📌 Welcome

Think for a moment. What's the last thing you remember, exactly? Were you with your loved ones? Were you fighting for your life? Whatever the case may be, the story ends like this: you died. Regardless of how important circumstances were, you have been eliminated from your own world. That's all there is.

Perhaps it will surprise you to wake up surrounded by the sky in every direction. What's above is reflected below in the shallow water that ripples beneath you without getting you wet. Strangely, what lies beneath this water is a mystery to you, and it feels more like walking on a glass surface, completely solid and clear underfoot.

Despite the fact you've perished, nothing hurts. Any injuries you arrived with have been neatly bandaged, and anything life-threatening has been mended enough that it no longer is. The warm sunshine probably feels good on your skin right now, doesn't it? The temperature is perfect, and you feel oddly comfortable considering the circumstances.

You aren't the only one rousing, however. Strangers around you also blink into consciousness, glowing halos flickering to life and floating over their heads. It might be hard to see the shape of your own halo looking up, but your reflection on the ground should help with that. Reaching up to touch it will prove futile. It's intangible, though your hand feels a little warm passing through it.

Your first instinct might be to leave. Can't blame you. You're in a strange place surrounded by strange people and no sense of direction. You might even try to use one of your powers from your home world to escape, but try as you might they don't appear to work. Worry not though; it looks like this place has bestowed some gifts upon you. Within your vicinity you have have one item from home. You have a gift box with your name on it. And, of course, you have the brand new sexy angel costume that you're already wearing! 😇

So what are you waiting for? Up and at 'em! The island has plenty of space to explore, though as you approach the edge it fades slowly into a thick fog. Pressing onward into the fog will disorient you and soon you'll find yourself completely turned around right back where you started. Probably best to stick to this area.

But hey, there's plenty to look at still! Instead of empty space, scattered around the island you'll see glassy, transparent protrusions from the ground. Most of them... well, you can't quite make out the shape. Could be buildings. Could be trees. Could be objects on the ground. Flowers, maybe? Their form doesn't seem to want to settle, and the light catching on their edges isn't really as illuminating as you'd like.

There is one exception to this. One shape seems to be more stable than the rest, less transparent and instead just... hazy. It's like you're looking at it through glasses with the wrong prescription. Even though it's blurry, you can tell that it's a cafe, and its door is wide open. Thoughtful, right? Whoever or whatever brought you here, at least they don't want you to starve!

Though no one is manning the counter, you can order your desired meal off of the slightly-clearer touch screen menu that offers up any kind of fast food you could want. There are also two restrooms in the back, with the keys hanging up on the wall beside them. That aside, there doesn't appear to be anything else open and you're left to your own devices.

We understand this is a lot to process, so take your time adjusting. And remember: everything is fine.

🎁 Gift Basket

As mentioned, each of you wake up with your item from home and a gift box with your name on it. There's a printed note attached to the fancy ribbon tying it off. It reads: Enjoy a welcome gift from us! For any questions, please refer to the informational pamphlet inside. ... but naturally, no such pamphlet seems to exist.

Each box contains the following:

📱
Cell Phone

A smartphone. Text and call to your heart's content. Just kidding! There's no service yet.
At least the camera and notes app work.

🖊️
Pen

One encouraging pen of your choice. Blue ink!

🥚
Egg

A large egg the color of your halo. About ostrich egg sized. Warm.

⚔️
Toy Lightsaber

A collapsible toy lightsaber! Lights up the same color as your halo.

🧸
Squishmallow

A small squishmallow! Any animal or item that would suit your personality.

🧶
One Crocheted Accessory

A cute scarf/mittens/hat/etc, handmade in a color that suits you.

[foreverphantom]

Duly noted.

[ his ass is Not taking the advice ]

[purities]

Japan.

[midway]

Well, I can't really blame you for it. We did all wake up confused.

[ Holds out frog. ]

[midway]

[ Hands it over! ]

I can't guarantee the quality, but I always find it comforting to have a warm drink.

My name's Claude.

[dickkick]

overflow!

[midway]

A place called Leicester.

Ever heard of it?

[midway]

[ lol nerd ]

I'd be happy to have an exchanging of minds with you. [ Gesturing to the cafe. ] But you're right, it might be a better to talk over tea.

And speaking of introductions, I'm Claude.

[midway]

[ ... ]

Well, people have different limits of the hardships they're willing to endure. It's not easy to convince everyone to fight for a cause.

[florescences]

It'd make adjusting a little easier for everyone, at least.

[ they don't need a blood bath after dying. ]

[jiaohua]

Mine is Su Waner.

[she takes a cautious sip of the tea. since this is like, western fast food, it's probably not any kind of tea she's used to, but it's fine.]

It is nice to meet you, Sir Claude, even if these circumstances are a bit...

[she lets her voice trail off.]

Unusual.

[florescences]

[ something softens in her expression and in her voice. ]

Your life could never be worthless to me.

[ she is so sincere for knowing him for five minutes. ]

[trifocal]

I suppose...

[ That logic is solid and she's not sure how to argue it. ]

Why can't demiflora have normal lives outside of the tower?

[florescences]

Why should that stop me? If I get to know you better, that'll only support me, right?

[dickkick]

overflow!

[boxcar]

Oh. Okay.

[ What's a pronoun. No but he will keep this in mind anyway. ]

Marcoh. You too.

[boxcar]

Maybe we will find clothes? I don't think we can just stay in these forever.

[ Bet though. ]

Ill let you know if I find a jacket or blankets.

[productionhell]

If that's the case.... I won't let him get away with dragging all of you into this.

[ she does not explain ]

[boxcar]

[ Carefully accepts frog like he's holding glass. It does its little frog blink. ]

Ay. Hopefully we get an idea of what we can do soon. I don't mind talking but I prefer action.

[punnier]

[ For a moment, Siffrin just stares at her held out hand like she's grown a second head or something, like it's something new. Something he isn't accustomed to.

But he jumps a bit at that mention because, right, obviously? It makes sense? It'd be so easy to get lost in the fog otherwise so. ..Slowly, carefully, he places his black mitten hand in hers and nods. ]

R-Right. [ Um... Oh, they almost forgot-- ] I'm Siffrin, by the way.

[punnier]

[ ..Hah! So, that's what it was? ]

That's okay, doesn't mean you can't learn.

[punnier]

[ nodnod ]

Why didn't it?

[midway]

I wouldn't say shy. [ hey... ] I just don't know if it's appropriate for a king to be parading around like a show dog.

... Not that titles mean anything anymore...

[midway]

Hard to say, since I don't remember dying.

And even if it was, I can't say I wouldn't have it coming. [ ... ] But... let me guess, you're mad about unfinished business?

[midway]

I wouldn't say "just". That kind of attitude can get you through a lot.

[ Shakes his hand! ]

Here's hoping there aren't too many more punches, in any case.

[midway]

Thanks for your generosity, O Mighty Stranger.

Have you learned a lot by peeking into people's boxes?
