BLUEBELL BARN

Who: Bluebell
Where: Bluebell Barn
When: Day 1, Post Awakening

[Making your way to your new barn, you'll find your personal meadow is peppered with blue flowers, the occasional blue brainless sheep, a small pond full of clear, fresh water, and curiously a big, blooming blueberry tree. Blueberries don't grown on trees! Don't worry about it.

When you enter your barn, you'll find it's. . .quaint.

The first thing you see is your team's name painted in blue on a wall, surrounded by a wreath of flowers. Above it is a wooden plaque with an inspirational message in the style of those Live, Laugh, Love fixtures, just. A bit hard to read.

Your eyes will be drawn to a tall crystalized bluebell sculpture below the plaque. You may feel the urge to touch it, and if not, some nearby framed instructions on the wall may give you a nudge. "Touch to regain your lost abilities!"

Unfortunately, while you may innately know how to activate them, what exactly do they do? You'll have to figure that out.

As for the rest of the barn itself, it's two stories and fairly basic. There is hay everywhere, and six extremely basic cots, three upstairs, three downstairs. If you examine them and remove the hay, each member of the team will find three outfits (+pajamas) for their use.

There is also a sign pointing the way to an attached portapotty--thankfully, it somehow opens up to a basic bathroom. There's one toilet, one very small bath, rickety shower, and sink. In the cabinet is enough soap, paper, and dental hygiene products for all.


Rustic is putting it lightly, but it seems that this is your home away from home!]

It is, but it's hard to complain about this. It's a nice thing to do together.

And blueberries are nice. I don't understand why these are growing on a tree, though.

Blueberries... don't grow on trees?

Most berries grow on bushes, not trees.

[And now I am on a long tangent on 'plants Sandry would remember, as the equivalent of the Western Hemisphere was only found recently in her world, but she also lived with plant mages'; fun fact, the closet to blueberries Europe has is the bilberry, which is a near cousin.]

They're still safe, right?

I think so? They look like normal blueberries.

Right. Okay.

Let's pick a lot of them, then. --Ones that look ripe.

Better us than the birds.

The birds will always have something.

Right. It's just part of why berries exist. Birds scatter the seeds.

Huh. I guess that's right. I hadn't thought of it that way.

One of my foster mothers was a plant mage. I wasn't her primary student, but she would get all of us to help in her gardens during weeding season if she thought we could learn what the weeds looked like.
