THISTLE BARN
Who: Thistle
Where: Thistle Barn
When: Day 1, Post Awakening
[Making your way to your new barn, you'll find your personal meadow is peppered with purple flowers, the occasional purple brainless sheep, a small pond full of clear, fresh water, and curiously a big, blooming fig tree. It figures it'd be figs!
When you enter your barn, you'll find it's. . .quaint.
The first thing you see is your team's name painted in purple 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 thistle 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!]

. . . I hope no one here is allergic to hay.
[well! he'll just start cleaning the hay off the cots, he supposes]
no subject
[But he suddenly gets an idea and grins.]
Here, toss some of that up to me.
no subject
[. . .]
[it doesn't go far, because it's hay, and just flutters back to the ground]
no subject
Because that one piece touches him and starts glowing red, and sticks out straight. And other pieces touch the glowing red piece. And so on and so on until he has a connection to pretty much all the hay on the ground right there.
And then he just. Moves all of the hay off of the second floor, so it's hovering in one big clump over the first floor. Possibly where the others are standing, but w/e it's hay he's not concerned about it.
Then the hay stops glowing red and it all falls to the first floor while Odin looks kinda smug about it.]
Done.

. . .
Cheater.
no subject
[He'll hop down from the ceiling now and stop glowing. He's done showing off for now. And no, he's not going to explain how he did any of that. He's not a bad guy (yet), he doesn't monologue.]
We'll probably have to put it all in a pile down there somewhere. Something tells me that if we throw it all outside it'll end up in here again.
no subject
It's worth a shot though, isn't it? Just to get it out of the way?
— also, how'd you do that?
no subject
[At the second question though, he grins.]
It's my ability.
no subject
[he doesn't know how to take care of sheep, sheesh! but that's not the important part of this conversation]
Your ability. You mentioned abilities before-- does everyone in your world have them?
no subject
[It's funny because talking about it this way makes BSD abilities and persona use sound similar.]
So you should count yourself lucky that you're allied with an ability-user. Just having one on your side gives you a huge advantage.
no subject
So we're officially allies now?
no subject
[Collars mean collaboration. Odin can at least play nice for the time being.]
no subject
We should give our team a name.

Not that I have anything against "purple," but it seems pretty bland.
no subject
Purple's the color of royals, you know. But if you've got a better idea I'd love to hear it.
no subject
Hm. . .
What about The Royal Flush, then?
