The World Turned Upside Down

[lostinshadows]

Who: Lavi and Everyone
What: Various things
Where: Near, Far, Wherever
When: July 23-July 31
Warnings: None


A. Nightmares and Dreams [Closed to Hajime and possibly Yuto]

[How was it that Lavi’s managed to allow himself to get dragged to sleep over at Hajime’s temple?

A simple text message before the goddess dropped out of nowhere again and dragged him that’s how. But while he’s managed to somehow avoid her shinki (since Lavi wouldn’t exactly know how to explain to them that Hajime wanted him to sleep over), Lavi himself couldn’t avoid the goddess.

That’s a fact he’s been forced to come to terms with.

It’s late in the evening, during a time when everyone should be asleep, but Lavi isn’t. He’s out by the front, sitting on one of the chairs while he presses a hand against his face. Lavi is quiet, half-tempted to simply go home, but at the same time, he couldn’t.

A heavy sigh escapes from him as he lounges back on the chair, grumbling something under his breath.]

B. We Are the Warriors [Open]

[Somewhere, people might stumble upon Lavi near an abandoned temple.

He doesn’t seem to be paying attention to anything in particular; in fact, he has his remaining eye closed and seems to be deep in thought before he suddenly goes through a few katas.

People are welcomed to stop by and admire watch him work through his training routine.

Then again, if he’s not in too deep into it, he’ll stop and look over at the person curiously.]

C. Horror Movies Galore [Open]

[In a video store somewhere, Lavi is peering at a few movies curiously.

When he sees a person pass by, he waves over to them.]

Hey, what kind of horror movie would you recommend?

D. What Happens in Vegas Stays In Vegas [Closed to Allen]

[It was a bit of surprise for Lavi when he suddenly receives a call from Allen.

So, after agreeing to meet with Allen, the shinki is bit both confused and curious.]

So, what did you have in mind in what to do?

E. Wildcard

[Nothing seems interesting but you wanna do something? Feel free to make a prompt up of your own or plot with me at seabutterfly.]

C - also 1/3 what the actual hell hibiki

[priforprince]

[ Hibiki had been on her way out, having struck out inquiring as to where she can purchase films on actual reels - yes, she has a Plu-Ray player, but it's not the same - yet when she sees who's asking, she pauses. He..... ]

2/3

[priforprince]

[ HE REMEMBERED HER CINEMATIC EXPERTISE ]

3/3

[priforprince]

[ So she steps confidently up to the shelf, hands on her hips. ] It's a meager pickings, isn't it? But, fear not. I'll ensure nothing but the finest shivers run down your spine.

[ This is apparently how to cheer up Shikyoin Hibiki. Not by asking if she's okay

but by bowing to her superior knowledge of all things Entertainment. ]

Hold out your hands.

[birdstheword]

[Hajime on the other hand doesn't have trouble sleeping at all, she just doesn't sleep for long. It's not unusual for her to be up and about at odd hours of the night. Yuto and Davesprite have probably caught her up or heard her shuffling around a bit here and there before. Even though she's been in the Far Shore since early February it still didn't feel like all that long ago since she was home. She got more then enough sleep to last her awhile. Or maybe it was a faint thought of she might wake up and suddenly be back home. That's how she got here in the first place after all. As much as Hajime misses her friends, her team and everyone else in Tachikawa City...she's more needed here.

Opening the bathroom door, she steps out in her pajamas with a towel around her shoulders. Her hair is still dripping from her shower as she makes her way to the kitchen for a late night sweet.

That's when she notices someone by the front. She blinks several times, squinting a bit until her eyes adjust to the lack of light. Oh! She knows that back of that person's head anywhere! Not to mention he was invited over too so Not hard to guess! She skips into the kitchen, flipping on the light to get to work. She's quiet, being mindful of those around her as grabs two mugs and moves about the kitchen.

It's not long before she turns the light off with her elbow and makes her way over to Lavi with both steaming mugs. She tip toes over to Lavi before reaching over and placing the mug down on the small table next to him.]

Hey, Hey. This isn't a good spot to sleep, you know?

[lostinshadows]

Hajime...

[He calls her name quietly to acknowledge her.

It's easy to avoid sleep back at Cardia's temple because both the goddess and shinki pair seem to have trouble sleeping. For Lavi, it worsened the moment after Forrest's sleepover and the nightmares began anew.

Being here in Hajime's temple, on the other hand, is different. He's so used to the fact that Hel's temple is quieter in nature with the sound of howling wolves arriving once in a while, but here, he's grown acutely aware of the other presences in the temple. It's harder to sleep which is why he decided to find somewhere he would feel relatively comfortable.

So, when she places the mug down on the table next to him, he looks over at her.]

What are you doing up?

[Here he thought you were asleep, too, or he must have been really out of it.]

C

[fullcowl]

[Izuku's here picking out new hero movies to watch with Shouto. If he can't sleep, then at least he can watch these.]

Horror movies...? Uh... what do you usually like?

[lostinshadows]

[Lavi shrugs.]

I don't really have a preference. I haven't really watched enough horror movies to know what I like either.

B!

[redmare]

[Chintasu wasn't lost. At least, that's what she wanted to believe. She's taking the scenic route for her jog--that sounds better. What wasn't cool about an eerie looking temple anyway? Might as well take a break.

She walks around it, trying not to trip over stones or overgrown roots as she looks it over. Alright, maybe it wasn't too eerie. The way vines grew over the walls, it's simplicity and the silence its emptiness brought felt rather relaxing. Maybe it was because of the set up, it didn't startle her to see someone training there. She paused, not making a sound as she watched his movements. Sword training maybe? It suited the ambience of the place. Chintasu's eyes followed his hands, then his arms, and all the way down to his foot work. Something about it was rather graceful and it just drew in her attention.]

[lostinshadows]

[He'll go through the motions a few more times until he's aware someone's watching.

Slowing his movements, Lavi opens his eye and he shifts a bit in order to look at her.]

Hello?

C

[smilingbullet]

[ Oh, hi Lavi.

D2 wasn't there for horror movies but for animated stuff of the Ghibli and Disney sort, but somehow he can think of some stuff that he can at least suggest. ]

Mmmmh... Alfred Hitchcock made some really good psychological suspense that could be really scary or creepy.

[lostinshadows]

[Have a confused Lavi.]

Who's Alfred Hitchcock?

[Teach him about horror movies, D2. Or Ghibli and Disney movies.]

C

[deniles]

Do you need horror in this place?

[Just saying. It's pretty horrible.]

[lostinshadows]

Why not? You can never get enough horror.

[handle]

[ A good horror movie? Let him think... ]

I always thought a good mystery was pretty entertaining.

[lostinshadows]

Mystery?

[Lavi tilts his head.]

So you prefer the kind that leaves you in suspense?

c

[chickshades]

Depends on how scared you wanna get.

[ Bandou usually just gets his movies online somewhere, but it's worth checking the shops out if you're nearby. Sometimes they've got something unique. ]

[lostinshadows]

How about the kind that can leave you somewhat traumatized?

[Lavi doesn't know how to search online for movies.

Show him your ways, Bandou.]

let's do this B)

[likethelight]

[ It would have been a note to meet him just outside the church actually, one with quite terrible handwriting. Why?

Because the god's still without the phone he lost a couple weeks ago and has been in no hurry to replace. ]

Ah, Lavi! [ This greeting, this charm...

Pure radiant sunshine. Layed on quite thick. Too thick. You know there's probably something a little worrisome in that and how the god's attire, by modern standards, is like that of the world's most dapper bartender about to hit the town... ]

You came.

[ You should probably run, Lavi. ]

[lostinshadows]

[Lavi stops and sort of stares at him.

For whatever reason, alarm bells are going off in his head. While he's grown accustomed to Allen's strange behavior in some ways, the fact that he's greeting him with some charm is enough of a concern.

And why the hell is he dressed like a bartender?

He immediately looks wary.]

Yeah, I came. [And he's slowly beginning to regret it.] What's up? And where the hell have you been?

B

[wadoichimonji]

[And admire Zoro does. He's used to training all the time, but he's never seen someone train like Lavi is doing, he's a bit more... Gracious about it all really.

So he's quietly standing, arms crossed in front of his chest and a smile on his face when Lavi turns to look at him.]

Oh, sorry for interrupting, you can keep going.

[lostinshadows]

[Lavi laughs softly.]

How long have you been watching?

B

[fadingsunshine]

[Kaya was passing by after going to the school. She likes to go on a walk sometimes to meet more of the Far Shore and its interesting places. She recognizes Lavi's hair. Even though she knows a lot of redheads, his hairdo and eyepatch are unmistakable.]

Hey, Lavi! Long time no see!

[She seems in the highest spirits this time, thankfully.]

[lostinshadows]

[He immediately perks up at the familiar voice.]

Kaya!

[Well, isn't she a sight for sore eyes. It's certainly been a while since he's last talked to her, so seeing her again is definitely a plus.

Lavi practically bounces over to her.]

It's good to see you.

B

[sonofson]

[Abandon temples have more or less become one of his favorite places to explore. He doesn't have to worry about anyone getting hurt or if he blows something up, someone getting mad. He's sort of made a game out of exploring different ones. Plus, sometimes there's interesting stuff in them---or in this case people.

Stepping out of the abandon temple he perks spotting Lavi outside. He's....never seen the red head before. Maybe on the network? Or maybe he's confusing him for Yata or Axel or someone else with red hair. Goten isn't sure---BUT he does look cool doing katas! He plops down onto one of the less broken steps and watches, even clapping when he does a particular cool move or something.]

[lostinshadows]

[The clap is enough to get Lavi's attention that he nearly fumbles into a stop.

Somewhat startled, he turns to look at who's the one clapping and blinks once he sees Goten.]

Uh, hi there?

[His experience with children is admittedly a bit limited, so he's a bit curious as to what a child is doing all the way out here.]

Closed to Hajime; Prayer #44

[lostinshadows]

[It hasn’t been too long since Lavi joined Hajime and Yuto in taking care of some strays. However, it’s just a day later when he notices something off the next time he decided to visit the strays again.

There was another shinki.

While asking for Cardia to come help was a thought that did cross his mind, another goddess came into mind. So, with that, he sends a text to Hajime:]

Can you meet me at the same place where we took of those strays last time? Might need your help with something.

[birdstheword]

[Hajime blinks as her phone vibrates. Pulling it out, the screen comes to life as she reads the text. From Lavi. Huh. Not what who she was expecting.

That's an interesting twist to her day!]

OMW ( - v o)7!!

[It really isn't long after that, that she comes skipping along heading the destination. At least it's better then her dropping from the sky on top of Lavi again.]

C /arrives here like ten days late, i've had a tab open for this for a *while*

[heptagram]

Hm?

[Patchouli had mostly been looking around out of curiosity. She is not really the person to ask about this kind of subject.]

Oh, hello again.

I'm not that well-versed in film, so I'm not sure I can really help you...

\o/

[lostinshadows]

[Oh, this is quite a sight.

He shrugs.]

It's fine if you can't. My own knowledge in film is amateur at best.
