Who: Izuku and you
When: July 26th on
Where: Various
What: Catchall

A. [Izuku can be found in the library fairly often, after all, he's volunteered to take over, since there were suddenly far, far fewer of the library goblins than there used to be. Usually, he's near the front entrance, looking through books, scowling a bit and then putting them back.]

Have you seen anything about the history of the Heavens here?

B. [That's usually though. Sometimes he's sitting next to a stack of books and passed out instead. At least he's getting sleep somewhere.]

C. [He doesn't just keep to the Far Shore though. He's the one that goes out and gets groceries for his temple, so he can be found throughout the week considering the merits of branded or unbranded products.

With a lot of coupons. Look, just because they're hard to see doesn't mean he's going to walk out without legitimately paying for those groceries.]

What do you think of the unbranded bread?

D. [If, for whatever reason, you're at a beach. A very particular beach. A beach that seems to be covered in garbage- Izuku is there. Izuku is there and he's moving the garbage around like it's no problem. The garbage that includes carsh, heavy microwaves, refrigerators- he's not fussed.]

Last time we needed crime scene investigation stuff.

Sounds like a plan. I think they keep mythology on the second floor. We can split up the section and bookmark the ones that are promising.

[He holds back a laugh, nodding.]

Sounds good. You think we might need to use the computers, too?

Maybe a little bit? But I double we'll find much more on the internet.

True enough.

[A glance at him.]

I'll get started then.

I'll see you in a few hours... Hopefully.

[If there's much. There's so little about Aidos, he wouldn't be surprised there isn't very much.

He'll start walking up to the shelves with mythology.]

[As Izuku goes one way, Lavi goes the other.

Aidos isn't widely known, but maybe they could find something on it. Either way, he's hitting up the Greek mythology books.]

[There is incredibly little information about Aidos, even in her home country.

There's just a bit about what she governs. At least in the texts he's managed to muddle his way through.]

[After an hour or so, Lavi ventures off to find Izuku. Aidos has very little information on her, which does make him a bit upset since he had hoped to find more, but being a minor goddess, it's not terribly surprising there isn't much on her.

Either way, he pops up beside Izuku.]

Found anything?

Nothing I didn't already know. It looks like I'd have to come up with a day on my own.

[There's so little to go off of.

... How frustrating.]

[He sighs, rubbing the back of his head.]

Seems like it. But at least this way, you can start a tradition for the people to celebrate Aidos.

Aidos is about being moral. I don't know if there's really a tradition that fits that. Maybe... volunteering or something like that?

Volunteering can be a good start.

[A pause.]

It can be hard to do a celebration about morals.

It's more something a person is. Which makes it hard to come up with a celebration. Volunteer at your local homeless shelter? Give back to your community?

[Lavi looks thoughtful.]

We can make something about it. It doesn't have to be a major holiday, but just something to get people to participate, after all.

Aidos was never a major god to begin with, so I think that's fine.

Something that will let people give back to their communities would be ideal. Instead of giving money to Aidos herself, maybe to charities they want to support?

[A nod.]

That would be a good start.

Alright... Then I think we're done here? More or less.

Do you want to go home?

I'd say we're done.

[A pause before he smiles slightly.]

Nah. I think I'll stay a bit longer. A bit tempted to check out what kinds of books they have here.
