so i've been stuck inside because i don't know if i'm allergic to bees, and i'm DEFINITELY allergic to giant ants, and also i'm pretty sure half of my friends have vanished.
not trying to whine or anything. i mean, that's sort of how life is after getting space dimension kidnapped?
like, don't get me wrong, i WANT to whine. but it's happened before. and unless we find a way to change that it'll keep happening.
so i guess... if you recognize me just say something?
just so i know you're still here.
anyway.
i've got three days left as a teen, life sucks, and i've still got a few bottles of the drinks from last place i was at.
i want to make bad decisions. give me stupid ideas
like... are there clubs around here? can anyone recommend one?
i've never been clubbing. and i kind of feel like there might be a time limit on that??
screw it. who wants to get fucked up and go clubbing

Oh. Hey there.
[ the voice that drifts through the communicators defies description. it is venus's voice, and it is not; like a young tenor, barrel-aged since the beginning of time and only just coming into its own. it sounds like fresh hookah and tastes like music. it's like static and honey, gently sifting out of electronic speakers. ]
This place... [ a sigh. ] It's beautiful, isn't it? A thousand thousands, living their own truths. It's flawed, and uncut, and cracked down the edges. It's the most beautiful, wonderful gem I've seen.
[ for a few seconds, the recording stays silent. all that remains is the background noise of lunatia: voices trickling up from the streets. the whirr of machinery and the hum of crystals. ]
There are hundreds of you, and I know so few. [ there's something ancient in her words. deep, old, sad. ] So while there's still time... Tell me. Remind me of your name. Let me see your face so I never forget it again.
[ an exhale, long and smooth. ]
And if you're hurting, or lonely, or you've forgotten too... Find me. I'm waiting. I'll always wait for you.
[ there's a soft laugh, barely audible - a fond exhalation more than anything voiced. ]
Until then, my darling.
[ the recording clicks off. ]

Well, considering the unusual flow of time, I thought it was relevant to speak of this now.
I was wondering how many of you are familiar with the concept of alternative timelines and realities. Merely for a pure discussion standpoint, or if you had a curiosity without really any understanding of it.
I suppose in my way, it's to clear my mind. Sort it out and such.

Oh, er - hullo, I'm. Well. I guess I've been here for a little while already, but it's taken ages to. To really settle in? This place is profoundly different and. Frankly a bit distressing.

[ typing on a mobile phone with your tongue is very, very difficult, as it turns out. just like turning into a twenty-foot long, feathery snake-dragon while you're stuck in someone else's bedroom.
it's been an exciting time for everyone, basically. ]

Good afternoon Lunatia! βͺ
[Hopefully you were sitting when you opened this audio message, because the brunt of this undiluted cheerfulness would've knocked you on your ass.]
Since I've found my hands... preoccupied, and there's nothing that interesting on TV... I have a question for anyone who wants to talk:
What's the craziest thing that has happened to you before, after, or during sex?

[The young man that appears on the video looks extremely nervous and uncomfortable.]
Listen, with everything going on lately I haven't been able to...
[He sighs, starts over. He hates this. Asking for help is so hard, but he isn't the only one at risk if here.]
I noticed a while back that the more Chroma I have the easier it is to deal with... well... A particular situation that I have at hand. [Oh man, that terrible pun wasn't on purpose and he looks even more uncomfortable realizing that he did it.]
But I'm not very good at collecting Chroma. I have someone back home and I don't want to betray her. I was thinking, though, that for the brief time she was here she was pretty clear that she didn't want me to suffer.
I don't want to either, I guess. [That part is up for debate.]
This is me asking for people willing to help me out.
[He looks frustrated at the whole idea as soon as he says it.]
You know what, nevermind. This is stupid.

( Ping! Your profile needs updating, there's hot singles in your area, it's a swipe frenzyβ you all know the push updates with dating apps, right? Maybe your chroma's a little low after all that holiday shopping and it just sounds like it's worth a shot, or someone gets ahold of your device and "helps" you along. Upload some new selfies with that new Moonblessing of yours, drop in an About Me, and get to swiping!
And Pleaseβ someone please come up with a better name than Prismates because the moons alone make sure we're more than just mammals and no one's obligated to do it like they do on the Discovery Channel. We all know the drill by now, don't we? Swipe right or left, yes or no, mark yourself down to moonlace and flirt or just rile a friend up with a big red Xβ try to include an opening message! Happy Hump Day? )

i've been trying to figure out what people even use this "internet" thing for and it seems like most people just write whatever they want on it, right? that's what it seems like. i saw a bunch of questions and some ads and some introductions.
there's an observatory here apparently. they let you go there and look at the stars at night if you want to. i guess the stars would be different here than they would on earth or wherever else. they have different constellations too which i guess makes sense. different star patterns and different cultural basis for deciding what shapes they look like to begin with.
every place is different. they all do things differently. around here you're supposed to hold hands or hug or fuck and maybe here that's no different than taking your shoes off when you go in the house or saying itadakimasu before you eat. i guess you're supposed to just get used to that. living here means that's just what you're stuck with.
i ran out of cigarettes.
so is that what people do when they decide they need money? just go on here and write "hey i'm out of cash anybody want to moonlace"? like it's a fucking bathroom wall or something.
yeah, i know, or get a job. last i checked you can't get a job in the middle of the night on no notice.
cigarettes. candles. incense. maybe someone who knows how to do calligraphy or draw. guess that's a shopping list that'll have to wait until morning.

[ after an embarrassingly long time spent figuring out the functions of the communication bracelet - look, it's a lot to take in all in one go - wei wuxian types out a message that's equal parts honest inquiry and throwing things on a wall to see what sticks. ]
my respectful salute to everyone reading this. my name is wei wuxian, from the yunmeng jiang sect. i have some questions and a request, if it pleases.
[ okay, the manners part is done. wei wuxian can now go wild. ]
from what i've been told, moonlacing is the practice of creating chroma. it requires at least two willing participants, and physical contact is involved.
how much contact is needed? would exposed skin touching covered skin work? how long does one need to be in contact with their moonlacing partner in order to succeed in creating chroma, what's the bare minimum? how exactly is it stored, and can you learn how moonlacing is done? has anyone succeeded in moonlacing by themselves? are there limitations to moonlacing? does it still work if your partner is unconscious, or otherwise unable to participate due to injury or some other misfortune? how quickly can you lose chroma, what's the quickest that anyone's ever drained their reserves?
i have so many questions!
anyway, my request is this: would anyone be willing to help me test the answers to these questions by moonlacing with me? i'll be more than grateful for the help!
thank you for your time!
(ooc: related log over here!)

ok. so.
i got most of this already? i think, at least.
there's chroma, and demi-chroma, and you get frisky to get... chroma? yeah. demi-chroma you have to mine.
so i'll try not to ask about any of that stuff
but i guess my big question is
is this anyone else's second big trip offworld?
like. has anyone else here gone through this whole "kidnap and wake up somewhere else" thing
because even if this place is way better than duplicity i would really kind of... rather not? keep popping around in different places.
is this a condition? do i have teleportitis or something fake like that basically.
also, if anyone here knows... uh. jeez. jupiter, neptune, saturn, ren, reverie... actually if anyone here recognizes "venus?" that's probably easier. let me know if you remember me i guess
also also, do piercings heal up when you come here or is that just a devil thing. just curious. it's a hypothetical question i guess.
also also also, does any place around here do piercings cheap? i'm kind of broke. like not hypothetically broke.
