later.

[He will hold out hope for you, buddy]

[hasteful]

[he just laughs at that]

I'm a little surprised at the number, to be honest. Though I guess I'm not sure what the average number of people kidnapped to a strange foreign world is.

[normally he goes to strange places on purpose!]

[aitou]

[



what would a normal human say to this]

It has to be zero, right?

[close enough]

[hasteful]

.... Close to it...?

[he

he also doesn't know, help]
