You awaken amidst the darkness with only a faint light to greet you. Your body is hemmed in by shards of crystals, gently sparkling and possibly pricking your skin. The surrounding landscape is dyed in the pinks and purples of the dusk filled with crystals protruding from the ground, some as large as a skyscraper. After an hour or two of wandering through the crystal wilderness, a group of people find you worse for wear. They are the gallant Moon Knights from the planet of Prismatica. Because of the strange phenomena during the past months when scientists observed the sudden appearance of rainbow crystals in the sky, the government has been feverishly combing through the moon for more Moonblessed to be rescued. You’ll eventually be brought into Iris’s moon government center.
You all may have your usual inquiries — Where are we? Who are you? What's going on? — and the Prismals are almost too eager to answer. They tell you about their world and about the first appearance of the Moonblessed as the medical staff give you an examination to make sure you’re not carrying any viruses or biological hazards. If you react violently, you may be restrained and nerfed with a specialized neurotransmitting gun that releases a numbing agent through the top of your spine. Once the examinations are over, you’re informed that you will be provided accommodations on their planet during your stay. You will then be escorted to the docks, and led onto a large transport vessel that makes frequent trips back and forth between the Iris moon and the planet. Faces onboard vary from both old and new Moonblessed as well as the local Prismals.
The next destination: Prismatica.
▶ Welcome to the Jungle
Iris Moon, Government Center (Arrival) and Planet Prismatica, City of Lunatia | top
Welcome to Prismatica’s hub, Lunatia, the city of your dreams! A bustling metropolis lush with bright lights, vibrant colors, luxuriant plant life, and all the conveniences of technology absent from your own world… It seems like paradise to all the uninitiated. After a quick tour of the city, new arrivals can find themselves getting cozy in their new homes.

Oh my god, they're back again. After taking more than a year-long hiatus, *BTSB (Backstay Sailor Boys) takes the planet by storm once more with their latest single, Anybody (Yeah). With an album out and a concert on the way, the five-man fox Prismal group from Amegahara has been busy with promotions. Their appearances on billboard ads, magazines, TV shows, et cetera make their worldwide handsome faces pretty hard to miss! Everyone and their pet robot in Lunatia can be found jamming to their songs, and every teenager on the street can tell you who their bias is and why.

Before you meet these foxy boys, you'll want to do your research on them. Thankfully, their ridiculously huge fanbase (who refer to themselves as NAVY) has already done the work for you.
Suzaku is the leader and the brains of the group. Both his witty, rapid-fire raps and lightning-fast spinning breakdances are known throughout the planet. He is also a newscaster and likes making informative but interesting Prismagram posts. His brother is also an idol, albeit a washed up one-hit wonder.
Kaya is the group's down-to-earth mom friend and soulful vocals. He is the most responsible of the boys and handles their meals and laundry. A former delinquent in his youth, he now spends his free time cooking for schoolchildren and advocating fox rights. He does not support fox pelt products and owns an animal shelter for strays.
Lecter is a dancer who oozes with sex appeal. If not in the studio, he is always hitting up the gym. Once a member of the Little Moonblessings Club in his childhood, he has grown out of his boy-next-door image. Currently, he is #2 on Prismal Magazine's Top 100 Sexiest Men Alive for his well-built frame and photogenic looks. Contrary to his cool appearance and reserved demeanor, he is surprisingly personable. He is also a prolific actor. He likes cats.
Tarn is the baby of the group who maintains a gaming channel. He often does spontaneous livestreams where he does Let’s Play sessions, live Q&As, and encourages people to make memes of his face. He jokes about playing more LmaO than going to practice but he’s got clear and strong vocals.
Rasha is a narcissistic man who can’t get enough of his fans and himself. When hanging around his fans, he tends to ask if they have a mirror to look at himself with. Don’t let his vanity fool you! He’s funny, incredibly easy to be with, and willing to treat people to drinks. He writes most of the lyrics for the group’s songs.

After a quick tour of the city, new arrivals can find themselves getting cozy in their new homes.
A Settle in your new home at Level 2 to find new roommates and say hello to your neighbors! City officials will give you directions to the designated districts across Level 2 and instruct you to pick out a unit. Each apartment complex has a different aesthetic, some may look cozy, some stylish, and some bizarre. The free accommodations have a basic living space that can only fit two or three people at most in one unit.
Starter Chromaspace furnishings are provided which can be controlled with the touch of a built-in panel. Examples are color-changing curtains, transforming sofa beds, cabinets turning into tables, etc. Customizing your apartment or moving out will have to wait until you earn more chroma. Until then, why don’t you check out your new neighborhood or explore the city levels? Maybe your new roommates or neighbors can give you a “hand” with allowance for dinner.

B Be a part of *BTSB's Prismagram campaign and get a chance to win a physical copy of their album and backstage passes to their upcoming concert! Simply take a picture of you and your friends with official merchandise and post it on Prismagram with the hashtag #WeAreBTSB. Be careful, though: touching *BTSB merchandise tends to make people crush on the first face they see. The posts with the best pictures and stories will get their prizes in the mail on the 24th.
Why would a Moonblessed want to meet them, you ask? Community spirit! A sizable portion of the locals will start singing or dancing with you and your friends! “I want it another way. Tell me why? I never want to hear you say, I wish it wasn't that way. Don't be that way!” Play along and they’ll be willing to pardon your unpaid meal tab for one time or offer an incredible discount for one item you really wanted at the mall. The boys are also considered talented magic users in their own right. They might have some spells and magic tools to add to a Moonblessed's arsenal!

C Every hour, you will receive a text from the official *BTSB fanclub with a link to a poll. The texts will not stop unless you answer the poll. Please answer it ICly, as the answers will affect the event later this month!
Upon voting on the poll, you will be redirected to a video and text chatroom where you will be connected to a random stranger who has also answered the poll. Both you and the stranger will then need to answer the following questions:
- Do you think the other person in this chatroom can be your fire? One of your many desires? Tell me why. Be honest.
- Among the Moonblessed, who do you think is tasty? The tastiest?
Until both questions are answered truthfully, it will be impossible to switch apps, close the app, or delete it entirely.

"Oh, I don't know about that. It's a bit exciting, isn't it?" he hums as he raises a bandaged palm to the glass. "I've never seen this part of the universe before. It's a whole new playground to run wild in."
no subject
"I've never seen any part of the universe," Malcolm replies, "at least not like this." He gestures to the glass. "Just pictures from the Hubble telescope, stuff like that. I take it this isn't that fascinating of a view for you."
Some people have never had the privilege of leaving Earth before.
no subject
His eyes narrow as they hone in on the largest planet framed in the window, the one they're currently approaching.
"I wonder if the planet they're taking us to will live up to that feeling."
no subject
"Where and when I come from, space travel isn't something that everyone gets to do. We haven't reached the point where it's affordable and feasible for everyone," he says. "Plus, we only live on Earth. It's not like people would have anywhere else to go anyway."
no subject
Kamui turns, deigning to face Malcolm directly for the first time.
"Do you miss it already?"
no subject
Malcolm shrugs and looks at the other guy. "Not knowing what we're going into yet, I can't really answer that question," he says.
no subject
"The welcoming committee was pretty confident, but they were babbling about some pretty out there stuff too. I guess trying to answer now is a bit of a crapshoot. You'll have to tell me what you think after we land."
no subject
"I'm curious what the other people who've been brought here think, the ones who've been here longer than us," Malcolm replies. "They're the people I'd like to question."
He assumes that their patrons aren't going to give them the whole truth.
no subject
This guy clearly has patience to spare. In a situation like this, when he's been unwillingly removed from his homeworld for the first time... That's just not normal. It'd be hilarious if the guy wasn't being so dull about the whole thing.
no subject
Malcolm does have patience. He's waited out killers in interrogation rooms and hostage negotiations. This guy's just kind of annoying since he's not getting the reaction he hoped for.
"You don't like to show fear or uncertainty, do you?"
no subject
At least he's decided to behave until he's seen Prismatica for himself. Collateral damage won't make this shuttle move any faster, after all.
Malcolm's question earns him Kamui's full attention once more, and the intrigued pirate's brow rises into his bangs. "Is this the first question in your poll? It's already loads better than I thought it would be." He laughs, his expression hideously genial. "But you're the only other person in this room, you know? Why the hell would I be afraid of you?"
no subject
"I didn't say you were afraid of me," Malcolm says. He knows he's relatively short and not very intimidating looking, but being an FBI agent for several years means that he knows how to defend himself. "I meant afraid of this situation, of the unknown. Lots of people have a fear of the unknown. You don't really want to show that though. I just find it curious."
He observes him, seeing what else he can suss out for an initial profile.
no subject
He prefers to literally tackle them, as Malcolm can probably surmise from the way he turns his body, sliding one boot across the floor to broaden his posture.
"I'm not afraid. If there's anything in that vast unknown that can take me on, I welcome it."
He means it, every word. But then again, he's very obviously focusing on the physical. Anything that would scare him clearly falls into another category.
no subject
"That's your usual method of dealing with stuff, right? Taking it head on?"
His tone is neutral, not judgmental.
no subject
