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~

Hm, let's hope he hasn't been affected, too.

[For that matter, Izumo hasn't come across his other friends yet.

He chuckles.]


Yes, we can get something to eat.

[That's... actually very sweet. Amaterasu offers him a gentle smile.]

I see. Do you think she might be near? I could help you look for her if you would like.

Magic? [ Yata blinks at him at that, still looking skeptical. ]

Are you just saying that so you don't have to answer my questions?
brynwieldr: (Lost in Thought)

[personal profile] brynwieldr 2017-05-18 02:24 am (UTC)(link)
Huh?

[He lets go, mostly because Camilla has taught him to let go of a girl if she says to let go, unless that girl is trying to kill him]

Sorry. Don't you want to go somewhere safe?

[ "MISS ROLLY ROLLS MISS ROLLY ROL-----WHA WHA WATERMELON---"

With a screeching noise ("KIKIKIKIKIKI----AJIMI") the pineapples try not to hit the line and fail, poofing into nothingness as they hit the boundary. The noise vanishes, too.

This does not quite assuage the little girl, however, who has kept running. But a tiny head pokes out from the door when the noise stops.

She's not gonna come out. But. It's.

It's gone? ]

Hakuryuu?

[ That was a little difficult to say (loose teeth? loose teeth), and at that Kija will get a very unhelpful stare from an equally short shinki. Holding a paper bag of what appeared to be pastries close to her, Lux frowns slightly, humming to herself before looking up in thought.

Hakuryuu, Hakuryuu...

She's got nothing. Well, sort of, as an idea begins to dawn on her, and she leans toward him slightly with a helpful smile. ]


No, but I can help you find someone who might! I know someone who can tell you anything that you want to know. I'm sure that they can tell you how to get there!

[Oops.

He shakes his head.]


No, that's what he's called. [Sapphire Pegasus seems to let out a chuckle sound as he circles around.] They're called Duel Monsters, but they're my family.
5yenwish: (little10)

[personal profile] 5yenwish 2017-05-18 02:25 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh no he's been found!!

Actually, no, he's not startled at all. He just keeps staring. A student? No, he doesn't think he is.

Firmly, he shakes his head 'no', still pretending like he's hiding.]

[ Yata cocks his head to the side curiously at that, before he hops down and gives the other boy a nod. ]

Sure! But have you ever ridden one before? Sometimes they're a little tricky to get the hang of.

[Leo looks up at this strange man, holding the tome tightly]

...you know me. How?

[ Sorry kid, but there's a hand on your forehead now, stopping you from getting closer. ]

You're not playing?

[ A tilt of his head, as he gives him a questioning look. Look, he thought you were playing, it's not his fault you decided to show when you did and that hand, yup, it's still there holding him back. ]

...Yeah that's me!

[Sorry if he looks surprised. No one seems to remember anything so he didn't expect his name to be said at all. Acutally the more he looks at this kid... Kneeling down, he squints at him a bit. He's going through all the blondes he knows...which is actually a good few. But after while he points.]

....Eric? [Maybe?]

[Several feet away, Lance spins around to grin at her. Awww, she's cute! His grin just gets wider as he sticks out his tongue.]

Nyeeeeeh! So what! You were just asking for it~~ Walking around in my path and all. It's not my fault you got in my way!

[...dude.]
monkeyblue: (Excuse Me?)

[personal profile] monkeyblue 2017-05-18 02:27 am (UTC)(link)
No.

[Fushimi sighs and raises a hand, letting the flames engulf it for a moment before he extinguishes it]

Magic.

[ Except Yata is annoyed. Which, of course, means he's going to annoy you back.

Hopping back on his skateboard, he skids around to screech right in front of the other boy, blocking his path. ]


I don't need a keeper. Maybe you should find yours, though. You might get run over by something bigger next time.

[Forrest is slightly older and taller today, but his kind nature hasn't changed at all. He recognizes Oona easily, and even if he didn't, he'd know the shoes he made for her anywhere as they skitter across his path when she kicks them off. Picking them up and tucking them away with the intention to return them later, he follows her until she stops, approaching slowly with a sympathetic frown on his face.]

...Are you all right?

[She's clearly not, but he at least wants to gently let her know he's there and maybe get her talking a little. Of course, he doesn't know yet how difficult that might be...]

[ He swims in place, hands moving back and forth as he stares up at Kusanagi with a neutral expression. ]

I won.

There are bees?

[Kija does Not Like bees. He glances about them both, quick and nervous.

[Of course the only thing worse than him getting stung by a bee would be if it happens to her. Quick, think of something-- there is a stick on the floor, and he stoops to pick it up. There. It's... ugh, bees, it's better than nothing.]


I think we should stand very still.

I'd take you to meet them, but they don't trust adults.

[Because that's what Cardia is, despite being a 'monster' in her own words.

He blinks, looking both confused and curious.

She needs his help? Lavi gives a nod in response.]

I've obviously lived through it before.

[ Otherwise he wouldn't have woken up like this. There's something else that's just as important, which is why he couldn't just stay in bed. ]

Besides... What about those other two you brought back? If they're kids too, I can't look after them. I can walk, though.
alchemists: (Look at the momcat butt)

hibiki plz

[ Do kids really lose interest this quickly? ]

What sort of party is it? If it's an important event I feel that I wouldn't belong there.

[And with that Goten's arms shoot into the air in victory. YES! He's not going to make or let Izumo cook while he's hurt but all food is good! Just not as good as izumo's food.]

Alright! Yeah! Let's go! Uh, I can fly us where ever, if you want too? It'll be faster.

[Make it easier? He's bigger so he doesn't need to hold Izumo like a ragdoll like he would as a kid]

[...!!! The moment Lance realizes he's been caught, he tries to suck up the rest of his tears.

Which just results in tiny little sobs between gulps of air. Oops.]


I... I... i-it's okay, you d-don't have to...

[Though ... he can't say he wouldn't like the company, but!! He doesn't want her to think he's weak or anything!]
redstray: (so excite)

[personal profile] redstray 2017-05-18 02:29 am (UTC)(link)
[ Eric grins, he had been right. And he nods a few times, Goten recognized him too! ]

Yep you got it! Want some ice cream?

[ ... Well, he was still the adult in the house. He should be handling this. ]

Yeah? Well, let's go to the kitchen. Anything you've got in mind?

[ He'll just slide off the bed, waiting for Yona before walking there. ]
