[She taps her chin.]
Ah I suppose there is much that still needs to be cleaned up...? I have not yet been back to the site myself yet. And that will involve neither mending clothes nor ayakashi.
no subject
Even if the festival's already passed, that doesn't mean there might not be things we can help out with, after all. Is there still a lot of cleaning to be done?
no subject
Now how should I fix this up ICly...))Oh... I'm so sorry, I misunderstood D2's explanation and I thought you made outfits all year, like a goddess of seamstresses, and that you needed help to make more. I apologize for saying dumb things.
[She bows as an apology.]
I really need to learn more mythology...
no subject
Oh my dear, but you were half right - I am a weaver goddess, and I have been indeed making outfits for the gods all year long. Some of them require very little effort, and others significant specific items and are a lengthy creation process.
However, the Heavens, well... they do as they please. I believe D2 and I were speaking about it a little earlier... they have decided to make the festival earlier than the actual day of Tanabata.
[Because for them, it's just another day.]
I must work all through the year to prepare for the festival as well as the make the attire requested by the other gods.
[But she's willing to say that now, relaxed by the fact that the festival is now done with.]
no subject
Either way, isn't the festival celebrated at different dates from July to August depending on the region anyway? Though they usually start July 7th. [ Which is tomorrow. ] Or something like that.
Do you at least get a break after one festival is cleaned up before you start preparing the next?
no subject
[She listen to Lady Orihime's explanation, this time carefully.]
Is that so? That seems like a lot of work, and they gave you less time this year. The clothes are really beautiful, though!
no subject
When last I heard of celebrations specific to the Near Shore, they often celebrate the week preceding the 7th. As early as July 1st. As Tanabata takes places on the seventh day of the seventh month, some locales choose to celebrate for seven days.
[She frowns a little at the question, then shrugs a little.]
The Heavens do not monitor my progress. It is for me to succeed or fail each year. However, tomorrow night I will be a wife again. That is the 'break' I desire in any event.
[She turns to Kaya then.]
I am grateful that you can see beauty in something that has become for me, of late, nothing but a task.
no subject
I don't think they should monitor it, but they should help out a bit more.
[ If they want the festival to succeed wasn't that what they were supposed to do? He could also comment on what he thinks about the situation the husband and wife is in. There's so much magic but apparently there is no way to help Orihime and Hikoboshi meet more often than just once a year. It seems unfair. ]
Your works are very pretty, even someone like me who don't know a thing about clothes can tell. They must be even prettier to people who knows a thing or two.
no subject
He's right, they should send more people to help you! It's the least they could do, considering... [...considering they're keeping her apart from her husband. Speaking of which!] Oh, but you must be excited for tomorrow!
Mission Goal Achieved
Another kind of beauty, that anyone can see?
[ Hm. ]
Or perhaps it is the youngest of the gods and shinki - with new eyes set upon the Far Shore - that see things the elders do not. I have not been excited for the festival in decades - perhaps centuries - but this time... yes, I am.
no subject
[ But he's more battle oriented and goes for practical stuff. Still, beauty is something that should be appreciated, be it a beautifully made garment or the aurora, or, well, anything. Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder and all that, after all.
Honestly, they owe Orihime some help. ]
I guess that new gods and shinki with different perspectives on things can cause some change. [ Though not all may be good. ] If it's given you a new spark for it then that's great.
no subject
[She means it. She's barely learning how to make herself more independent and useful, so even if it's something all new gods and shinki are causing, she's still aiding.]
no subject
[Hers has been a lonely life most of the last several decades, if not longer.]
Yes, I believe your words are accurate.
[A different perspective.]
And I believe that as I begin preparations for my work in the coming year, I will not find it as much of a burden as the last year.
no subject
Anyway, there was some cleaning up that might be needed to be done?
