014 | A Whole New World

Who: Everyone!
What: Exploring the world
When: All day June 26
Where: The Near Shore (All Over)
Summary: So many shrines have popped up! Go visit your homelands!



The Heavens have received reports of many shrines to the "new gods" they are harboring appearing all over the world. These shrines seem to be additional, new shrines to those gods. Older shrines to those gods still exist, but these ones are shiny, new, and way more compatible with the "new gods". God characters, as well, will have felt the sudden pull towards their homelands and be compelled to travel to them. But the Heavens have taken it a step farther, offering the Meeting Hall as a place for gods and shinki to group up and go out for the day to the various places that are now calling out to them.

Please ignore the fact that they are mostly doing this so that you all will collect information for them without their begging for it or having to reward you.



Meeting Hall

    The Meeting Hall is being used as a sort of hub right now. Any groups that are planning to meet up and travel together can meet here, but you might also find someone who's going somewhere you'd like to and tag along with them. Additionally, the Heavens have provided packed lunches for everyone to take with them, should they desire to. This also serves as a meeting place for all of the new gods and shinki.


Locals

    Local pantheons have been alerted to the impending visitors. They are happy to welcome their brethren home and are likely to make a big fuss about their brothers and sisters staying with them. Local gods are welcome to be interpreted however you would like, just be sure not to NPC any god that is already taken by a god player. Also, you may find yourself running into some local spirits during your sight-seeing - including local ayakashi and various folklore spirits.


Flyers

    They may not stick out at first, but those who are paying attention will notice that there are a large number of flyers being left around at their new shrines. Heck, even walking through the human towns, you will find flyers scattered on the ground and pinned to cork boards and nailed to telephone poles. All bear the same message: "Down with the Heavens. Down with Amaterasu." The locals gods are well versed in the flyers, saying that there have been some strange characters around throwing these flyers at anyone who will give them the time of day. Even humans will note that some shady-looking people have been putting up these strange posters.


Destruction

    Whether you return early because of boredom, never left because you're uninterested, or late because you've been having fun, the middle of the night will bring an interesting sight to all. The Heavens will find themselves under attack - in the form of a large fire set at the temple of Amaterasu herself. The entire home is going up in flames and no one knows where Amaterasu is. They're asking for help in dousing the fire or even entering the burning home to find the small goddess and possibly look for the saboteurs, though the only people who are still around are Amaterasu's shinki, in varying states of distress and consciousness.

    Note: Who will discover Amaterasu will be decided randomly on 3/20/17 OOC. At that point, a follow-up post will be made by Amaterasu herself.




In Summary:
  • Explore the world
  • Get to know your homelands
  • Investigate insurgents
  • Deal with a riot
  • Save Amaterasu
  • Have fun~

You're just going to sit here and watch everyone else leave you behind?
candyconsumption: (but it's your love)

[personal profile] candyconsumption 2017-03-23 04:08 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, Zero, because other than yourself, Ichiru-san, and my god, I don't know anyone. I am not going to ask someone I do not know if I can go along. And, I don't want to burden you from having a good time with your... [ Brother? Cousin? ] ...family.
moonlitknight: (Aversion)

You're a moron.

[ Words punctuated as he grabs his hand and pulls him along to the Grecian Gate. ]
candyconsumption: (now my hands)

[personal profile] candyconsumption 2017-03-23 05:10 am (UTC)(link)
[ ...And then he was being led by the hand, away from the table with the sad sacks of meals that he had been childishly rummaging through for sweets (that he didn't find). ]

[ He wanted to thank him, but instead: ]


If I'm going with you, hopefully you'll be able to feed me.
moonlitknight: (Someone I used to know)

[personal profile] moonlitknight 2017-03-24 04:19 am (UTC)(link)
[ Zero keeps on walking, dragging the shinobi behind him. ]

That's a given.
candyconsumption: (our foolish pride)

[personal profile] candyconsumption 2017-03-24 04:25 am (UTC)(link)
...
candyconsumption: (we can try)

3/3

[personal profile] candyconsumption 2017-03-24 04:26 am (UTC)(link)
We should find Ichiru-san, then. I'm sure he's also hungry. We were both looking over the lunches together, but they were lacking in desserts. [ ...He's happy, now, he's glad he's not gonna be left alone. ]
moonlitknight: (Collar)

[personal profile] moonlitknight 2017-03-25 02:40 am (UTC)(link)
[ His steps slow by a fraction at those words, but they don't stop. ]

We're meeting at the Grecian Gate in ten minutes.

[ Though, he has a feeling his brother would be late. ]
candyconsumption: (when the sky)

[personal profile] candyconsumption 2017-03-25 04:45 am (UTC)(link)
[ There's a pause. Now that they're along, he could ask him something that'd been bugging him for awhile now. ]

...Is Ichiru-san your younger brother?

I won't say anything. [ He knew what happened to shinki when they knew too much. The example was right before him, and, he found himself squeezing Zero's hand protectively. He wished he could go back to the past and help but... maybe it was better for Zero to be a god. ]
moonlitknight: (Twins  †  Death Becomes Us)

[personal profile] moonlitknight 2017-03-25 05:45 pm (UTC)(link)
.......

[ Those words bring him an instant halt. He doesn't turn around, doesn't let go, he simply stops. He stands tall even as the weight of another knowing adds to his worry. Ichiru hadn't figured it out yet. Zero thought it was his instincts as a shinki not to linger on their past but it was obvious. They were twins. Izumo had figured out and now Itachi. Yet, he couldn't risk Ichiru finding out by any means other than his own. ]

Twin.

[ He finally answers. ]

We're twins.
candyconsumption: (my brother yeah)

[personal profile] candyconsumption 2017-03-25 11:56 pm (UTC)(link)
When you were a shinki here, [ He began slowly. ] ...You and Ichiru-san were the same height. But now you've grown... and I do not understand why, but...

He... doesn't know?
moonlitknight: (Tired Knight)

[personal profile] moonlitknight 2017-03-26 05:48 am (UTC)(link)
[ His fingers tighten. ]

He died.

[ And he did not. ]
candyconsumption: (fortress)

[personal profile] candyconsumption 2017-03-26 09:47 am (UTC)(link)
[ That explained thing somewhat. Perhaps when Zero left this world as a shinki, he grew older. He wasn't well-versed in how the world of gods worked, but it seemed plausible, somehow. ]

I'll watch over him too. [ He had already promised to keep an eye on Zero. Ichiru would just be an extension of that promise, and that was fine. ]

...Are you happy that he is here?
moonlitknight: (Pensive)

[personal profile] moonlitknight 2017-03-26 01:34 pm (UTC)(link)
[ He couldn't ask him to do that. Ichiru was his responsibility. ]

He is... To me, he's more than I could have asked for.
candyconsumption: (where my failures were)

[personal profile] candyconsumption 2017-03-26 07:10 pm (UTC)(link)
If I had a brother... well, if I did that I remembered... I think I would be glad for him to be here as well, despite the circumstances.

It must be hard on you... but you're a very strong person. You make it work.

moonlitknight: (You Should Go)

[personal profile] moonlitknight 2017-03-26 07:31 pm (UTC)(link)
....

[ A solemn silence follows those words until he quietly tugs on his hand and keeps moving, ending the conversation. ]

Let's go.
candyconsumption: (fall apart)

[personal profile] candyconsumption 2017-03-27 02:23 am (UTC)(link)
[ He wondered if he said something wrong, but for now he just follows the other in silence, sensing the conversation is over. ]

[ It's as they approach the Grecian Gate that he spots the other Kiryuu, and Itachi waves towards Ichiru as he and Zero approach hand-in-hand. ]


Hello again, Ichiru-san.
forsakens: (💫 ᴇʏᴇɪɴɢ ǫᴜɪᴇᴛʟʏ)

[personal profile] forsakens 2017-03-29 05:16 am (UTC)(link)
[ Even with that matter discussed without Ichiru's knowledge, he didn't exactly come off as a fool. He knew there was some close relationship that he shared with Zero. Especially when the other seemed to always find ways to lose himself in front of Ichiru. Something he had not seen happen with others. Some part of him instinctively knew they were something like brothers, but the matter of saying it altogether was problematic.

Ichiru wanted his memories back but the occasion never truly came up for him to talk to Zero about the matter. Sometimes he seemed at a loss of words or that when Zero hugged him, there was always that hint of nostalgia as if he was used to it or that it was something that occurred often. Admitting that they were close seemed troublesome when he had no memory of it. Yet, he still from time to time strove to find the answer he needed.

His thoughts were interrupted when he heard Itachi speaking to him. ]


Hello, Itachi-san, Zero.

[ He tilted his head at the two of them. ]

Will we be going together?
moonlitknight: (With a Fairy Hand in Hand)

[personal profile] moonlitknight 2017-03-31 02:50 am (UTC)(link)
[ In answer, Zero moves with Itachi and grabs on to Ichiru's hand while he passes, dragging both of them to the gate where he stops. ]

Don't let go.

[ He tells them as he steps through taking both of them with him as they're transported through time and space clear across the world to Greece. They step out through another temple gate except this time they're greeted by crowds of people who quickly run up to the trio and hand them each a basket of delicacies meant as gifts. ]
candyconsumption: (from different sides)

[personal profile] candyconsumption 2017-04-04 09:16 pm (UTC)(link)
[ This is nice. He could never think of holding hands with Sasuke-sama, and it was an odd comfort that he didn't know he was lacking. Maybe he would try it, some day. When they crossed into the threshold and they were presented with the basket, he didn't let go of Zero's hand, just took it in one hand and lifted it to his face. ]

[ ... Yes, those looked like something sweet... ]
forsakens: (💫 ᴀɴ ᴇᴍᴘᴛʏ ᴍᴇss)

[personal profile] forsakens 2017-04-11 07:19 am (UTC)(link)
[ Ichiru gives him a sideways glance when his hand was grabbed by Zero. He didn't seem to understand until he spoke again. He supposed this was probably the method that they were traversing with. He lets a small sigh leave his lips as he nodded his head. ]

Alright.

[ The younger twin only glances briefly at the delicacies that were laid out of the God. How interesting. He picks up one of the offerings curiously one they landed, and untangling his hand from Zero. The sensation of their hands touching also felt familiar, like he had done it many times before, thus it was better this way. ]
moonlitknight: (Flowers for Algernon)

[personal profile] moonlitknight 2017-04-12 02:04 am (UTC)(link)
[ Once they arrive, Zero lets his hold on them slip as he's showered by people lining up to greet him, offering their baskets of food and wine. A little overwhelmed, he even accepts a flower wreathe by a little girl who seemed happy to plop it on his head before moving on to the other two shinki and offering the same crown. ]
candyconsumption: (everybody needs someone)

[personal profile] candyconsumption 2017-04-12 05:12 am (UTC)(link)
[ Itachi had been digging in the basket and pulling out what looked to him to be a sort of candy when the young girl offered him the flower crown, the leaves of laurel. He thanked her before taking it, and didn;t hesitate to put it on his head. He saw no reason to deny it. He looked to Zero and Ichiru. ]

It looks like they are happy to see Hades.

Have you ever been here before, Zero?
