016 | The Good Old Days

Who: Everyone!
What: Ageswapping
When: July 15-17
Where: Everywhere
Summary: A breach in the space-time continuum is messing things up.

Edit: OVERFLOW is here!



The Far Shore has been dealing with a lot of space-time pulsating through the past week or so and everything is culminating on the night of the 15th, even though the Heavens are preparing for an all-out Obon bash. They had planned to have the celebration on the 15th itself, but Amaterasu asked to postpone a day due to the horrible feeling that is permeating the Far Shore.

And it turns out she was right to postpone everything. In fact, it will have to be postponed another whole month at this rate...



Before

    Late in the day on July 15th, the new batch of shinki will arrive to a Far Shore with a thick, tense atmosphere. All night on the 15th it feels like something is about to happen - and it's difficult to tell whether that something will be good or bad. Any attempts to contact the management of the Far Shore have fallen on deaf, slightly harried ears and so everyone is left to their own devices to try and figure out why things are so tense.


July 16

    Just after midnight, an explosive shock wave rips through the Far Shore, bringing on the age changes with it. Even the spirits of the Far Shore seem to be affected - for example, the library goblins are either toddling around on wobbly legs or are dragging themselves from place to place and looking decrepit. There are a few gods and shinki that seem to have been exceptions from the change, though it is not clear why.


July 17

    Another wave of energy comes in the early morning of the 17th. Fewer people are affected this time and it seems to alter those people's ages a second time. There is no rhyme or reason to who is being affected further. Several of the library goblins have just dropped dead from severe old age. Oops.


Aftermath

    Late on the 17th brings about one final burst from the energy that has been plaguing the Far Shore. For a short moment, every new temple glows with a soft light, seeming to beckon to their owners. But the light is gone quickly and everyone will find themselves back to normal with complete memories of everything that happened during their age adventures. The goblins that died, though, are still very dead. Looks like the library will need to get some new help soon.




In Summary:
  • Meet the newbies
  • Get aged or de-aged
  • Deal with other too young/too old people
  • Try to handle the consequences
  • Have fun~

[Yuto blinks at him.]

Me? Why do you think that?

[He doesn't understand. There's nothing knightly about him!]

[ And he gets shoved off, the flames still cover him but they've left the kid. Oh, and if you're waiting for an apology - not gonna happen. He's still smiling like a loon. Sorry, this happens everytime he uses his powers. They're pretty lame but it's kind of cool and a little exciting being able to use this kind of power. It's a thrill. ]

[Goten shakes his head quickly]

I don't wanna see it or ever make you mad. Really! I like it better when you're smiling.

[He genuinely means that. Happy Izumo is best Izumo!]

Unfortunately not....

[But that is an alarming request for several reasons.]

Are you hurt?

[Celty's felt a bit odd since her arrival, having to go around on foot rather than riding around. She's not had a chance to get a ride yet but she just feels like something is missing without.

On the other hand, maybe it's a good thing she wasn't on a bike when she saw this guy and his spectral fellow walk by.

She stops short, a few feet in front of them as they walk up, and she just slowly turns to watch as the pair goes by. If he hadn't mentioned Ayakashi she might have actually tried to attack the thing...but her shadow still quivers in anticipation of a potential sucker punch.

[He shrugs, looking back at the board.]

You'd just make a good knight, especially if you wanna protect people.

[The black clad woman doesn't betray much of her appearance thanks to that motorcycle helmet. In fact it seems a little suspicious that someone would just be walking around like this.

Still, when her sleeve gets tugged and she looks down to see who is addressing her she doesn't seem too put off by it. She even offers a nod in response to his question. It's true as far as she knows. Well...there's a key thing missing but she has nothing to go on there.

[ His grin widens the moment he takes off. He's been in enough fights to know what's coming. He takes the punch full force with a grin on his face. The moment it connects he gets knocked back, and there's pain, way more than he's used too. He's also bleeding. He grins, blood trickling down as white flames burst to life healing the wound. He's smiling, a maniacal smile that reaches his eyes as flames roar around him, healing him as he gets up to throw a punch back at him. ]

[Good question, young sir.] I just turned twenty! [Self-satisfied status: ongoing.]

Are you exploring by yourself? I can accompany you for a while.

[Yuto is silent for a few moments.]

I want to protect people... but is that enough to become a knight?

I'm sure there are some around. [Totally unbothered by the implication that there are not, in fact, any nearby.]

...You can tell I'm making this up, aren't you? [It's true that he was celebrating, but...] I can't really remember where it was supposed to be...

[Oh well.] I'm sure it's nothing. [Because if it was important, he wouldn't have forgotten, right? Right.] By the way...I've been wondering this, but how old are you?

[ he doesn't. He can do this kind of stuff. So, he takes a moment to look at the damage before getting down. He heads out and comes back a few minutes later with a small toolbox - where he got it who knows - and uses the tools to remove the lamp from the hanging chain. He does this carefully until the jobs done. ]

I'll get a new one.
[ He can't fix a dent but he can replace it. So, he's just going to get back down, set the lamp on a table and put everything away before returning for the dented lamp. ]

I'll be back.

[ It's really disconcerting to see someone stuck with that kind of expression. If that's how he always was... ]

Shit. I'm glad I didn't find you yesterday when I was older. Not if that's how you are.

[ The worst part is, it might not help because he couldn't tell if this teen asshole actually had his mind, or if this is how he was back then. ]

[ He shakes his head. ]

My brother.
littlest_knight: (Twins)

[personal profile] littlest_knight 2017-05-20 08:13 pm (UTC)(link)
He's my brother.

[ Twin to be exact. ]
darkduelist: ((child) oooh)

[personal profile] darkduelist 2017-05-20 08:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Twenty?

[Yuto looks at him a little amazed. That guys is... so old! Compering to Yuto that is, since this boy is just about eight.]

I am, but you can go with me! [This adult seems nice so...]
drops_acid: (surprise)

[personal profile] drops_acid 2017-05-20 08:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Your brother is? What happened?

[She's afraid an ayakashi might have been involved.]
lionhearrt: (Teen: Annoyed)

[personal profile] lionhearrt 2017-05-20 08:19 pm (UTC)(link)
[ That actually gets his attention. Yesterday? Why did he want to find him yesterday? ]

You know me.

[ A statement, not a question. Also, he's drawing closer again and those white flames. They don't look like they'll be going out anytime soon, in fact, they seem to have grown in size. A wildfire of warmth and healing, a complete contrast to his expression. ]

. . . . .

[What did Goten get himself into? He's really starting to wonder with that creepy smile Mikoto gives off. He's not use to seeing this side of the red head. What is he?]

[personal profile] songoten 2017-05-20 08:21 pm (UTC)(link)
[But luckily his instincts kick in just time for his hand to reach out and catch Mikoto's fist. His grip on it tightens absently, practically enough force to crush a regular human hand. Gritting his teeth, Goten grips Mikoto's fist to pull the god to him as he uses his free hand to form a tight fist and slam into the red head's face again.
He's not letting go of Mikoto's hand though, no, he's just pulling him in for another punch and then a knee towards the stomach before Goten shoves him off.]


Back...off.

[He's worried. He can't control his strength well. Any other time Goten would be all for fighting Mikoto. So Goten just...going to try to fly into the air again]
littlest_knight: (The Guilt of Innocence)

[personal profile] littlest_knight 2017-05-20 08:22 pm (UTC)(link)
He's sick.

[ Because of him.... Those thoughts linger in his mind but he ignores them, or tries too. It wouldn't help Ichiru. ]

Do you know someone who can heal him?
blizzardrock: (dragon's shrine)

[personal profile] blizzardrock 2017-05-20 08:31 pm (UTC)(link)
[Isn't it?? He thought he'd never reach this age!]

Thanks, I'm honored!

[More importantly, though...] Why were you exploring by yourself?

Most people love PriPara, and stuff.

[ She is not too worried about this, however. ] What do you like instead?

[ Itachi rose, before slowly taking a seat on the bench beside him. He looked out towards the park. ]

You look lost. [ He looked over to him. ]

My name is Itachi... but I believe I've met you before.
