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!

[ perfectly balanced, as all things goth/pink girlfriends should be ]

Chyeah. If there's puzzle stuff, I'll just throw it Bonnie's way. She'll get a kick out of using that big brain of hers.

[slashay]

So she's a pretty smart one, huh? Good! I feel a lot better now, knowing there's someone we can trust to solve the complicated stuff.

[DON'T JUST SHOVE THINGS OFF ON A STRANGER.]

[theampirequeen]

Yeah! She loves all that nerd stuff. It'll be fine.

[ don't call her a nerd when you're planning to pawn off puzzles on her.... ]

[slashay]

Good, good! We've got some good bases covered, then. Fighting, puzzles, logic stuff, people to stick their hands in dirty, nasty messes...

[WHAT A SPREAD.]

[theampirequeen]

Who's putting their hands in messes?

[ WHAT A SPREAD who is it ]

[slashay]

[(pb voice) yeah that's what finn and marceline are for

But Kashuu's nice enough to not doxx so:]

Yasusada's pretty good with that stuff.

[theampirequeen]

[ no she's asking because she absolutely does not care about touching gross stuff. she thinks it's funny. ]

Oh, you guys know each other?

[slashay]

[She's going to save them if they ever have to touch anything nasty as a group...]

That guy? Yeah, we've known each other for ages. We're kinda like partners? I'm way cuter, though.

[theampirequeen]

Hahaha, whaaat. Is that a serious argument you guys have?

[slashay]

Not really. It'd be serious if he was serious competition.

[Why is he like this.]

[theampirequeen]

Pfftahahaha!

[ well. it makes her laugh, so it's fine ]

Ice cold. Do you think he's that ugly, or is it that you think you're just that cute?

[slashay]

[IS IT FINE. He immediately gives Marceline like +30 points for enjoying his shade-throwing, though...]

Oh, no! He's cute in his stupid way. But I totally outclass him, for sure.

[theampirequeen]

[ LAUGHING AGAIN please stop letting her be mean to people ]

So he's cute in a like, stupid pet way?

[slashay]

[No way, anyone who bullies Yasusada is in his golden book.]

Oh my god! Yeah, that's the perfect way to describe it! He's like a little alley cat or something!

[theampirequeen]

Pfffthaahaha! That makes it sound like he's mangy or something. A little scrappy mangy kitty.

[slashay]

Just watch him for a while and you'll see how spot-on that comparison is!

[He says this but Yasusada is more like a pomeranian and he's more like the scrappy mangy kitty.]

[theampirequeen]

Oh, I'll definitely be watching for that. [ because it'd be funny. ] Better to be cute-stupid than ugly-stupid though. So he's got that going for him!

[slashay]

Totally. I wouldn't associate with him at all if he wasn't at least cute! That's about all he's got going for him.

[THIS PUBLIC YAMS ROAST.]

[theampirequeen]

Hahahaha. [ it is so public. they are so terrible. ] Do you judge everyone you hang out with by their cuteness levels, or just the dumb ones?

[slashay]

[In this moment, a stupid catty buttheads friendship was formed.]

Oh, everyone. [SAID SO CASUALLY.] But I have great taste in cute things, so pretty much everyone I like has some cute charm point!

[theampirequeen]

That's hilarious. [ just. genuinely. she thinks that's so funny. ] Oh, man, you gotta rank everyone here by cute points once you know 'em a little better. I wanna know your opinion.

[slashay]

Oh! That's such a good idea, oh my god. Rank 'em with me!

[They can just do their own episode of Rank King.]

[theampirequeen]

Hmmm, I dunno about ranking them on their cuteness level, but I can always rank them on how fun they are. That way, we've got all the important bases covered.

[slashay]

That's good, too! And maybe we can add some extra notes just to keep track of the guys who'll take over with puzzles.

[This is going to be a weird chart but listen LISTEN. The second they get their hands on some permanent pen and paper, he is running to Marceline to make this happen.]

[theampirequeen]

So we judge them on how nerdy they are too?

[ she is completely fine with them ]

So... cute, nerdy, fun ... what else? Four options makes for the best kind of chart.
