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.

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~

[And once you've worked with someone, gone drinking with them, and shared a few of your deepest hopes and fears... well, that's close enough to friendship that he supposes he can use the word.
He's not surprised that Jennifer had been quiet about it, though.]
Jennifer did seem very quiet.
[He sighs, and adds:] I disappeared for about a week before becoming a god. If it helps -- I don't remember a thing about it. It seems to be painless.
no subject
[ What? It seemed like enough of a possibility. It wouldn't be so strange for someone that had an awareness of youkai, but not an understanding of how the relations between them and religious groups could be. Not exactly. ]
I'm not going to be too worried about her. Jennifer may have been quiet, but I can tell that she was strong enough to be fine, whether she was here or where she belonged.
no subject
[Also before. Gojyo's past is implicated in that, too, though; and the less Hakkai lets slip to anyone about that, especially people he doesn't know well, the better.]
I'm sure she will be.
no subject
[ Did that mean Sharak was his god back then, and now they were on the same terms? That must've been an interesting development, though she couldn't imagine the woman letting it get awkward.
It was hard to imagine she'd 'let' anything happen that she didn't want. ]
Thank you for trying to provide some comfort. It's appreciated.
no subject
It's not easy to take comfort in anything that starts, I'm sure, I know.
But please take care, regardless.
no subject
[ Was she even in a state to need some kind of comfort? There was a good level of shock, but was she broken up about this loss? Was it wrong not to be? They had gotten along, after all. ]
no subject
[He eyes her.] You do have somewhere to go, you said. Would you like any help? Moving your belongings, for instance...?
[It does sound like shock. Perhaps it'll be easier for her to guess how she feels about it once she's had the chance to adjust to the idea.]
no subject
[ She has people she can ask, for where to go, but the idea of her things went to the back of her mind until that had come up. ]
I mean, I didn't really have all that much. With how recently I had shown up, I just have some clothes.
no subject
It's at least worth a look.
no subject
[ Creating the oar and sitting on it, there's an unfortunate reason why she's not delaying it for too long. ]
I don't exactly have anything shinki-related to train anymore, after all. I'll just have to work on it the next time I'm here with a name again.
no subject
[He tilts his head back a little to watch her; she's a bit taller on her floating oar. What a bizarre traveling method.]
If you want to stop by the school, there's plenty of free space there to train. And, ah... make up your lost time.
no subject
I'll be sure to keep that in mind. It's a shame, too. I was just getting the hang of improving the borderline with my spirit energy, too.
no subject
... And you'll have to show me that trick, once you can. [Not that he can cast a borderline any longer, but he has enough control of his energy that he might be able to give other shinki advice.]
no subject
[ She needs to catch up and surpass Chikusa, just to keep him from breaking her borderlines again. ]
no subject
[He pauses, and then bows.] I look forward to it. But I won't keep you.
no subject
[ She can't let someone down if they're looking forward to a good show, right? Raising her hand in a friendly farewell, Botan flies off to make sure she even has her things still. ]
