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.))

[ Well, he's cleared away enough that the remainder is now manageable enough for Chu-Chu to make it through the rest of the way! Which he is apparently doing by inhaling that damn snow like an Icee.

He's round like a snowball when he emerges, and clearly has a bad case of brain freeze. But he's back to normal in about five seconds as his inner snowball melts and he deflates.

Chu-Chu physics are truly horrifying. ]


Oh, it's a little like shaved ice, isn't it?

[ Anthy taps him affectionately on the head, and then turns to Minato with a warm smile. ]

We appreciate your help.

[That... that is so much...

It's a lot to process, but he's kind of impressed and amazed, too.]


I'm glad he's okay...

[PROBABLY...]

Does this sort of thing happen a lot...?
rosebridled: (we become just like an allegory)

[personal profile] rosebridled 2018-11-25 12:10 am (UTC)(link)
Not exactly, but he does tend to get into trouble sometimes. He's very enthusiastic.
messianic: (For thou my death dost tell:)

[Hm, well... that's one way to put it.]

I hope he's warm enough in a place like this...

Yes, we haven't spent a lot of time in the snow.

[ And he does not look like one of those snowy hot spring baboons.

Anthy pulls the zipper of her coat down a few inches so Chu-Chu can hop inside and warm up. (She's wearing a turtleneck under here, okay, this is perfectly innocent.) ]


Well, maybe I can knit something for him once we find some kind of shelter. --Ah, would you want some mittens in that case?
messianic: (So marvellous things)

[personal profile] messianic 2018-11-25 10:06 pm (UTC)(link)
[That's pretty cute, honestly... Anthy and her soft, squishy companion.

Regardless...!!

Minato blinks, shoving his hands back into his pockets.]


Are you sure...? You don't have to put in that much effort just for me.
rosebridled: (the window opened)

[personal profile] rosebridled 2018-11-26 12:14 am (UTC)(link)
[ Well, that's why she said mittens and not gloves! ]

It will probably be a while before anyone can come out to get us in this weather. I don't know what else I'd be doing in the meantime.

[ Maybe building snowmonkeys. ]
messianic: (Therefore my soul melts)

[personal profile] messianic 2018-11-26 12:39 am (UTC)(link)
... If you're sure, then I'll gratefully accept.

[Keep his poor fingers warm.]

Thank you. Honestly.
rosebridled: (there are two of me)

[personal profile] rosebridled 2018-11-26 01:59 am (UTC)(link)
Think nothing of it.

[ Anyway, since their mystery destination is going to have a ski store, this may be irrelevant! It's the thought that counts. ]
