📌 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.

[kumeyuri]

[blinks]

... Sure, but where would you even be carrying them to?

[uruha takes a drink even though his hands are minimally free with one carrying his sword... what kind of drinks did lucas get...]

[faithkept]

Ah, thank you! [IT'S TEA! He's a tea drinker, not a coffee drinker... Well. He's a wine drinker but there's no wine here, which is truly tragic. WHAT KIND OF HEAVEN IS THIS.]

I'd thought to go walking around a little more. Have you done much exploring yet?

[kumeyuri]

[great he likes tea he'll accept this]

Not much, although it feels like the options are lacking there.

[faithkept]

[TEA FOR THIS LAD WITH HIS FUNNY LIL HALO.]

Mm, it does seem a bit... sparse. But the sun is nice, isn't it?

[kumeyuri]

[YOU ALSO HAVE A FUNNY LIL HALO SIR]

... Could be worse, I guess.

[faithkept]

[STOP LISTEN HERE.]

Ah? Are you not all that much of a fan...?

[kumeyuri]

[a little shake of his head]

I like the sun. Just wasn't what first came to mind, really.

[faithkept]

Oh... The death?

[THE PART ABOUT DYING? MAYBE THAT'S WHAT'S ON THIS GUY'S MIND.]

[kumeyuri]

... The entire situation, I guess. Never spent much thought on what the afterlife would be like, but I don't think this is what I was expecting.

[faithkept]

There are some parts that are unexpected, certainly...

[Looking down at himself. Trying to adjust his top again.]

But it isn't terrible at all, is it?

[kumeyuri]

Well, it's mostly a lot of nothing. And why don't we have real clothes...

[faithkept]

I would also like to know where our clothing has gone. I wasn't aware a new outfit would be given upon death...

[kumeyuri]

[just buries his face in his hand HE WANTS HIS CLOTHES BACK!!!!!!!!]

[faithkept]

[Reaching out to very gently patpat his back...]

There, there. Did your little gift come with any extra fabric? It should have, I think.

[kumeyuri]

[lifts his hand away enough so that he can talk clearly]

You mean the scarf? I gave it to someone else.

[faithkept]

[Gazing at him...]

...Would you care for what I was given, then? Though I don't know that it will help you much.

[It's a little crocheted bonnet.]

[kumeyuri]

[he waves a hand.]

It's fine. It's not like you don't need it yourself.

[faithkept]

I really don't. My hair keeps my head quite warm.

[Too warm, perhaps. He has so much fucking hair.]

[kumeyuri]

[LUCAS YOUR FUCKING HAIR. granted uruha can't talk apparently he has a magic ponytail that regrows instantly after being cut somehow]

I'm not too concerned about keeping my head warm, but thank you for the offer anyway.

[faithkept]

[???? HOW DOES THAT WORK. HELP.

This is fine though, THEIR FUCKING CLOTHES. HE just nods.]

Please let me know if you change your mind... Ah, I'm sorry, may I ask for your name? Mine is Lucas.

[kumeyuri]

[SOMETIMES YOUR PONYTAIL GETS LOPPED IN HALF AND THEN THE AUTHOR CLEARLY COULDN'T BE BOTHERED TO RETAIN THAT DETAIL IN ALL IMMEDIATE PANELS AFTERWARDS

but he just flashes a peace sign in acknowledgment.]

... Uruha Yoji.

[faithkept]

[THAT'S SO FUNNY BUT ALSO WHAT A MOOD.

He's just gazing at the peace sign... Holding his hand up to mirror it...]

Is this a greeting?

[kumeyuri]

It's... [a pause] Don't worry about it.

[faithkept]

[WHAT KIND OF RESPONSE IS THIS.]

...Well, I wasn't worried about it before, but I may be a bit concerned now?

[kumeyuri]

[NO HE'S JUST FEELING AWKWARD NOW HOW DOES HE EXPLAIN PEACE SIGNS]

It's nothing concerning.
