July Training

Who: Everyone
What: Information and Training
When: August 5
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~

[Don't worry, Yosuke, Mabel has a plan! ...Okay, maybe she doesn't but at least it's still something! Going by her gut instinct alone, she simply marched on forward having no idea exactly what she was going to do!]

Oh trust me, we are so going to be focused! It's a Mabel guarantee or your money back!

[She said with a proud smile before taking a good look at all the people around them]

That and I'm sure you're going to find your god eventually! The worst we can do is just scream and shout out your name! There's no way we can't find them then! [Just saying]

I... didn't pay any money, though.

[And he's very glad he didn't, because this is obviously some kind of a scam, be it an unintentional one or not. If... a scam even can be unintentional.

Look, she's confusing him on many levels, alright.]


And--- no way, we're not gonna scream anything! [There's no way he's going to let the first thing his god sees be him screaming out his own name in the middle of the damn street.] How the heck did you ever find your own god?!

[Please don't tell him you actually used the screaming method. Please don't tell him it actually worked.]

That's okay, you can pay me in smiles! The more you smile, the more you can finally pay off the debt!

[Of course she wouldn't scam him! She was a complete angel who wouldn't ever do anything to harm him! ...Or at least, not intentionally anyway.

Either way, that doesn't stop her giggling! With that, she leaned in a bit closer to him]


Well, do you really want to know? Because it might be something that might shock you! [No, not really. She just found out from a list of names but it was a lot more fun to surprise Yosuke this way!]

W-wait, now there's a debt?! [He honestly can't keep up with this girl. At all.] What happened to the money back guarantee?!

[Could you even return smiles? ... Agh, no, her nonsense must've been contagious!

But also sort of... well, he doesn't know what exactly it is, but at least it's made him forget about what he was so worried about in the first place.]


... On second thought, I might not want to know. [He sighs.] I think I've gotten enough shocks to last me for a while.

[... But she's going to tell him anyway, isn't she?]

[With that, she just gave him a dramatic sigh] I'm afraid that is what life is all about! If there isn't a debt, there will be one soon!

[She wiped away a fake tear before patting him on the back. Granted, she was being a bit over the top but that's okay! At least she was having fun and that he was too, right?

Right??]


But anyway! I promise you that it won't shock you, it's pretty simple! And it doesn't require any down payment at all!

[Mabel, you're having way too much fun with this]
