007 | Clean Up Your Act

Who: Everyone!
What: Spring cleaning
When: All day April 15
Where: All around the Heavens
Summary: The Heavens don't like things being cluttered, so it's time to clean up a little bit.







Main Hall

While the main hall of the Heavens seems spotlessly clean at all times, that's not the case at all. In fact, it's been at least a decade since the last time they actually cleaned everything out properly. There are a lot of hidden closets and back rooms that have layers of dust and dozens of boxes filled with nothing but junk. Who knows, though! You might find something interesting and useful in there along with all the garbage.

Suprises

Unfortunately, some of the older temples on the Far Shore seem to have some interesting surprises tucked away, ranging from cursed artifacts all the way to magical creatures locked up in long-forgotten rooms. You are free to be creative with this as a way to get your characters into trouble while cleaning.

Complimentary Dinner

After all of your hard work, you deserve to have some tasty food and refreshing beverages. So the Heavens have provided that for you, so that you can wind down after a long day. It's not as fancy as the banquets they often put on, but there is a nice array of food and drinks for everyone to enjoy.

Counselling

As usual, there is a white-robed shinki bearing the gold chrysanthemum of Amaterasu sitting at a table in the Main Hall. There is a small sign that denotes her as the counselling shinki. Anyone is welcome to approach her, and she will smile serenely at anyone passing by as well.



In Summary:
  • Clean up your home
  • Help clean others' homes
  • Get the main hall clean too!
  • Hope no hidden magic jumps out
  • Seek counselling if you need it
  • Enjoy your complimentary dinner
  • Have fun~

[If All Might's career has lasted like 20 odd years and he's never killed anybody, Deku's sure he can manage the same. Besides, taking a life crosses into villain territory, and he's not doing that.]

You do have a choice, and I chose not to take a life.

I don't care how strong you are, sometimes it's gonna be kill or be killed!

[Axel waves a hand, his casual air flashing suddenly over into genuine worry, and a growing anger. Sometimes it is kill or be killed. Sometimes it's worse than that: it's kill or watch someone else die. Sometimes...

He doesn't know how he knows it, but he's passionately sure of himself. He leans forward with a scowl on his face.]


So what, are you going to let yourself get killed because it's better than killing whoever you're up against? Really?

[He stands up straight to his full 5'5", looking Axel in the eye.]

I won't let myself be killed, but I won't kill anybody else either.

[This is something that he will not budge on.]

[Axel stares down at him from half a foot taller, looking more dubious than anything else. Sure, it sounds like a really nice idea. Never kill anybody! Protect everyone.

It'd be great if the world worked like that.

Deku's enough of a kid that Axel doesn't have to force the bitter truth on him yet, though. He'll figure it out in time. Happens to everybody.]


Yeah, good luck with that.

[personal profile] fullcowl 2016-08-18 06:41 pm (UTC)(link)
[Deku is absolutely a kid, but he's also a kid who had to deal with certain death right in his face. He wouldn't say something so confidently if he wasn't entirely sure of himself.

They got out of the USJ more or less fine because they worked as a team. He got out of Stain more or less fine because Todoroki and Iida were there. Sometimes it's less about what you can do, and more about what the group can do.]


It's not about luck, but thank you.

If you think it's not about luck, you've never been in a tight enough spot.

[Axel's expression goes flat and unamused for a moment. Then, he shrugs, and glances away.]

But what do I know? I can't remember anything.

[He pauses, looking uncomfortable as he considers it. Axel... he doesn't know how he died, exactly, but if he feels that strongly...]

You're probably right.
doestheickyjobs: sheepish expression (sidelong)

[personal profile] doestheickyjobs 2016-08-19 04:14 am (UTC)(link)
Anyway, it's no big deal.

[Don't mind Axel looking away in the opposite direction with an identically uncomfortable expression.

Sure, he's fine with arguing, but when Deku gives in he starts to feel all weird about it, like maybe he should've just let the kid go on being deluded or something.]


... I just don't want you doing anything dumb. How's it gonna look if my god gets himself killed like that?
fullcowl: (040)

[personal profile] fullcowl 2016-08-19 04:34 am (UTC)(link)
[Well at least if they're uncomfortable, they're uncomfortable together. Was this maybe part of how Axel died? He's pretty sure only his first got would know that for sure.]

I won't be reckless.

[And that's about the best he can promise. Saving a life will always take priority for him, but he'll make sure he's considered all his options first.]

Besides, I have you and Kido to rely on.
doestheickyjobs: looking down and away, insincere (so sad! really)

[personal profile] doestheickyjobs 2016-08-20 05:08 am (UTC)(link)
Hey, now, that's something you can promise.

And we'll be around! [Axel flashes Deku a quick grin, glad they're past the whole... weird conversation. Yeah. That's easier to talk about. Where were they, anyway? Before the bit about self-sacrifice....

He glances back around at the room full of weapons.]


It could be pretty cool sparring with some of this stuff, too.
fullcowl: (001)

[personal profile] fullcowl 2016-08-21 07:06 am (UTC)(link)
You think so...?

I guess it wouldn't be a bad idea to get a feel for some of them. Weapon forms come in all kinds.

[Like Kido's iPod, and Axel's chain with a blade. Maybe he'd be more effective with other shinki that way?]
doestheickyjobs: looking down and away, insincere (so sad! really)

[personal profile] doestheickyjobs 2016-08-21 08:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Exactly! I bet there's a lot of gods out there who don't know how to use their shinki's weapon forms that well.

They could use a chance to practice.

[Axel waves a hand around the room. See! That's a nice, useful, non-murderous purpose for the armory.]
fullcowl: (001)

[personal profile] fullcowl 2016-08-21 11:02 pm (UTC)(link)
There's a pretty wide range in here.

I'll ask about it after we're done cleaning.
doestheickyjobs: sidelong smiling glance (long ago and far away)

[personal profile] doestheickyjobs 2016-08-22 05:25 am (UTC)(link)
Good thought! [Axel grins, and waves a hand casually back towards the door.]

... Anyway, I ought to get back to the main hall. Looked like they needed a lot of help cleaning up around there. Good luck over here, Deku! Let me know if you need a hand with anything else, huh?
fullcowl: (3)

[personal profile] fullcowl 2016-08-22 03:05 pm (UTC)(link)
[Is he... avoiding cleaning?]

Huh? Oh. Alright? See you around...?
doestheickyjobs: one-handed shrug, talking (Default)

[personal profile] doestheickyjobs 2016-08-22 05:18 pm (UTC)(link)
[He is totally avoiding cleaning. He's gonna just swan right out! He doesn't want to have to dust ten million cool weapons instead of playing with them.

...But hey, if you're looking for a home for some of your cool weapons later, Deku, feel free....]


See you!
