Who: Everyone!
What: Training
When: Morning June 16
Where: Bishamon's temple
Summary: Training sessions for everyone to learn more about their abilities and jobs!



Many people have been wanting to know more about their abilities and what they are required to do here in the Far Shore. So, in conjunction with Bishamonten, the Heavens have seen fit to offer an open training session for everyone to participate in. Here you will be able to learn anything and everything about what you should be able to do and what is expected of you in your new positions.

Bishamon's temple is sweeping and gorgeous, having previously been home to hundreds of shinki. She has graciously offered to hold this training session and will be available to help anyone who needs it.



Equipment

Various kinds of mannequins and dummies have been provided for practice, as well as targets that are either stationary or move, depending on your will. Punching bags, jumping blocks, and a large pool area have also been provided for your use, so that you can find a tool for pretty much anything that you might need to practice. Plenty of practice weapons of various weights, sizes, and shapes are also available upon request from any of the many white-clad shinki that are also attending today.

God Training

Bishamon herself will be the foremost source of information regarding being a god and what is expected of you. It is also encouraged that gods group up together to practice what they've learned and discuss their ideologies. Random groupings can be provided by the mods or you may come up with your own groupings together.

Shinki Training

Various shinki are available to help with shinki training, including Kazuma and all of Bishamon's shinki. Additionally, the white-clad shinki will be more than happy to train you on using the borderline and some of the basics of what is expected of a shinki. It is also encouraged that shinki group up together to practice what they've learned and discuss their ideologies. Random groupings can be provided by the mods or you may come up with your own groupings together.

Refreshments

There is a refreshments table provided. It is covered with light snacks and various kinds of hydrating drinks. There is a little sitting area set up for people to relax in after they have finished their training or if they're even just taking a quick break to cool down. The Heavens want you to stay in good condition!

In Summary:

• Use the state of the art equipment
• Learn about your job
• Form groups to practice
• Don't get dehydrated
• Spectate if you want
• Have fun~

[If Maria knew what Hibiki was thinking, she might ease back a bit so as not to give the wrong idea, but as it is, she sweeps the whip in a few great arcs against the target before bringing it back to settle at her side and frowning down at it slightly.]

A little heavier than what I'm used to, then. And the difference in blade segmentation almost makes it feel like an entirely different weapon.

[ The mental image just keeps getting updated to something more and more ridiculous, here, but Hibiki is satisfied with what she's seen. She puts her hands in her pockets and steps back. ]

I shan't disturb your recalculation, then. Best wishes.

[ A pause, then sure. She decides to lay it on thick. ]

In finding the perfect fit.

[ Like, say, if you ever tired of associating with someone mundane in your professional life... ]

[declamando]

[It had seemed like Hibiki was done with her own training for a while anyway, so Maria sees no need to keep her longer if she has other things to get on with. Turning her attention from the weapon, she smiles slightly and waves a hand.]

I'll see how things go. Hopefully it's not too difficult to adjust to. And good luck in whatever else you choose to do today as well.

[She can't quite read into the dual meaning there yet, so she takes it for what it means on the surface for now.]

[priforprince]

I do feel blessed.

[ And Hibiki retreats to watch her movie in her mind's eye undisturbed. And enjoy her refreshments. And search for more geniuses, frankly.

Still, they'll be hard to best. Anything that she actually managed to absorb about the seriousness of their mission here has been supplanted by how much she honestly does esteem Maria. Professionals really are a cut above everyone else!

It's such a relief to have someone here who knows what they're doing! ]
