WAKE UP TIME

WAKE UP TIME

[The first thing you feel when you wake up is...nothing.

You don't feel much different at all when you wake up, no doubt from a very pleasant sleep, even if you may not remember what you dreamed of. If anything, you would have thought it was another normal day.

That thought would have vanished the moment you took in your surroundings. This is not your bed, this is definitely not your bedroom, and well, this is definitely not your home. In fact, this place isn't anywhere you've been before.

Before you can question anything much further, your cell phone starts beeping, flashing a message on the screen for a good several minutes, before flashing your profile, also for a few minutes. Yes, now you have a Title, and a power, even if you've never had one before. And yes, you have a cell phone. Even if you didn't have one, and don't know what the hell a cell phone is. You get the feeling you'll need to keep it on you.

The profile fades back to the home page of your phone - don't worry, you can still access your profile, and everyone else's, on that little lime icon if you really want - even though you have so many questions now. (The help button may... attempt to be helpful in that case.) Where the hell are you? Why do you have a Title? And can you get out?

Perhaps, if you're strong enough. But, in any case.

Welcome, Titled.

There are fifteen strangers in this place.]


((OOC: Welcome!

If you haven't filled out the resident profile or current residents information yet, please do so!))

[Well, that's brusque.

Yuuri jumps with a small yelp, staring wide-eyed at the man looming over him.]

Wh-- what?!

[steelmagnolias]

You look like you need to breathe. Just... sit down, okay?

[ Brusque as he is, he's still kind of concerned about you. ]

[katsufemmefatale]

I... I am sitting....

[One of his legs is bouncing restlessly and he's shaking a bit from being startled, though.]

I'm okay, I'm fine... just fine....

[steelmagnolias]

...hold on. I'll be back.

[ He's gonna turn around to head somewhere. More specifically, he's gonna try to get to the food court to find something to drink for this kid, but. ]

[katsufemmefatale]

[Yeah, Yuuri is just going to sit there and fidget and try not to completely melt down.

Please don't bring him alcohol. You don't want to see what happens when he has booze in his system.]

[steelmagnolias]

[ Don't worry, he's not gonna start with the booze. At least, maybe not just yet.

Instead, he'll come back with a cup of tea. ]

[katsufemmefatale]

[Bless you, sir. Tea is familiar, and he definitely doesn't need the caffeine in coffee with how jittery he already is.

Yuuri takes the cup, cradling it in both hands for extra stability and taking a few small sips.]

You didn't have to do this, but... thank you.

[steelmagnolias]

It's not a problem.

I mean, there's a lot of shit going on now, but we're not going to get anywhere by freaking out.

[katsufemmefatale]

I know.

[He sounds sullen and embarrassed. Freaking out in front of strangers is bad enough, but being called out on it is worse.]

I can't believe we've been kidnapped. I don't even know how someone managed to grab me, the last thing I remember I was surrounded by people.

[steelmagnolias]

The last thing I remember, I was on a plane, so whoever kidnapped us has got to be really good at this.

[katsufemmefatale]

They took you right off a plane? How--

[He shakes his head.]

I guess that doesn't matter now. What matters is getting out of here. Our families must be freaking out.

[steelmagnolias]

Yeah...no kidding.

You wake up in a weird fake bedroom too?

[katsufemmefatale]

Yes, definitely not mine. But it's blue, and that's my favorite color, so... someone was trying to be considerate?

[He doesn't sound quite convinced.]

[steelmagnolias]

Mine's nice, but... it's probably not something I'd pick for myself.

It's not even a real room! What the fuck?!
