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.))

Ah, Constable Gerome...

[...wait a second...]

So wait, Minerva's tiny now, too? Man, that sounds... kind of adorable, actually. Well, I mean, mine's also really adorable, but how am I supposed to heroically pose with her like this?

1/2

[maskarang]

Take that back! Minervykins has always been adorable! [ wait

shit he fucked up ]

[maskarang]

... you didn't hear that. [ also she didn't say minerva wasn't adorable before??? he cannot chill, there is no chill here. the anti-chill zone has cometh. ]

I... Uh... She's... diminutive, yes, but no less lethal than before. You shouldn't recklessly pose with her or drag her into your games.

[thejusticewagon]

Oh, I meant that like, kittens are cuter than cats, but cats are still cute, you know? Making something smaller makes it even cuter!

...But anyhow, aw, man! I was talking about Deidere, but now you're making me sad that I can't have Minerva pose on my shoulder now....

[maskarang]

No. [ he's protesting because he can. not because he believes. ]

And. Right. Of course. I knew that. [ a beat. ] ... Why would you want either of them on your shoulder?

[thejusticewagon]

Well, wouldn't it look super cool? I mean, I think it'd look super cool. Maybe not a shoulder pegasus, but a shoulder wyvren? Heck yeah!

[maskarang]

Is that so? I'm not sure I see the appeal.

[thejusticewagon]

Aw, come on! Wouldn't you like it if you could, like, stand on the roof of a building and have the wings of your shoulder wyvren flare out behind you while you're silhouetted against the full moon?

[maskarang]

... That sounds like one of Owain's fantasies.

[thejusticewagon]

I mean, he usually has pretty good taste.
