Spring Forward

[wooliefrand]

WHO: Sheeps
WHERE: All around the pasture
WHEN: DAY 71, Morning to whenever!! It's a mingle yall know how this goes

[WOW WHAT FUN LAST FEW DAYS FULL OF FEELINGS lets just forget about that for now!!

The weather is mild and pleasant, and the flowers are blooming especially vividly now. It's like it's spring or some shit.

Also, the lightning that was striking near the mist has subsided! Still be careful though--the eye is still close, but the antlers are still glowing Red for danger. Man wonder what could have set that off. Mystery.

Well anyway Red's back in his shop, along with Daisy and Coco, and Naythan's stumbling around with his Peony Suit. You might find Stormy around if you look for him, but Blossom is notably Still Absent.

BUT HEY NO NEED TO WORRY ABOUT THAT. There are some new additions!

-A new building appears near the lighthouse! Golly!

-There's a rumbling near Lily, and suddenly a small man-made 'lake' appears in their meadow?? Gosh Lily why do you get TWO ponds! Well, this one is full of salt water, so that's a thing. Maybe there's an underground stream?? Don't worry about it. They'll also find that they now have a dark, spooky, basement--well, part of it is, but mostly it looks like a bachelor pad. But hey, no windows! That's what's important.

Neato! How are the rest of you doing?? Look out for potential falling newbies, you know how it goes.]

[ Hannya is just chilling by the performing arts center, having a smoke outside. He may or may not be people watching.

no big deal. ]

[dadinside]

[heard about the new building and wanted to check it out...

huh.]

I think Crescendo wanted something like this.

[inaptronym]

[Ryugyo went to go investigate the performing arts center but he gets maybe two steps in before:]

—there's karaoke!!

[finalbows]

[ was poking around after finishing his Big Sulk over the fact the clover got to it first

doesn't know that word ]

Explain.

( somewhere in a pile of sheep is a young girl who looks very confused... if you know her. most people will probably only register mild frustration though.

... notably, she has a black collar and her otherwise very lovely school uniform looks duller and tattered. )

... I suppose you're cute, at least.

( pet pet a sheep. )

[doublefried]

They ARE pretty cute. Be gentle with 'em, they're secretly people.

[debug_mode]

[Oh, a new one.]

Hi there! You must be new.

You might not want to get too comfortable. They like to bite.

[misdeerection]

...and that's all they have going for them. [ tsks. ]

[pictureimperfect]

[attempts to shout her name

DAMN IT]

It's you!

[While he does briefly check out the arts center, he's soon back in the library looking through the books available. After a moment, he'll grab some geology textbooks and bring it back to a table for reading.

Peony is entirely comprised of nerds, this is what he's up to today, feel free to interrupt his studies.]

[aiwillneversmile]

[swapping out his books, physics and light novels go back, chemistry and Soseki come out; glancing at that though]

About to start mining?

[sunflowering]

[ Ahaha... stumbling out of the mist and back into the pasture, Miyu is a bit of a mess. Her hair is in disarray from having been in the forest for an extended amount of time, a couple of twigs stuck in her long hair. She seems a bit unusually pale and her eyes unusually red- glowing, practically.

Her teeth are sharp.

Despite that, she manages a strained smile no matter who she passes. Her hands visibly shake. Anyone is welcome to stop her and say hi or check-in. But her first order of business after making her way out of the mist is to find Daffodil and knock on their door.]

[secondbornsun]

[ probably on his way home after nerding about but ]

. . . You look like ya seen better days, Miss.

[rugpull]

Who are you?

[debug_mode]

Oh, I recognize you!

[She moves to help, then notes those eyes and... hesitates, a few feet away.]

...Do you need help?

[aiwillneversmile]

[going to keep an eye out to make sure she doesn't keel over]

You can ask for help, you know.

[audacity]

Hey, are you o —

[ starts to reach out for her

kind of freezes when he sees the glowing red eyes and fangs ]

[featherduster]

[ -- Oh ]

It's you.

[ Immediately trying to steady her, holy shit ]

--Were you out there this whole time?!

[heavyliesthecrown]

[He wants to stay in his room. He doesn't actually want to leave. But he feels just wretched inside, so he does the next best thing. He finds activities that will keep him occupied.

For the morning, he heads off into the woods, his bow slung over his back, and a couple of bags in tow.

. . . He lingers just outside of the mist a while, steadily planting little seeds along the border of it, before, getting to his main objective-- hunting and gathering. Naturally, he can be spotted planting the seeds, hunting, or even gathering various plants and mushrooms before stuffing them into his bags. On his way out of the forest, he seems to have caught and killed a scister, which he will haul back.

Later, though, he can be found in the ocean, swimming about as a merman. Anyone in the water or on the beach might notice him though. Gathering up seaweed, he collects a healthy bunch, before making the longer and deeper trek down toward the underwater caves. There is no reason he cannot gather up a bit of salt himself. He's come prepared with glass containers and lids, too.

While below, he would like to map them out as best he can, too. This means having stuffed some parchment and writing utensils inside a little bottle with a lid to keep them dry.]

[damegane]

[While he's out hunting, he may just hear the sound of gunfire.]

[Your Name is in a grassy part of the pasture. She's looking over flowers. She plucks some of them, then makes it rain on some others.]

[...Is she helping or just ruining them? Might be your point of view.]

[strateelgic]

[Curiously peering over Lily's fence at the new body of water...]

[audacity]

[ a head pops out of the body of water ]

You need something?

[beathollow]

( sonata is... in fact, idly laying in a bounce house, watching the sky. she's making no effort to hide, but lets be real, not a lot of people go to the bounce houses, so it may be some time before you find her.

shepherds who do spot her will, if they so choose, see that her previously heavy ties to the pasture have significantly lessened. )
