(If you haven't signed up, please visit the sign up forum) The land Of Etheria is one of joy and tranquility. Everyone knows everyone, and gossip spreads like wildfire. But that's not why you're here. You're here to relax, maybe catch a tan to look cool or maybe to meet people. Once arriving, a lady at the front desk smiles, her silvery hair cascadind down, "Good morning and welcome to Etheria Resort! What can I do for you today?"

A tall figure slowly opens the doors, seemingly anxious. They gingerly step in, their head tilting at the sight of the front desk. As they close the door, they exhale, stepping forward into the light.

The figure seemed to be snuggled in their hoodie, which was a darkish blue shade. There was a pink bow placed by their hoodie zip, and they had a long black tail which also had a bow near the top, seemingly placed there by someone close. They clutched their bag and moved closer to the desk, seemingly even more nervous.

“H…Hello. I… think this is the… um, ‘reeee-sorhtt’… ‘re…sorht’…”

He coughed.

“Resort… yes, resort…! I… heavily apologise about that messup…”

They moved their silver hair and pushed their right hand into their mouth before immediately pulling it out, seemingly remembering what they had wanted to say.

“This… place looks… nice. I… heard from a friend about this place, and they said that they had paid for my stay here.”

They looked at the lady. If they had eyes, they would’ve possibly been glittering.

"Of course! What is your name?" She says, delightfully cheerful. The other people who are staying at the resort eye you curiously.

Valeria confidently threw open the door, strutting in like she knew what she was doing. She pulled her suitcase behind her.

She stood behind the other person, fixing up her hair.

"Woah, this place is nice."

She moved her hair behind her ears.

“I…I’m Ping.”

He smiled, shivering a little at the stares. His ‘antennae’ twitched, seemingly indicating at his anxiety increasing.

Ping’s tail gently tapped the person behind him.

She looks down at a list for a moment before looking back up, "Ah, yes, Ping. You'll be in room 304," She grabs a keycard from a drawer and hands it to them "Enjoy your stay!"

Cat was next to walk in. Her cybernetic ears twitched at the quietest of sounds, but she ignored them in favor of getting her priorities done first. The light blue tank top and dark grey shorts she had picked out were clean, and her sunglasses currently rested on the top of her head. She rolled her suitcase with her, it carrying her essentials; sunscreen, a pack of cards, and her diary. She could get food and drinks after she checked in.

She looked around, letting a gasp, "This place looks better than it sounds!"

She patiently stood in line, eager to explore the resort as soon as possible.

The next person quickly gets their room key and moves out of the way. "Alright, next!"

Ping holds the keycard and faintly smiles.

“Thank you so much. May The Stars give you tranquility and joy.”

He nods his head and walks a few steps, gazing at the numbers.

Stars Ablaze was interested at the mention of her namesake. She ignored it, however, instead simply walking up to the front desk, fiddling with her bag. "Good day." She said, taking a glance at Ping once more before turning back to whoever was in charge of the place.

---

“Three… zero… four.”

Ping pushes the keycard into his bag.

“Riiight… three zero four…”

He slowly walks over to the stairs, his tail dragging on the floor.

---

"Hi, how may I help you?" She smiles, her body swaying back an forth as she looks at whomever approaches the front desk next.

“Someone else has told me about this resort.” She said, pulling out some money out of her bag. “I’m considering staying here for a while, especially after seeing someone else mention 'The Stars'.” After she finished, Ablaze handed over the needed money, closed her bag and awaited for the person to give her the number of the room.

---

"Alright. . you'll be in room 247. I hope you enjoy your stay!" She grabs the keycard and hands it over. "The beach is currently open right now, so go enjoy it!"

“Thank you, I suppose.” Stars Ablaze said, wandering off into the corridor. Not that she knew what to search for. It was her first time in this place, after all. “Two hundred and forty seven… I wonder where it is.” She muttered, walking up the stairs onto the next floor.

---

BTW, the first number tells you what floor your on

Ping slowly walked onto the second floor, tilting his head at the sight of a potted plant.

(Xinhe’s cafe will be at the third floor.)


From the east side of resort revealed a lavishing resort revealed a small comforting cafe busy serving hearty warm breakfast for customers with unique personalities. From boisterous Gen Z teenagers, millennials that occasionally strikes up conversations and humans with unique physical features or strange powers spawned in as well, the cafe had been a comforting place for resort residents. The aroma of morning coffee and other delights rolled into the main courtyard, like a tendril of temptation that draws outside customers to the cafe.

From the front register stood a young man with raven dark hair and somber brown eyes - paired with dark circles under his eyes is enough to reveal a story of fighting through another restless night. Accompanied by his sleep paralysis demon called ’student debt’. Despite the troublesome night, he had already adapted to his erratic sleep schedule since high school. The young man was committed to his job. His nimble fingers efficiently mashed through each buttons. The past cafe work experience guides Xinhe through the digital screen, but he may have used more force than necessary. The monitor slightly tilted to side. It was close enough that the customer can smell the burnt wires and the heat of the monitor’s circulation from that range.

As the next customer step up to, Xinhe greeted them with an unreadable. “Welcome to Karen’s Cafe, where you’re not allowed to refund once you consumed a single bite of our product. What can I get for you?” His tone was not unkind, but felt flat to anyone that heard him.

After receiving the order, Xinhe turned to the coffee machine to grab a pot of coffee. He moved fluidly through the cafe. His hands moved in a blur. The afterimages made his arms appear multiplying, until he is now working with 8 arms. A moment later, Xinhe turned to the ‘pick up’ station to set the items down. The plates and the cup of coffee gently clinked on the glass surface. He called the order to the customer, “one black coffee and a matcha cake!” He decided to take the next order. When the customer finally came, Xinhe paused in his current order to give the customer a nod of confirmation. “Enjoy.”

After the customer left, he resumed to finish up sending in the next next batch of orders. Occasionally, a exhilarating sigh escaped his lips while he tried to keep up with every request. Despite Xinhe being the only employee working here, the cafe still has not consider the cafe to be understaffed.

(i feel like it would be on the ground flooor)

(It would be much easier with a group chat, though. Now we’re just doing conversations in the RP threat itself :/)
