ROSE BARN

Who: Rose
Where: Rose Barn
When: Day 1, Post Awakening

[Making your way to your new barn, you'll find your personal meadow is peppered with red flowers, the occasional red brainless sheep, a small pond full of clear, fresh water, and curiously a big, blooming apple tree. One a day will keep doctors away! Because there are none.

When you enter your barn, you'll find it's. . .quaint.

The first thing you see is your team's name painted in red on a wall, surrounded by a wreath of flowers. Above it is a wooden plaque with an inspirational message in the style of those Live, Laugh, Love fixtures, just. A bit hard to read.

Your eyes will be drawn to a tall crystalized rose sculpture below the plaque. You may feel the urge to touch it, and if not, some nearby framed instructions on the wall may give you a nudge. "Touch to regain your lost abilities!"

Unfortunately, while you may innately know how to activate them, what exactly do they do? You'll have to figure that out.

As for the rest of the barn itself, it's two stories and fairly basic. There is hay everywhere, and six extremely basic cots, three upstairs, three downstairs. If you examine them and remove the hay, each member of the team will find three outfits (+pajamas) for their use.

There is also a sign pointing the way to an attached portapotty--thankfully, it somehow opens up to a basic bathroom. There's one toilet, one very small bath, rickety shower, and sink. In the cabinet is enough soap, paper, and dental hygiene products for all.


Rustic is putting it lightly, but it seems that this is your home away from home!]

Life begins at the zone end of your comfort? Life of end your comfort zone the begins at?

[ Don't mind him barging right past her looking DETERMINED.

He stops in front of the rose sculpture, raises his hand, and -

Sighs, turning to look at his "teammate".

On a scale from 1 to 10, how much do you trust those brats?
pleasantmisery: (another pleasant smile)

[personal profile] pleasantmisery 2023-04-29 08:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Which brats? There's a lot of 'em around!
catposting: (unamused - sweat)

[personal profile] catposting 2023-04-29 08:38 pm (UTC)(link)
The talking ones.

[ Ugh. ]

Stormy and Blossom.

[personal profile] pleasantmisery 2023-04-29 08:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, you meant the sheep brats!

I mean, neither of them have done anything that contradicts what they've told us, so there's not reason not to trust them, is there? And they seem pretty truthful about wanting to help their fellow sheep. Blossom tried to stop them from hearing me talk about eating mutton because she didn't want them to get any carnivorous ideas!

[ Under his breath: ] So talkative...
catposting: (smile - owo)

[personal profile] catposting 2023-04-29 08:46 pm (UTC)(link)
In that case... don't you wanna get your magic back?

[ Waving at the sculpture! ]

Life begins at the...of end your comfort... zone...?

Feels like playing playing a tile game.
pleasantmisery: (another pleasant smile)

[personal profile] pleasantmisery 2023-04-29 08:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, right. I should do that, huh?

[touches the sculpture :V

and then, without visibly making an effort to shout, but still with at least twice her previous volume, she says:]

HELLO? HELLO???? CAN YOU HEAR ME? OH, GOOD, IT REALLY WORKED!

Life begins at the end of your comfort zone??

Pretty weird thing to see on a mirror, but I guess sheep can't be expected to know anything about interior decoration.

[ ... ]

Your magic lets you... talk loudly?

[personal profile] pleasantmisery 2023-04-29 08:57 pm (UTC)(link)
[back to normal volume]

Yep! Well, one of the spells I know does. It's not that useful, really. It's not like I'm a wizard or sorcerer or one of those magical types.
catposting: (shirtless - u know nothing)

[ Good, he hates loudness. ]

And you don't feel weird at all? Dizzy? In pain?
pleasantmisery: (^_^!)

[personal profile] pleasantmisery 2023-04-29 09:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Nope! I feel perfectly fine.

[ he's teammates with an airhead he's teammates with an airhead he's teammates with an airhead -- aka yes he sees it.

Also touching the sculpture!!

Almost immediately, he feels the familiar surge of Shinsu through his body, at -- a fraction of his usual power.

Nothing happens outwardly, but he does look SLIGHTLY more relaxed. And kind of irritated.

... Hey. That projection thing just now. Was that as loud as you can go?
pleasantmisery: (:)!)

[personal profile] pleasantmisery 2023-04-29 09:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Hmmmm... I seem to remember it being louder, but it's been a while since I've used it. Like I said, not really a magical type!
catposting: (smile - hi again)

[personal profile] catposting 2023-04-29 09:34 pm (UTC)(link)
What type are you, then?

[ Please don't be useless, teammate. ]
pleasantmisery: (^_^!)

[personal profile] pleasantmisery 2023-04-29 09:35 pm (UTC)(link)
The hitting things with sharp sticks type!
finalbows: (don't care didn't ask)

[personal profile] finalbows 2023-04-29 09:37 pm (UTC)(link)
It's ugly. And it's terrible advice. You're supposed to play to your strengths, not stumble around doing things you have no business doing.

[ WAS off minding his own business giving a slight test bounce to a definitely-too-short-for-him cot, when SOMEONE went knocking on the sound barrier ]

Why are you testing if you can be heard, by DEAFENING EVERYONE NEARBY!!!

And without the sharp sticks...?

[ wastes ZERO FUCKING TIME approaching that rose sculpture

reverently strokes one of the petals with his fingertips like some kind of fucking freak

if this doesn't work he's pushing it over.

...

[ touches the flower.

and then bangs her staff loudly on the ground. ]

Rose Army, hear the call of your President! Since you are all devils and not humans, I cannot refer to you as "human", but this means I am lacking a way to address you. So! You will each tell me what kind of devil you are, and if you wish for an additional name I shall generously let you choose one.

However!

As President, I will not have my followers have weak or lame sounding titles. If you choose something that I don't like, I have the power of veto and I shall use it. Now, speak!
finalbows: (don't care didn't ask)

Angel Devil. Understood.

[ a momentary pause, and then: ]

Did you not have a tail earlier, Angel Devil?
