▶ 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.

Clint Barton | MCU | Cordis
Whose flying this thing?
[ Its the only thing he can think or say as he grips onto the arm rest for dear life. All he knows is if he was in the pilot’s seat things would be going a lot smoother.
And that’s when the jellyfish attack.
He doesn’t even have time get in a good “what the fuck?” before he’s in motion. Because the jellyfish seem to be targeting people and latching on to their faces and well, that really can’t be good. For anyone. ]
I’m sorry if this hurts.
[ Is the only warning they get before he’s pulling jellyfish off someone’s face. Its really been a long day and he has a feeling it’s not over yet. ]
B. Hot Springs because how can I not?
[ A dip in a hot spring sounds amazing after the day he’s had, so he doesn’t even have to be convinced to follow the human rabbit to the spring. EVen if he’s still trying to wrap his head around humanoid rabbits, and even if he needs to keep brushing away its advances. He’s married afterall…
Once he shakes them he finds a secluded area and strips off his clothes, sinking down into the water with a grateful sigh. ]
C. Walk Walk Fashion Baby
[ Clint does not want to be in these clothes anymore, he’s not really one to wear a tact suit as a casual outfit and since they are giving a discount he figures he might as well pick up something to wear. Only...well he’s not sure what he was expecting but this isn’t the clothing he’s used to.
He’s browsing the store casually, and a little bewildered. He could probably use some help. ]
I just want some jeans and a t-shirt.
D. Wildcard
[ Don’t see anything that grabs you? Have a different idea? Feel free to toss up a different prompt or hit me up on plurk
@ 01
You may have been on to something with that whole retiring idea a few years back...
[ This is just — nope. She makes her crack with a half smile, tired. Hi. ]
no subject
Wanda?
[ She's not supposed to be here. She's...well she's gone. First Natasha and now Wanda. What is this place? ]
no subject
[ Her smile gets wider. ]
Are you okay?
no subject
Shouldn’t I be asking you that? You just had a jellyfish trying to suck your face off.
[ Not a sentence he every thought he would say. ]
What are you doing here? How did you get here?
[ Wanda hadn’t survived the snap. How was she here? Then again natasha was also here. ]
no subject
I got here the same way as you, and the last thing I remember from home is turning to dust, so I'm assuming I'm still dust as far as you remember. So, either you're not hallucinating or we're both tripping out hard.
[ Said in a way that more than implies she's going with the former. ]
no subject
I knew the 80s were going to come back and bite me in the ass.
[ He reaches out and pulls her into a hug. It’s good to see her, he’s missed her these last few years and until recently he thought he would never see her again. ]
Considering I don’t actually know how we got here that doesn’t answer the question. Yeah, it’s been a few years since...the snap.
no subject
I was going to ask about those years, but honestly the more important question — questions, rather — that come up here are: When exactly do I get funny eighties stories and why exactly haven't I heard any before now?
[ A short pause to lead up to the dramatic and sarcastic end of: ]
I feel so betrayed right now.
[ And now she has to laugh a little. ]
no subject
Trust me, you don’t want to hear those stories. It will ruin your image of me.
[ He lets her go and takes a step back, not too far but enough so they can talk. A quick glance around shows the the jellyfish problem is being taken care of and doesn’t need their immediate attention. ]
Let’s just say there may or may not have been a circus involved.
no subject
[ a circus, yes excellent; good luck getting her to ever drop this. ]
That aside, I am glad to see you. Despite present circumstances.
[ JELLYFISH. of all things. not the worst, but also...why. ]
no subject
I'm glad to see you too, you have no idea how glad. How long have you been here?
no subject
C
[Yosuke was checking out the new place himself, because hey discount! But uh, yeah, these clothes were a bit much. This world was very much the 80s but even the 80s have jeans and t-shirts thankfully. Just clearly not at this store. Even if he doesn't work here though, he can see a confused customer when he sees one.
Thanks dad for making him work at Junes. He pulled his headphones down and set them around his neck. He's also very much just wearing... jeans and a t-shirt.]
It won't be discounted, but I can show you the place where I got some of my clothes, sir.
no subject
So they do have normal clothes in this city? That's a relief. I won't turn down being pointed in the right direction.
no subject
[He gestures to follow him and leads him out of the store.]
They're a bit more... colorful here, but for the most part normal enough. I feel like they're allergic to neutral colors sometimes.
[Well now he was wondering how Souji survived or even found any sort of gray or neutral colors around here.]
no subject
[ He can see the resemblance though. It’s a lot of neon. He follows, which may or may not be a great idea. He doesn’t know this kid, and he doesn’t know if he about to get mugged, or attempted mugged- he’s fairly sure he would be fine in a fight. But the kid looked honest enough, so off he goes. ]
I can deal with some color, as long at it’s not trying to electrocute people. What’s your name kid?
no subject
[He snorted softly with a laugh. But it was true, it wasn’t exactly the 80’s but near enough.]
I’m Yosuke.
[Yosuke is pretty harmless, Clint, no worries. Personas aside anyway.]
no subject
[ If he knows that a person can get used to this place it’s probably longer than just a few days. Which makes him frown. It’s one thing for him to get pulled into some alien planet with no way home. He’s really got nothing back home- except a mission that’s he’s trying real hard not to think about. But Yosuke is just a kid.
, he probably has a family, friends, a whole life ahead of him.
His fatherly instincts are probably gonna kick in at some point. ]
no subject
[He shoved his hands into his pockets as he glanced up at Clint.]
Three months? Somewhere around there. I have friends here who’ve been here longer though. This whole... thing [A vague hand gesture around them.] started about six months ago. No one really has any or is giving us any answers though. Not the ones we want, anyway.
[Yosuke’s friends, most of them, arrived here, but there’s still a few he misses at home and definitely his parents and Teddie. He tried not to let it show but it was hard not to look bummed at saying that. He offered a smile, though.]
Having people you know here can make it a little easier, though.
b
The circumstances were unusual but everything else? It could all be explained away in one way or the other. The advanced technology reminded him of where he'd come from. Sentient creatures? They could be robotic or similar. The moonblessings he'd heard of, all of that? He'd concern himself with it when it became more relevant than it was right now.
Besides, Luba didn't mind the change in scenery given what had happened.
He's drawn away, lost in thought when someone else slips into the water. It's Luba's fault for hiding behind the foliage, pressed back into the steam and moss where he couldn't be seen. Luba waves a hand. ] It's lovely, isn't it? [ Idle chatter. ] I suppose you came to relax... [ He opens an eye and seeing his new partner, sits up a little straighter. His shoulder drops, head tips, and his mouth curves up. ] Or, you've come to see me?
