just fishin' [open]
Who: Caster and you
When: September 3rd - 6th
Where: Rivers, lakes and ponds of the Far Shore
What: fishing, troubles, also dogs
[ Do you remember those fishes splashing people and laughing? Caster does, and as he finally finished crafting his weapon - a grand, hand-made fishing rod. Then proceed to get a can of bait and a can of beer for good measure, and there he goes to find the revenge. ]
1. I luv my fishes cuz they are delicious - 3rd to 5th September
[ When he's fishing in the river near his temple, two big white dogs accompany him. One is sleeping and providing a fluffy back-rest to lean on. The other is a bit too hyper, chasing some insects or mice and greeting anyone approaching too close with a happy bark, and a tail wag.
Though he is alone when fishing not near his property but at various ponds, lakes, and rivers found on the Far Shore - did he just trespass at your place? oops!
Incidentally, you might come at him carefully unhooking a koi and... talking to it, apparently ]
Huh, now you're just a normal fish? Who's laughing now?!
[ The fish flops in his grip terrified. It's a pitiful sight, and it's not like he's going to get a reply out of it ]
Eh, you're too small for even get a bite.
[ And surprisingly gently he lets it back to the water. With an abundance of food, any fishing is going to be catch-and-release. ]
That will teach you a lesson! [ Yeah, go, tell those fishes where is their place... yeah ]
2. It's kappastic! - 6th September
[ Several days and several terrified kois later, he's really having a good day. Sitting on a bridge in silence. He just knows it. This will be the day of that epic catch, the majestic fishing experience! It's possibly the most uninteresting hobby under the sun, but if he could spend time on it regularly, he would.
Fresh air, picturesque landscapes of the Heavens, and nice warm weather, what to want more? Suddenly there's bite on the line - just like he expected! - and... the rod gets fully yanked out of his hands. ]
Wooa--!!
[ Certainly, not as expected. There's no way of saving it, the rod disappears far into the water being pulled by a massive catch-- What would be that massive catch turns to be something else. A kappa surfaces and holds the fishing rod for a few tense seconds. It maintains the eye contact with the fisher and slowly, so very slowly... breaks the rod piece by piece. ]
...oh, now it's personal..! [ Caster obviously takes it as an offense. He drops his cape - bracers and generally all unnecessary stuff that might limit his movement and leaps into the lake from the bridge, possibly water splashing an innocent bystander. The kappa is going to pay
That might not be the best idea ]
3. Peace offering - 6th September
[ Later and somewhere else most likely the strangest sight might be seen. Few lake brawls later, both Caster and the kappa seem to no longer be set on killing each other. The bruises and scratches are more visible on Caster, but anyone familiar with kappas - is there anyone like that there? - might notice that his opponent is in similarly poor shape.
The peace offering for the destroyed fishing rod is pretty simple - it's a pack of cigarettes. All is forgiven, they say - or rather, wave - their goodbyes, and Caster sits on a rock to enjoy what is going to be his first smoke in the Far Shore. Only to fail in lighting the cig up with small ansuz rune.
Obviously, it's sogging wet, kappas live underwater. ]
You cheating bastard!! [ He yells in the kappa direction, who is almost in the middle of the lake. Kappa just cackles, shows an obscene gesture and dives underwater. ]
Ugh, think these will work after drying?
4. Obligatory wildcard, [ Have something else in mind? Leave a comment and I'll write you a starter! Also feel free to play with and modify any of the above. ]

Polite. [ Caster repeats flatly with an annoyed grimace. ] They must have a different definition of that word. The bastard stole and broke my fishing rod! How is that polite!
[ An argument could be made, that kappa was only protecting their own natural habitat - maybe the fishes belonged to him? like pets, or flock of chickens? -, but Caster conveniently ignores that route of thinking.
That fishing rod was hand-made, he's in every right of avenging it. ]
no subject
You'd have to ask the Kappa, and you seemed more interested in fighting it than in talking to it.
no subject
Yeah, I don't usually assume things like these can speak. And if they can, it's more dangerous to listen to them. [ Never trust a fairy. ]
Besides what I was supposed to say? "Excuse me, gentleman, why doth thou break my precious equipment?" [ Okay, he's overplaying it enough that is shows he got a sense of humor about this disaster. ]
no subject
Nah, I understand. I'm just glad it didn't end up more seriously injuring you. Or me.
no subject
[ That might have been a pretty big thing, yeah. But ultimately also it's the advantage that could get mitigated by many ways- or you know, he just like being confident. ]
You always worry so much?
no subject
I prefer being cautious, but I'll do what I have to. Just because I'd like to know what's going on beforehand doesn't mean I won't jump in to help if it's needed.
[So less 'worry' and more being cautious. Yep.]
no subject
You're a good guy. Mai is lucky to have you. [ As a shinki, as a friend, or whatever you have there going ]
no subject
I feel pretty lucky to have her as my Goddess. We work well together and seem to think alike, or at least in complimentary ways when we need to. She also seems familiar with more things than I am. Which is good, because I'm still trying to figure out just what I can do.
[Yes Caster, Trunks is fond of his Goddess. So far just as a friend/partner though.]
no subject
That's good to hear! Keep her safe or I'll have to kick your ass. [ It's said in jest, and have 1x playful punch to a shoulder, Trunks. ]
no subject
You can try. Besides, it is my role, in some ways, as her shinki.
[Protective friend is protective. Also has professional pride.]
But no, Mai is strong and can also take care of herself. I'm there to help support and back her up.
no subject
Never doubted that- [ She is strong, that's the big part of her charm ]
Well, suffice to say I'm counting on ya.
no subject
I'm pretty sure she's counting on me too.
[Amusement and good humor back.]
I kind of feel sorry for anyone who makes her mad. Also for anyone who underestimates Goten. Or picks on Nanako.
[He can't be the only one who liked the younger goddess and felt protective of her like a sibling, even besides her own shinki.]
