INTRO LOG
Week Zero

The transition from unconsciousness to the waking world is practically seamless. Though you're certain this wasn't where you meant to end up, for a few brief moments it's hard to grasp the situation and take in your surroundings.
A soft twilight lights your way, casting a glow over the sprawling village that fans out around you. Just outside of the large meeting hall you'll find yourself awakening among several others who have found themselves in this place. There's a sense of peace that looms over the area, the only sounds being the cheerful chirp of a stray bird or two and the babbling brook that runs through the village itself.
Stand up, dust yourself off and set out. There are plenty of places to explore and should you venture far enough you'll even find several little houses throughout the village. It may take some time, but as you check out each house you'll soon come across something that belongs to you...along with something that doesn't. It seems that this new residence is yours to share. As for the village itself, the other buildings appear open and well-stocked, providing you with a variety of amenities to utilize. The paths leading out of the village, however, are guarded by four ornate wooden gates. No matter how hard you try, they will not let you past. It seems that the time isn't right yet.
Speaking of, the only way to truly track the passage of time is by charting the movements of the sun but that can prove to be quite difficult as well. As the sun dips below the horizon and the night sky fills with stars, the bell at the shrine rings out to signal the end of your first day. No one else has arrived. It's only you and these strangers for now.
It seems as though you'll have plenty of time to get acquainted with your fellow companions. Make yourself comfortable; when the time is right, answers will appear.
Welcome to the soft intro of Subdivided! This is your intro mingle and the current conditions will last through the weekend until Monday, June 3rd at which point the weekly log will go up. Your characters will not know anything about the partner system, how powers work or any plot-relevant information until Monday. However, characters are free to discover their power through trial and error and will have access to their item from home immediately.
Please note that an additional top-level to introduce NPCs and Game Mechanics will go up on Sunday, 4 PM EST.

Oh!
What an odd-shaped fruit! May I see it?
no subject
[Handing it over, still unpeeled... ngl Nana is watching curiously to see what the girl will do with it]
Would you like a taste?
no subject
[and she just
chomps on it.
there's some resistance. due to the fibrous peel.
but she chomps through it anyway, taking a clean bite out of the side of the banana.
she chews it, thoughtfully, her expression a tapestry of emotions.]
Hmm...
It's much more chewy and bitter than I'd expected from its bright color, but I imagine it's an acquired taste.
no subject
so much to unpack here]
Ah, I'm sorry, I didn't explain very well. The skin is the bitter part! Normally we peel that back so we just eat the sweet fruit inside.
Just gonna... very carefully take that banana back, using the other end to demonstrate what she means.]
See? Take a bite of this part and tell me what you think.
no subject
Oh!
That's very good!
no subject
[Theeeere we go, the reaction she was hoping for. Nana beams at the other]
Many fruits are the same way -- just peel back the skin if it's thick, to get to the best parts on the inside.
