welcome to mayfield: day 1

[mayfield_mods]

[As you step out of the funhouse, blinking against the strong sunlight, it may seem at first that you've wound up back where you started. The carnival with all of its joys and wonders still stands, the Ferris Wheel looming majestically over Mayfield...

...except, did it always look that new and shiny? And it's not the only thing that got a makeover either; it seems like everything in the carnival has been fixed up from its previously rundown state. Fresh coats of paint gleam from every stand and every ride, and there isn't a spot of rust or a broken board anywhere in sight. At the entrance of the carnival hangs a large banner that reads:

Welcome to Mayfield - the Happiest Town on Earth!

Just how long were you exploring the funhouse for, anyway?

And as you start taking in the changes, you may notice one other minor difference: there are no drones to be found anywhere. It seems like the only other living beings in this place are your fellow townspeople who also entered the funhouse...well, that and the large, vicious looking rats that scurry around from place to place. But don't worry, there aren't that many of them and they only come out at night! So go ahead and enjoy having the carnival all to yourselves; after all, with all those minor safety issues fixed up, what could possibly go wrong?

The back exit of the carnival leads to a small street with four standard Mayfield houses and its church at the end. Attempting to leave the carnival via the entrance (although we can't imagine why you would) will only wind up looping you to the end of this street. Where the rest of Mayfield has gone, well...who can say?]

OOC and extra information about this town can be found here - please read it before you start tagging! Remember, only those in the first group should be in this post!

[ Haruhi isn't necessarily interested in dolls. Mostly stuffed animals. But she'll notice the floating one and grab for it-- until she falls into the pile, oops. ]

(Well that can't be good. Lovers here spins around and rushes for Haruhi, her little wings flapping harmlessly while inspecting the girl.)

That's one way to enjoy having stuffed animals! Good thing there were a lot to land on, huh?

(And yes, floating doll is talking to you.)

[ Haruhi manages to stand up, frowning at the floating doll. ]

And who said I was actually enjoying this?

[suicidoll]

Would you be collecting stuffed animals if you weren't enjoying this? They tend to make things better, at least.

[extraordinarily]

I'm not collecting them. Only getting some of them.

[ She shrugs, dusting her skirt off. ]

[suicidoll]

Well that still counts as collecting, doesn't it? You're going after particular ones as opposed to any within arms reach.
