[Closed] At least there's adults at this party
Who: All KH characters + their shinki (if applicable), Urashima, Nohr clan, Aymeric, Sheryl, and Jakob
What: A huge meetup because people need to see faces that go with names
Where: Artemis' and Baldr's temples respectively
When: May 21st - 22nd (Basically show up whenever and leave whenever)
Warnings: N/A
[Those invited will have most likely gotten a text or other way of communication to let them know there was something going on at this time and date. There is no set time per say, so it's an open invitation to show up even before sunrise if you feel crazy enough to deal with the wildlife in Artemis' place.
The party can be spent between the two places that are somehow linked by a trail. Either side will have amenities/foods/entertainment suitable for a meetup (though if you want tea/coffee, stick to the side that isn't Baldr's place).
There will be a sign on Artemis' side that warns of getting near the bear or deer since they are skittish around too many people, so one side of Artemis' temple will be sealed off to visitors unless you ask very nicely to see the deer. There will also be a sign that reads "NO SWIMMING IN THE LAKE". At least there's a nice fire in the fire pit on the patio, and those who stay the night at this temple will... see a bunch of glow in the dark stars on the ceiling.
Baldr's side... pretty much do whatever you want within godly legal limits? If you want to swim, go to that side. If you want to sleep under the stars, go to that side. If you want to be around wildlife that can't possibly gore you to death or maul you (unless it's your unlucky day and the bear decides to hang at the beach), go to that side.]
[ooc: treat this like a mingle! have at it!]

How does that even happen? Did they ask your permission first?
no subject
no subject
[And continues to reinforce the fact that Roxas is a genuinely good person in her eyes.]
no subject
[Is that how he's supposed to understand it like that?]
no subject
[She shakes her head.]
I don't know - like being another god's shinki was going to hurt you somehow. Like I shouldn't do it. Betrayal, I guess.
no subject
[He's seen that first hand on the network. Forcing a name on a shinki? Despicable.]
no subject
No, I definitely don't feel unsafe with you, Roxas.
[Dangit she's going to lean over and give him a hug.]
no subject
That did not end well.]
Really?
[Kairi should be glad that Sora is Roxas' partner since he'll return the hug.] Thanks.
no subject
If anything, I think I'm super lucky. You let me go out on my own my first day... and I really helped people I think! It felt so good to meet other shinki, too. I asked a lot of people what they think it means to be a good shinki, so now I have some ideas.
no subject
[Well, Senri had to be tracked down...]
no subject
Sure, it'd be mean, but apparently some gods are like that. So I'm just glad that you're not.
['Mean' is hardly the word for what happened to Sousuke, but she also assumes that there's a gradient of personalities and maybe lesser versions of what he suffered could be considered 'mean.']
How do you decide which shinki you take out with you on prayers?
[It's something Bishamon got her thinking about - that and 'exemplar'.]
no subject
no subject
[She hasn't spoken to Raichi yet so any difficulty is lost on her, but Senri she remembers being told before was really quiet. Maybe he's a young boy like Goten, except opposite in personality.]
Still, Raichi was your first shinki, right?
[He seems to always mention him first, anyway.]
So he's your exemplar?
no subject
[Roxas has just learned recently how babies are made and Artemis happens to be a goddess who presides over children, women, and childbirth. He shudders.
He blinks as he nods.]
Exem-what?
no subject
--Plar? Exemplar?
['An exemplar serves as our guide. They are our most trusted shinki or the one who's been with us the longest. ... Most times, they're a god's only shinki as is the case with many newcomers.' That's what Lady Bishamon told her.]
Your first shinki, I heard.
no subject
Raichi is far from an exemplar. Senri too.
no subject
[She's not sure she fully understands how Bishamon and Roxas could have such different views on something she'd thought was just kind of... required of gods. But she's also not a god.]
Okay.
[Because what else can she say? Neither of them are his 'most trusted' meaning he just doesn't trust them? But they covered that already... so all of the confusion as she just stares at her lap trying to figure it out.]
no subject
[Does that make sense? Because Raichi would be exemplar of power, Senri of.... kindness? And Kairi... Kairi would be exemplar of just being Kairi.]
no subject
Well, I don't know - it's not my call, after all. Thank you for thinking of us like that.
[After all, she'd more or less resigned herself to being third tier, so he'd basically proven himself right already.]
no subject
Why wouldn't I? You're all important to me.
no subject
Just a hunch, I guess. I'm not used to being depended upon, even if I like how it feels now.
[For which she has no real good justification other than that's the feeling she's getting.]
no subject
[At least he can help people here.]
no subject
Go us. I feel the same way.
[She thinks she's really lucky to have a god like him. This should be easy to adjust to, memories or no.]
no subject
You know, you should be glad you don't have to listen to some of the requests my followers send me.
