(Day 1) ==> Beatix: Enter (Open to All)
Your name is BEATIX ARGENT and you are gazing at a solid aggregate of mineraloids that, having entered the Alternian atmosphere, have been heated to seering luminosity. In laytroll's terms, you are staring at a METEOR, which, under ordinary circumstances, would not be concerning. The circumstances under which you are presently operating, however, are as ordinary as the trajectory you have deemed fit to recalculate as the corners of your mouth reach the point of equilibrium in their steady descent. You are excited and you are growing no less so. You are growing more so with a decided sense of urgency upon the expeditious completion of your check of your mathematics. Why? Well, isn't it obvious? Because that meteor is heading straight for you!

Ceroti, there is A meteor rApidly ApproAching my hive! I hAve checked my mAthemAtics. By the time I hAve sent you this messAge And you hAve reAd it in 7ull, there will be little more thAn 7ive minutes be7ore impAct! This is Assuming you hAve not le7t yoursel7 signed in And wAndered 7rom the terminAl, which you hAd better not hAve done. 7ive minutes wAning is not A long period o7 time!
it's getting closer!!!

You are uncertain of your location. 'When' is relative. It seems longer than it has been and you are aware of this. The science behind this uncanny effect passes briefly through your think pan and fades with a miniscule flourish of acknowledgment, leaving you alone to ponder the abrupt change in your setting. Momentarily, you decide it would be of greater benefit to open channels and ESTABLISH CONTACT with others regarding this highly unexpected development in the game.

ARTIFICIAL. That is rather debatable, isn't it?
DB: You do not hAve to tell me more thAn once! I will be there presently. Between the two o7 us, I Am con7ident thAt we will be met with success.
It is the closest you will get to, "Do not worry," at the moment. Perhaps you could have phrased it better and in a way so as to be more reassuring, but the growing presence of the METEOR in the Alternian sky reminds you that this is not the time to contemplate words, sentiments, perceived meanings, and the EXACTITUDE thereof.
After shelving both items within your beloved LIBRARY MODUS, you move, and you move fast.
After entry
Hopefully safe from the meteors, at least.

So far, so good.
It's pretty plain out here though. No real landscape s'far as I can see.
no subject
'BRIGHT' may not have been the best choice of descriptor, but more importantly, it sounds as though the possibility of deviation will SUPERSEDE similitude in some ways with regards to the game. Still, if you are essentially playing THE SAME GAME, and you ARE, then.......
I have a proposal for you, Zach Snyder.
no subject
Oh? What kinda proposal?
whoops ignore the lack of quirk last tag
A mutuAlly bene7iciAl proposAl, o7 course! As you Are AwAre, we Are plAying two distinct sessions o7 the sAme gAme. It is my opinion thAt A COLLABORATIVE EXCHANGE O7 IN7ORMATION between our respective sessions would see the odds o7 eAch session's success GREATLY IMPROVED, ideAlly reducing our respective session's mArgins o7 error. By my cAlculAtions, there is greAt deAl to be GAINED by our respective sessions should you choose to Accept.
This is my proposAl. You Are 7ree to discuss it Amongst your session's plAyers be7ore you issue A response. The o77er will stAnd in the meAn.

~YOU ALright?~
~ALL Your bits in place? :(~
~CEROTI SAID YOUR WHole hive is gone man~
no subject
If by 'GONE' you mean my hive is no longer where it stood upon Alternian soil, you would be correct. It would appear the game has displaced my hive and myself on an ANOTHER PLANET ENTIRELY. It is very... BRIGHT.
And BEAUTIFUL. You are not entirely certain you have come across a landscape this BREATHTAKING before. It is DIFFERENT from the Alternia landscape, which is not to say Alternian landscape did not have its appeal. It is SIMPLY DIFFERENT, a thought that makes you briefly wonder...
You are not entirely sure what to make of it beyond these things at the moment. Fortunately, you have time and, for the moment, company.
no subject
~DUde what~
~YOU GOT MOVED TO another planet??~
~THE SUN ISN'T FRying you is it?? :(~
ignore the lack of quirk last tag oops
As a result, you are SAFE, a fact that does not sit entirely well with you as the other players are sure to be in imminent danger if your entry into the medium was any indication. Really, that would be your LUCK, would it not?
More importAntly, Are you sA7e At this moment?
Post-Entry
8eat!
Did you really get teleported somewhere else?
What's it like?
∞∞∞h, and I'm glad you're okay! Getting o8literated 8y a meteor sounds like an awful way to go!
no subject
My hive And mysel7 were indeed teleported to whAt AppeArs to be Another plAnet. It is very BRIGHT. No, wAit. PerhAps BRIGHT is not the right word. There is An excess o7 7ormAtions composed o7 some cleAr, trAnspArent minerAl. They AppeAr to be HIGHLY RE7RACTIVE, which mAkes the AreA seem BRIGHT.
ThAt is unimportAnt, however! How Are you? Is your horizon 7ree o7 7Alling stArs?
no subject
I've ruled out death 8y flaming rocks t∞.
Have you ever heard of a hero who died 8y meteor? 8ecause I sure haven't!
It sounds... well, really 8right. It doesn't hurt or anything? 8ecause I think I could handle the think pan ache if it meant seeing something so different for a change.
I'm okay! 8ut I'm not sure how long that's going to last for. I'm just lucky I don't live in the city.
Never have you been so grateful that your lusus requires a lot of space to hunt and roam around as you are right now.
Too bad about your house being super flammable though, seems there are downsides to living in the base of a giant tree in the middle of a grassy area. Who knew?
no subject
It does not hurt! It mAy tAke A bit o7 Adjustment, but it is ActuAlly quite pulchritudinous in its own wAy. You should visit At your eArliest convenience.
Do keep me updAted. As things stAnd, I Am unAble to AscertAin the stAte o7 AlterniA 7rom my current position. I do not wish 7or Anything untowArd to be7All a 7ellow plAyer.
Post-Entry
There is no time for formalities. You haven't felt this terrified since your first FLARP campaign, when you took your eyes off Beatix for one moment and couldn't find her again. You haven't called her by that nickname in sweeps, but right now you feel like a wriggler again, confused and uncertain.
§Are you well?§
§Cero said§
§Are§
§I'm sorry, I'm not§
§Please tell me you are okay.§

Still, to see that familiar address plainly upon the screen with such emphasis is both STARTLING and TELLING. You waste no time in responding to your troubled friend, ELEGANCE left at the wayside for a brief moment.
I Am okAy, KAnA! ReAlly, I Am! I Am 7unctioning optimAlly with considerAtion to the rigorous event thAt hAs just tAken plAce.
PleAse do not Apologize. The situAtion in which I presently Am is no 7Ault o7 yours.
If it is anyone's fault, it is yours for not listening to Ceroti, good intentions be damned. A large part of your psyche promptly reels at this uncomfortable thought. All you wanted was to was share a game you believed would amount to A TRULY EPIC ADVENTURE with your friends. How were you supposed to know the game would trigger the apocalypse? You shake your head once, twice.
I Am more concerned About your well-being At the moment, however. Are you sA7e?
You think she had better be safe. You are not entirely certain what you will do if she is not. You are -- you must be -- within the game and Kanabo is not, not yet. You cannot reach her, not physically, and this realization troubles you greatly. Danger is sure not to be long behind your friends if your violent introduction to the medium was any indication, danger brought about by your stubborn enthusiasm, and you are... safe.
You are uncertain the frown upon your face could be any more pronounced.

§I will be better once BOTH of you are safe.§
Perhaps it's the terror which makes you candid enough to admit the next bit.
§I hate that I cannot do more to protect you two.§

The shower of falling stars may not have been near his hive, but wishful thinking is not a luxury you feel you can afford under these circumstances. You HIGHLY DOUBT the star shower stopped when you entered the game and that does not bode well for your companions still present on Alternia, companions you cannot physically reach, which is INCREASINGLY FRUSTRATING to you.
no subject
}!{ Though the sudden meteor shower I can see from my hive is most...disconcerting.
