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~

I know, right? I don't even think it has a bottom!

[She seems to have gotten over her close call rather quickly and walks back over to pick up the jar's lid. Because probably they should close it.]

Why would they need a jar like this anyway? If you put something in it, how would you get it out again?

[Omi is glad to see she doesn't seem too upset. Pretty resilient girl to be back to normal after nearly who-knows-what.

At the question of why anyone would need such a jar, though, his mind immediately jumps to the most logical possibility he can think of: for getting rid of whatever they don't want anyone else to find. That's a little morbid to tell a young girl, though, so he'll tone it down for her.]


Maybe it's meant to be like a trash can you never have to empty! I think that would be kind of nice, never having to take out the trash.
lilys_poise: (Are you seeing this?)

Oh, wow! I didn't even think of that! That's such a good idea.

[It would make cleaning so easy. Every household should have one.]

Quick! What can we throw away?

[She wants to try it.]

Hmmm... Oh! How about this?

[Omi digs into his pocket and fishes out a gum wrapper he'd been holding onto until he found a trash can (and then forgot was there). He holds it out in offering.]
lilys_poise: (Check out my skills!)

[personal profile] lilys_poise 2016-09-04 04:16 am (UTC)(link)
Thanks!

[She snatches it up excitedly and tosses it in.]

That that, trash!

[Confirmed. The bottomless jar makes a great trashcan.]
oneblackcat: (encouraging smile)

[personal profile] oneblackcat 2016-09-06 01:03 am (UTC)(link)
You certainly showed it!

[Kind of a shame they don't have a line and harness though. He's sort of curious now if there really is anything down in there-- including a bottom that just happens to be much deeper than the one on the outside.]

We should be careful with those jars, okay? There's no telling what's inside. It might be better not to get too curious about them.
