"Hey, Grey?"
A male with spectacles calls back into his apartment building, the panic rising in his voice. The stars reflected in those round, wide glasses sitting on the bridge of his nose, but there was something unusual when you looked at the mirror in the lens. The night sky was fogged and glistening, yet something was.. wrong. The moon- or what was where the moon used to be, at least- was outlined in a red shimmer, and it was as if you could see right through it. On top of the glitchy semi-circle was the words ERROR 404 in white and blocked letters.
It was impossible. How could the moon be fake? A simple error? What did this even mean?
Though, the confusion kept building on the male when he received no response from his roommate. "Grey? You alright?" He slowly made his way back inside from the porch, risking one more glance over his shoulder at the strange symbol in the sky. The apartment was engulfed in eerie silence, threatening to swallow the male with spectacles with the nervousness within it.
First, he poked his head into the kitchen in case Grey happened to be grabbing a late night snack or something like that. But, when he saw no one devouring the junk food from the fridge, he made his way to Grey's bedroom, searching the miniature living room and bathroom as he passed by. It was strange, because he was sure that his roommate had been awake moments ago when he reminded the male with spectacles that he had to take out the trash. Only was it then that the male realized the moon was labeled ERROR 404.
He stumbled into Grey's bedroom, knocking on the open door as he entered. His gaze drifted around the dimly lit room. The only form of light was the computer screen's blue glow and the ERROR 404 sign that lingered right above where the bed would be.
That sign!
"Grey?!" The male with spectacles fumbled in an anxious state of worry, his hand brushing over the wall in attempt to find the light switch. As soon as he found it, he flicked on the lights and froze as his jaw dropped. His roommate was nowhere to be found. Instead, there was the strange error symbol that rested where his roommate was moments before. To his surprise, the male with spectacles was able to put one foot in front of the other and make his way towards the red shine, waving his hand through it. It was a hologram. It was fake. Just like the moon.
Fake? The male furrowed his brows and took a step back. That's.. unbelievable. Maybe this is just a prank? But then again.. how could have someone pulled this off so quickly? And with the moon, too? There's got to be another explanation.
Hurriedly, he turned to his right and swayed towards the computer, furiously typing on its keyboard. He was offered with six different search results for his question; "What is ERROR 404?"
The first four websites seemed to be how to deal with the error on a device or explaining what it meant and was. The one beneath those was a chat with a Joogle assistant But the last website got his attention. 'Is anyone else seeing ERROR 404?'
Immediately, he clicked on it and scanned over the brisk article. Someone was having the same problem as him? He tried navigating his way around the website. Finally, he found what he was looking for.
There were two comments. One a quick explanation and one a reply. He held his breath as he began typing again.

Hey everyone! This was a little idea I had when scribbling out this character and, surprisingly, his fears. This will be a modern day RP with no fantasy involved ( Sorry, all you fantasy fans! ), and it will included Sci-Fi. I'm looking for two people to play the roles of the person who created the website, and the other who had a question ( The one other than Jeremiah, of course. ). In this RP, Jeremiah would be the age 21, but your character can be any age, generally.
Of course, I would rather if you were able to write at least four sentences, but whatever rolls with you is fine! Just give me a heads up if you're interested! Can't wait to start!

On very, very, rare occasions there may be unexplained, POSSIBLY supernatural events. Minor "environmental" magic. Perhaps implies the existence of a deity or supernatural entity. Or perhaps it's just tricks?
Further future, perhaps visit mars or upload your brain
Distant war may be part of the setting, but any scenes that happen to involve combat will likely be summarized, not played out in detail.
Some romance is possible, but the overall plot is more important.
Details: Freeform, adjustable length posts, long-term RP partner preferred. Will be played with a small group of players.
This is just the level of sci fi spookiness I love! I am interested in playing the other person with a question on the forum.

Great to hear! As soon as there's someone to play the third role, I'll be sure to start it!
Just a heads up; this is still open!
Love this idea! Could Kaseko fit the role of the person who created the website?

Of course! I'll PM the two of you with the details!
