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 this a normal conversation…? Why is he acting like this isn’t totally bizarre?!]

Don’t call me pudding boy! I have a name, you know!

[And stop calling him delicious!!]

He stops in the middle of his current burger, completely silent as he looks over the teen with a careful nod.

Well? What is it?

[Why is he so tall and buff, it’s so intimidating. This is so much worse then talking to Tsunashi Ryuunosuke…]

Haruka Isumi. You better remember it!

[A sigh, almost disappointed.]

That doesn't sound like a good pudding name.

[personal profile] townmusician 2023-05-15 03:10 am (UTC)(link)
Of course it doesn’t, because I’m not a pudding!! Or some sort of pudding ambassador!!

[Thank god Yotsuba isn’t here, or all this pudding stuff would be even worse.]

[personal profile] gluttoning 2023-05-15 03:14 am (UTC)(link)
There's pudding ambassadors????

[this is the best thing he's heard all day!]
townmusician: (pic#16454334)

[personal profile] townmusician 2023-05-15 03:16 am (UTC)(link)
What else would you call the brand ambassador for a pudding company?!

[this is a stupid conversation]
gluttoning: (038)

[personal profile] gluttoning 2023-05-15 03:24 am (UTC)(link)
I'd call them really lucky!!!

[how could they not be, it's pudding!

He's so happy. :)]

[Sir?]

You’re real easy to please, aren’t you…
gluttoning: (024)

[personal profile] gluttoning 2023-05-15 08:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Maybe. So long as the food is good, I can't really complain.

Heheh... pudding...

[Is that a dog growling? No, it's his stomach. Oh well. Good think Haruka isn't a pudding after all!]

[personal profile] townmusician 2023-05-16 01:20 am (UTC)(link)
…Maybe you should just go get some pudding, then. It’d be a better use of time then talking to these people.

After we're done.

I tried to stay at the buffet, because I didn't feel like listening to announcements just yet. But the cat robots wouldn't let me.
townmusician: (Default)

[personal profile] townmusician 2023-05-17 11:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, you showed up and heard the important part, so… Maybe it’s fine to leave.

[Before he tries to get a bite of Haruka.]
gluttoning: (037)

[personal profile] gluttoning 2023-05-17 11:18 pm (UTC)(link)
[HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM




Pudding.....

...

Maybe. I'll see if I can try.

[The second the announcement is made that they're all done, he is beelining back to the buffet.]

Good luck.

[So long, space demonboy………]
