WEEK ZERO: INTRO MINGLE





POPULATION: 37



There's the soft, chiming ding of an elevator as you slowly grow conscious. You remember the sound of a voice whispering in your ear, and then a very gentle, easy darkness as you fell asleep.

Then the elevator jolts, and you promptly ram into some of the thirty or so other people also waking up from their nap. Time to trample people on your way out! Be careful not to rip your flattering outfit with light up furry ears of an animal of your choice. On this elevator there are a total of 10 buttons and they're all lit up! But they don't work. A shame. The elevator doesn't go anywhere else.

In any case, once you exit the elevator, you'll find that you have a decently wide area to explore. There doesn't seem to be any sort of exit to the outside world, but that's okay. You didn't want to leave without what you came for, right? Besides, it's wonderful here: the temperature is perfect, every surface is as soft as clouds, and the atmosphere is so, so inviting. The base itself is low-lit in fluorescent neon colors which shift and pulse over time, and there's a soft, reassuring humming sound under your feet. It would be comforting if you didn't feel like you were being watched every time you walk along the hallways.

But hey, don't worry about that! Maybe you should be more concerned with the phone in your pocket! The phones have a few functions, as well as a low pixel camera. Pictures are in black and white, so no brightly colored selfies for you. Oh, and while you're taking those selfies, you might notice the symbol of your Avatar tattooed and glowing faintly on the back of your hand. Hope you're fine with impromptu body mods.

Eventually during your wandering, you'll find your room with roommates included! On the floor of your room, there is a big gift box with your name on it. Upon opening it, you will be absolutely obliterated with glittery confetti. But once you manage to get past that, the gift box contains the following:

✦ your item from home
✦ a pair of boxer-briefs labeled "ball hammock"
✦ a stress ball that looks suspiciously like a boob
✦ a rainbow bath bomb
✦ a Polaroid camera with 10 instant film
✦ a frozen steak in a vacuum-sealed pouch
✦ a blue and pink dual flashlight; one end has a normal white bulb, and one end has a blacklight bulb
✦ a tiny crown

Welcome to your new home. Take some time to look around, talk to your fellow indulgers. All of you can see each other's symbols on the back of your hands - maybe it'll strike up a conversation. After all, there's no better way to get to know each other than talking about your sins on the first date!

Oh... you mean, like in a performance.

In which case, the 'scene' is the two of us speaking to each other now, is it?

[personal profile] sistocracy 2021-02-06 07:16 am (UTC)(link)
And... what kind of scene do you suppose this is?
gamerbrain: (pic#14604220)

[personal profile] gamerbrain 2021-02-06 07:18 am (UTC)(link)
Generic prologue. It's for character introduction, before the story really starts. Most people will fast-forward through it in future re-plays.

[personal profile] sistocracy 2021-02-06 10:12 am (UTC)(link)
Oh. Well.

[No, that didn't make very much sense.]

Introductions... So I suppose this is where I ought to ask your name?
gamerbrain: (pic#14604277)

[personal profile] gamerbrain 2021-02-06 07:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Sure. I'm Aoi.

[ and she should definitely ask for her name in return but? doesn't? sorry that she's like this. ]
sistocracy: (pic#14650211)

[personal profile] sistocracy 2021-02-07 12:43 am (UTC)(link)
Aoi, then.

[...okay, if she won't ask,]

My name is Lenore.

What brings a pretty lady like you here?

[ ........ aoi ]
sistocracy: (pic#14650334)

[personal profile] sistocracy 2021-02-07 03:02 am (UTC)(link)
Hm?

Are you flirting with me?
gamerbrain: (pic#14604243)

[personal profile] gamerbrain 2021-02-07 03:04 am (UTC)(link)
Yep.

[ well okay then ]
sistocracy: (pic#14604908)

[personal profile] sistocracy 2021-02-07 04:19 am (UTC)(link)
Well. [yeah, she needs to take a second to process that.] I'm flattered. I've never had a woman come on to me so directly.

... A little enthusiasm would be nice, though.

Aoi just isn't as used to being with older women.

[ ?? i hate aoi?? ]
sistocracy: (pic#14604930)

[personal profile] sistocracy 2021-02-07 04:50 am (UTC)(link)
I beg your pardon?

[aoi why]

[personal profile] gamerbrain 2021-02-07 10:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Aoi doesn't get put into many girls love storylines.
