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~

This meeting with Sanae only gets weirder and weirder. That is, it was weird enough to be in this place to begin with, so he shouldn't be judging the weirdness of someone's personal history and being. But someone claiming to have been a god before being brought to a place to be a god was a little strange, right?

He's thinking himself into circles here.

"What exactly count as miracles?" he asked, deciding to think about that instead. "Back home it always seemed people called anything from being cured of cancer to a picture of some woman burned into toast a miracle."

"Hmmm.... I suppose you're right. Lots of things can be taken as 'miracles'," she concedes with a breath. Honestly, it's not as if she (or canon) has a definitive answer for it, either. "But I've been classifying them into two types: the improbable and the impossible. If there's something that has a slim chance of happening on its own, but it works-- like scoring an 100% on a test that you hardly studied for-- that's improbable. Something impossible would be like... making it rain rice and fruit from the sky!" Which she can do.

"I'm not so sure if seeing a face in a toast really is a miracle, but if people believe that it is... I guess it is so!" Nodnod.

So long as she has people that believe in miracles, she's okay with that. She wouldn't exist if people didn't believe in her.

"Not sure I agree with that..." A face on a toast couldn't be a miracle. Unless it came with an image caption or word balloon on it or something. "But I guess if I need a miracle I'll give you a call."

Sanae nods to him. That's what she likes to hear, and she appreciates it when others do want her help. Because that means they trust her enough for her help.

"I promise you won't be sorry for asking for one." He should ask for milkshakes to rain from the sky or something. But at last, Sanae turns. "...I should get back to cleaning now, though. It was nice meeting you."

Milkshakes from the sky sound like that was a wish more to benefit her than him . . .

"Ah, sure. I probably should, too, soon," he said, sounding like he wasn't too eager to and might linger a little longer. See if he can beat that score from before. "Good to meet you, too," he nodded at her like a very informal bow.
