📌 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.

[apoisoncary]

[ phone number

phone? it doesn't sound like anything she's heard of before ]

What's a phone?

ii.

[sacredpath]

[yuck. trying to keep her train from dragging in ketchup.]

...If it was, I surely would have enough to share.

[midway]

[ that is a joke ftr

But he will startle and kneel down beside him. ]

Hey, you okay?

[kumeyuri]

[...]

Mm. Well, I'm not sure what the term is for dying a second time in the afterlife.

[fightolive]

Yes, it would be.

Hmm... Should we start looking in here?

[She says as she starts looking right now.]

[chrysanths]

[ Fast reflex man. He sees that there's a man under all these burgers, but for that remark, he just frowns. ]

Yeah? You and what army?

[historicals]

[ WHY IS HEAVEN SO SEXY

he looks very flustered, but nods, and then digs around in the box. i almost gave him mittens but i committed to a scarf, so eventually he does pull out a pretty blue one and sighs in relief almost visibly, holding it out. ]

Well! This is... interesting, isn't it! How embarrassing... Thank you, kind sir.

[noirges]

Isn't that the best way? Nothing beats sharing a drink with friends after a hard day's work!

[ yummy regular tea... yves looks around after a moment though ]

Should I prepare you a cup? I'll get self-conscious if I'm the only one partaking.

[rippled]

Hm, I do not believe I have killed you...

Shall we do a do over? I can be more upset next time.

[cupidsammo]

[ ?? ]

I guess I can't say it's unfitting... Then what's yours?

[berserketype]

... A boat, maybe?

[ honestly. it's something. ]

[productionhell]

Well, from what I know about eggs, you start by keeping them warm and safe. I used my scarf to bundle mine!

[ shows off her little egg nest ]

[midway]

[ Running a hand through his hair. ]

Does trying to outrun the fog sound as stupid as I think it does?

[kumeyuri]

... Are we supposed to eat the egg, or something?

[sacredpath]

I'm not sure.

[it seems almost a half finished thought.]

But this cannot be straightforward. We didn't just arrive here by chance and receive gift baskets.

ii

[outdistanced]

[ looks at his egg. looks at hers. ]

Why are they green, though?

[nonmagicuser]

Damn, and here I was hoping to find there would simply be flowing springs of free alcohol.

[punnier]

[ (UH....) ]

I didn't kiss anyone's-- [ Siffrin has been pointedly ignoring all the outfits everyone has been sporting off but, they do realize they have been better off than most if not a lot?

Taking some. Big steps away. ]

I don't think mine is gonna cover you much more than yours already does.

[ Sir you have twenty CMs more on them?? ]

[fried]

Oh! I do! What a relief that they're still there. Are they still pink?

[ reaches up to rub at his own ears ]

[ziosar]

Normally they're somewhere else. They probably just...figured out how to make the food come to you. That's all.

[He's really trying to think of it that way, at least, because accepting that food can just appear, it feels like he's a step closer to accepting his own death and that's something he'd rather not deal with for the time being, golly]

[rippled]

Ah! So it is sentient... why didn't I think of that...?

[ nooOOOoooooo ]

Quick! Apologize.

[fightolive]

Did you also get one?

[productionhell]

No, no, of course not. I just don't want to hurt anyone's feelings, especially since I have no idea who made this.

Or... where we are. Or anything, really.

[noirges]

[ yves will eat the chicken nugget

and then simultaneously hold one out for saber. it has some sauce on it unless the mods decided we don't have sauce idk ]

Honestly, me too... I'm really not sure what to make of it.

Especially with the last thing I remember being kind of.... deadly.

[chrysanths]

[ He crouches to observe them closely. Hm.

Hm............................... ]

They're like this on purpose?

[ It looks like he's recalling some bad memories here. ]
