day zero

[guestcontrol]

dreamland day zero 42 players remaining. [You wake up in a temporary barracks set up behind an amusement park. The weather is chilly but pleasant, and there aren't any lines for the rides - in fact, it seems you have this place to yourself. The entire park appears to have been abandoned some years ago, and though everything is in working order, it is overgrown with plants and seems rusted and unsafe. As for you, something has happened, though you aren't sure what. There's a throbbing pain in your head, and you can't focus, as though you're coming off heavy pain medications. However you think you should look, you look like a human now. Under the bandages wrapped around your temple, old and smelling like blood, you'll find a recently stitched up scar wound and the inability to focus on your memories. You have no knowledge of how you came to be here; you may even have forgotten certain aspects of your life, or feel confused about them. The fact of your missing memories is obvious, a dark blank spot. Under the bandages around your wrist, you'll find a brightly colored bracelet, decorated with the face of the smiling cartoon animal on your wall, embedded into your flesh. It beeps a merry tune and welcomes you to DreamLand Fun Park. Just then, a voice comes over the loudspeaker.] "Good morning to all of our new guests! The park is now open! We'll get started later, but for now, have a magical day with your new friends! Oh, and there may be a few nasty side effects to your medical condition. If you meet someone having trouble adjusting to reality, please be polite!" [In your room, you'll find a small box containing several personal items - no weapons, magical items, or technology advanced beyond the early 21st century, and nothing dangerous, but otherwise anything you would ordinarily find on your person is there. Of course, nothing with cell reception or internet connectivity can manage to pick up a signal. If you swipe your bracelet against the steel door, it unlocks. You may now explore your accommodations, or venture out into the park.] profiles character statuses setting This is an IC mingle covering the first day! Night roles will go up Monday at 4 PM EST, but you are welcome to continue to thread here once that happens. Make sure to follow any updates on plurk!

[ Hilariously it's more pop than punk, but LIVE AND CHANGE.

Everything Ibuki does is always fun - or she seems to think so. ]

Ibuki's main weapon of choice is the guitar! But she can play a lot of different instruments if she has to!

[ SHSL isn't a title for people who aren't, well. Super High School Level. ]

If we can find some instruments, we can have a jam session!

[fanbase]

[ There's a little bit of hesitance when Ibuki suggests the jam session. She plays it out as trying to get more comfortable in the teacup while it's spinning and then raises her voice again. ]

Uh... yeah! That'd be sweet. There's gotta be some entertainment in a place like this, right? It's a great backdrop for a video too.

[poyoyon]

[ Considering Ibuki let Nanami jam with a triangle, she probably would let Clash just provide cymbals if she wanted, to be honest...

At least Ibuki raising her voice takes no effort. ]

Yeah!!! Ibuki knows a photographer who can take pictures of everyone, too! Ehehehe!

[fanbase]

Oh yeah! She said she was gonna follow me around and write an article about me. I bet a jam session would make great publicity.

[ Clash has a feeling it's going to be the publicity that finally makes her a real, true Misfit. ]

[poyoyon]

Eh?! Mahiru-chan writes articles now?!

[ SINCE WHEN...oh, the ride is winding down. SAD TIMES. ]

[fanbase]

She said her name was Aya Shamesomething. Does that mean there are two photographers here?

[ That's even better! Clash doesn't feel the least bit dizzy when it slows to and stop, but she waits for her to suggest what they do next. ]

[poyoyon]

Must be!! Ibuki's friend is Mahiru Koizumi, she's the Super High School Level Photographer.

[ Ibuki hops out of the teacup, stretching. ]

Hm hm hm...shall we go to the coaster, next?!

[fanbase]

[ As she trails behind her, she actually feels a little sad that the Misfits aren't here. They all would have a lot of fun here, even if things have changed lately between her and them. Her sadness is brief or rather, she's become interested in getting along with Ibuki, and she perks up at the suggestion of the roller coaster. ]

That would be wicked! Do you think we'll be the only ones on it? I bet that would make it way more fun.

[poyoyon]

Ibuki hasn't seen any lines yet! It looks like the park is alllllllll ours!

[ also those other losers are being sort of weird about going on rides who knows why ]

So we can get the very very very front seat even!

[fanbase]

My dad and I always rode in the front seat when we went on roller coasters. My cousin was always too scared to be in the front and had to sit in the middle row.

[ She laughs. ]

It was so pathetic! Being in the front is the best part of the ride.

[poyoyon]

Ibuki agrees! It's just like how the best place to sit in the movie theater is way in the front!!!

[ WOW Clash's cousin sounds lame. ]

Luckily, Ibuki and Clash are super brave and smart, so we'll have the best ride!

[fanbase]

Of course we will, we're not like those lame Jem and the Holograms. We've actually got style.

[ Because there are no lines, Clash just basically hops over all the bars and heads right for the front car. She plops herself in and waits for Ibuki. ]

Think we can ride it three times without getting sick?
