Where: The Far Shore, all over
Warnings: n/a

---
PROMPT A - All Month: Before 10am (with or without Hajime)
[ Kairi and Hajime have taken to jogging in the mornings. You could very easily flag one or both of them down to say "Hi!" You could also use it as an excuse to have your character stop by the Artemis-Baldr temple later on if they see Kairi and remember something else they want to talk about. ]

PROMPT B - July 1-2: Lunch & Early Afternoons (Nimbus Errands)
[ After Kairi's request for pictures of Roxas or Leo goes up, she'll be bouncing between picking them up, buying supplies, and checking in at Forrest's temple for his side of the party prep. How is she getting around so fast? By riding Goten's little orange cloud friend. This time she actually got permission to borrow it for the 48 hours immediately before the party, so that hopefully Roxas wouldn't notice how long she was gone just from all the walking!

Feel free to flag her down from her cloud or assume she's visiting your character for a party-related reason. ]

PROMPT C - July 1-2: Late Afternoons & Evenings (Party Prep at Baldr's Place)
[ Maybe you saw Sora's announcement about the Leo + Roxas party, or Kairi's BBS request for pictures. Or maybe you saw Kairi out jogging earlier, or riding around on Nimbus doing her errands.

The point is that after she gets that much accomplished, she'll be holed up in a locked room of the Baldr temple getting decorations ready and stocking some of the non-perishable snacks for the party. ]

PROMPT D - All Month (not July 1-2): Afternoons & Evenings (Training)
[ Kairi has mentioned more than once to more than one shinki about Spell training, and more than one god about Swordsmanship or Hand-to-Hand training. Why not follow up on her offer? They can go somewhere else entirely to train, it doesn't have to be the Artemis Temple. After all, they might bother the 17 deer and 1 bear and... all of the other animals hanging around. ]

PROMPT E - Artemis-Baldr Temple famjam CR
[ You may be interested in Kairi's other log where she regained one of her memories. Feel free to tag that one or follow up in here too. ]

PROMPT F - All Month (not July 1-2): Wildcard!
[ I'm available on

frudence for plotting something out! Or if we talked about a thread previously, feel free to follow up on it here! ]

[Kairi's attention does shift rather quickly from the woman who is so happy she can barely stand it to the sneezing coworker.]

Boy, it's like a super-bad-luck ayakashi hanging around here or something...

[She whispers that to Hajime under her breath before moving over to the coworker.]

Hi ma'am, what's wrong? You're sneezing an awful lot, huh?

[And while she's at it, Kairi offers the woman two tissues.]

Right? Good thing we're here to balance out the bad with some good!

[Kairi is so cute! She's so good! Hajime giggles to herself, cupping her own face as she wiggles. She really is happy she sought Kairi's help out. Once she's done gushing over her, Hajime's attention focuses back on the co-worker.

The co-worker takes the offered tissue, holding it to her nose while looking exhausted]

"Thank you....Some of the kids must of had something. I can't keep going like this. I just keep sneezing and sneezing. It's getting worse."

[Day cares can be a breeding ground for that kind of thing.]

[She sees Hajime's reaction out of the corner of her eye and starts to get a little worried. Another Hibiki? She's becoming way too hyper-sensitive about this now. Both of them act that way around everyone. It's not the same thing as her problems with Lance and Forrest, she keeps telling herself.]

Okay, well... don't worry then! We'll just go see what we can find that would help you out! Hopefully it's not something like allergies?

"No I don't have any allergies-- Well I used to, as a kid, but I thought I'd outgrown those?"

[Kairi shakes her head.]

I'm no doctor, but that could be it too - both of them at the same time would make you feel really awful I bet!

[Hajime shifts from heel to toe, watching the scene play out from before here. Looking around the day care doesn't really offer any spare clues either. The place is pretty clean with windows and back door open to allow fresh air in.

Humming she takes out her phone and clicks around on it.]

"Please don't jinx me...that would be terrible"

The woman from before looks to her co-worker with a bit of concern. "Perhaps you're still getting adjusted. You only got here less then two weeks ago."

[Hajime bounces up and skips over to the group, holding out her phone. It's a weather page.]

The dust and dander in the forecast has been super high the last few days. I betcha that doesn't help anything, even my nose is a bit tingly.

[Kairi looks genuinely confused.]

You can get allergies from dust and dander?

[She grew up on an island not that she remembers it. That seems genuinely impossible to her.]

"Well, not around here most of us don't, but she spent most of her adult life in Britain after all."

"My parents moved there when I was a kid and I wanted to come back... I didn't even think about my allergies when I started thinking about my work visa..."

[Kairi doesn't know exactly where Britain is so she turns to Hajime.]

I guess Britain must not be very similar to Egypt then?

There's probably a lot less dust and stuff in Britain, so it can't be that strange that you'd need time to adjust. I betcha if you get a mask or something to sorta filter more of it out when you're outside that'd help until you get use to it. Smaller doses...especially if you're getting sick!

[She smiles to the women and then Kairi, pulling her phone back after wiggling it a bit. The little kushinadahime en-musubi comb charm jiggling with it.]

Sorta kinda! Some people are more sensitive to it. The air here is different then the one in Japan or other places we're use to.

[Can't compare to how clean the air in the Far Shore must be!]

Ohhh... Okay, so they really are that far apart!

[She does realize from the map just how far apart some of the countries that the Far Shore gods represent are.]

Okay, so we'll run out and get you some allergy medicine and a mask, then that'll help you get over whatever the kids gave you too!

[That sounds like a solid plan, so off Kairi goes with Hajime fast behind her to leave the daycare center. Thankfully they're on a pretty active street.

Kairi points a little further down to the corner.]

That looks like the kind of store that would have medicine, right?

Looks like it to me! Race ya!

[Hajime grins at her, giving a playful bump with her elbow before picking up speed to a quick jog. Everything in the town is pretty compact and easy to get to on foot. Or at least thus far.

Once inside and with a bit of searching, comparing various over the counter medicines, finding a mask and paying for the products. They're on their way back to the day care.]

I bet this will help a lot.

ACK, WAIT UP!

[Kairi starts running after Hajime, and though she's in pretty good shape, it's not AS good as Hajime. She's definitely taking Hajime up on those jogging mornings after this!]

PHEW!

[Now she's got a flush to her as they run through all of the items, and then jog right on back.]

Starting tomorrow... I'm definitely... going with you... in the mornings!

[Because that was more of a sprint! At least they're inside of the daycare again now.]

I think so too! Here you go, miss...

"Oh thank you! This should help ever so much..."

[Kairi turns to Hajime and they share a high-five!]
