[Now that Erk's had some time to settle in, Dokugakuji walks around until he finds where Erk's been practicing, Meji walking behind him out of sword form.]

Hey Erk. You busy right about now?

[He's a lot more casual around Erk than Alluka since he's another more or less adult guy and Doku's issues center mainly around kids and women. Alluka is both.]

[Through it all, there was a swipe of light that was the crux of the Rend spell. Erk just happened to enhance it with his magic.]

Hell yeah you did. Revert, Erk. Revert, Meji.

[He casts his hand out to the side a bit to let the man have room to stand apart from him when the ring leaves his hand.]

And good teamwork, I'd say.

[His shoulders are fully back and his hands on his hips. He's very proud. Because Erk had come to him when he was lost and now they were actually doing what other god-shinki pairs did when the gods arrived and were immediately assigned one that wasn't a Soulless. He'd always try to provide for Meji and Masaji, but the fact was their emotional needs weren't the same. Erk needed some reassurances. This was a perfect time for it - to help him feel like he did belong among Dokugakuji's small team of shinki.]

We can probably hang around a little longer if you want - I can take a lap with Meji and make sure I don't sense anything else around the city?

[Erk appears at his god's side, a little breathless despite the lack of physical exertion on his part, and he takes a moment to steady himself, closing his eyes and letting the adrenaline rush fade. He did it. He can be a worthy shinki. He can fight ayakashi, and kill them, and that knowledge is both frightening and exhilarating.

Mostly the latter.

He almost misses Dokugakuji's question, his eyes snapping open as he realizes he's being spoken to. A little absently, he nods.]

Ah, yes, that's probably a good idea.

[Still... they're forgetting something, aren't they?]

I suppose... the children it had already picked off before you received the prayer...

[They're probably dead, his mind fills in.]

New prayer was approved too btw so I'll post that below

[Doku is about to clap Erk on the shoulder with appreciation when Erk brings that up.]

Don't know if it ever got any. Maybe it was only tempting them.

[He scratches his chin though.]

Still, we can look around like I said anyway - sense any blight on some of the kids. If they're only a little infected, holy water ought to set them right.
