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!

Him?

[vedrskogul]

[ That was actually a slip of my part, but you know what, it fits. ]

It.

[classmate]

[ SKADJFAKJDFA ]

It's fine if you hold the weapon close to you. In a sentimental way.

[vedrskogul]

I don't need to be lectured on this topic.

[ EXCUSE YOU LEAVE ME AND MY WEAPON ALONE. ]

I'm not too sure, to be honest.

But I'm not worried about that...

Re: roxana

[disingenuous]

Why's that?

[ It sounds like something to be worried about. ]

Whatever the case, I hope you're all right.

[ Is Marie technically her consciousness now? Or is she back in her body? ]

[classmate]

[ She blinks twice before offering a small smile. ]

It's fine. Honestly. [ It's complicated! She's here. ] What about you, miss? Waking up in this place is shocking enough.

[disingenuous]

If you're sure.

[ But it's still concerning, Marie. ]

I had my moment in private.

Unfortunately that's what I assumed since we were brought here. I only hope that nothing bad comes to us while we're here.

[highrisk]

Right, like whatever happened to... Whoever's blood that is.

[classmate]

[ She nods. ]

... Your name -- Um, my name is Marie Amabuki, so what is yours?

[highrisk]

Nice to meet you, Marie.

[ it's not, we're in hell. ]

Call me Damien.

From the looks of things we might be stuck here, so...

We certainly have time on our side, at least.

[bestaround]

[ He exhales, tiredly. ]

It isn't time I want to be wasting, either way...

[classmate]

Well...

If you look at it like this, we're eliminating possibilities. The more we do that, the more we narrow down areas that won't be helpful to us.

[ She can't question it. She won't question it. She wants to question it. ]

Your name is very unique...

WHY

[fleshedout]

That's what it is.

[THAT'S JUST WHAT IT IS]

[classmate]

Is it an alias?

You have a very impressive memory to do that much.

Even as student president, remembering the class names was hard enough.

[thejkdefense]

[November smiles, flattered, but there's also pride. He does consider himself a pretty sharp person in general and that includes memory!]

I haven't been president of anything. Look at that, we both have our strong points.

[He doesn't mention he's the leader of a team and that's like being a president of something if you squint a little]

[classmate]

[ Don't flatter her. ]

The most I can really do is keep things organized and talk in front of a group of people.

I guess... if you have some difficult news to send out I can at least do that much.

baby girl... 2!

[classmate]

( from here. )

Mm... The banging also startled me, I didn't want to stay long after that. [ So they're both useless. Yay! ] We've heard so much around here, but I haven't really seen anything.

I wonder if all the noise is just... memories of this place?

does that make estinien the daddy.....

[nightchild]

Memories? You mean like... ghosts of the past?

[Itsuki puts a hand on his hip, but he's just doing that so that Marie can grab ahold of him again if she wants to, you know just in case she's scared of ghosts.]

LIKE... THE BABY DADDY OR???????

[classmate]

[ She does grab onto him because I want to. ]

Ghosts don't exist, though!!
