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~

[galactically]

[Sheryl takes great care not to accidentally squish Ion with her fingers, keeping the rest of her hand still until she's ready to pick her up. And when she takes a better look at the tiny person, lifting her hand up at face level, her eyes widen in a mix of disbelief and wonder.]

My, you're like a fairy straight out of a story!

[Only minus the wings, but Ion looks so precious that Sheryl carefully pats the top of her head with a fingertip. Clearly she's never seen tiny people before.]

How did you get trapped in there, anyway? Do the Heavens have their own fairies?

[lighthousekeeper]

[The irony here is that Ion doesn't know yet that her weapon form is actually more like a fairy. Still, she seems to not know what to do with being called one. The little shinki brings her hands to her face and looks off to the side in a bashful manner:]

E-eheh, that kind of makes me happy to be told that~ [...!]

--Ah, wait! That's wrong though! I'm not actually a fairy. I think the box shrunk me because when I opened it there was a big pink poof, [She stretches her arms out of a wide explosive motion.] like 'FUUWAH!'. I couldn't see anything, but I felt like I was falling and woke up on the bottom!

[During her energetic retelling, the number 30 appears above her head and begins counting down.]

[galactically]

[Such an expressive lil' thing that Sheryl can't help but chuckle, though it stops abruptly short with an owlish gaze.]

Wait, so you're actually human? And that chest—

[But then she notices the number above Ion's head! Such a surprise that she stumbles back, quickly using her other hand to cup around Ion without dropping her. Better hold on to Sheryl's fingers!]

What happened?! I saw numbers floating over you just now!

[lighthousekeeper]

Waah?! [What a rickety ride. Ion will definitely be holding on to Sheryl's thumb in the meanwhile. And when she looks up at the numbers when they're mentioned, the little shinki sounds so confused.]

Eh!? I didn't do that! [15 seconds left.] Um, I don't know what's happening, b-but maybe you should put me down.

[So that there isn't more flailing and the possibility of being dropped.]

[galactically]

[Ion holding on to Sheryl's thumb would be a cute sight without the sense of panic coursing through her.]

— Right! Let me just put you somewhere safe... oh!

[Because there's no way Sheryl wants to accidentally kill Ion with her fingers! She does not want to commit a felony... so as soon as she spots a nearby table, she runs towards it, plopping Ion down.]

Here! That should do it.

sorry for the lateness

[lighthousekeeper]

[Just it time for the timer to hit zero, then POOF! A large pink cloud envelops Ion, obscuring her from vision until she's standing on top of the table at her full height.

...Although the sudden change doesn't help with her sense of balance, so the shinki immediately flails out her arms wildly with a yelp. Luckily she doesn't go toppling over the edge, but the table does shake beneath her when she plops down onto her knees.]

A-aaahhh, safe. [BEST FIRST IMPRESSION.] Umm...sorry about that.
