ARISE
Who: Everyone
Where: The Pasture
When: Day 1, WAKE UP
[WAKEY WAKEY PEOPLE!! Wow, no matter who you are, you feel like you're starting to wake up from a really bad trip! At least the ambience is really peaceful and the grass you're laying in is dewey and sweet smelling? Really, this doesn't seem all that bad.
...at least it wouldn't, if you weren't also probably surrounded by strangers. Characters will find themselves sitting with 5-6 other people; and all but one of you have color coded collars with bells on them. Try as you might, you can't remove them. One member of your group however, will wake up clutching a tall shepherd's staff, with a team colored bell attached to it. There's an innate feeling they should hold on to it.
Maybe you will immediately try to introduce yourself! But, you might find that difficult, as you can't remember your name. Some may have forgotten even more than that. Whoops! Also curiously, if you had any powers prior to coming here? You can't seem to use them at the moment. All your belongings aside from whatever you were last wearing also seem to be missing.
Well. This is a mess. But hey, maybe.............all the dozens and dozens of miniature sheep just STARING at you might be able to help. In particular, a small pink sheep and black ram waddle up, looking a bit alarmed.
And they start talking.]
THIS, THIS IS SO MANY PEOPLE. THIS IS TOO MANY??? I HECKED UP, I HECKED UP--!
Baahaha! It's fiiiine, we just have toss one, right? Shouldn't be too hard.
[And suddenly, you're all struck with a brief bout of silence as they continue to chatter. Well! Maybe listen very carefully to what they have to say.]
[OOC: All supernatural/magic/special abilities (including sheep powers) are sealed until characters go to their respective barns and activate them! If you try to enter a barn that isn't yours right now, your character will be immediately crippled by a massive migraine. Go to your own barn!
DECISIONS will be due no later than Friday May 5th at 9PM EST. Blossom and Stormy will take the answer from each team's Shepherd HERE. Whatever happens will depend on what team ends up chosen!
Otherwise characters are now loose to do whatever! Ping me in discord or on plurk if characters wander into the mist or if you want an npc encounter in the forest! GO FORTH YOU'RE ALL FREE NOW. You can also use this post as a mingle.

Okay.
So whatcha doin' in Hell, then?
[LIKE. WHERE ELSE WOULD HE BE, VASH? BE REAL ABOUT THIS]
1/2
no subject
He rallies ]
This can't be hell Hell! There's no fire or brimstone anywhere!
[ Tosses a fistful of grass in the air to ILLUSTRATE ]
Shouldn't you know that?
1/3
Depends on the Hell. The bottom most layer's s'posed to be made of ice, not fire n' brimstone. Since that's where all the betrayers go.
2/3
If ya kicked it, then it can't be Hell 'cause you're here. And it can't be Heaven 'cause I'm here.
Always a chance the Church got it all wrong, though.
3/3
[IF YOU DIED, HE WILL KILL YOU, YOU STUPID BROOMHEAD!!!]
no subject
Do I look dead to you?!
[ Ignore the hair it's fine ]
no subject
so he's just gonna look at it.
then down at himself.
then directly at Vash.]
Dead's lookin' real funny these days.
no subject
. . . Nevermind!
I'm not dead, 'far as I remember. And either way, if hell had this many sheep, it probably would've come up at some point.
no subject
... things at least settled enough that you bein' here's not gonna cause problems?
no subject
Haha . . . let's just say they're in good hands now.
i'm so used to marking for spoilers for my other characters that i'm like SPOILERS HERE? I GUESS????
... those people from Earth get there in time?
MARKING TRIGUN SPOILERS IN TYOL 2023
Yup.
Their timing was a little uncanny, actually . . .
2023 PRETTY WILD LIKE THIS
Bet they're gonna haveta get hard lessons on how to handle the locals, though.
no subject
I think there's some culture shock going on. People get on better than they used to, though.
[ not being on the brink of extinction helps with that ]
no subject
[well, the No Man's Land people not killing each other as much is a bit of a surprise but y'know. helps to not have an assassin gangcult]
... least the kids should be doin' fine.
no subject
[ He brightens -- all of him. ]
They're doing really great! Livio's living there fulltime, and last time I dropped in, he was even teaching some of 'em how to cook with the new ingredients available.
[ Like . . . actual plants.
Between himself and Livio, absolutely fucking nothing bad will ever happen to that place. ]
no subject
definitely something seems to relax in Wolfwood's shoulders or something, too.]
... glad yer gettin' along with him.
no subject
He's kind, and determined, and pretty optimistic these days.
You'd be really proud.
no subject
as it is, in fact, he IS damn proud. damn, Livio getting his shit together and being a good role model for the kids. what a life.]
Yeah, sounds like.
1/3
Ok give him a second so he doesn't just start crying again ]
