007 | Clean Up Your Act

[godsoffortune]

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~

[Souji has, in a sense, only know Hijikata for a couple of hours as well, and he can already tell that he needs to smile more, brood less, and relax every once in a while. He thinks all of this with fondness, of course, but even so.

Grinning, he nods.]

I was hoping you'd understand.

Ah, and it's of course good to know that he'll have protectors among the other Gods as well, Sanae-sama. That will make my job a lot easier, right?

[miraculo]

Oh yes--- they say that shinki and their gods must work together... but there's no reason we can't all work together as one big team to protect everyone!

[ A small head tilt at the honorific. Should she say that it isn't necessary? Or... or maybe it is at this point, because she's now a ~proper~ god? Either way, her surprised expression may give it away that she's unsued to being addressed so respectfully. ] S...speaking of. I should get back to helping clean the other temples.

[spes_phthisica]

Like comrades.

[The words leave his lips effortlessly, as if it's the most natural thing in the world, and somehow putting it like that feels right. Like home.

Then he glances down at the feeding ducklings by her feet, and laughs a bit sheepishly.]

I should probably do something about them. Being out here in the corridor isn't safe for them. [A small bow.] Thank you for talking to me.

[miraculo]

[ She returns the bow. ] No, no, thank you. [ Srsly without him she would never have encountered rainbow ducks!

Straightening up, she turns to leave. ] Take good care of those ducklings in the meantime, alright?

[spes_phthisica]

I will, I promise.

[In fact, he'll decide later to adopt them all to Hijikata's temple, so she'll be able to meet them again.

But for now he waves her off with a bright smile, before starting to gently nudge the ducklings back toward the door.]
