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~

[You know, Hijikata is just going to have to take a second to stand right where he is and give Sora an incredulous look about that joke. Really?]


...I'm fine, yes.

[What's a bump on the head to a god?]

What did you do?

[Dumb jokes aside…………]

Oh just a spell. Called magnet.

[He gestures to his keyblade where the sandals are stuck and struggling and he waves the blade to demonstrate the stuck-ness.]

What should we do with these guys? Magnet won't last long!

[A spell. Right.]

[Because magic is a thing now.]

[Gods, he has a headache from just about every part of this day.]


I don't suppose they seem like much of a threat, do they?

[You’re looking a little headache-y there, Hijikata. Need a cure spell too?]

Well I guess not. They aren’t an ayakashi though, are they? I don’t see any weird eyeballs and they’re not making any weird noises.

[Honestly, Sora had no idea what these things were. But the spell wears off quickly and Sora grabs both by the straps and holds them tightly. Wouldn’t want them to get away again.]
koukai_kirai: (So what's the use of going home)

[personal profile] koukai_kirai 2016-08-26 11:02 am (UTC)(link)
[He looks headachey like 90% of the time. He's used to it.]

I haven't seen an ayakashi yet. But if they're not, is there any reason not to let them be?

Oh! You haven't? You must be a new god around here then! I'm Sora. It's great to meet you!

[He twirls the sandles around on his fingers. They don't seem to like that.]

What should we do with these guys then? Just chuck them over a fence?
koukai_kirai: (And there's no need to endure anymore)

[personal profile] koukai_kirai 2016-08-26 06:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Sora?

[Must be his old name -- he's never heard of a god with that name, at least.]

Hijikata. I just arrived this morning.

[Which seems to be the case for a few people. Do they come in waves, or are there new arrivals all the time? Something to think about later on.]

If they're alive like that, they must have been around for a hundred years. If that's the case, and this is their home, they'll probably just come back even if you toss them out. Might as well just let them go and do what they like.

[Look, he's not one for the old superstitions in particular, but he's just got to sort of... roll with it, for today.]

[Sora has a bad habit of forgetting to introduce himself with his god name still.]

Great! If you need any help around here or have questions, feel free to ask!

[Sora then nods and puts the sandals carefully back on the floor, keeping his hands on them gently for a moment before letting go. They seem still for now?]

Well, of you go little soldiers.

[Hijikata watches the shoes, which stand still as if hoping the big creatures that have been tormenting them will forget they're there for a few moments, then hop back off into the back of the shed.]

You've been here a while, then?

[Sora gives the little things a goodbye wave. See you again, friends!]

Umm, about two months?

[Sora laughs and shrugs. That didn’t seem like very long but it sure did seem like a long time to him.]

Everything’s been kind a blur, I guess. Had to learn everything pretty quickly.

I hope it isn't all quite as disorienting as the first day.

[He's not sure how much of that his fragile patience could take.]

[personal profile] oathkeeper 2016-09-02 07:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Umm, it's about the same!

[SORRY HIJIKATA Hope you like headaches. It's all downhill from here.

Sora just takes everything in stride, if he understands what's going on or not.]


You'll be okay though, I got your back if anything goes wrong! Ayakashi smashing or whatever!

Comforting.

[So much for a peaceful afterlife.]

That's... kind of you.

[personal profile] oathkeeper 2016-09-05 03:42 am (UTC)(link)
No worries! You seem like a good guy, Hijikata.

[Sora gives him a bright smile and nods. He likes helping, and he likes Hijikata, so it was a no-brainer.]
koukai_kirai: (Eat plastic surgery)

[personal profile] koukai_kirai 2016-09-06 05:23 pm (UTC)(link)
[As nice a kid as Sora seems, he doesn't look like he really gets cynical, world-weary sarcasm. Hijikata's pretty sure there's a bit of a correlation there, honestly.]

[Then again, he's also pretty sure that he's tended to rather like the people he's observed that correlation in, when all is said and done, so he's probably just griping to himself for the sake of it again.]


I suppose I should return the offer. If you ever need anything, my shrine is in the hills overlooking the sea, over that way.

[He points in the appropriate direction.]

Overlooking the sea?

[Sora follows Hijikata’s point and ganders that way. There’s a very excited grin on his face all of a sudden.]

Looks like we’re neighbors, I’m right down there on the beach! I can come over for a cup of sugar and everything!

[He’s kind of hyped about this, there weren’t many other temples around his beachfront temple.]

I guess I’ll be seeing you around!
