[godsoffortune]

Who: Everyone
What: Information and Training
When: July 15
Where: Bishamon's temple, the Far Shore
Summary: Training and informational sessions for newly arrived gods (although there's none this time) and shinki



The product of many meetings and recommendations, at last it has taken shape. On this day, in anticipation of the new arrivals who appear in a recognized pattern, Heaven has partnered with the new gods and shinki to organize a very helpful informational reception.

The shinki arriving at heaven's meeting hall are, should they allow it, guided kindly towards Bishamon's temple. And in that vast complex they are brought to a traditional-style dojo.
Here the newly arrived gods are gathered, so finding their partner is more simple. The gods and shinki are free to take their time during this day to learn about the aspects of their new life from Amaterasu's shinki, or from the many veteran new god and shinki volunteers.




God Training

Bishamon herself, as well as Amaterasu's ever-present shinki and any volunteering gods, will be the foremost source of information regarding being a god and what is expected of them, such as prayers. It is encouraged that gods group up together to practice what they've learned and discuss their ideologies.
Newly arrived gods are still expected to communicate to their shinki the information* they themselves get oriented with when they arrive.

Shinki Training

Various volunteers are stationed around the building, passing out helpful informational pamphlets. There are many shinki, including Bishamon's and Amaterasu's, who will be more than happy to train in using the borderline and some of the basics of what is expected of a shinki. It is encouraged that shinki group up together to practice what they've learned and discuss their ideologies.
Bishamon's lead shinki Kazuma offers a lecture to new arrivals that will thoroughly cover some essential points about teamwork with both shinki and other gods.

Physical Training

The dojo is stocked with a wide variety of practice weapons, traditional and modern. There are volunteers here as well, willing to assist in basic training. (Or even more advanced sparring, depending on the volunteer.) Essential for gods who, for example, find themselves with a sword shinki but are at risk of cutting off their own toes.
Also useful for veteran new gods wishing to train with their current partner shinki.

Rest and Refreshments

There is a garden off the dojo that is free to be used for rest and conversation.
Should anyone wander outside the designated area, some shinki of Bishamon's will attach themselves to them and not leave them be until they return to the dojo.

There is a refreshments table provided. It is covered with light snacks and various kinds of hydrating drinks. There is a little sitting area set up for people to relax in after they have finished their training or if they're just taking a quick break to cool down. Even hand towels are provided by Bishamon's helpful shinki. The Heavens wants everyone to stay in good condition!

In Summary:

• Get all the information you can handle
• Veteran new gods and shinki are welcome to volunteer showing the ropes
• Get in some training
• Don't get dehydrated
• Spectate if you want
• Have fun~

[Gokudera follows Tsuna towards the bushes where the god has thrown the dynamites. Even though he's pissed, the sooner he can gather them again the better. And then maybe he can move somewhere else, if it's that easy to stumble upon him here.

However, before he can get very far, quiet little yelps of pain from the newcomer catches his attention. Gokudera turns his head just in time to see him fall over. The shinki hesitates before walking over, raising one of his eyebrows at the state of Tsunas clothes and visible skin.]

How the hell can you get injured this easily?

[He offers one hand down to help him up, just because the other looks so pathetic on the ground like that. You'll think he fell down a slope or something, instead of just tripping over some bushes.]

If you crush any of them, I'm not going to forgive you.

[Gokudera threatens, although in truth his study of the dynamites show that they're quite durable. But just in case, he's just trying to avoid getting any gunpowder on the other teen's clothes. He seems like someone who is likely to set themselves on fire.]

[Tsuna asks himself this question all the time. Why is he so accident prone? Actually why did everything have to happen to him?! At first he thinks it's Reborn slowly torturing him, but he realizes some these incidents are all him and his clumsiness. Still for Gokudera to point it out, it just makes him very aware of it. He hisses in pain, but manages to grab some of his storm guardian's dynamite.

Though it surprises him that Gokudera offers to help him up. He takes it, quickly, just in case the other decides to take back his kindness.]

T-thanks!

[ He stands back up, handing Gokudera his dynamite. He doesn't want to touch those things for very long. Especially knowing how powerful the blast is.]

I was very careful! None of them are crushed!

[ He proceeds to gather the rest up, stuck within the branches of the bushes. That should be all of them.]

S-sorry about that. I get really nervous around dynamite.

[Tsuna tries very hard not to give Gokudera a pointed look. Since most of his anxiety are due to Gokudera's misuse in his past. He then gestures over to them.]

You're not going to use them, right? At least not in Bishamon's garden.

[italianmutt]

[It's a rhetorical question anyway; he's not expecting an actual answer. Had Tsuna actually given one, Gokudera would have thought of him even more as an idiot. He receives the dynamites as they are shoved at him, and then watches the god gather the rest. As promised, none of them seem crushed.

He raises an eyebrow at the apology however. Or rather, what comes after it. 'Get really nervous around dynamite'? He makes it sound like he's encountered them often...

Before Gokudera can ask though, he's pinned with a pointed look and asked if he intends to use them here. He scowls, his cheeks flushing a little. Partially out of anger, but mostly because...well...he doesn't even know how to use them.]

Do you think I'm an idiot? Of course not. [He walks back to where the rest of his dynamites are and returns the ones the god has thrown away. Gokudera crosses his arms on top of his chest and frowns down at them thoughtfully.]

But they were on me and that means I own them...right?
