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.))

[It's actually a very good motivator, because Atsushi sure as hell doesn't want to die. It's enough to startle him and get him to look up at Iwai, and then a second later he is on his feet.]

Ah, y-yes! That would not be good.

[He still sounds anxiety-riddled though.]

Good. Get moving.

[Satisfied, Iwai resumes walking, expecting Atsushi to follow]

Never walked on snow before?

[personal profile] moonlightbeast 2018-11-25 03:38 am (UTC)(link)
N-no, I have.

[He follows after Iwai well enough, at least? He's light on his feet as he moves too.]

I just wasn't expecting snow, it wasn't winter.

It may not be because it's winter -- it may be because of our location.

[Akira proposed they may be waaaay up north. Iwai isn't convinced that's correct, but it's a possibility to keep in mind]

[personal profile] moonlightbeast 2018-11-26 01:25 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh. Oh that makes sense.]

But even Hokkaido doesn't have snow this time of year, does it?
geckodad: 13 (13)

[personal profile] geckodad 2018-11-26 02:03 am (UTC)(link)
That's correct. Doesn't paint a pretty picture, yeah?

[The possibility they're even further north -- and out of Japan. In Iwai's opinion, there's another possibility, although it's much more worrying]

Or we may have forgotten way more than just a few hours.

Ah...that would be very costly, though. To drug someone so much they forget a large chunk of time, that has to be expensive. And illegal.

[Maybe don't ask how Atsushi knows about these kind of things.]
geckodad: 13 (13)

[personal profile] geckodad 2018-11-26 03:15 am (UTC)(link)
[Iwai chuckles. You're so lucky Iwai isn't the type to care about why people do or know shady stuff, Atsushi, haha]

Of course it's illegal and expensive. That's why if that's what happened to us, there'd have to be a very good reason for that.

[...hm...]

Not that bringing us all to Siberia or any other cold place is much less expensive. It may be, but it also needs a lot of preparation.

[He does have a point there, it would be awfully expensive to just leave them all there like this.]

Maybe...they didn't intend to just leave us here?

What, you think they lost a cargo of kidnapping victims?

[It sure would be humilliating if they got kidnapped by people so incompetent they lost thirty people at once, he thinks]
moonlightbeast: (63)

[personal profile] moonlightbeast 2018-11-26 04:46 am (UTC)(link)
It seems more likely than kidnapping us just to dump us here, doesn't it?
geckodad: 6 (6)

[personal profile] geckodad 2018-11-26 01:05 pm (UTC)(link)
...dumbasses.

[Not that Iwai will make the mistake of understimating them. This is a potential life-or-death situation. Still, pretty emasculating to think it's possible they got captured by kidnappers who lose their victims around]]
