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~

Try picking them up? I've done that pretty often today...

[And not once had he heard them talk. Perhaps they just didn't have anything to say to him, but they seem rather eager for Zoro's attention]

[wadoichimonji]

[Zoro frowns. The little one on his shoulder kept calling him 'handsome' and purring against his skin.]

That's weird. They only talked to me?

[He bends and picks up another cat, who stares at him and says 'You should have asked for permission first.' but Zoro ignores him.]

Here, hold this guy.

[ex_adept179]

Are you sure? That one doesn't seem to want to be held...

[Or at least wanted permission first. A cat wanting permission asked is certainly different.

Then again cats talking at all is different all on its own]

[wadoichimonji]

[Zoro is about to say something when the cat meows, only to say 'now the pretty boy doesn't want to hold me? That's insulting!' Zoro chuckles, presenting the cat to Slaine.]

I think it changed its mind.

[He decides to hand the cat to Slaine whether the boy wants it or not, because then he's staring at the cats and talking to them.]

Can you guys just... Go away? We have to clean.

[ex_adept179]

[Slaine looks to the left, then to the right. He doesn't know what 'pretty boy' refers to, but it doesn't for a moment occur to him that he might be the one described.

In either case, he handles the cat he's given carefully, as he would with Lily]

I already finished with this temple, actually...

[wadoichimonji]

So they won't let you leave?

[Zoro nods, watching the cat intently.

Such soft hands! Much better than this oaf!]

Oh! See? It likes you!

[ex_adept179]

Thus far that's been the ca-

[He's cut off by the comment about his hands]

...Soft?

[Should a man actually want to have soft hands?]

[wadoichimonji]

[Zoro laughs, seeing Slaine's reaction to the cat's words.]

So soft and comfortable, please mister pet me!

My hands are all calloused and scarred, so I'm guessing yours are softer in general.

[ex_adept179]

Calluses don't strike me as a bad thing...

[Slaine remains perplexed, though he cautiously pets the cat all the same, supporting it against his shoulder]

[wadoichimonji]

Probably aren't, the cat just doesn't like my hands.

[He picks up another cat, watching it move its tails, and purring softly. He places it in his arm and pets its softly.]

I kinda enjoy this.

[ex_adept179]

So you're an animal fan?

[He'd seemed so insistent on getting away from the flock of cats before...but now he really does seem content]

[wadoichimonji]

... Not really.

[He pets the cat a bit more. Way softer than normal ones for sure.]

Animals seem to like me, no matter where I go.

[ex_adept179]

I suppose, more accurately...animals are a fan of you.

[Go figure, a towering man who might seem imposing attracts flocks of fluffy critters]

[wadoichimonji]

[fluffy or not, he attracts even the scariest of animals.

He clicks his tongue, looking at the many cats as he pets the one on him.]

Yeah... It's annoying when there's as many as these, can't really move around too much.
