▶ TDM .007
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. Even the few shy moon creatures you find in the wild have strange crystal growths on their hides. This is far from home— perhaps a dream? You pinch your skin and slap your cheeks, yet nothing seems to do the trick. Searching for answers yields nothing but an endless expanse of purple dust as far as the eye can see. You have four options: one, panic; two, soil yourself; three, admire it all then soil yourself; or four, go into survival mode. Eventually, you’ll realize that you’re not alone.
▶ Keep all Hands and Feet inside the Burning Vehicle at all Times
Iris Moon, Government Center (Arrival) and Outer Space | top
After a day or two of living off the crystal wilderness, a group of people find you worse for wear. They are the gallant Moon Knights from the planet of Prismatica. After the strange phenomenon 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? Why did I mix tequila with xanax last night? — 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.
While waiting for transport to be prepared, you may freely roam around the government center. Eventually you’re called back from exploring, escorted to the docks, and led onto a large transport vessel that makes frequent trips back and forth between the moons and the planet. Faces onboard vary from both old and new Moonblessed as well as Prismal locals. The next destination: Prismatica.
Sparks can be seen overhead as more ship parts malfunction. This is a good time to hold your neighbor’s hand, say your last goodbyes, and apologize for that horrible thing you did in the sixth grade. Grip your seat with the might of every god you can think of.
▶ Jaws IV: Jaws Harder
Planet Prismatica, Outer Lunatia | top
The emergency landing successfully completes and the transport vessel will safely land on top of a gorgeous lake filled with tiny glaciers floating by. When reached out and touched, you’ll find out that the “glaciers” are surprisingly cool crystals and not ice.
The ship will be left hovering idly on the water surface while passengers are ferried to solid ground using portable emergency boats. However, civilization is still a distance away.
After surviving through so far, the Prismals guide everyone to a nearby encampment run by humanoid rabbits. They are tall, built, and have a habit of mentioning their virility an awkward amount of times. They are also generous and will share their game meat and fresh crops while allowing everyone to rest for the night at the only inn in their village.
The next day, the rabbits can be seen hacking away at some of the wilder-looking plants for an easier pathway. If you wake up early enough, you can ask some of them for a tour of the beautiful greenery. They mention that it’s thanks to the Moonblessed that their crops have been doing so well lately — the result of all the chroma influx. The rest of the journey to the city will be smooth sailing.

Faces onboard vary from both old and new Moonblessed as well as Prismal locals. The next destination: Prismatica.
A. After settling into the ship and selecting the current in-flight movie, Back Door Slugs 9, you and those around you may eventually feel a bit of turbulence during the movie’s highly anticipated climax. Did anyone notice it, or is everyone too focused on the hot characters?
At first, it’s a small jitter that’s easy to miss or brush off. But as the transport vessel travels on, the shaking progressively escalates to erratic tremors strong enough to cause severe nausea. A minute later, a voice over the speaker announces the ship will have to make an emergency landing, citing technical difficulties.
Sparks can be seen overhead as more ship parts malfunction. This is a good time to hold your neighbor’s hand, say your last goodbyes, and apologize for that horrible thing you did in the sixth grade. Grip your seat with the might of every god you can think of.
B. Another minute later, a follow-up announcement states that external entities have breached the transport vessel. Everyone is warned to be careful and watch out for each other. Small fires will have to be put out before they worsen with either magic or emergency equipment onboard such as extinguishers. In-flight robotic attendants will be scuttling around to perform immediate repairs.
Eventually, an entire power panel bursts, and prismatic jellyfish unnaturally spill out. The jellyfish will try to latch and suction onto any technological devices close by such as the television screens on the seats or communicators and will show preference to Iris Moonblessed over the rest. Be ready to help and pull numerous jellyfish off both the faces of Moonblessed and Prismals!

A. You’ve probably heard of flying sharks from a veteran Moonblessed. But how about sea lions? These aquatic lions are born with scaly skin and gills outside of their crystallized manes. Unfortunately, they haven’t tasted fresh meat in quite some time. If there are any injured onboard or near your boat, the chances of the sea lions detecting people will be higher as they are drawn to the scent of blood. Growling hungrily, they will be quick to latch onto the boats, biting the edges, and trying to knock everyone overboard for dinner.

They are also generous and will share their game meat and fresh crops while allowing everyone to rest for the night at the only inn in their village.
B. There is no running water all the way out here, so if anyone wants a bath, they’ll have to do it traditionally. The village protects a natural spring, which is a good place to bathe away the sea water. Around the spring, the rabbit folk’s friends — little scintilla chinchillas — will shock away any predators that dare to approach their sanctuary! Be at ease and feel free to offer your friends shampoo massages.

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.
A. 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. A new high-end boutique, Prissy Polyp, has opened in Level 2. As compensation for what happened, both Moonblessed and Prismals that were affected in yesterday’s flight will receive 50% off their total purchase. Those unaffected will receive 30% discount coupons as a promotional gift. All are encouraged to visit with their friends or special someone, try on some things together,enjoy each other in the fitting rooms, and deal with the loud, ear-blistering background pop music.
Their clothing collections are characterized by bright iridescent designs, some features such as design patterns may glow ethereally in the dark. One of their signature dresses features a one piece (also available on their trench coats) that can amplify the appearance of one’s decolletage, gluteal muscles, and/or bulge with the press of a neon button. Another item among their collection is the maiden sweater: a sleek, backless sweater that shocks those who attempt unwanted touches. Others include skin-tight leggings (also available on their shorts or pants) which produce pleasant and relaxing vibrations on all lower extremities and fashionable polyp-shaped hats for all kinds of people. It’s a huge shop, you never know what else to find in there.

[ though let's be real - a lot of them would've known what anime she'd be binging for the day by now. yan qing may not have an ounce of shame at all, but osakabehime might actually rival him in that regard. almost. ]
W-Well, there's a difference between swimming and just taking a dip in the springs. And I can't just change into something like that in front of you. O-or anyone else for that matter...
[ give her a moment to pinch at her tummy and sigh. yeah, she's really let herself go... thanks for reminding her, man! ]
Anyway! Just hurry it up! This princess needs some alone time with her new friends!
no subject
Hey, I ain't the one watching that shit in public! Tsk, you're so uncute.
[ He's mostly just upset he got water in his eyes. ]
And don't rush me, alright? You're not the only one who wants some R&R. [ And it's not like she has anything to be ashamed about... He really doesn't get it. ] Besides, aincha gonna introduce me? Your super cool and handsome friend?
no subject
[ did she miss a memo or something? she's fine with the likes of liz, and kiyohime and tamamo have been there for her in some way or another, but an actual male friend? and a fellow servant at that? is that even possible? no, he's totally mistaken. he's just saying that to rile her up! jeez, hasn't she suffered enough since halloween?
she didn't realize that she's stewing in her own thoughts for some time, until one of the chinchillas nudge her out of overthinking. blinking, she looks at the critters on the ground, who are looking quite curious at yan qing here. but he shouldn't be all that bad if he's able to placate their territorial habits, right?
...sigh. ]
They can't really understand me anyway, but... [ she gestures her hands toward him. ] This "super cool" and "handsome" guy is a total jerk, so don't expect too much from Shin-Shin here. Rather, your kind should depend on a total cutie princess like me! Got it? ♡
1/2
... Well, at least that doesn't sound like a rejection. Yay! He's quick to bounce back, playing along as he addresses the chinchillas. ]
Sorry to burst your bubble, but being a "total cutie" is the only thing she's good at. Ladies and gentlechillas, you won't find anyone more reliable than the great—!
[ Pause. ]
no subject
[ That is, if she's going around calling him things like Tattooed Mafia and Shin-Shin... Maybe she would call him those names regardless, but still. ]
Damn, so much for an introduction.
no subject
[ at least she's not calling him Tattooed Mafia anymore? but seriously, the nerve of this guy. breaking into her precious castle and having a hand in foiling her plans of eternal solitude - yet not even bothering to tell her his True Name. then again, it isn't as though she's made an effort to actually get to know him better either, now that they're both working in Chaldea under the same master. ]
But... I guess we've got to know each other a bit more in order to survive here and stuff. [ gulps. she's really bad at this. this is just like those really intimate episodes of those slice-of-life anime that delves a bit deeper on the characters' personalities, isn't it? but why with yq of all people.....
er-hem, no. she can be serious about this. it's not like she has her castle to run back into anyway. ] You already know what my deal is, so - who are you?
no subject
[ No, he knows he brought it up. He's just being difficult.
But let it be known that he doesn't dodge questions without a reason. Yan Qing tucks his hair behind his ear as he hums in thought, his amusement lingering on the corner of his lip. ]
Do you like books, Okki?
no subject
[ she needs inspiration for her manuscripts other than the stuff she gleans from her computer screen, after all.
in fact, this change of topic alone puts her at ease just a little bit, tilting her head at yan qing curiously. ]
Are you from one, then?
no subject
[ Suikoden is a household name, so he's being a shit again.
The next topic makes his eyes widen as he realizes something. ]
Come to think of it, I dunno your favorite genre. What are you into? Action? Horror? Romance?
no subject
she's a little taken aback by his question though, and she twiddles her thumbs together as she goes off. ]
Oh, um... I don't really have a favorite? I can get into anything that's trending, really. I have all the time in the world, after all.
But I guess I have a thing for fantasy? A huge plus when there's a princess where I can learn from, hehe. Action's pretty good too, especially when they adapted into games that I can play. You've been in my room a couple times before, Shin-Shin, so you should have a good idea by now.
[ and boy is she into a Lot. ]
1/2
It sounds suffocating.]
I guess I do! For a princess, your room's such a mess that I can't get in there without stepping on something, but I think I'm starting to memorize what and where everything is at this point, wahahaha!
[Dodging the question and taking a jab at her pack rat tendencies in one.]
Then it's settled! I'll tell ya.
no subject
1/2 yana im dying
she flusters at that other comment he made, and kicks another shower of water to his face. ]
I-It's called an organized mess, I'll have you know! I wouldn't be able to remember where everything would be if I started cleaning up--
[ huffs! she'll get use to his ribbing in due time. ]
no subject
N-No way! I mean I'm planning to, but not while you're around! I still have to take my clothes off a-and... shouldn't your skin be all pruney this entire time by now? Shin-Shin, you meanie!
hard same
My skin is perfect! Your cutesy act ain't gonna work on me! [Yan Qing splashes back, but not at her face because some people here are gentlemen.] And... [He groans, as if to say come on. ] I'm not gonna watch you change. And I'm sure your swimsuit looks great. Besides...
[He wades toward her and puts on his best pout.]
Playing alone in the water is soooo booooring. [Isn't he just the saddest boy? Look, he'll even tug on her hoodie.] I'm lonelyyyy. Meanie Okki won't play with meeeeeee.
[And with that, the tables have turned...]
no subject
maybe it should be fine. ]
All right, all right already. Just don't whine anymore, it makes you sound even stupider. [ says the eternal whiner. she carefully gets up on her feet, dusting her dress off. ] I'll go change over there. P-Promise not to look, okay?
[ even though she can just magic herself into it asap... she's baby, okay. it won't take her too long to go into the woods to poof into a swimsuit that won't drastically change up her saint graph and come back to the springs again anyway. she's still rather shy though, face thoroughly red. ]
There. Happy now? I'm gonna enter the water like you asked so that you won't ever look at... N-Never mind.
[ she means her waist, but she doesn't want to mention it in case yq's gonna continue being an ass when she completely submerges herself in the water. ]
no subject
Ohhh, lookin' good, Okki! Hahahaha, what're you acting so shy for? Here, I'll help you out.
[Because if there's anything he's good at (and he is good at a lot of things), it's being a hype man. He clears his throat and begins speaking in a deeper, announcer-like voice, pretending to read from his imaginary cards.]
Aaaand hailing from the hauntingly beautiful castle of Himeji, we have contestant number 8: the gorgeous and talented Miss Osakabehime! [Then he cups his hands around his mouth and makes the sound of a crowd screaming because he's a dork.] This is the part where you strut down the catwalk and strike a pose. I see Medb do it all the time.
no subject
[ she's the obligatory shy girl who doesn't look too bad in swimsuits, duh! her self-esteem is practically nonexistent, but she'll give props for yq for lifting her spirits a little. just a tiny bit.
she stomps down the imaginary catwalk instead and dives into the water, splashing yq for the nth time in the process. so much for his canonical beauty, huh. even though he'd still look pretty when wet, goddammit. ]
I'm in, yay~! But it's not really a competition when it's just me, huh.
1/2
You know what? You're right.
no subject
Let it be known that he's only hot when he stops doing things. ]
Hahaha, gotcha! Now we're even!
no subject
[ it's super effective! she wipes at her face, wrinkling her nose before smacking yq back with water again. he's annoying, but... it's working, she's not as depressed as she was while earlier. ]
S-Stop, stop! We're not here for that! You owe me a story, remember?
1/2
Hehe. Right, right! I remember. Well, it sounds like you want me to start from the beginning. Ah, it's the first time a princess has been so interested in me! I'm getting kinda nervous! I'm no Shakes or Scheherazade, so cut me some slack, okay?
[ Without warning, he wraps an arm around her shoulder and gestures toward the horizon. ]
It all started when my parents died in an alleyway in Gotham City...
no subject
Uh, I'm kidding. I don't really like telling this part, sorry. Or any other part of it. My parents did die, though...
no subject
her shoulders tense at being grabbed so casually and -- oh, that's kind of awkward to hear nonetheless. osakabehime didn't have parents at all as a youkai, nor does she know how it feels to have one in the first place, so she absolutely has no idea on how to react to that. ]
Y-Y-You don't have to tell me everything from the top... Just the important details of your legend should do it. O-Or you can just tell me what your True Name is! I won't judge, no way...
