UM? x IC Profiles Reaction x

On Sunday in the afternoon, you hear a very loud foghorn interrupting whatever it is you're doing! When you look up over the ocean, you'll see... an island! Whoa! We're almost there! In fact, we are there, so go get a last drink to go and get ready to disembark. It's hard to see the docks, because instead of wood, they're made of glass, for some reason. They're also currently being lapped by the ocean waves, which is why the yacht avoids them entirely and heads directly to the beach - an idealistic, beautiful place with soft white sand and sparkling blue waves. From this distance, you can see not only the beach, but an enormous mansion not too far from the sand. That looks nice... hope you're staying there, right? A second foghorn goes off, and you find yourself ushered to the gangplank by a troupe of very determined bunnies. These bunnies shove phones into your hands as you pass! You'll get a better look at them in a minute, because the bunnies do not stop there - they practically shove you off the boat down to the beach. Guarded by a pack of catfish-like creatures in little valet outfits, your home items will be there to receive you once you set foot on the soft, white sands. And just a few paces ahead, you spot three colorful figures...

New phone, who dis?

Yay, a phone! Wow, you've been set up with the works, huh? This is one of those fancy phones that cost more than half your yearly salary. Anyway, they've got plenty of features, and the best part is that they're constantly monitoring what you have to say at all times! Whoa! Your brand new Citrus Plus phone includes:

✦ Texting (as well as voice-to-text) ✦ Calling ✦ Video/Video Chat ✦ Notes functionality ✦ A camera ✦ A music player (called Smoothie) ✦ Full access to the Grapevine, an OnlyFruits exclusive network, as well as a selection of stickers, gifs, emoji, and more! ✦ Full access to the Fruit Juicer, an application for voting that seems to have no function outside of specific days ✦ Full access to Vitamin D, our specialized application that allows for you to get into your assigned team lounge! The D is for door.

You can add password protection to these phones, if you'd like. It can be through facial recognition, a six letter/number password, or a fingerprint scan. Your phone is the same color as your team (so orange, yellow, or green), and has a cute little fruit shaped charm hanging from it. It essentially looks like an iPhone, except how it isn't so we here at OnlyFruits don't get sued. And last but not least, it's not invincible! If you throw it, it'll shatter the screen or scuff the case, just like a normal phone. Don't drop it in the pool. You can get a new one, theoretically, but you don't want to know what the cost will be.

[ The green-helmeted host, now with one freshly ripped off sleeve hanging onto their arm for dear life, has one gloved hand pressed against where their mouth should be while they stare at the new arrivals. Their LED screen is blank...? What little is visible of their skin is unknowable.

After a beat, a simple :) appears on the screen and they casually kick the pile of orange and yellow fabric behind a convenient piece of driftwood, clapping their hands together. Nothing to see here!! ]

...Hello, hello! Welcome to Napalm Springs!

[frostythehitman]

You have problems with screens?

--wait. Napalm Springs?

[streamy]

[The image on their screen turns to [...] again, and they lift up one finger.]

No. [A second finger.] Yyyyes...?

[etherealism]

[ slowly... walks towards them... ]

Hello. Is this our final destination?

[streamy]

[They do not seem bothered by the slowness. Nods!

Pauses.

>_<;;

And quietly when she's close enough to hear:]

Wait, I don't know if you can see me nodding???

[rescuebullet]

[Watches them kick away the fabric.]

... Did something happen between you before we arrived?

[streamy]

[They tilt their head. A ? appears on the LED screen.]

No?

[katzepaw]

[sadly looks at the green host who is being bullied. but also not saying anything immediately because he was just handed his cat, and that takes priority.]

There you are. Very clever, waiting for me.

[he does not make eye contact with lime, he's just talking to his cat.]

[streamy]

[That's fine. Lime isn't bothered by this? They quietly go aw... and start drawing patterns on the sand with their heel.

Go on. Have your kitty reunion.]

[viticella]

[ Heads over to her matching host! ]

Hi! Do you need help with your sleeve?

[streamy]

Heya!

[...

They pause and look at their ripped off sleeve.]

...Nnnnoooo, that's okay. But, uh, thanks for asking?

[smashcut]

Oh boy, I love the smell of Napalm Springs in the morning!

[streamy]

[One big ? on the LED screen.

Also, by the way, why are you ten fucking feet tall.]

G-Good...?

[lactoseintolerable]

Ooh, a little asymmetry! Not bad, not bad... just one question for you though. Won't take but a minute!

What. Happened. To my dough?

[streamy]

[The LED screen turns to [...] again.]

Uh. What dough?

[They sound extremely confused.]

[lactosetolerant]

Excuse me.

[ever polite]

Are you our hosts?

[streamy]

[Nods!]

Live, Laugh and Love.

Re: LIVE

[0202]

[Gaaaaaaaasp]

You can make cute little faces on your mask! What other ones can you do?

[streamy]

[They wave a hand like - vaguely?

Then the screen changes from :) to :P to ;)]

[quantizer]

[ looks. at the rubble of the mansion after the explosion. ]

I feel like I understand the name.

[streamy]

[They nod.

Softly, with feeling:]

Boom...

[extensiveform]

[oh my god i wrote this an hour ago and never hit post comment. why.

hand raised.]

When do I get my wheels back?

[streamy]

If the namazu didn't have them... I dunno.

[They sound apologetic and also like they're assuming Jem is talking about an item, not something else entirely.]

[rodesko]

Well, it's about time we had a proper welcome.

I suppose you're the ones running all of this?

[streamy]

Nope. That would be OnlyFruits. We're just your hosts for this season.
