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~

[He'll follow her.]

Hm... in this case, it's practicing a lot to be able to do something well.

[When she told him she'd show him something cool he didn't expect this. It's okay though, even if the video doesn't exactly interest him that much. Yuto looks at the girl.]

Is it your family?

[Because... you know they look alike, have the same name. But the person on the video is older.]
darkduelist: ((child) it'll be fine?)

[personal profile] darkduelist 2017-05-19 07:59 pm (UTC)(link)
[For a few more seconds Yuto just gives him a questioning look, but then he nods.]

Sure.

[ This isn't the first time today she's come across a child that had no memories. Mind and body but it's cute. She considers briefly how to go about it. Deku is a god so its not like anything with harm him but what will make this Deku the happiest?]

....

[She smiles, giggling as she nods.]

Of course. Anyone can be a hero! I'm sorta from your future. We're both heroes. You're amazing!

[she spreads her arms wide for emphasis]

Actually... I woke up in one, too, but it was so weird that I got out of there as fast as I could.

[He was a little sacred and very, very confused.]

[ Wow he's not that old, he's only 21 in this older form. Still, Tendou points up at the sun, a dramatic phrase incoming. ]

It's nothing to worry about. After all, grandma said this: "The sun is wonderful, it can make even the dirt shine." And as the sun, even if I were that old, I'd still shine.

[ Duh. ]

[Yuto, don't mind him.

But then he hands the board game to the other kid to let him open it first.]

[It's very, very obvious what makes this Izuku happy: Heroes.]

Wow!! Really? I'm gonna be a hero? For real?!

[This is the best news he has ever gotten.]

Isn't that messy?

[ How in the ... ]

[And that big happy smile is met with her own big happy smile]

For real! You're a big help, always there for anyone that needs you and you're so good at collecting information! You kick buttt too! Super strong! KA-POW! BAM! You're an amazing hero Dekuku-chan.

[Reaching out, she tries to take both of his smaller hands in hers]

Just keep doing your best, okay?
herofan: (6)

[personal profile] herofan 2017-05-19 08:45 pm (UTC)(link)
[He'll take her hands!] My name is Izuku! [He doesn't want to be called
"Deku" right now.]


I will! I'll get big and strong and I'll always do my best... Um... what's your name, Miss?
sweetdeath: ([child] confident)

[personal profile] sweetdeath 2017-05-19 08:51 pm (UTC)(link)
But I'm okay!

[She caught him! It wasn't dangerous because she said she'd catch him. He makes a grab for the orange as she sets him down, but he's dizzy, and misses it by a mile, giggling as he sits down hard and tries to get his bearings back.]

Hey, who're you, miss?

[It's really hard to be calm at that. Enough that Aymeric moves closer because what if anymore bad people come to try to hurt him again? Maybe he can bite them as protection? He can't use a sword yet but still...

Don't mind the slight whimper because NO DON'T DIE.]

[He's pretty persistant about that which is a strange. Dekuku never seem to mind the name Deku.

Still she squeezes his hands a bit swinging them cheerfully]


I know you will because you're you! Always give everything your best!

[She smiles more, letting go of his hand to hold up two fingers by her own cheek]

I'm Hajime! A Gatchaman! A Hero!

I need it. [What do you mean, "that's what they all say"?]

[But she has enough of a sense of this guy to know that he won't be satisfied with that answer, so she adds:] I'll pay 'em later.

[She doesn't even blink at that baldfaced lie.]

What does your grandma have to do with this, anyway?

I, um...

[Butler?! He's nobody's butler. He doesn't have the right manners, for one thing, but if that's what this poor kid wants in order to help her calm down and get over being as scared as she's been, then he can pretend, right?

It's not like it's a real job.]


... okay, if you want. I'm not good at being a butler, though!

[At this age he doesn't want anybody using that nickname.]

Whoa... a Gatchaman? I haven't heard of them before! Are you like the Wild Wild Pussycats?

[A what? That makes Hajime blink, her head tilts to the side a bit]

Bzzt! Wrong. Gatchman are more bird like. We spread our wings and soar high. Hey, hey Dek--- Izuzu-chan! Want me to show you? We can patrol the city together!
herofan: (6)

[personal profile] herofan 2017-05-19 09:09 pm (UTC)(link)
But it sounds like you're part of a team like them!

Whoaa, you mean we can fly together?

[He's so cute oh no. Leo just.

Hugs Aymeric. That's what Camilla does when he does something that makes her go "oh you're cute".]


It's okay. I promise.

No more than any number of mortals, I'm sure. [ That is, in fact, what they all say.

But Tendou seems to accept that answer, and extracts his own wallet, leaving enough to pay for the stuff on the counter. ]


My grandma taught me all that, and now I'm telling you. Being a resident of the Far Shore means mortal policemen will never find you, but this isn't the way to live.

[ Sorry, Reika. He's a Rider. He has to make sure people do the Right Thing. ]

I am but they're not here so I've teamed up with you, Izuzu-chan!

[She stands up, smoothing her skirt before taking her NOTE out and holding it up]

I can soaring more then fly, but lets go together, Izuzu-chan!

Birrrrrd

[She winks to him before holding the glowing NOTEbook up and bringing it down next to her face.]

Go!

Ahh, I can try to answer that, if you like? Everyone that's here is either one or the other. Gods are brought from their homes to replace the old gods here - although how or why this happens is still a mystery to everyone, even the olds gods. The shinki are spirits that are given vessel names to assist their gods, but they're the departed souls from different worlds. [ Even though there seemed to be a great deal of confusion about that, too... ]

You're here acting as the god, Nekhbet. She's one of the Egyptian gods.

[It's a trasformation that Izuku has so many times by now, but since he's small hopefully its cool enough. When the lights fades, there stands Hajime in her G-101 suit, glowing in all its colorful neon glory. Striking a pose and all before looking back down to her bitty best friend.]

Ready?

[She holds her hand out to him]
