[OPEN] Near Shore: Grisly Kabuki Show
[A long time ago, okay two weeks ago, someone had anonymously suggested to Schuldig that he go to see a kabuki show. Not just any kabuki show, though - Yotsuya Kaidan, the Ghost Story of Yotsuya - on the promise that there was 'plenty of grisly revenge for you there.'
Now that he's being subtly encouraged to get out and about more, he's planning to see it. If you see him on his second or third watch, he might even be outside of the theater conning scalpers out of their own money - a deal that's not a deal sort of thing where he buys 7 at the cost of 10 - so that he can give them to people waiting in line.]
[OPEN] Near Shore: Beach Bum
[Schuldig's pale skin is getting tanned and those sunglasses he's normally only wearing like decoration are actually getting use, finally. Feel free to notice him lounging or trying to chat up the lifeguards.
Then there's the matter of trying to be a good-hearted God of Mischief down here. If he notices that there are people haggling down 'tourist' prices from the locals, he uses his telepathy to calm both parties down. If he sees kids playing pranks, he'll help them not get noticed by parents or authority figures as they run off. That sort of thing.]
[OPEN] Near Shore: Ayakashi
[If you've wandered near that fishy ayakashi and gotten yourself trapped, he'll definitely notice, or try to keep you away from it if he notices you wandering too close. He can hear the thoughts of ayakashi getting closer - the raw, tangled mess of raw emotions that is - as well as those of gods and shinki without strong mental shields.
If you actually do manage to get yourself trapped, he'll have to call a shinki to get you out of there, but he might still do it. Depending on who it is and depending on if you got yourself trapped so that one of his followers didn't get caught.]
[OPEN] Near Shore: Fireworks
[Trying to get a better spot to watch? Schuldig might use his telepathy to convince some noisy neighbors on a blanket to take their drinking elsewhere so you can have that one. Or he might be able to get a crying baby to fall asleep. The line for drinks & food could be a lot shorter as soon as he decides to go there, standing behind you in line. If you're trying to get an adult beverage and you're not an adult, he has no problem getting you one. Drinking customs in Europe are different, so he doesn't care.]
[OPEN] Far Shore: Anywhere But His Temple
[Even while very empathetic towards the human race now - specifically his followers - Schuldig doesn't plan to invite people out to his temple. As a result, he's out wandering. Specifically, he's combing the place for one of Amaterasu's lackeys somewhere down the chain of command with low enough mental shields that he can read their minds. It's a promise he owes Jae-Ha, actually.
As a result, Schuldig could be found just about anywhere standing off to the side with a thousand-yard-stare as he canvasses small sections of the Far Shore for just such a lackey.]

This cute little miss was all the power against that great beast? Zeno should be thanking you! Zeno's in so much trouble... in desperate need of a bath, but Zeno never wants to be under water again!
no subject
[He gestures to Zeno while speaking to Jennifer.]
Guy was running around telling stories when I first met him, so we sat for a drink and swapped them instead.
[Which hilariously was even before Saint Schuldig appeared on the scene. Then he turned to Zeno.]
Now you see why I like having her around. You would be lucky to find yourself such a shinki. It makes answering prayers much easier, Zeno.
no subject
She's also not used to Schuldig being open about liking to have her around or anything, so she simply bows her head.] I... was just doing what I'm supposed to do. That's all. [And humble as ever. But she curtsys anyhow]
Pleased to meet you, Mr. Zeno. I'm glad I was able to help
no subject
[Any longer and the horrible choice between breathing in the water and drowning, or blacking out from lack of oxygen and then drowning...
He shakes some of the pond water out of his hair, and wonders... how that worked. The pond water... probably should not have worked, not with only his prayers to Hiryuu and the dragon gods, and the proximity to another god's shrine. Maybe Schuldig prayed as well, or maybe his one artifact from a true god...
As if called by the thought, the clanging of Hiryuu's pendant reappearing around his neck jars him back. He was meeting someone. He quickly tucks it under his soaked and tattered clothes, only the rich polished beads on the chain showing at the sides.]
Zeno despairs of ever finding one as sweet as the one lost, or this miss here, but Zeno is happy to wait.
no subject
Hopefully you won't be waiting long.
[He gives a little two-finger wave from the spot where his sunglasses sit on his headband.]
Come on, Jennifer.
[And he teleports them both back out to the temple, although he's quick to remember that he pulled Jen from somewhere else and offers to teleport her back wherever that was before going back to his business of the day.]
