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.

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!

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.





It’s Free Real-Estate
Level 2, 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.

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.

[The suddenness of her movement and her... "battle cry" are enough to wake him up fully again, sitting up as all of his nerves and instincts get ready for a fight. He doesn't know what powers she has, if any, but start off simple, evade and aim for the head, see how she reacts, gauge her ability, adjust and beat her down into the



... She's just standing there with a growling stomach.

That jolt of adrenaline settles back down to irritation, and he scowls at her. ]


Are you nuts or just annoying? I'm starting to think you need to be bound and gagged so I can get some shut-eye.
leekspins: (Erk...!)

[personal profile] leekspins 2019-09-13 01:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Ha ha!

[WAIT NO! They're fighting, she's not supposed to find his answer funny. Orihime gives her head a quick shake.]

Is that your kkkk...

...

You're probably really into...

...

[Her face is getting red. This is a lot harder than she thought it would be! She rubs the back of her head.]

You'll...have to gag yourself first to stop picking fights in the middle of the night?

[Yeah, that works!]
sarcaskick: (god i just want to punch his face)

[personal profile] sarcaskick 2019-09-14 04:38 pm (UTC)(link)
...

[He relaxes again - but this time it's a deliberate motion, almost like a Cheshire cat in the way he grins at her, arms folded across his chest as he leans back against the headboard.]

No, please, go back to what you were going to say. I'm dying to know what you were thinking of.
leekspins: (Surprised - A Little)

[personal profile] leekspins 2019-09-14 04:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Really?

[That surprises her. Most people would want to gloss over something that uncomfortable. He looks like he's less agitated, though, so that's a good thing.]

I was going to say "that's probably your kink!", but was worried that might make the rest of the night awkward. Especially if you're new and not used to the moonlacing stuff.

[Because that's definitely the boat she's in, so she figured it was part of what made him cranky too.]

I guess you're not as shy as I thought!
sarcaskick: (what a smarmy douche)

[personal profile] sarcaskick 2019-09-14 05:05 pm (UTC)(link)
[Oh... from the way her face reddened he thought she'd be uncomfortable, but it seems like she's just weird. That's kind of a disappointment, but eh. He'll live.]

Believe it or not, sex happens outside of messed-up alternate realities. Besides, we're going to be asleep for the night anyway, and it's not like I'm hanging around for chitchat in the morning.

[A pause, as his head tilts just slightly to one side.]

Unless you wanted to get bound and gagged.
leekspins: (Wait wait wait hold on!)

[personal profile] leekspins 2019-09-14 05:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Er...not really. I do need Chroma, but that's a little extreme.

[She hasn't really thought about what she would or wouldn't like if she had sex, if only because she's not really planning on it ever happening. She still has no idea what to do about Ichigo being in the city, and whether or not she should reach out to him or hold back to save him from embarrassment.]

[So she sits down at the foot of his bed, resting her arms in her lap.]


I thought you probably needed Chroma too but didn't know how to ask without sounding too forward.
sarcaskick: (dirt off yo shoulder)

[personal profile] sarcaskick 2019-09-14 05:16 pm (UTC)(link)
[She's probably not wrong. It's not like he's been holding hands or trading kisses since his arrival - he's kept to himself when possible, and when he's interacted with others it's been

well

negative.

Getting laid would have been one thing - it feels good, scratches an itch, and he can just move on afterward. But with that off the table he rolls his eyes, making a "shoo" motion with one hand.]


Not interested in cuddling, thanks but but no thanks. And what do you think you're doing? Off the bed, now.
leekspins: (But whyyyyyy?)

[personal profile] leekspins 2019-09-14 05:22 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm just sitting here. You're not sleeping anyway.

[He'd have to lie back down to stretch out his legs and push her off. She'd move if he did that, but for now, she's still trying to figure him out.]

You're sure? Your reiatsu feels really low.

[Not that she's all that familiar with what it feels like when he's at a normal level of energy, but he must have used up a lot of Chroma fighting against those sea lions earlier, especially if he hasn't touched anyone all day.]

If you're really embarrassed, you can just let your hand dangle over the side of the bed and I'll hold it for a while after you're asleep. Then you'll wake up feeling refreshed!
sarcaskick: (heard you talkin shit)

[personal profile] sarcaskick 2019-09-14 05:33 pm (UTC)(link)
I said no.

[Now let's be clear, this isn't exactly a smart decision on his part. He can feel the unique brand of exhaustion that comes with chroma depletion, and it's not like he doesn't believe that it's dangerous to not replenish it often enough.

But gods, is he stubborn.]


I'm not here to be your energy dispenser either, so drop it.
leekspins: (Bundled Up)

[personal profile] leekspins 2019-09-14 05:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, you're not. I was just going to recharge once we got back to the city originally.

[Setsuna is pretty great! Definitely a lot nicer, too. This guy does need Chroma, but she can't figure him out.]

[She did her best, though. If he wants to be left alone, then it's best that she does. So she slides off the foot of the bed, stretches out the kinks in her back, and drags the blanket and pillow to the wall so that she's next to the window, perpendicular to where the bed is set up so he doesn't have to be scared she'll grab his hand.]

Better?
