It does. Wouldn't be a great god of business if he was completely inflexible. But with regards to his domains and the Near Shore, it's more Ebisu loves humans at his core. He wants only the best for them.

[Even if that means naming and placing masks on ayakashi to control them.]

He was also a god abandoned by his parents when they considered him useless, so he's pretty caring when it comes to Heaven's undesirables.

Frankly, Heaven would be better off with someone like him in charge.

[No one else around knows sign language so she's not worried about someone seeing her heretical words. It's not a training session on old god territory either.]
