[mingle] world zero: game on!
world zero: game on!
The sun is shining, the birds are singing, and because this is the Isle of Champions - they will be singing forever. You step through an Airport much like the one that you witnessed in The Space - but this one is bustling with life. Streamers and banners line every inch of the walls, praising athletes and bold font encouraging each kingdom to take home the gold!! Haggard assistants run through the airport terminal with luggage carts, and lines of fans with cameras and items they’d like signed wait behind ropes that keep them all in one place.
A few steps in, a jingling tone and vibration might alert you to something in your pocket. Investigating it will reveal a cell phone - and a message just for you!
For Everyone:
One (1) New Message
Welcome to all athletes, supporters, merchants, and esteemed guests to The Isle of Champions for the 10th Annual War Games! The island has been gifted with the latest technology in order to help ensure efficiency and comfort during your visit. Please utilize the digital maps and assistants in order to make it to your hotel and destinations beyond. Thank you for your patronage, and victory to us all!
But what's this…? It looks as though Original Individuals will find that their text message continues:
Bet You Thought You'd Seen the Last of Me? ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ
If you can read this… (๑ↀᆺↀ๑)✧ It looks like your soul didn't assimilate as well as the others!!
Here's the skinny: Welcome to… the magic Olympics!! (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧ Your mission is the same! Laugh! Cry! Regain the pieces of yourself that were once lost!
（｀・ω・）ゞ And maybe kick some ass at sportsball while you're at it!!
Uhh, oh, let me catch you up to speed though—
Original characters will then find themselves with a very, very brief summary of what their Remixed life would have been - but it only pertains to facts about themselves, like their kingdom and occupation! There's no mention of their relationships with the other characters. For those of you who haven't crafted possible Remixed lives, you'll only get:
( ⚆ _ ⚆ ) Um… Backstory not found?
… Feel free to wing it! (☞ﾟヮﾟ)☞
Let's continue on our adventure, shall we!
The Isle of Champions is a bustling city, and you'll have to make it through Downtown to actually get to your destination. Whether you're on foot or grabbed a car, you'll see the shops and tourists fill the streets! Every restaurant and dessert shop seems to have its own special gimmick item for the Games, and some people might give you dirty looks on the street if they see you repping a snowcone with a different Kingdom emblem than their own. Phew, competitive much? But more than that, you'll see merchandise for all the different athletes that are competing in the Games - see a familiar face on there? Maybe even if you're own? Or are you going to be the person that buys all your friends' merch just to embarrass them later?
The Hotel where you might want to drop off your stuff - if you have... stuff....? - is about as glamorous as you would expect! It's a structure that's been renovated and improved with each incarnation of the Games, which is a rather fortunate thing as you might notice that reporters, politicians, and other big wigs are assigned to stay here. Other general fans and spectators might have their rooms here, if they didn't get a more inexpensive room in a different inn downtown, but they're definitely on the first ten floors as opposed to eleven and up which sound like they're reserved for the fancy shmancy folks.
But you might also be led to this location with the talk of the Gala that'll be held halfway through the Games - all throughout the first two weeks, it looks like people are getting ready for it! The Grand Ballroom on the second floor of the hotel has a set of double doors where only volunteers and staff can enter - maybe you can find a way in? However there apparently seems to be an odd legend that revolves around the Gala. If you fistbump your rival at midnight, you will both see each other in the Finals for your event the following Games. So? Do you think you're gonna get bumped? ;)
Well, where are the stars of the show anyway....? It looks like Victory Village is where all the athletes are stationed!! All the athletes will be dorming here, and each of them have their own room! Who can say what their situations with their neighbors might be like though - hopefully they get along! All the amenities can be found here - along with a number of luxurious add-ons. There's a 24/7 kitchen open to the athletes, with chefs from all around the world ready to cater to their needs. Not to mention training facilities, because this is about sportsball at the end of the day. Probably. Athletes will find a floor dedicated entirely to virtual reality simulations of every single sport that they might desire. Anyone within the room will begin the simulation with them! Isn't that fun?
And of course... The War Games Arena is majestic. A sight to see. It gleams against the sunlight, holding all the hopes and dreams of every athlete that wanted to compete. Each day holds a new event, and each day the athletes of each kingdom will compete to see how high they can place. Inside are the usual locker rooms, the stands with the thousands of screaming fans, and of course the VIP Lounge and Press Box. Well, surely there's a way to visit if you're really curious enough to get a sneak peek at what it might be like inside.
Finally, every inch of the island itself is gorgeous. The sunsets are famous here, and the beaches have only the softest sand and unfathomably massive swells of waves. Yet the interesting bit is that it seems like all throughout - a line of technology runs. Questions as simple as "Where am I?" will prompt a virtual screen to seemingly appear out of thin air, giving you a map of the island to navigate yourself. Though there may be an occasion where a little spot of fire, or a rain of ice, can be seen out of the corner of your eye - only for it to disappear entirely. Well… maybe they're just working some bugs out. Everything innovative requires a little bit of tinkering before it's fixed!
Welcome to your first world hop - World Zero: Game On! Please utilize this post, as well as the AU Plotting Post for all your reference needs. Questions are also welcomed to be sent to Dana at any time

[He frowns! But he doesn't raise his voice or try any harder to actually get Kano to stop teasing him.]
It isn't for me. Do you want the money? Get him to make one.
no subject
I get it, I get it~ I'm pretty confident in my ability to harass him until he makes one too!
[ Sorry Lan Wangji, Kano is coming for you and it's all Haku's fault. ]
Gimme two hours to get back to you! Where're you gonna be? Can you, like, just stand right here and don't move for two hours?
no subject
No. [God. Stand here for TWO hours?] I won't leave this area. I'll be in one of the shops. [Good luck.
He might also be in a fucking clinic since SOMEONE just let him get hit by a car. He has to make sure nothing is damaged before his attempt.]
no subject
Gotcha~ I'll look around for you here, then! If I can't find you, I'm gonna grab a bunch of super loud teenage girls to shout your name re~ally loudly, so keep an ear our for us and come running 'kay?
[ Kano could also call. But he will not. ]
no subject
And not let Kano have his number for harassment purposes.]
I won't give you money at all if you do that.
no subject
Boo... How else am I gonna be able to find you? There's so many stores and so many people!
no subject
Fine. Two hours from now, I'll stop there-- [He points down and across the street to a little boutique ("Finely Crafted") nestled between a hedgehog(?) cafe and a touristy bookstore.] --and wait for you.
no subject
[ He gives Haku one last slap on the back in case any bones are on the verge of being broken, and then hops back and starts walking away so he doesn't get decked in the face or whatever tempts Haku's rage. ]
I'll be back in two hours! Better be there or I'll have to call the cops that my baby cousin's gone missing~!
[ Kano will be back in... two and a half hours. Will Haku wait the extra time? Will he just ditch completely and never show up in the first place?? Will Kano have to call the cops????? ]
no subject
AND NO, HE'LL BE AT THE PLACE HE SAID. Kano does NOT need to call the cops on him at all. Or any fangirls.]
no subject
Haku? Where— [ huff puff ] Are you here? Aah, there you are~
[ He couldn't open the door because his hands were occupied cupping something, one above the other to form a little shield. He stops in front of Haku, opens his hands, and proceeds to drop a handful of water all over Haku's shoes. ]
no subject
The water splashes right over his shoes, but he doesn't flinch or recoil. He doesn't throw a huge fit. His eyes peer down at his feet, and then slowly rise again to look Kano dead in the face. There's maybe a hint of a disdainful twist to his lips.]
I guess your excuse is going to be it melted on the way here.
no subject
[ No embellishment, no nothing. That's exactly his excuse and that's what it was from the start. He went off to play for two hours, found a bathroom to wash his hands and carefully carried as much water as he could over to find Haku. It isn't even cold water. ]
no subject
[Awful. Terrible. Horrendous. This just makes him think of his fake older brother, Wei Wuxian............. He has to close his eyes for a second or two before opening them again. Carefully, he detours around Kano to try to leave.
He doesn't beckon Kano to follow, but he doesn't tell Kano to get lost either.]
no subject
Haku continues to be a good boy by not shooing Kano away, and Kano returns his kindness by wiping his wet hands on Haku's sleeve as he passes by and then following him out. ]
Where's my money.
no subject
Once he's outside, he kind of very lightly shakes each foot to get rid of stray water that hasn't soaked into his shoes. His brows are sharply together, and they twitch when Kano continues to hastle him.]
You don't get the money until the job is finished. That means I need an ice rabbit, not a melted one.
[Said like "melted one."]
no subject
[ The water on your shoes is still an ice rabbit at heart, Haku... Kano tags along beside Haku, one hand in his pocket while the other he keeps in front of him palm face up while he concentrates— a drop of water beads up from the palm of his hand, growing until it's about the size of a golf ball before it starts to freeze over. Ice magic isn't his forte, but he can do at least this much: ]
In the meantime, to tide you over~ A cute little rabbit curled up all snugly into a ball~
[ It's a perfect sphere of ice and Haku will have to use his imagination to pretend it's a rabbit. Kano slips the ice down the back of Haku's collar. ]
