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.

[ What a surprise! Definitely not an unwelcomed one. Seeing one of his Golden Deer was certainly a treat... no pun intended regarding the current question at hand, of course. But that doesn't matter because he completely forgot those questions for a moment. ]
Yeah, I just got here actually. What about you? Did you just arrive? Are you alright?
[ He tries not to worry too much, but even if Marianne's grown a lot more confident, he still worries. Even if she was always confident, he'd still worry. It's his job to watch out for his friends. ]
no subject
[ she doesn't mind the questions, or the worrying, really. this is a new place they've suddenly found themselves in, after all. not to mention, claude was always kind and compassionate, even if she did take a bit to open up to him at first. the hardships they've endured together helped in that regard, and marianne has him to thank too for her newfound confidence. ]
It's really good to see you, Claude... um, despite the circumstances. I'm glad you're okay.
no subject
[ He's glad that Marianne's alright. He'd be upset if something happened to her... and then deal with whoever might of hurt her ( or try to, anyway ). He wanted to watch out for his friends, since they're like family to him. Even if he still has a secret or two close to his heart. ]
I'm glad to see you too. And I'm glad you're alright too. I'm sure Hilda and Lorenz are happy to see you as well.
[ Is he forgetting something -- oh, right. ]
Something tells me this survey was annoying you too, huh?
no subject
[ it seems like there's quite a few people she knows from home here. it's more than a little troubling, to say the least, how they all ended up here without knowing the cause. from just being around hilda for a little while, marianne got the impression she's been here for some time already, but it's really only been a day since she last saw her. ]
You saw them too, right? [ but speaking of teach— ] And did the Professor tell you about his memories?
[ it's still something she's trying to wrap her head around, even though she's accepted it. but anyway. ]
Mm, it kept asking me who I liked, but I wasn't sure...
no subject
Man, all three house leaders really did need help. ]
I'm guessing Teach told you, too? Yeah, they gave me the run down. It's strange to think about, but... To be fair, dealing with strange things is practically in our job description now.
[ A little jest, but it was basically the truth. Anyway, boy bands! ]
I don't really get this whole thing. It's good that everyone is having fun, but... [ It almost seems like it's too much? The billboards, their faces practically on everything... It's kind of concerning. ] Maybe I'm just overthinking it. Wouldn't be the first time I've done that!
no subject
[ she knows it's thanks in no small part to byleth; marianne doesn't need to be in the blue lions house to know that the professor's presence likely helped dimitri overcome his inner struggles. after all, he did the same with marianne not too long ago. it's good to know that despite the changes, this is something that remained the same. ]
I don't really understand it all either, but even if he is different from the professor who led our class... [ she hesitates, trying to find the right words. ] I know he's still important to me.
[ it'll take some time to adjust, but at the heart of it all, it's because of byleth that she was able to keep living. that's not something that will change regardless of his gender or his memories. ]
I think it is a little strange, [ her smile turns sheepish. ] It's a little surreal to be thinking about these things after all we've been through, isn't it?
no subject
I agree. [ Even if his feelings on the whole matter are a little complicated ( not only from the fact that teach chose someone else, but because claude himself was here before ), Byleth was still incredibly important to him. He needs to remember that. ] Teach will always be Teach no matter what.
[ Even if he needs to adjust a little. ]
You're right about that! [ He laughs a little. ] Being able to sit back and relax and think about things other than war or fighting is something we'll need to adjust to, it seems like. [ Still, Claude can't help but feel like there's a lot more to this place than what he's shown so far. He had to get to the bottom of this! ] But it's good for us. We need a vacation.
[ Or well... something like a vacation. They are in some random world with no real rhyme or reason. It's not exactly a standard vacation but again, strangeness with the Golden Deer class was basically a normal Tuesday for them. ]
sorry for the delay!
[ when was the last time they got to relax, or do anything aside from planning their next move and marching from one battlefield to another? marianne had never enjoyed fighting and the war brought so much pain and suffering on all sides, the idea of having any sort of vacation at all seemed unthinkable. ]
I know it will be a little difficult to truly relax, [ lol the scooby gang strikes again. ] But with all of us here, I know we'll get to the bottom of this.
no problem!!
[ But now Claude realizes he has to figure out what to do now. Out of all the Golden Deer, he was the busiest by far. He never really got any chance to relax, either because he couldn't or he just didn't want to. Now he's gotta find normal hobbies! ]
You're right. [ He grins. ] We'll definitely figure this out. We're still missing some from the herd, but I think we'll be fine with the deer we have now.
