[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.]

Schuldig doesn't waste any time which works well for him too. He wants a fight! The gloves glow a bright blue as the grip on the crowbar tightens as it slashes through the ayakashi with ease. It's a strange feeling but it's almost like he's swinging along with Schuldig yet he can feel the creature's flesh tearing from the force. There's hardly any resistance, it's a quick swift swing.
Easy!
Or it seemed that way. A small surprise gasp escapes Goten as the ayakashi doesn't disappear. The damage is still there, the ayakashi is even split down the middle but both halves are wobbling, shifting into two identical ayakashi.]
'Whoaaaa! There's two! There's two! How'd that happen?!'
[They don't seem happy either. As soon as the two are full formed, they're bouncing up throwing themselves at Schuldig.]
no subject
[Sure, he's cussing out a kid. He doesn't care. That's NOT what was supposed to happen!]
Get ready, damnit - we're gonna try this again!
[But not with the crowbar. He drops that like it's made of molten lava, then teleports somewhere up high, balling one fist into the other, then staring down at his hands. Okay so the Rend spell didn't actually work using the crowbar... because the crowbar wasn't his shinki, maybe? It's the best idea he has to go on. He jerks his head up when the two blobs start heading their way, slowly gurgling upwards over all of the boxes.
Schuldig teleports to one side so that he can look up at the door... then the wall... then the roof. Can this kid take down a whole wall, or maybe just part of the roof, with this power of his? ... Maybe? Schuldig's ready to find out. He teleports up to the roof and finds an ornament that's hanging off the side - nice heavy piece of rock he knocks gently against with one glove to dislodge it into his other hand.
Then, he teleports back inside and hurls the rock at one of the blob's "heads" as best he can figure. But that's just to distract it. Then, he runs up close and extends a hand: palm first.]
REND!
no subject
'You're the one that can move and stuff! Maybe you did it!'
[Goten huffs right back feeling frustrated, the gloves getting a little warmer as a result but nothing overly noticeable. He tries to work with Schuldig, not against him. After all, the ayakashi is the problem so he doesn't argue more then that and leads his power as he can. When Schuldig goes to hurl the rock, Goten tries to focus on it, causing the gloves to glow a little as the rock leaves Schuldig's hands. The kinetic energy blasts the rock through the ayakashi's head like it's nothing and collides with wall and ground behind it making a crater and shaking the building.
But that isn't the final blow. Goten tries to push more power into the Rend spell. He wants this to work! It's got to work! The moment Schuldig's palm connects there's a half-second where nothing happens before the ayakashi's body gives a delayed ripple before flying backwards, slamming through the wall and exploding.]
no subject
[Schuldig teleports backwards to survey the impressive hole that got created and the goop dripping from the edges of it all. Of course, that's when the wall starts to crumble.]
Looks like the place is caving in - that should take out the ayakashi fine.
[And less work for him.
Schuldig teleports back to their old survey spot from earlier and just watches - he's been on the inside of a crumbling building plenty of times now. He doesn't need a third experience of it at all. He watches the damages as it happens, very quickly since the hole was pretty huge. As it turns out, the opposite corner stays intact and it's just one corner plus half the roof that falls over onto the ayakashi.
He waits, looking around... Until finally more ayakashi goop starts filtering out from underneath the rubble.]
Nicely done.
[But as he keeps watching it, the goop doesn't fade the way he expects when ayakashi are defeated.]
no subject
'That worked better then before...but is it really gone, now?'
[This is his first time experiencing rend or any of that so he's not sure how it's suppose to look. The fact the goop is still there is unsettling. If only they could blast it until there was nothing left. As a vessel though, Goten isn't sure he can do that. Out of vessel, his blasts would do the jump either so...]
no subject
[Yet he's watching the goop start to coalesce again.]
But it's not. Damn.
[Schuldig splays his hands wide as if to stretch them and cracks his neck, then sighs.]
Alright. One... more... time...
[Schuldig starts sending more power through Goten's vessel form and leans down hesitantly before slapping the reforming ayakashi.]
And - REND!
