Floating Islet: And Sugar, We're Going Down Swinging
While new arrivals may generally be expected at this time of the month, one factor that has continuously failed to maintain consistency is their point of arrival. And indeed, it appears that this month has once again exceeded even the Storyteller's expectations as to where arrivals may take their first steps on this world.
In fact, that sensation would be the island itself, starting to sink out of the sky.
So that's nice.
On a crash course for the ground at F6, the Storyteller will eventually slow the island's progress to the ground below, though a rather profound impact is, simply put, inevitable. Characters with the ability of flight will find the island skimming low enough to reach on their own. Others may wish to utilize their resourcefulness to find an alternate means down.
Or, perhaps, you'll simply deal with whatever awaits you at the crash site.
F6 and Beyond: In An Earlier Round
Thankfully, the Storyteller's intervention will ensure that no one still on the not-so-floating island upon impact will escape with minor injuries at worst, the island itself crumbling to pieces and taking down more than a few thick trees. The pieces of the island will very quickly begin to blacken, crumbling underfoot as the floating island turns to dust. Anyone still aboard may wish to make a very quick departure.
The ripples of this impact, however, are far more significant than two pieces of land bumping up against one another.
[ ♆ ] Some may find their weapons are... behaving oddly, though all are still functional. Weapons, in this instance, may also include fisticuffs, if the intent is to use your fists as a weapon.Though many of these may be hindering or even dangerous in the right situations, they are, for the most part, passive. The Storyteller will assure anyone who asks that these oddities will disappear in the next few days.
[ ♆ ] Equally as irritating are those who find themselves coming down with a severe case of NPCitus: periods of time in which they find themselves incapable of saying more than one or two lines of the same, repetitive dialogue.
[ ♆ ] Equal parts nostalgic and irritating for some are the instances of lag (walking forwards, only to find oneself back where they started), Swimmer's Ear (incapable of movement unless swimming through the air), and clipping (suddenly stuck halfway through the nearest rock are all common, regrettable side-effects).
[ ♆ ] Other unfortunate side-effects may also transpire, as varied and wild as one's imagination.
You are free to create or utilize glitches you are particularly fond of, though keep in mind that any potential content warnings should be mentioned in your toplevel! You may peruse some of the past glitches here, or create your own along those lines! And a special thanks to our local Donn-mun, Jake (
venesection), for the first glitch on the list!All new arrivals will awake with knapsacks, their names stitched to the front. The contents of said knapsacks can all be found in your acceptance notices!
As a final note to those who participated in the Test Drive Meme, bear in mind that those threads, if all parties involved would like, can be game canon in the form of dream-like memories involving a place very much like this one, though the layout is considerably different.
Feeling a tad adrift? Make sure to check the Locations Page, which has details regarding the starting areas and a handy map for those who feel better with a bird's eye view!

[The tree you're going past is talking, Lance.
Actually, it's not the tree. It's the person who's hanging upsidedown from the tree. How did Connor get like this? Fuck if he knows, but it's happening so whatever.]
no subject
I don't know, it's kind of selling that this place is definitely nowhere I've been before. Seems more like a feature to me.
[He's going to scoot more towards the tree than the...gaping hole in the water. He doesn't trust that.]
You, uh, you been up there long?
no subject
[Translation: probably a while, but he literally doesn't have the spoons to actually care about his current situation.]
We're all just in some kid's snowglobe.
no subject
[..............]
You want help getting down or are you just going to wait for things to get shaken up?

[Connor holds out his hands. It's possibly worth noting that his nails are freakishly well-maintained given that he otherwise kind of looks like a hobo. They're currently blue wirh black tips. God, at some point he needs to ask for more colors from the Storyteller.
Anyway, I said I'd spend like three paragraphs describing the state of this disaster so: his jeans have seen better days, because you probably shouldn't wear secondhand jeans for six months straight. The battered army surplus jacket he arrived in wasn't doing well even before he ended up on Ensō and wiped blood down the front. There was an attempt to wash it out, but eventually he just gave up and left it. Blood is punk rock, right?
His hair is pulled back into a shitty manbun, which is good because he definitely only washes it like once a month and absolutely doesn't own a hairbrush. Or a comb. But, you know. At least his boots look good.]
no subject
On the other hand everything else about this joker is just...Messy, to put it very very politely. He's used to messy. Sometimes messy is The Look.
But this is just the kind of messy that comes from not taking care of yourself, he thinks, and he can't believe there's more people like that then just Keith. Still, just because Connor is a disaster hobo he's not going to not help.
He'll just grab Connor's hand and give him a tug.]
I hope we both don't get stuck. That'd blow.
no subject
[Connor unclips out of the tree relatively easily, which. Unfortunately, now he's beholden to the laws of gravity and falling so maybe Lance should let go of him before he pulls Lance down with him. It's not like Connor weighs a lot, but he's still like a hundred and sixty pounds of dead weight so.]
no subject
[Not nice enough to let himself be a landing pad for Connor, though. He lets go as soon as it seems he's clear, skittering backwards before he gets knocked on his ass. Sorry, buddy.]
no subject
Yeah. Super nice. Thanks. Love it.
no subject
[He feels a little bad.]
You got out, at least! No slow death for you today.
[He crouches down, patting Connor on the shoulder.]
