Intro log: Welcome to The Resort!


INTRO LOG

Before you even open your eyes, you can tell something is not right. It's cold. Not quite unbearably so, but cold enough that you can take notice of it. And as soon as you open your eyes, you will be able to see why it's so cold: you're in the middle of a snowy forest, with only a single two-lane road cutting through the thick trees.

Unfortunately, you seem to be without transportation. Fortunately, you are wearing warm clothes and snow gear, so freezing isn't an immediate problem. But without transportation, you're in for a long walk ahead of you.

There are others around as well. Other people, just as lost and confused as you are. Everyone seems to be lacking any memory that might explain why everyone is here. As far as anyone knows, all of you were just ripped out of your previous lives and dumped here on this snowy road, wearing snow gear and having any items that are important to you already on hand. And for some of you, you even have a new power, one that you somehow instantly know how to use...

Two ways to go: forward and back. Despite having no indication of which way is the 'right' way, you feel drawn towards one direction in particular. Going 'back' is possible, but you get the feeling that you will be even more lost if you try. And given that you have no food or water on you, it's best to keep moving forward.

So, are you ready to walk? Because you have a long road ahead of you.



((Welcome to The Resort! Your characters will have any objects or animals with them that they should have given their canon point, but are dressed in cold weather clothing.

This prompt is just the first part of the intro log. New top-levels will go up over the course of the weekend as everyone progresses from 'where the hell am I?' to the resort proper, and to getting settled in. For now, just start with this prompt. We'll link further updates here for easy access.))


jumpedtheshark: Uwaaah! (Shock)

S-snake!?

[Another cosplayer!? Or... maybe cosplayer based on her other experiences. Point is. Holy shit that's a legit Solid Snake cosplayer(?) on a snowmobile and she can fangirl later, because THAT SURE IS A SNOWMOBILE!]
tacticalespionageaction: (just fuck of)

[personal profile] tacticalespionageaction 2018-11-25 12:05 am (UTC)(link)
[Snake looks up with a disgruntled grunt..le at the kid. She doesn't look like the kind of person to recognize him.]

Who's asking?
jumpedtheshark: Sole Sane Girl (Weirded Out)

[personal profile] jumpedtheshark 2018-11-25 12:49 am (UTC)(link)
Shirogane Tsumugi. Ultimate Cosplayer.

[Wow this is actually sort of intimidating.]
tacticalespionageaction: (hhrrrmmmmm)

[personal profile] tacticalespionageaction 2018-11-25 12:49 am (UTC)(link)
...Ultimate cosplayer?

[He knows what one of those two words means and together, not so much.]
jumpedtheshark: Finger up and talking (Adjust Glasses)

[personal profile] jumpedtheshark 2018-11-25 01:06 am (UTC)(link)
I'm recognized as the best at what I do. Cosplay. The art of becoming a perfect replica of a fictional character and bringing them to life!

[While there's clear passion and enthusiasm in her words, Tsumugi is also subtly trying to looking for any flash of recognition or hint of Snake understanding what the word cosplay means. Tsumugi is excellent at hiding what she's doing and it'd be hard for most people to tell if you're not looking for it, but... it's Solid Snake. He can probably notice.]

I know.... it's hard to believe someone as plain as me is capable of something like that, right?
tacticalespionageaction: (stop smoking we love you)

[personal profile] tacticalespionageaction 2018-11-25 01:31 am (UTC)(link)
[Otacon's pretty plain, and that man made a nuclear war mecha, so.

There's no recognition at cosplay, but all this talk of fictional characters...]


Are you an 'Otaku' too?
jumpedtheshark: Fangirling Mode activated (Tsumugi Fangirling)

[personal profile] jumpedtheshark 2018-11-25 02:02 am (UTC)(link)
[There's a sparkle in her eyes and she clasps her hands together in enthusiasm.]

Yes! Are you one too!? Have you watched Doraemon before!? My favorite Doraemon episode is #53! The one with security cameras and target practice! What's your favorite episode!?

[If Otakon has ever gushed to Snake about a favorite series or episode or anything to him, then Tsumugi's attitude and tone of voice right now is probably a dead ringer in similarity. This is a true blue bonafide otaku.]
tacticalespionageaction: (hhnngh)

[personal profile] tacticalespionageaction 2018-11-25 09:03 pm (UTC)(link)
[Tragically, Snake and Otacon were too busy with the Shadow Moses thing to really talk anime.

Still, he...he gets the point.]


...No. [There's a grunt, and a brief pause.] Knew a guy who was, though. He really liked those giant robots.
jumpedtheshark: What's that? (Neutral Curious)

[personal profile] jumpedtheshark 2018-11-26 01:20 am (UTC)(link)
.... Oh.

[Tsumugi's enthusiasm deflates back to normalish levels. She's embarrassed at her outburst of gushing, but... it confirmed that he doesn't recognize what cosplay was earlier. Which is.... she'll be locking that thought up for later when she's not out in the cold.]

Did he like a specific series, or the mecha genre as a whole?
tacticalespionageaction: (stop smoking we love you)

[personal profile] tacticalespionageaction 2018-11-26 12:53 pm (UTC)(link)
[He shrugs.]

Not sure.

[They hadn't had much time to talk about it.]

He had some posters on the walls, though. [Nrrhghhrh] 'Police Nauts', I think.
jumpedtheshark: An Excited Girl Nerding Out (Fangirling Even Harder)

[personal profile] jumpedtheshark 2018-11-27 03:59 am (UTC)(link)
Policenauts? If you're talking about the classic graphic adventure game... then your friend is an otaku of top taste!

[Congrats on earning Otakon Tsumugi's nerd respect.]

tacticalespionageaction: (hnnnrrrghhhh)

[personal profile] tacticalespionageaction 2018-11-27 08:18 am (UTC)(link)
[...his friend, huh?

That’s something like a smile on Snake’s lips, now.]


I’ll let him know if I can.

[The fact that Otacon is neither here, nor can he contact him via codec, is cause for concern. He didn’t have anyone else, after all, he only asked Snake if he was an Otaku after...]

Are you all alone out here, kid?

[He knows there’s other people- but that’s not what he’s meaning.]
jumpedtheshark: Upset Mugi (Plain Upset)

[personal profile] jumpedtheshark 2018-11-28 01:31 am (UTC)(link)
Good!

[Tsumugi pauses and frowns at his question about her being alone.]

Yeah... I don't recognize anyone here.

[And she's not even sure how or why she is here in the first place.]
tacticalespionageaction: (hhmmmgr)

[personal profile] tacticalespionageaction 2018-11-28 05:45 pm (UTC)(link)
[Not necessarily what he meant, but Snake’s not pushing that one.]

Me neither. [He looks to her, and then to the road ahead.] You can follow me.

[Because, unfortunately, the snowmobile is quite useless right now.]

Just keep up...and don’t wander off.
jumpedtheshark: (Neutral smile)

[personal profile] jumpedtheshark 2018-11-29 01:22 am (UTC)(link)
Okay.

[A grateful look appears on her face.]

I'm not athletic, but I'll plainly do my best to follow.
jumpedtheshark: Irritated amigo (Irritated Look)

[personal profile] jumpedtheshark 2018-12-01 06:10 am (UTC)(link)
It's a catchphrase.

[A sigh. Making that her catchphrase is something she really regrets, but it's impulse to use it now.]

I'm not sure I can stop saying it now...
tacticalespionageaction: (mmgghgrghhhgh)

[personal profile] tacticalespionageaction 2018-12-01 03:41 pm (UTC)(link)
A catchphrase?

[Eyebrow: raised.]
jumpedtheshark: A very nervous girl (Nervous Tsumugi)

[personal profile] jumpedtheshark 2018-12-03 08:14 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, a catchphrase... although it's not anything plain impressive like "There’s Only One Truth." or "Just Who The Hell Do You Think I Am?".

[Pause.]

But... I think it's become more of a verbal tic at this point...
tacticalespionageaction: (hnnrrrrh)

[personal profile] tacticalespionageaction 2018-12-03 11:29 am (UTC)(link)
Why do you need a catchphrase? We're not in a sitcom.
jumpedtheshark: (Eyes closed neutral)

Ummm.... let's say my former job required it.

A job in the entertainment industry. I got to write for and be apart of my favourite show.
tacticalespionageaction: (stop smoking we love you)

[personal profile] tacticalespionageaction 2018-12-03 10:42 pm (UTC)(link)
