i. morning - you can never go home again
[ He thought it would be simple. After all, this was Japan. He knew Japan. He grew up in Japan. Surely the church he grew up in would be there, right? He could easily go home. Talk to his father. Tell him what was going on, report what he had... become.
Of course it wasn't simple at all.
You may spot him in front of a house in some residential area staring in disbelief at it. Thankfully no one's noticed him -- not like anyone can see him anyway. Except others from the Near Shore... with is probably just as well. ]
This... it's not here...
[ Because that wouldn't be creepy otherwise after all. ]

ii. a teacher's duty...? (closed to Takuma)
[ It started out innocently enough. He had been walking around Tokyo with the most frustrated look on his face. First his home was missing and so was a giant town he was certain would be within the city limits of Tokyo.
But as he passes a local school, he can't help but notice certain things.
'Ugh... school's starting again.'
'Yeah. We hardly had enough vacation and now it's back to homework. What a pain.'
'I hate school. I just want to stay out late and hang out with you guys.'
There's a frown on his face. Studying wasn't so bad. If people just applied themselves...
And then he spots it: it's a small puddle of black at first but he sees it following the two students as they head toward the school gate. It's not a demon -- far from it -- even if it looks like one. Certainly no demon he's familiar with. But he knows better to charge in, even if he knows how to battle a demon. His shinki's useless and if it's anything like what he's heard... he needs a shinki to take it down.
So he's just going to hang around the gate for now, making sure to keep an eye on the black puddle. ]

iii. afternoon - the near shore - fish out of water
[ What a day. He's not sure what's worse - a full day of chasing down demons or a single day chasing down a giant ayakashi. In the heat. Alone. With the oddest shinki.
Much to his chagrin, he's heading home. "Home". He doesn't really want to go "home". His home is missing. His temple isn't home.
Sadly, the fish seem to sense his misery. Maybe it was their way of trying to cheer him up but he does get splashed as he crosses a bridge. ]
Hey!
[ He's sort of soaked as he turns, trying to look for whoever was responsible. But he sees nothing but fish. Unfortunately, while he's distracted, the koi on the other side of the bridge decide to gang up on him. ]
Who's splashing water?!
[ The poor guy is now being double teamed by fish. Please help. He needs a towel. ]

iv. late afternoon - the near shore - portable gas range part deux
[ Maybe you've noticed someone new in the neighborhood. After all, it's a temple that's hard to miss. It's a giant cathedral. Gothic. Imposing. And very very very black. Unlike most churches, it's made of black metal. Spikes, gargoyles, it's perfectly imposing if you aren't used to... cathedrals.
Another thing about it is that it has an eerie blue glow about it.
There are small blue fireballs floating in the church grounds, the candles inside are also lit with blue fire. It's just blue fire everywhere even if it isn't warm at all. Maybe it's the blue glow that's called you over to start.
Either way, the owner's home and the minute he steps into his own grounds, two points of blue fire appear like horns near his temples. Though he doesn't seem all that pleased about it. He's already had a hell of a day.
No pun intended. ]
