Intro log: Welcome to The Resort!

Before you even open your eyes, you can tell something is not right. It's cold. Not quite unbearably so, but cold enough that you can take notice of it. And as soon as you open your eyes, you will be able to see why it's so cold: you're in the middle of a snowy forest, with only a single two-lane road cutting through the thick trees.
Unfortunately, you seem to be without transportation. Fortunately, you are wearing warm clothes and snow gear, so freezing isn't an immediate problem. But without transportation, you're in for a long walk ahead of you.
There are others around as well. Other people, just as lost and confused as you are. Everyone seems to be lacking any memory that might explain why everyone is here. As far as anyone knows, all of you were just ripped out of your previous lives and dumped here on this snowy road, wearing snow gear and having any items that are important to you already on hand. And for some of you, you even have a new power, one that you somehow instantly know how to use...
Two ways to go: forward and back. Despite having no indication of which way is the 'right' way, you feel drawn towards one direction in particular. Going 'back' is possible, but you get the feeling that you will be even more lost if you try. And given that you have no food or water on you, it's best to keep moving forward.
So, are you ready to walk? Because you have a long road ahead of you.
((Welcome to The Resort! Your characters will have any objects or animals with them that they should have given their canon point, but are dressed in cold weather clothing.
This prompt is just the first part of the intro log. New top-levels will go up over the course of the weekend as everyone progresses from 'where the hell am I?' to the resort proper, and to getting settled in. For now, just start with this prompt. We'll link further updates here for easy access.))

I... wasn't even going into much detail? Believe me, you will know when I go into detail about brain-scooping. Much worse.
And I wasn't planning on messing with anyone's brains? [He holds his hands up defensively.] You are all so jumpy. I'm not performing any experiments without permission.
[He's got standards, at least with civilians who didn't have a contract they signed explicitly saying they were cool with getting random animal organ transplants and invulnerability devices. And he's sure as hell not performing experiments on teenagers, God.]

[She doesn't need to know how much worse it would be!! Her imagination's going to run wild!!
There's a definite sigh there, but she doesn't bother to apologize -- of course she's jumpy, and she's fully aware of it, but she likes to think she's earned it with her history. There are plenty of people she knows a little too well who wouldn't ask or even think of asking. So...]
Just be more careful with your words. If none of us know how we got here, no one is going to be very happy to hear too much about brain-scooping or memory manipulating or human experimentation! Okay? [it's partly real advice and partly just her being petulant] It's good to hear that you have some standards, I guess.
no subject
I'm just trying to offer an explanation for what might've happened based on my own experience!
[Her advice go through one ear and out the other, though. He's never been careful with his words before and he's not starting now.]
no subject
What experience is that, anyway? You never said.

[She's still not sure she'd trust anyone here to mess with the inner workings of her current form, and she's also not sure how much 'medicine' applies in a situation like this, but hey. It's a better topic to be on, relatively speaking.]
