intro

[pinkprismstaff]

You don't remember getting knocked out.

That's the best descriptor for the feeling you experience before you wake up. There's a glittering absence of color to your field of vision, and a sensation that you aren't yourself, you aren't anything in particular. Abruptly, unpleasantly, you wake up in a strange, sunny location. Where that is might vary--laying in a sun chair on the pool deck, draped over the skee-ball machine in the arcade, face down in a cart in the laundry room....or just stretched out in the long, long expanse of sand surrounding the island.

There doesn't seem to be anyone else here, aside from the others who have woken up and have as little clue where they might be as you do. It's a silent, empty island filled with a lot of questions and few clear answers. What you can conclude are a few things: that you don't get hungry or tired, that any wounds you have don't seem to either heal or worsen, and leaving the island doesn't seem to be possible.

Maybe it would be good to meet with the others who have woken up?

[ It's a teenage girl with a short bob of blonde hair! ]

...I'm Misuzu.

[oceanicbutterfly]

[--oh no, she's cute.]

[wingtied]

[ Correct. ]

[oceanicbutterfly]

[...anyway, business.]

I'm Karen. [We're using first names, apparently.] Are you the one who brought us here, Misuzu-san?

[kurohato]

[The 'monster' has turned back into a normal coat.]

...

How much do you know of what is going on?

[wingtied]

[ ... ]

Did you guys just wake up here?

[kurohato]

Yes. We woke up here with no idea as to what is going on. The world is open but limited - we cannot go into the woods, for instance.

Naturally, I assumed this was the work of an enemy. Perhaps President Reagan, as Robin speculated.

[reresurrected]

[The vibes are chill! And maybe just a tiny bit flirty because Baldr has no off switch, but. His smile is a genuine one.]

Misuzu-san... a lovely name for a lovely young lady. You'll have to forgive us being a bit unsettled, but surely you understand why. Were you brought here like the rest of us?

[shoveltalks]

( baldr's the only one she trusts in a chaos situation /hj )

[reresurrected]

[His Mom Friend powers are strong...!]

[wingtied]

[ No!! She doesn't know how to handle even mild flirting!! This is beyond her!! ]

Um--thank you.

[ clearing her throat. ]

I woke up inside the crane game a while ago. I think it's been...about six months, now? It's hard to keep track of time.

[reresurrected]

[RIP Misuzu...]

... you've been here all by yourself this entire time?

[THAT'S. CONCERNING. And also kind of horrible?]

[compendiem]

[ Karen's right ]

Hello, Misuzu. I'm Minato.

[wingtied]

Hi...Minato-san.

[ discretely pointing at Akutagawa ]

Who's that? Why is he so mad?

[compendiem]

That is...

[ ... ]

A friend. [ NOT LOOKING AT HIM ]

We're all a bit scared... fear makes it easy to anger. Sorry you bore the brunt of it.

[chemicalromance]

[All this screaming... At least it's attracted this 6'1" girl]

Hello? [Oh.] "Misuzu"... That's a beautiful name.

[wingtied]

[ YOU ARE AN ENTIRE FOOT TALLER THAN HER, HELLO ]

Th-thank you! It's spelled with the characters for "beautiful bell"!

[chemicalromance]

[She's a tol one]

I... think I understand. [As much as she can.] My name is Eleanor.

[shoveltalks]

( between the yelling through the door and being in the crane game... this girl? yuki coded. good lord.

it makes kurumi want to protect her. )

Hi, Misuzu-chan~! I'm Kurumi. Did you see anything strange today? Like... about when we got here?

[wingtied]

No. I've been in the office all morning. I fell asleep here, last night...I thought I heard something, so I got up to see.

[ and then akutagawa ]

[shoveltalks]

Mm... yeah, that's fair. It looks like it could get boring pretty fast... But hey! We're all here now!

[prime_spacetime]

[.... so yeah Sonic walks past all this drama, chewing on a chili dog he scrounged up in the kitchens. He pauses, looking at all the drama and the new human.

Huh. Whatever.

Keeps walking]

[ghostinmichelle]

...Someone please tell me a three-foot blue tanuki didn't just walk past us eating a hot dog.

[photoning]

Was that the "little man" Akutagawa met???

[wingtied]

A weird dog!

[ chance that misuzu has seen a hedgehog before: low ]
