SCHOOL FESTIVAL

[afterlifer]

WHO: Everyone!
WHAT: School Festival / Arriving in the Afterlife!
WHEN: 9/30/2012. Morning through evening.
WHERE: All around! Mostly at the school, since it is a school festival!
WARNINGS: Potential violence, but since everyone's already dead it's not like it matters, BUT FOR THE MOST PART HUNKY DORY PG! So PG+V? That works.
SUMMARY: A school festival! Details here!

No matter where it is you woke up, if it's near buildings the sounds of merriment are all around. The shouts of people rooting for the winner of a game, students trying to pull in attention for their booths, adults laughing as they trip over themselves during a sport or someone screaming at the haunted house...

It's then that you realize you're at some kind of festival, everyone's invited, and no one seems to be bothering with money.

Then the realization that you're not even in your clothes. What the hell is this outfit? A school uniform? A janitor? A store clerk? Waitress?

No, no, the bigger question is deinitely "What the hell is going on and where am I?" With nothing but forest and mountains visible in the distance, it's kind of--

POP POP!

..Are those fireworks?

If your character isn't at one of the events and are elsewhere in the town/forest/school/dorms/exploring the buildings/wherever, feel free to just comment with their own thread at the bottom.

[ Hm. Well, a thing or two was better than anything he knew. ]

If it'll get us out of here, I won't complain. [ He highly doubted it was a barrier, or an illusion. But then again...he came here out of no where too. How would he explain that? ]

...so how would this spell be working, then?

[marumayu]

I've seen barriers created with the help of spiritual energy. Some need to be concentrated on for them to be in effect. Others are made with ofuda, pebbles, bamboo, rope - have you heard of this? We should have them around our shrine back home. [ should because she can't even remember if they had one ] But you know, I've never heard of a barrier that loops around.

[loserthug]

Hmm...I don't think we really had that. Our barriers were made of magic. I'm not sure how they really worked...but no looping here either. [ Sounded like they were just walking back to square one. ]

...I guess it'd be hard to examine anything, in this darkness.

[ Subsequently trips. ]

Y-yeah! I'll do it tomorrow...

[loserthug]

Yeah. Sounds like a good idea. [ Though he turned to look at their surroundings. Unfamiliar buildings, didn't help it was pitch black with lampposts far and in between. Looked like they had wandered onto the baseball field while talking. ]

We're lost, by the way.
