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.

[She smiles.]
I'm a pianist. I've loved piano all my life... it is my life, in a way. Music can bring everyone together. More than playing for myself, nothing makes me happier than seeing people smile when I play.
[She can't resist a little muscle-memory tap of her finger on his palm as she tells him.]
Or, well, right after. I kind of have to focus on the instrument, of course.
But... yes. I'm not technically a professional because I wanted an ordinary education like everyone else, but I've played for high-level school representatives who said my application would very likely be accepted.
I guess right now I've mostly got a blur of school mixed in with all the time I've spent practicing. I really hope our names are all we've forgotten... it'd break my heart to think I forgot something like a close friend.

Forgetting a close friend would be-- [he thinks back to his phantom thieves and shakes his head] I suppose it's impossible to know, but based on the way you're talking, your memories seem to be in tact.
[he tilts his head towards her in a nod]
At any rate. . . it's nice to meet you, circumstances aside.
no subject
[She realizes she's probably going too much with that touch too and draws her hands back, casually.]
Should... should I call you something?
no subject
[SWEATS]
I'll get back to you on that one?
no subject
[He's saying he'll talk to her again with that promise, right? That's how she takes it.]
I look forward to it, when you're ready.
no subject
Thanks. I just think coming up with a nickname for myself is-- ah. A little deprioritized right now
[there is SO MUCH happening and he needs a moment to regain his bearings]
