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.

He actually pauses there and thinks about what she's saying and how she's saying it before he responds.]
You're just...fine with that? With not knowing anything?

[That's...surprisingly mature. He can respect that.]
Okay. Where do we go from here then?
no subject
( it ain't much! but it's gotta be worth something, yeah? )
I... would prefer working together, but if we're being asked to vote someone as sacrifice, that... does kill a lot of chance for peace, even if it's just something minor like pricking your finger - it's the alienation that the chosen team might feel that I worry about.

[Iida seemed like the self-sacrificing type, so.]

( just... looks at the rose shepard. you know the one. )

[Yeah he's met her, she's a real peach.]
no subject
( the arrival did leave her almost entirely amnesiac, after all. )

I guess we'll see once the decision is made.

oh well, not this head-empty's problem. )
Yes, though... somehow I don't think everyone will be happy. But if we spend too much time worrying about it, it'll be time to act and we'll not have come to a decision.
