June Training
Who: Everyone
What: Information and Training
When: December 7th
Where: Outside the Meeting Hall, the Far Shore
Summary: Training and informational sessions for newly arrived gods and shinki

Gods and shinki arriving at heaven's meeting hall are, should they allow it, guided to the rear of the Meeting Hall, where a traditionally styled dojo and training ground have been made available for the day. 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.
Once they've had a chance to have things explained, they'll have the chance to relax and enjoy an afternoon party.

Summary: Training and informational sessions for newly arrived gods and shinki

Gods and shinki arriving at heaven's meeting hall are, should they allow it, guided to the rear of the Meeting Hall, where a traditionally styled dojo and training ground have been made available for the day. 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.
Once they've had a chance to have things explained, they'll have the chance to relax and enjoy an afternoon party.

God Training
- Newly arrived gods are escorted into a much nicer room than the warehouse where the last set of new gods got their informational speech. It's a smaller meeting room, with tatami floors and a small dais at the front of the room where the speaker stands. A minor deity is giving the speech, and none of the white-robed shinki enter.
The speaker delivers her welcome speech with the intonation of someone who's practiced it many times. Newly arrived gods are encouraged to discuss the information with each other and ask questions of more experienced gods, as well as instructed to guide their new shinki appropriately. They are allowed to remain in the room as long as they wish, should they want to discuss questions with each other or with more experienced gods who are here to help out.
Shinki Training
- Various shinki in the white-and-gold of Amaterasu's hosuehold are stationed around the dojo, passing out informational pamphlets that have been freshly printed. They will be happy to answer any questions or instruct the newcomers in the use of the borderline. They also accompany their answers, or lessons, with an explanation of what is expected of a shinki and the importance of teamwork with other shinki and with gods. Shinki are encouraged to work together to practice what they've learned and discuss their perspectives.
The dojo is back to its old, fully functional self; a set of motionless straw targets line one wall, to be used by people practicing with any of the weapons spread out on tables or hanging in racks on the walls. Outside, six animated straw targets wait in an area marked off with red ribbons and warning signs. Anyone entering the marked area may find themselves in combat with one (or more) of the magical training dummies. Those who leave the marked area, though, won't be chased.
Physical Training
- Beyond the dojo, a scavenger hunt has been set up throughout the grounds of the Meeting Hall. Brightly colored plastic balls are hidden in shrubbery, tucked into support beams, floating among reeds in the ponds, and lurking in even cleverer hiding places. When a god or shinki gets their hand on one of them, they will burst open to reveal a hidden prize, such as candy, small toys, or accessories. How many can you find?
As well as the scavenger hunt, the white-robed shinki are engaging in more serious physical training and will be happy to let new gods or shinki join them. Sparring matches with practice weapons from the dojo, jogging laps around the hall, sit-ups, push-ups... or, for the younger shinki, competing to see who's the fastest to climb a tree.
Rest and Refreshments
- Midafternoon, once the last of the scavenger-hunt prizes have been found, the white-robed shinki will turn their hands to clearing away the training equipment and laying out a lovely buffet table. Bright lanterns are hung from the trees, and a few shinki even take up a station on one side of the training area and begin playing shamisen, koto, wooden flute and drum. Although their instruments are traditional, their music selection ranges from some very classic Japanese tunes to others that sound surprisingly modern. The koto player can really rock!
Old and new gods and shinki alike are welcome to circulate, socialize with their friends, partake of the buffet food and enjoy the music. There's even room for those who feel inspired to dance, and plenty of privacy offered by the extensive garden for those who would rather retreat with their new partners to have a serious conversation.

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
- Relax at a party
- Have fun~

[He finally say his suspicions. Or more like "is that Hibiki in a weird, god-powered form or a fake". And feeling the squishy, soft plushy texture confirms it. Maybe?]
Unless it's really you, speak up or else.
[This is ridiculous. Threatening a plushie of all things.]
no subject
Because "she" can't! ]
no subject
Until his eyes fall back onto the trail of ripped papers, and follows it off to... somewhere. Should he check it out, or leave it be?
... Why is he even asking himself that. He's not even working for her. With a sigh, he follows the trail.]
no subject
And she will not stop him from following said trail....which will take him to a truly incredible-looking castle, if he goes the whole way. ]
no subject
... Curiosity, the longer he follows this trail and see an impressive looking castle. Impressive enough to awe even him!
After blinking and staring at it for a moment, he goes over to check it out.]
no subject
The door will open at a touch, revealing a gaudy foyer with crystal chandeliers. Off to the side, a hallway opens into what looks like a full amusement park. But that's not where the papers lead.
The papers lead to a more private hallway towards the back. Where there is a faint, but tremendous, crashing sound. ]
no subject
Well, okay, statues of the god at their temple do make sense. But it feels... really, really loud in this case?
He try not to stare as he follow the trail. If he's intruding, he expect someone to come and escort him out. Like any minute now... any minute...
... Well, no one came and he's finding himself heading down a hallway. With a frown, he quickens his pace. Where did that come from, a room?]
no subject
And over which lords the master of the house, propping herself up on her arms, breathing heavily. ]
Again......
[ She snatches up a fountain pen. ] This time! This time, for sure, the script won't star her!!!
[ You appear to have discovered a genius (tm) at work. ]
no subject
But there's that incessant part of him that's curious.
After a moment to think about it, he decides to go for it. And so, there's an undeniable knock knock sound from the door.]
no subject
I'm busy. If it's refreshments, leave them outside.
[ Picking her way through the sea of paper, having to lift her leggy real high to avoid these obstacles, a small cat waddles over to Yaman and myips. Hi! Do you have food? ]
no subject
Sorry, but I didn't bring anything for you.
[Because you're not his god?! Anyway, let's see how long until she notice it's him. Meanwhile, he'll give the cute, small cat the best pets.]
1/hibiki
Hibiki doesn't look over. Still. ] Then, why did you bother--
2/hibiki
not wendy ]
hibiki/3
[ WHY
HOW
Papers scatter to the floor as she starts back in surprise, finally looking. ]
no subject
Still petting the cat, he looks up to see her looking quite surprised. Oh, and there's scattered papers around?]
Yeah, it's me.
[sup]
no subject
Whatever sort of creative endeavor's happening in here....isn't going well. ]
I'm not accepting visitors.
[ The cat begins purring to beat the band. Obviously, the only person here who matters approves of his presence. ]
