IT'S A MINOR BLIP IN TIME

Maybe you were showering, or sleeping, having breakfast. You might have been participating in your morning commute or fighting off a horde of zombies.

Whatever you were in the middle of, a strange sensation of disconnection comes over you, as though you're watching your life on screen, a passive audience to the proceedings. It's almost like, well, being sucked down the drain like every adolescent nightmare, the feeling of disconnection replaced quickly with a pain so deep, it's as though every atom of your being is pressed too closely together, and your vision goes dark. Then, just as quickly as the pain came over it, it's gone, reality snapping back into place like a stretched rubber band.


WELCOME TO NEW YORK CITY


When your eyes adjust, you find yourself in a slightly spartan room, standing on a platform that seems to be made of glass or some sort of crystal. Energy currents in blues and greens swirl within it, dizzying and hypnotizing if stared at for too long. You're shocked from the vision by a cheery, bubbly voice that belongs to a petite brunette grinning at you from the base of the steps that lead down from the platform. She apologizes for any inconvenience you may have been caused, and hands you a small package, explaining that inside you'll find a phone, a directory of locations within the complex you've arrived in, a charge card with a balance of $500, and a key to a room in the dormitories which can be reached by following the green line on your directory.

She apologizes again for how confusing this must all be, but assures you that everything will make sense soon!

OOC NOTES: Feel free to hit up any of the NPC starters, start your own threads under any of the locations provided, or start your own threads independent of the starters! Prose or brackets are welcomed! Once characters leave the Receiving Room, they will have full access to the Network, and you're free to post there as well!

You weren't? How come?

[He was curious to know how people others so seeing differences was interesting.]

[Grace frowns.]

He didn't say but I think he wanted me to be safe.

Makes sense. He's being a good father that way.

[it made him smile at least for a moment, but his mind had been questioning a few thing lately.]

Although being alone is not nice, but if it keeps one safe, it's good.

[Grace smiles.]

I'm used to being alone.

I'm sorry to hear that, but you seem okay about it.

[Which he wasn't sure if it was a good thing or not. It was hard to figure out when he didn't know them at all.]
allineedisyou: (Is that what it is?)

Forest

[personal profile] allineedisyou 2016-08-26 03:46 pm (UTC)(link)
I am.

[Her father wouldn't want her to be sad.]

I'm getting tired though. I'm going to find my room. The woman I met when I arrived told me where I was staying.]

Ah, then I'll let you go back. I might stick around here a little longer myself though.

[He didn't feel as tired yet and he just wanted to see where he could at least wonder to.]
