Where: Bishamon's temple, the Far Shore
Summary: Training and informational sessions for newly arrived gods and shinki



In anticipation of the latest round of new arrivals, Heaven has partnered with the new gods and shinki to organize a very helpful informational reception.

Gods and shinki arriving at heaven's meeting hall are, should they allow it, guided kindly towards Bishamon's temple. In that vast complex they are brought to a traditional-style dojo. The gods and shinki are free to take their time during this day to learn about the details of their new life from Amaterasu's shinki or from the many veteran new god and shinki volunteers.




God Training

Unfortunately, Bishamon is away on business today, but her shinki as well as Amaterasu's ever-present shinki and any volunteering gods will offer 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 receive as orientation 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 as well as offering a lecture on the basics of what is expected of a shinki and the importance of teamwork with other shinki and with gods. It is encouraged that shinki group up together to practice what they've learned and discuss their ideologies.

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.) This is vital for gods who, for example, find themselves with a sword shinki but are at risk of cutting off their own toes.
It's 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~

What does my ARM have to do with anything!?

[what the fuck, niles]

[Needless to say, he's taking another long step backwards.]

[deniles]

Maybe if we remove it, you'll have a better chance at casting better borderlines.

[Due to being afraid.]

[artificialrose]

That is not how it works.

[Some of the fear is- not leaving, exactly, or being replaced, but starting to get an edge of anger to it.]

[deniles]

And how would you know? You can't even do one.

[Another step closer.]

[artificialrose]

You mean you harassed me before I could do one.

[Fuming and finally just done with it, he takes a long step forward himself that gets him right into Niles' space.]

[deniles]

You're full of excuses.

[He steps even closer to him so they're nearly touching.]

Just do one and quit trying to defend why you can't.

[artificialrose]

And you're full of something yourself-

[Scowling, he raises one hand as if to smack him, or cast a borderline- but it's become obvious to him that upfront moves of any kind are going to be dealt with easily by this particular asshole. So he goes for something a little more underhanded.]

[He moves his other hand for a grab of the other man's "family jewels" to try and twist a little.]

[What? It hurts. A lot. Anyone knows that. And hopefully he'll be successful enough that this guy stops fucking bothering him.]

[deniles]

Oh, there's plenty of things I'd like to be full of.

[He laughed, smirking as he crossed his arms.

Underhanded is Niles's specialty. So when Garry goes for his family jewels, he paused for a moment. And a twist?

He lets out a loud, perverse, disgusting groan, tilting his head back.]

Oh god! Yes! Twist a bit harder! Give them a good squeeze!

1/who the hell god damn knows

[artificialrose]

[that is not the reaction he expected]

2/???

[artificialrose]

[THAT IS NOT THE REACTION HE EXPECTED]

3/??

[artificialrose]

[what the fuck niles]

4/....6?

[artificialrose]

[For a second, Garry is so caught off guard by the pure perverse bullshit that's suddenly been smacked in his face that all he can do is stare while his face gets redder because, again, what the fuck.]

5/wait no nevermind

[artificialrose]

[And then he realizes he still has his hand on Niles' junk]

6/listen i'll figure it out

[artificialrose]

[Oh god he still has his hand on Niles' junk]

7/8 pROBABLY...

[artificialrose]

[He'll never be able to be married now]

8/DONE I THINK

[artificialrose]

[Needless to say, Garry jerks his hand away as fast as is humanly possible, holding both his hands up with a look of revulsion so fierce that it's probably just adding to the weird masochism boner that he's had the misfortune to be privy to.]

[What is he even supposed to say to all of this?]

Oh my god.

[...That, apparently.]

[Twisting on his heel, hands still held up, Garry just...]

I'm leaving!

[Yeah, that. He feels as if his soul has been dipped in black tar now, and he has a feeling all the hot water and soap in the world isn't going to make his hand feel clean. He can't even use an unfair move to hurt this guy, just-]

[Ugh.]

terrible 0/10

[deniles]

[Niles just laughs when his hand is removed. That was amusing. He moves to step closer to him.]

Aww, we were just having fun!

[Niles knows he has the upper hand with this man. He's going to know how to get him on edge every single time.]

I'll let you grab something else too. Plenty of other things!

[He laughs loudly, stepping quickly, and loudly, to follow him.]

is that what's in niles' personality section on his app

[artificialrose]

[Fuck. Garry's shoulders jerk up higher at the sound of Niles' voice trailing right behind him.]

I try to get your name out of you, and you just walk away, but now you won't get off me!

no it's ultimate sex god

[deniles]

Well now you've shown interest.

[He laughs, and moves a bit faster.]

Can you really blame me?

sounds fake

[artificialrose]

Yes.

[He can blame Niles all day, every day, for being absolutely horrible. Stopping at where some towels and water bottles are, he glances back at him with his mouth twisted in a frown.]

And that wasn't interest! We both know it!

just like garry

[deniles]

[He laughs loudly as he moves closer to him.]

And yet, you went for my balls. Immediately. Your first through was that.

wow rude he is an honest loser

[artificialrose]

Ugh, don't remind me, I know-!

[Shuddering, he tries to move around the towel table so that there's something between them.]

Normal people scream in pain when that happens, they don't get off on it!

he's also a big fat loser

[deniles]

And what part of me screamed 'normal' to you?

[He moves back around, following him further and further around the table.]

Or are you really that dense?

your face

[artificialrose]

That's why I didn't punch you! You'd obviously have just gotten smug about it!

[Or, well, turned on, apparently. What the fuck is his life, seriously. Hands wiped clean, he feels free to rake his fingers through his hair in frustration even as he keeps moving.]

[THIS IS STUPID]

Who'd think that extends further?

face face face face face face i give face beauty face you can take it's okay watch my body go insane

[deniles]

So. You thought, above all else, to grab my balls?

[He's judging you. He's fully on judging you for that. What a stupid thought process.]

I've heard stupid things here, but yours tops the list. Did you fall on your head?
