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.))

When a TV show is airing, that means it's being broadcast. They usually stop airing a TV show when it's over....

[A sad sigh.]

So... for those ended shows, you say it's no longer airing.

[ He lifts his eyebrows. ]

I see. [ a beat ] What's so special about that one you were talking about?

Well...

[How to explain this in a way he'd get it... Oh!]

Have you ever had something or someone that made you feel complete and whole before? That when taken away, makes you feel incomplete... like there is a void in your chest. Like you're plain empty... and that feeling just plain hurts.

[

There's an unreadable look on his face at that description, though his eyes look not quite Right - pain, bitterness, anger, longing... It's brief, but it's very definitely there. This lasts for several seconds, and then he just gives one hell of an unstable smirk. ]

Not at all.

[Ah. She figured. There is an unreadable expression that flashes across her face, but it is quickly suppressed back into a neutral expression. Still... there's something in her eyes that seems off and empty for a moment.]

Well... I'm happy to hear that.

[A smile.]

I'm Shirogane Tsumugi. The Ultimate Cosplayer.

[ The introduction at least distracts him from the whirlwind of emotions. He discreetly takes a deep breath, and then casually shifts his stance, the tension easing out as he does. ]

Vanitas.

[ tf is cosplaying or having two names ]

[Well, this just further confirms it for her, along with all his reactions so far. If her smile grows marginally, well, no one has to know. It's interesting at least.]

Well, Vanitas-kun, It's good to meet you.

[ And like the heathen he is, she's getting a simple: ]

Yeah.

[ Before he just. Walks off..... ]

[She's honestly surprised he didn't walk off sooner. Tsumugi watches him walk away for all of 5 seconds before walking off as well.]
