WELCOME

INTRO



Whoever you are, wherever you were, the last thing you remember is the salty smell of the sea breeze and a distinct tickle of electricity across your body. Enough to cause alarm perhaps, but in the next moment it all goes black, or blue to be more precise. When you stir into consciousness, those fuzzy sensations are all that you have as an explanation, though there's certainly more to experience around you.

The warm bright rays of the sun, the rhythmic cresting of the waves into the shore, the unfortunate feeling of sand sticking to you everywhere, because you're lying flat on your back on a beach without a beach towel. At least you're not alone, and at least it doesn't seem like you've been completely dumped unceremoniously, as there's orderly space between you and the 27 others who share your predicament. Whoever left you here probably could have dumped you into a pile, but they have better manners than that.

However you decide to react to your sudden vacation, you'll find that you're dressed just as you last recall and that you have at least one possession of yours on hand. Whatever else you had on you appears to be affected by baggage routing, unfortunately. You'll also find a key inscribed with a particular bird and a strange device in your pocket, ostenstibly some type of cellphone from the period when blackberrys were all the rage. A pop-up window will greet you when you turn on the device, prompting you to pick a username (this pop-up can be ignored for up to 24 hours) and also walking you through a basic tutorial on its functions. For now, it seems like the public network isn't running, but the direct message function is availiable. It ends with a cheerful blurb instructing that "For further questions and help, please contact one of the hotel staff!"

As there's nary a soul that seems to actually work here on the beach proper, it might be worth it to explore. Around the resort are robots manning the buffet, sweeping, and even making cocktails if you want to drink your problems away. While they'll answer to basic commands, provide you with a map of the island, or even be happy to tell you the weather, they're incapable of engaging in any meaningful dialogue. Any questions or demands they can't answer will yield the statement to please contact the administrators.

Whoever they may be, but they'll show their faces eventually. Probably.
((OOC: Welcome to Last Resort! Poke a mod in the discord if you have any questions. The NPC meet and greet will take place at 5PM EST/2PM PST today! ))

Is it really...

[It doesn't seem like that big of a deal to him? He's young, spry, and after being back in Japan for so long a more Western style of bed is kind of... weird.

Also, in the words of one Kujou Tenn: he's rude but obedient! He could be so much worse!]


If I wasn't sure, I wouldn't have offered!! It's not that deep!

I'm just saying! I mean, you were the one who asked if we really had to share just a minute ago.

Did a 180 on that pretty quick when we all don't know how well cohabiting is really going to go just yet, hee hee.

[Stop, you’ll expose him for being tsundere!!]

Well I don’t want to share a bed with a strange, older man!

[A beat.]

N-no offense, but it might be easier then fighting about it…

Hee hee. No offense taken!

[ another beat. ]

Though all things considered, I think you and I will be the easier ones to figure out here...

...Because we're smaller?

[not haruka being shorter then the kirby character.]

I guess that's a good point...

That, and ... Well, we're actually talking so far.

[ the other two. uh. ]

[…


Damn, he’s got a point.]


Maybe they’d be fine sharing…? They can just lay there in silence and maybe that would be okay.

That's the best case scenario, probably! I mean, it'd be great if we could all get along, but I'm not going to hold my breath or anything.

I think that's very much wishful thinking, but I think awkward, tense silences are probably still better then like... fighting and screaming... I don't think either of them would be like that...

[Haruka, on the other hand.]

Hmm, I don't think it'll come to that. At least not yet, anyway. There's no real point in trying to pick a fight when we all barely know each other and don't know how long we're going to be stuck with each other for.

Besides, nothing good ever comes of fighting.

…That feels like a statement that’s way too deep for roomie conflicts…

[does the kirby character have a dark, mysterious past]
