📌 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.

[obdure]

[ you are all cowards for not joining the flood he snorts at the lively comment. ]

I did not slip. A bunch of food just started spilling out. [ Groaning. ] Is there really no way to stop... All of this. Is this a curse?

[fightolive]

Hmm...

[She looks at the way the nest is made and then mirrors it with her green scarf.]

Is that really going to be warm enough? Maybe we should put them together?

[midway]

No, please, stop me. All I'm doing is making myself look like a lunatic.

[ Laughing a little. ]

The name's Claude, by the way.

[ziosar]

[This is one heck of a person to meet. Akihiko really assumes everything is part of the costume because my, this is quite the sight, you're so tall]

Are they? It's not that I'm not thankful for the hat, but why a big egg and a pen? Feels more like an office job welcome package than...something actually useful.

[He's almost surprised there wasn't a generic mug included too]

[boxcar]

I don't look like a human?

[ The confusion is mounting. ]

c

[florescences]

[ she meets his gaze with a smile. ]

Hiiii, did I interrupt you?

[ as if he wasn't just being super questionable. ]

[rippled]

... a single egg can only do so much.

[ they sound so dejected. ]

[productionhell]

It's possible! A duel just for fun, anyway. It's a toy.

[ challenge her, saber... ]

[noirges]

[ on his sexy angel cosplay...... ]

You could go to the outskirts and try to get lost on purpose, if you want. Though I think that's getting some people a little sick.

But if you also want to claim a quiet spot to yourself, I can guard it and tell people to leave you alone for a while.

[ and unfortunately this is a totally sincere, stupid offer ]

[chrysanths]

If you stay still, you won't have problems about the length.

[ Hopefully?! Anyway, he turns away from Taair because he probably doesn't want to be looked at right now. He sighs and goes over to the box, opening it. Is there a scarf in here? ]

[smokeandglasses]

Oh, well-

[His mind instantly races through all of the options that could possibly explain how someone doesn't know about a smartphone. Maybe he's lived under a rock for a few decades, or maybe he's one of those people who doesn't use technology. Or he could just be really, really old and set in his ways too, Ali supposes.

In the end the reason doesn't matter though, and Ali will help this man regardless.]

It's a phone. I guess they're technically called mobile phones, but language has evolved rapidly and most people just call them phones now. You can use them to call people, send messages to someone, or even play games. These ones look like they can take pictures too.

[sacredpath]

I don't see why it's any business of ours. Though I suppose I might tuck some of it away if it's needed later.

[outdistanced]

[ hm. for just a moment, he holds his hands out in front of him like he's expecting something to just... appear between them? but nothing does, and he lets them drop back to his sides. ]

A strong enough Daphne could do it, if their powers worked here. Mine don't.

...There isn't really anywhere for someone to hide though. It's all just... [ gestures at the sky ] ...this.

[fightolive]

Maybe it's the species?

[ Holds up her egg with concern.]

[midway]

[ A quickly comes to a stop.

He also holds up his hands. ]

I'm not gonna attack you.

[punnier]

[ Siffrin just smiles in a way as if they're used to responses like his. A glance to some cheesy burger and back at him. ]

I'm just about swimming in cheesy jokes. My humor wouldn't be so grate with just one otherwise.

[ Hehe. ]

[lightning]

[ he hums quietly, regarding jiaoqiu with a gaze both gentle and acute.

a breath in, and a soft exhale. ]

Well, I know I am no longer on the Luofu—and no longer General.

[ another smile. ] So no need for formalities.

[ not that he really cared for them anyway to begin with. ]

And have you a question for me in return?

[ he can sense it... The Questions Awaiting... jing yuan as well. ]

[productionhell]

If it's not too much trouble... thank you.

[ bruh she's not used to people giving a shit about her ]

It's a pleasure to meet you, Lucas, though I wish it was under better circumstances. And--- ah-- I believe so.

[ziosar]

It's only quitter's talk if you stop now and never try ever again.

[Although probably don't right away]

[smokeandglasses]

[A rare species...]

What, like, a chicken but red?

[boxcar]

It was ascension for Alll-mer but I don't think that's going to happen to me.

I don't think anyone died because of the toilets though.

[ How would that even happen? ]

Yet.

[fried]

[ it's probably more like ramen than hot pot but listen. he is doing his best here. ]

Various levels of heat. [ he says absently, squinting down at one of them. his eyes are barely visible. ] Nothing is spicy enough, I'm afraid. What a disappointment.

[ YOU'D THINK HE'D GET TO HAVE SPICY HOT POT IN HEAVEN BUT NO ]

[kumeyuri]

[




retrieves his own egg and hands it out to saber? two eggs.]

[historicals]

Aha... yes, I think that's the truth.

[ new friendships... his heart is so warm. ]

Then... perhaps you will permit me to ask you a question that is a bit uncouth, if only at the mention of the state of affairs. My current thought is perhaps that I'm very dead, and this is some sort of afterlife. Are you thinking the same?

[rippled]

[ they will munch on the nugget, and will have a !!! moment at the sauce. whoa!!! ]

Oh. You as well, then?
