[open log] everyday she's sheeping

[fluffyhearted]

Who: Maisy and YOU
What: A sheep is wandering the school, being nosy.
Where: All around campus.
When: November 25th - December 3rd OR EVEN BEFORE AND BEYOND. WHENEVER.
Warnings: Her wool is static.

[ Smash Academy, so much has happened lately. A murder. Blind dates. A woman on a murderous rampage because of a result from said blind dates.

But life must continue, we all must go on. So you're hanging around, you're doing your thing. Maybe you're in the library, maybe you're at the training grounds. Do you have a particular thing you do?

Sure, it's cold, but maybe that doesn't stop you.

It certainly doesn't stop a funny looking sheep from sticking her rubbery nose into all the places around campus. Even the one with doors in the way!

So, share what you're doing. Maybe you're just sitting there reading, maybe you're standing around in a hallway. Maybe you see a funky sheep and stop and gawk because why is there a sheep wandering around ohgod it's looking at me--

Whatever it is, be sure of this, dear Smash Academic...sisbros.

Maisy will find you. maybe ]

3rd, 2PM

Did a sheep find her way to a vacated art room that was a studio/office of this guy?

He was working diligently doing final projects, so you can sneak up on him.







But sneak up on him he might shriek. A little.

[fluffyhearted]

A sheep can easily find herself inside a vacated art room. Whether the door was open or not - sometimes, you've just got to go with that feeling inside of you that says

yes, Maisy; go into this room


And Maisy did. She saw the single person in there, but had no idea what he was doing. ... what was the whole room for anyway? Maisy didn't really think beyond 'let's go in here'.

So she stood there, watching him for a while. And watching. And watching.








"Maaaaa."

[roses_are_blue]

"Eeek!"

Garry made a small meek yell underneath his breath. It sounded like a tiny little girl shriek but uh. Yeah.

It made Garry drop his brush. Oh no...What was that anyway?

He made a quick turn to see...an adorable fluffy yellow sheep? Garry's expression softened from shock to welcoming. Was this critter lost? Looks like coming here and speaking wasn't done to be mean.

He decided to welcome this new uninvited guest. He walked to her and knelt besides her.

"Hello there...when did you get here?"

[fluffyhearted]

Even that sound had Maisy surprised, making her "maa!" again and scuttle back onto her tippy toes. What was a sound like that?! What happened!? She heard the drop of the brush as well, but she didn't notice it straight off.

For the person turned around, and she looked at the person. And as his expression seemed to soften, so did her worry. He was okay?? He seemed to be when he left his seat and came to her; Maisy didn't move from her spot just in case.

"Maaa," she responded, as much as a sheep could to the question. But just to let him know, Maisy turned around and then poked her head up towards the now open door, mahhing against so he knew she had come in that way.

And then she turned back to him, looking at his face... wow, one side of his hair was longer than the other... and it looked streaky, too!

[roses_are_blue]

Awwwwwwwwwwwww...It was so cute whatever it was. It was...some sheep. Pokemon? Odd species of sheep? He didn't know.

"Are you a new student?"

In his mind, he thought over how he could have asked that. Was he really asking anything, critter or human if it was a student (or teacher) or not? What is this world coming to? Was he crazy?

No, this was Smash. Smash is crazy.

November 26th because I love backdating

[robinsegg]

[Sig, being Sig, was spending his day like any other day: wandering around school, catching any bugs that he would come across.

He doesn't notice a weird sheep looking towards his way.]

backdating is the best put your dating to the test

[fluffyhearted]

[ You know, Maisy was sure she had seen Sig before around the campus. Doing something, she didn't know, but it was something.

So, this time when she saw him - don't mind if she decides to come up to you, Sig. Or follow you if you're walking. She can do that. Trot trot do sheep trot.... ]

backdating to the max

[robinsegg]

[He didn't notice there was something following him until after about good half an hour. When he did realize, he turned to give a stare at the mysterious sheep...thing.]

......

[Stare.]

we like our dates like we like our tags

[fluffyhearted]

[ The guy was so quiet, so lost in thought! So Maisy never peeped a single 'mareep' in the whole time she followed him. Nope, just followed, followed, and followed -

until he stopped and turned. And she stopped too, and stared.

And then spoke up: ]

Mareep.

[ Hi. ]

dec. 1st.

[idealisms]

[ S-Sheepy...

What is this little one called? If he recalls from his brief ventures through Johto, they're called Flaaffy, right? It was Flaaffy, right? Right? ]

Oh... [ At any rate, N's taking a break from his homework, reaching out from his spot beneath a huge oak tree to greet the massive lump of fluff. He kneels before here, elbows on his knees. ]

Hello there. I've never seen you here before, little friend.

[fluffyhearted]

[ A person all on their lonesome underneath a tree - Maisy couldn't have that. Not that the tree part mattered at all, the lonesome part did.

So when she had approached and seen him be welcoming of her visit, didn't that make her happy that she had come over! Maisy stopped right in front of him, swaying a bit side to side; it was a habit of hers to do when in a good mood, and it got her wool ruffled. ]

Maaa, mareeep! [ Hellloo, hellloo! Oh, and he was calling her a friend! That made her happy. ]

[idealisms]

[ Oh, what a precious little darling. What a sweet sheep, so full of energy and love and care. N could tell he was going to adore her already. ]

I must wonder if you are from the academy. To be here, I would believe so... but ah, I should introduce myself, as well. My apologies, friend. Please, do call me N. It is a pleasure to meet you.

[ He reached a hand out, but upon feeling his nerves prickle beneath his palms, he stopped short. Her wool was full of electricity, wasn't it? Better be careful... ]

[fluffyhearted]

[ From behind her tail top bulb did give a soft glow as she moved on the spot, signifying the increase of electricity building. Maisy, she never gave it any thought; it was a natural thing to her that she never had to consider, thanks to her rubbery skin.

But this human- didn't he speak so very nicely! Lots different from Gold's voice, Maisy thought. But N? 'Eeen'? That sounded fun to say. ]

Ma, mareep, mareeeep ma! [ I'm Maisy, name is Maaaaiiiisy, friend! Even if humans never understood her, she did like to introduce herself whenever introductions were given. ... which wasn't much, but she liked having a name, since it was what Gold always called her.

Once her little introduction had been given, the Mareep moved her head out to his hand. Did he want to touch her? She didn't mind being touched. ]

december 2

[duodeca]

Eh?

[Was Maisy by any chance wandering the girl's dorms being a curious little sheep? Because Noel, while on her way back to her room from classes just happened to spot her poking her nose into random places. She's just kind of staring curiously at the cute sheep critter at first, wondering if she should approach it. Was it looking at her?]

[fluffyhearted]

[ But of course Maisy is! It's so close to the boy dorms after all, and that's where she lives. Oh, but there were so many doors and they all look the same! The same as the boy's dorms did, that was. Maybe she ended up back home in a circle and didn't realise it?

She hasn't realised the girl nearby on the same floor as her either. No. Right now, she's trying to get a good look at the doors and their numbers! Because she knew which door was hers. Maisy was a good sheep who promised not to go in any other number but Gold's.

So don't mind as she backs up and then jumps up her front legs, kicking them in the air before her balance gives in and she has to bring them back down. Ahh, the numbers were too high to seeee! ]

Maaa, maareep! [ Okay, let's try balancing onto our back legs again. And a one, a two...! ]

[duodeca]

[Oh no, it was so cute the way it's trying to jump up and get the door... But a sheep? She'd never seen a sheep being kept as a pet before. Maybe it wasn't a pet! Was it a Pokemon? It didn't look dangerous... But...

It was so very very cute. Noel couldn't help but smile at it. It's wool must be so soft. Can she pet it? No, she couldn't possibly. Maybe it doesn't like pets.

... Still though.

She steps closer to the Mareep, kneeling down just outside of arms length. Maybe she could help it with... whatever it was trying to do.]

Hello there.

[fluffyhearted]

[ The sheep was about to try again, nearly mid-way through lifting itself before the approach of the woman and her voice made her hesitate. Her legs fumbled around at the sudden change of plans, but never fear - she kept herself on her legs! She didn't fall!

With just a moment pause, Maisy turned herself around towards the person - a human girl. She had never seen this person before, but her hair was a nice colour, she thought. So bright! ]

Maaaaa. [ Her hello back was a cheerful one, followed on by the sheep approaching the lady. Since she was bent down, Maisy figured that it was what she wanted; and the Mareep was more than happy to oblige. ]

29th, 11 PM.

[goldhearted]

[It's the night before the blind dates. Gold has little slips of paper with names on them scattered all over the dorm, and there's a little sheep nestled in his lap. Like the good little event organizer he is, Gold's sent out all the emails, and now it's kinda sorta past his bedtime. He's slumped against the edge of his bed, as if he'd fall back completely if it weren't there to support him.]

Maisy. Maisy, d'y'ever wonder what'd happen if someone rubbed a balloon on you?

[Little headpats for his little sheep.]

[fluffyhearted]

[ Yeaah, Gold laps are the best because then Gold can never leave her. Maisy didn't know much about blind dates, but she'd been watching Gold hard at work at all of them, so she had been feeling pretty excited about them too!

And even if it was late at night, her little tail was swaying back and forth - even more when Gold said what he did. ]

Maa?

[ Looking over towards him. What's a balloon do? Should we try it? ]

[goldhearted]

Hold on--

[Gold got up, gently shifting the sheep from his lap. For a second or two, he dug through some of his odds and ends he kept at his untidy desk. Of course he'd have an uninflated balloon sitting around, who doesn't? Balloon in hand, Gold resumed his spot on the floor and coaxed Maisy back into her previous position.]

If you rub a balloon in my hair, it'll stick straight up!

[Cue Gold attempting to inflate the balloon...]

[fluffyhearted]

[ On her tippy toes, Maisy watched from where Gold had left her at what he doing, curious. And then, when he sat back down with the object in hand, Maisy followed and took her rightful place, but kept an eye up on what he was doing. ]

Maa? Mareeeep! [ The thing was expanding! Maisy couldn't help but to cry out happily at the sight. Sitting in his lap like usual wasn't as comfortable to watch this spectacle -

so she turned on her back to watch him blow the balloon. She wanted to see his hair stick up too! ]

[trustycrowbar]

Oh hey, look who it is, Maisy. That bearded human that you found in the science labs. He's very much awake this time, and hidden amongst a small fortress of books in the library.

She may not be able to read, but they bear titles like "Understanding Magic Through Science" and "Hyperdimensional Psychic Beings and the Men Who Fight Them" and "So What the Hell's A Pokemon: An Offworlder's Guide"

He's been familiarizing himself with the school, it seems. He's sprawled back in his chair and flipping through the latter, probably too distracted to hear her approach.

[fluffyhearted]

Being only 2 feet tall, seeing most of what any of the books read is a task for Maisy. Unless they're on the bottom shelf, but with indeed being not the most educated of sheep, the titles on the spines of the books she sees are a bunch of symbols she doesn't understand.

But Maisy had never been in this place before! And there were rows upon rows, and people in mostly silence. It was a curious sight! So she walked along slowly, looking around and trying to guess what the kind of things people were doing. She didn't know why, but she didn't dare make too much noise...

... not until she saw the familiar face, that was. She nearly didn't see him with all the books on the table, but Maisy caught him just as she was coming out from where the bookcases sat. It took her a moment to realise why he looked familiar, but when it popped in her head she gave out a surprised - but cheerful - cry.

"Maaa!"

[trustycrowbar]

Gordon jumps a little, but mostly because of the sudden sound in the mostly silent library. Then the stare turns into a bemused smile.

"Well hi there, cottonball. I mean, uh..." Flipflipflip. "'Mareep.'"

He's not quite as condescending now, mostly because he's covered the chapter where it mentions that these little guys understand humans (He wasn't just imagining that, good, means he hasn't gone COMPLETELY nuts yet.) but they speak in their own language.

[fluffyhearted]

"Mareep!" The little sheep is happy to see that the man remembers her, not understanding that he just flipped those pages to do so. Details. With now having his attention, Maisy walks a few steps closer, looking to the book in his hand and then back to him.

"Mareep?" Reading complicated stuff today, she wonders? Because this man says a lot of words Maisy doesn't know, like data.
