[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

You're embarrassing.
[But he'll go inside, making sure Wei Wuxian follows him. Nevermind the cart. Maybe someone will come by and take it, and then it won't matter. Not that he plans to let Wei Wuxian go back out of the door anyhow.]
Why are you trying to peddle rollerblades to people anyway? If someone gets hurt, you'll be in trouble.
no subject
Haha, so I've heard! [From other little brothers once upon a time. He might actually start believing it's true at this rate, wow.
But in he goes, and he does follow along obediently! For now.]
Hm? Ah, well! A certain someone agreed it would be a good idea, and who am I to deny them something fun? [It was Mizuki, but he's not doxxing her. Haku is the only responsible member of this family.] I'll make sure no one gets hurt, so it'll be fine!
no subject
"A certain someone"? If they thought it was a good idea, let them do it. [Honestly, he's thinking it's Kano. He's really thinking it's Kano, and so Mizuki is terribly lucky.] You're going to get sued if people get hurt.
[Despite not saying a single damn thing of consequence to anyone, he does offer a short, polite bow of his head in greeting when people here and there stop to bellow at him. He does not carry on conversation unnecessarily, and he doesn't? introduce? his brother to anyone. Punishment.]
no subject
It's up to them whether or not they want to join in! [HE HOPES SHE DOES but he's not going to shove her into a pair of rollerblades. Kano, on the other hand, can just suffer with his bad life choices and terrible family.
He also just waves away the notion of getting sued because he doesn't even know what the fuck a sue is. Also, who's being punished here by not being introduced?? This helps him out a lot, the fewer people who know his name the fewer can identify him when the cops come!!
Eventually, though, he gets tired of all the pomp and circumstance and starts to drift a little off course. A wandering Wei Wuxian never gets up to anything good...]
no subject
--and there Wei Wuxian goes.
He unfortunately doesn't notice at first. It's when he glances back because it's unnaturally quiet that he has to double-take because the dark gremlin is looking for something to get into. Both brows dive together, and he about-faces to head after without rushing.]
A-Xian!
no subject
At least he hasn't gotten into anything yet, despite the abundance of Things To Get Into that there are around this place. He's got a plate in one hand even though he's nowhere near the food tables, though?! It's fine.]
What's the matter? Don't you have important people to go introduce yourself to? [Making a little shooing motion!!] I'll behave, you don't have to worry about me.
[Hm.]
no subject
That sounds like something someone who misbehaves would say. [Suspiciously, his eyes drop to the plate. Where?? did it come from?? What's in it? He's trying to look! Hm. Haku absolutely doesn't seem convinced about this not-promise.] I'm only here because people expect me to be here.
Don't run off.
[Shooing motion or not, he doesn't budge. He's sticking to Wei Wuxian's side.]
no subject
Also there's nothing on the plate but perhaps that makes it even more suspicious. It's fine, though!]
Hah, what's this? I've picked myself up quite the watchful eye here, haven't I? [He reaches out with his free hand to fondly ruffle Haku's hair. SUFFER.]
Fine, fine - I'll stay with you for now. [FOR NOW.] Shall we leave the boring talk behind? I'm sure we can find something fun to do even if you won't wear the rollerblades that I so painstakingly picked out for you.
no subject
Forget the rollerblades. Can't you just behave, A-Xian? If you do something to get in trouble, it will reflect back on the rest of us.
[He's just talking to a wall, isn't he? Sheesh. But he isn't! leaving Wei Wuxian's side!]
What are you doing with that?
[THE PLATE.]
no subject
I won't get in trouble! Have a little more faith in your big brother, would you? If I've stayed out of trouble this long, I can manage the entire night.
[Well, like. He'll give it a good ol' fashioned effort. He also glances down at the plate and then holds it up...]
Do you want it?
[WHY.]
no subject
[Skeptically, he peers at the empty plate, and then he searches Wei Wuxian's face. What's the catch? He's scared. He has real fear here, but it's irritated fear, not running screaming fear.]
...Why? What are you doing with it?
[STOP JUKING HIM.]
no subject
Why, nothing at all! [He blinks so very innocently, tipping the empty (and clean!) plate forward.] Do you want it? Yes or no? If not, I'll keep it.
[For ???? reasons??]
