The Signup
After your talk with the disembodied voices, the deep blue-black around you dissolves until you're standing in a courtyard. It's nighttime - the street lamps cast faded yellow circles of light on the worn cobblestones below to push the darkness away, and a symphony of owls, crickets, and other unidentified creatures greets yours ears. Others stand with you in the courtyard, unharmed. As if they were still alive. No inhabitants of the town seem to be out, like there's something to be feared in the night. They are right, of course. There is now.
Welcome to Lastina. You may begin when ready.

Toby looked around seriously thinking things over. Gloves. Boxing gloves. He was in a fight and he was punched in the chest area. It was hard to breathe and he fell...and then nothing. He strained his mind before frowning. Did he die?

Matthew just stood there, holding his eyes closed- Not prepared for what he sees once he opens them. The voices didn't surprise him, his brain was most likely malfunctioning and created some kind of illusion in the state of distress- At least that's how it worked, Right? But this felt too real. He felt himself breath, he felt ground under his feet and then there were those noises that were louder than any of his thoughts. He felt his hands sweating and whole body shaking- This was not how is was supposed to go. Everything was supposed to be over.

Talyn opened her eyes, blinking them rapidly as if to make sure she was really awake. Now, she was no beleiver in God, but she must admit... not what she expected the afterlife to be like. She looked around at the people surrounding her, squinting in the dim lighting, counting each one of them in her head through the fuzz in her brain. She opened her mouth to speak, finding it hard at first, yet pushing through and forcing it out. "Hey, did any of you hear those really creepy voices? I kinda hope you didn't" She paused to take a deep breath, "because I'm really hoping I'm just crazy or sleeping. Probably the former at this rate."

Laura shakily inhaled. Every bone in her body screamed 'betrayal.' That's what it felt like. The rose necklace she got was gone, missing. "Wilted..." she whispered, under her breath. She exhaled. She was holding her breath. She wandered around, opening her blue eyes for the first time here.
Mood.

February looked at her hands, surprised. Well that happened. she thought. She would have wondered if it was a dream but she knew she'd just be lying to herself.

Despair was halfway between scared and ecstatic. I'm alive? Why? Why would someone like me be given another chance?

Venus stood in shock, "Hell is a whole lot different then I expected" He said as he looked around. This didn't seem right.

Voices snapped Matthew out of his own head and he opened his eyes- He was not prepared for what he saw. This was wrong- It wasn't supposed to be like that. This looked far too much alive and there were other people.
He felt his hands clench into fists, his painted nails digging into the palms of his hands. "What the hell..." There was an undertone of anger but it just mostly sounded weak and tired. "What The Hell." He repeated, it sounded stronger now, his light French accent dipping into every word

Felix didn't notice he had his eyes closed until the sound of crickets reached his ears and he felt that he should see something.
He slowly opened his eyes, and while his vision took a moment to adjust to the light, he slowly realized what was going on.

He remembered how fast his heart was beating when he opened his mouth to finally confess to his crush. And he remembered the sound of a sudden braking. Glass splintering. And in the next moment, pain. Followed by darkness.
And now, Felix found himself here, somewhere in the middle of nowhere, being told that he had died.

The blond boy blinked a few times to clear his vision, which worked, much to his surprise. He looked around, finding himself in a courtyard, along with some others. Did they die, too?, he wondered.

"Black!" A voice yells, not too far in the distance, breaking the layer of calm that coats the mostly quiet town. A dog begins to bark, another joins in a moment later. They both quiet quickly.
"Sorry!" Someone else calls back, coming from the opposite direction. The barking starts up again.

"This whole place is barking mad." Toby mused chuckling a bit at his bad pun.

"Please spare us from the terrible puns." February muttered.

Felix couldn't help but laugh just a little too loud at the pun. He had a faible for that sort of joke, but he was terrible at making them.
"Don't you mean tear-able though", he added quickly.

"That type of pun would work better if some tore a few moments ago," Toby explained, "The worst jokes can be worth gold if timed right."

"You mean that i will have to listen to bad jokes ever after death? If that isn't discomforting as heck." Matt said, He actually didn't mind puns but its not like he is going to admit it out loud. His breathing was fast but it could be worse. He was also pretty sure that his paleness was visible even on his dark skin but then again- Nothing new. He was still trying to wrap his head around this and it made his brain hurt...

Talyn let out a rather unattractive snort, quickly hiding it as a forced cough. "Handling shock with humor. Nice." She commented, shifting so that the heel of her left boot was digging into the dirt. She tangled her fingers in her hair and twirled it slowly- a manner that she often did when she was trying to hide her anxiety. She had never liked bigger dogs, and she wasn't too sure of the size of the ones barking.

"Well I'm torn between being glad of still existing, and wanting to die again", Felix whispered to himself, scratching the back of his head as a reaction.

However, he quickly regained his composure and put a smile on his face. "Anyways, I'm Felix." He didn't exactly know how to start conversations or how to get familiar with someone, but he might at least say his name. He had no idea why he told his name to complete strangers, however, but he guessed he would be stuck with those people for a while, so it might be nice to know each others names.

Matthew suddenly dropped his bag on the ground and searched through it, mumbling something furiously under his breath. He pulled out a bag of Jelly Beans and tore it open with his teeth, throwing a handful to his mouth moments later.
Turns out that his candy followed him to an- Afterlife? Well, it that just wasn't sweet as a button. "Matt." He said, with his mouth still full so it sounded like Mraath more than anything.

A dog comes skidding into the courtyard, stopping for a quick moment. It's a rather large dog, likely a doberman, and the menacing eyes and spit-covered fangs would ward off any unsuspecting person. But it's not in the best of shape - thin, shallow scratches are scatter across it's back, and it seems to be favoring one paw. With a swift growl at them, it scampers off, tail between it's legs.

"My name is Stars Purplechrome." Purple said. "Call me Purple."

Laura nodded, and whisper said "Laura." She sees the dog, and tilts her head, wanting to go after it, if only to give it food or something.
