RUH ROH

[wooliefrand]

WHO: Everyone
WHERE: The Pasture
WHEN: Day 51, Morning

[GOOOOOD MORNING. It's still a bit chilly out, despite it being sunny, and there's still flurries here and there. All fairly normal and pleasant. Maybe you're out stretching, or collecting the morning milk delivery, or tending to your gardens and sheep. All is peaceful and quiet in the serene pasture.

Until, from the mist, something zips out. An arrow of sorts. It shoots through the air at lightning speed, its target suddenly obvious as it strikes a large landmark in the center of town--the eye of the fountain.

If you weren't awake already, the sudden painful howl from death might do the trick.

Its wail doesn't last, but the eye IS open now. . .by force? The eye seems to be being held open by strange, smokey claws. They are semi tangible, but probably you don't want to touch them.

But wait, that's not all! The ground rumbles a bit before settling? A minor quake? Who knows. But more importantly, in both the pasture within the fence and the meadow, strange mushrooms begin to pop up. Occasionally they shoot out pollen and spores, and drift through the air. They can be picked, but after a few hours, two seem to grow back in their place, so be careful with that.

DANG WONDER WHAT ALL IS GOING ON--oh hey there's Blossom? She's carrying a small basket of biscuits in her mouth along with. . .Bluebell's Shepherd Staff? wuh oh.]

Every~thing is gonna be okay~

[stares at the mushroom and the eye and]

WHAT IS HAPPENING???



[NOTES:
MUSHROOMS
If you get hit by by the spores, one of three effects are available:
-Level 1, minor effect - No outward effects but plagued with horrible, realistic nightmares to the point of preferring to try to stay awake
-Level 2, Fear Hallucinations; you suddenly see hallucinations of things you fear
-Level 3, Intense feelings of hatred for any particular person suddenly come to the surface/take over, making you prone to violence

Additionally If anyone eats, licks, or otherwise deliberately excessively inhales mushroom spores, let me know *immediately* as it will trigger something unskippable for you. ETA N/M THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS LMAO

Note that these can be avoided by just saying whoops ur character didn't get close to one golly. These effects can lessen over time at your convenience but won't disappear completely until you cure them--how? That's up to yall! MAKE UP A FEAR ANTIDOTE. Ping me if your character tries something and I will yay or nay it.

There is ALSO a source of the mushrooms, but to find it, Stuff will need to happen.

THE EYE
If you try to touch the creepy mist hands, you will instantly pass out unconscious, feel zapped, or feel your heart skip a beat. Don't push your luck for now, but they CAN be removed. How again? Characters will have to make up a way ICly; though in this case a solution won't be approved til oocly after the 15th.

YOU STUPID MOTHERFUCKER ]

[RING RING RING oh good there's tart]

Hey ate a nightmareshroom!!! Those put their prey to sleep, and then devour them from inside their dreams. . .it doesn't matter if it's a good dream or a bad dream, if you don't go in there and wake him up, he'll die eventually!!

[BAPS RUGGIE'S HEAD]

When his dream is reaching its peak, a little cloud should form over his head. That's your cue to use astral projection!! You can jump in to try and wake him up. He won't wake up from the outside.

If you manage to wake him up, me or Coco or any other priest can pull you guys out then.


[ooc:

MINI NIGHTMARE/DREAM HEART GAME. But instead of a real heart game, you enter a character's dream! The goal is to wake them up! This can be as involved and intense or as silly and short for the victim as you see fit, but they WILL die if not woken up. ]

[rugpull]

[dice bot says it'll be a work day dream unless you want spicier!!

anyway eventually, lil cloud]

[thefinalcontract]

[Biscuit...............]

Oh dear...

[rugpull]

[ENTER THE DREAM

Y/N?]

[thefinalcontract]

[Glances at Tart. Glances at Blossom screaming. Glances at Tart again... Looks at poor Biscuit....

He's going in.]

[rugpull]

[in this dream, Biscuit is dressed up a bit because he's working on a cruise ship. right now he's attending to tables--wiping them down, taking away plates, tidying up the buffet area in general. He seems focused but at ease, like its second nature to him]

[thefinalcontract]

[He glances around... a curious place but Biscuit is his target so he remains focused. He strides towards the Hyena, reaching out to him.]

Biscuit.

[rugpull]

...!

[turns towards]

Can I help you, sir?

[keeping his accent under control best he can, the picture~~~ of courtesy]

Are you waiting for a particular dish? Or in need of a beverage? Alcohol is only served at the bar but there's a lovely variety of sodas, juices, and other treats just over there.

[thefinalcontract]

[He hesitates and doesn't actually touch the other, seeing as it appears that he is not currently someone that the hyena recognizes.

Ah... Maybe he should have let Tart go instead or literally any of the other classmates.]

Biscuit, it's me Cinnamon, and I need you to listen very carefully to me.

[secondbornsun]

[ meanwhile in reality: tart sees cinnamon also just fall asleep abruptly

[secondbornsun]

[ starts lifting both biscuit and cinnamon up from their spots, to float them back to daffodil

meanwhile, cubecalling liquorice: ]

Don't eat the mushrooms.

[secondbornsun]

[ this comment is to just establish that tart took everyone back to daffodil and got them comfy and then

while he thinks no one is looking

attempts to True Love's Kiss biscuit awake

and that's how he falls into the dream hole

ok thanks bye ]

[rugpull]

[the lion is unfortunately moe as hell]

[secondbornsun]

[ grabs her skull and starts a cubecall the moment she opens her mouth ]

[wooliefrand]

[adds an important detail!!!]

I'm sorry just please make sure he wakes up the eye is open!!

[secondbornsun]

[ opens his mouth to say something

watches cinnamon go into astral dreamsleep instead

looks at blossom ]

[wooliefrand]

heck

[secondbornsun]

Miss Blossom.

[ in a t o n e ]

Give me one reason I shouldn't turn all these shrooms to sand right now.

[wooliefrand]

You'll be releasing a ton of spores into the air en masse resulting in numerous death slumbers a-and also Naythan is pretty sure that there's a source somewhere causing them to grow so it wouldn't stop the root of the issue. . .?

[secondbornsun]

[ narrows his eyes at her like he's not quite convinced he shouldn't anyway
