Susano'o Trashes Heaven

Who: Sho Minamimoto vs. Everyone!
What: Susano'o decides to take on Heaven. Chaos results.
When: All day April 19
Where: All around the Heavens
Summary: In a bid to take over Heaven, Sho has unleashed an apocalyptic number of taboo ayakashi the biggest Heaven-wrecking godmode weapon this side of the Far Shore. It doesn't end well. Get ready for spring cleaning 2.0.
Warnings: Math, strong language, casual disembowelment and other violence, NPC death, potential for character death.

Susano'o, Selfies, and the Subjugation of Heaven


As he'd revealed in his 3 AM BBS post, Sho has a variety of fascinating ayakashi that he wants to share with the world. By noon, several large heaps located in various parts of Heaven have caught on fire and there is a massive outpouring of taboo ayakashi.

Concentrated primarily near the Meeting Hall and Susano'o's junk heap of a temple, these ayakashi attack shinki and gods on sight. They're vicious, powerful, and the only way to defeat them is the power of teamwork.

At 2 PM, Joshua will be providing some helpful tips. Meanwhile, Sho will be teleport-spamming throughout Heaven. Feel free to text him, but he'll stop answering right around the time Bishamon and Hajime start to catch up to him. (Picowatt will be helping out from there on!)

Save Heaven 2K16? (Details here!)

Boss Fight: Seiten Taisei and the Neoclassical Drakes


It's the zero hour, exactly 43,200 seconds since he posted his warning to the BBS when Sho decides to change the game. Heaven has rallied against him, gods and shinki alike, and it's time to pull out the big guns.

In the air above the Meeting Hall, he unleashes thirteen Neoclassical Drakes before releasing Seiten Taisei.

And, suddenly, it's entrails everywhere.

??:??:??
Post-Battle Spring Cleaning


Well, the day is saved, but there's a metric ton left to do. The mass slaughter left a bit of a bloody mess, and Susano'o has shrines on the Near Shore covered in graffiti that can turn any stray ayakashi into the taboo sort. Weird and corrupt magics all over the place, some of which are on fire. His junkyard temple is burning merrily, and there are still some stray taboo ayakashi to put down.

Anyone ready for Spring Cleaning 2.0? Grab a mop.

[Fighting endless hordes of monsters is something Barry's done before, even if he can't remember it, so this actually comes fairly naturally to him. Muscle memory and all that. As long as Sheryl's still fighting, he'll keep it up on his end too.]

Awright, let's make a break for it!
galactically: (of sheer will)

[personal profile] galactically 2016-09-13 08:41 pm (UTC)(link)
[As soon as Sheryl sees the ayakashi's bodies stiffen up, she swings the axe in their direction, creating a wall of ice separating herself and those critters. Some of them may or may not be turning into icicles right now. This won't automatically kill them, but at least they'll be frozen in place for the time being as she buys more time to escape.]

There! I'll leave that for the rest. Now let's get out of here!

[Clutching Barry's form close to her chest, she sprints out of there, heavy pants out of herself with some sweat on her forehead.]
very_goodman: (depressed)

[personal profile] very_goodman 2016-09-13 09:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Don't gotta tell me twice!

[Not that he has a choice, considering he's the one being carried around.]

Looks like we made it. How ya holdin' up?
galactically: (my feelings do not rest)

[personal profile] galactically 2016-09-15 10:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Thank goodness! I hate it when monsters chase me around.

[She spots a wall from a random building, then leans on it to take a few deep breaths. Resting her free hand on her chest, she spares her arms a worried glance. Blights... they are small, but noticeable.]

I'll be alright.

[In firm assurance despite how much of a mess she is.]
very_goodman: (arms folded)

[personal profile] very_goodman 2016-09-15 10:34 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't think anybody likes it when that happens.

[Barry, for his part, sits there. Since he's still an axe and all.]

We sure kicked some ass out there, though.
galactically: (meh...)

[personal profile] galactically 2016-09-15 10:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Heeh... we make a very acceptable team.

[Sheryl may look more or less worn out, but at least she obtained a capable shinki out of this. There's a pause before she speaks.]

Thank you.
very_goodman: (grin)

[personal profile] very_goodman 2016-09-15 10:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Hey, no problem! I'm just glad you're okay.

[...]

But, uh... can ya call me back now?
galactically: (holier than thou)

[personal profile] galactically 2016-09-15 11:05 pm (UTC)(link)
[Now that they're safe from ayakashi...]

Barry!

[... it's time to transform back into normal. She calls his name, loud and proud as she extends the axe.]
very_goodman: (thoughtful)

[personal profile] very_goodman 2016-09-15 11:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Whew... thanks.

[He lets out a deep breath as he transforms back. Reaching briefly behind himself to push in against his lower back, there's a brief crack as the joint pops.]

That was one hell of a fight.
galactically: (how fantastic to be with you)

[personal profile] galactically 2016-09-16 01:11 am (UTC)(link)
[Something about Barry reminds Sheryl of one of the soldiers from SMS, for a reason that she hasn't figured out yet. The hotheaded, gung-ho attitude might have something to do with it, she thinks.

Now with both of her hands free, she takes out a bottle of water from her purse, unscrews the cap, and pours some of the liquid on her arms. A slow sigh of relief comes out of her.]


It sure was. It's not everyday that I get to fight like this... usually I just rely on my songs for this kind of thing, that's it.
very_goodman: (side glance)

[Wait'll she gets to experience the other half of his personality. The embarrassing otaku weeb half that loves magical girl shows.]

Don't ya need a shinki to finish 'em off for good, though? It's dangerous out here by yourself.
galactically: (fly forth my love)

[personal profile] galactically 2016-09-17 01:30 am (UTC)(link)
My power isn't just for show.

[She presses two fingers to her throat, feeling the gentle vibrations against her fingertips as she closes her eyes.]

I can help my shinki this way while they deliver the last blow. [And with a small, playful smile:] Heeeh, did I worry you?

It's a hell of a power, that's for sure.

[Barry grins back at her.]

'Course ya did. I couldn't just let you fight those things on your own.
galactically: (so fly)

[personal profile] galactically 2016-09-18 02:15 am (UTC)(link)
[If only Barry could see Sheryl "talk" to giant alien bugs from outer space, she muses to herself. A small chuckle slips out.]

You're an okay man to me. As I once said in my blog, "Frivilous men are burdens, but sincere men are treasures."
very_goodman: (belly laugh)

[personal profile] very_goodman 2016-09-18 12:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Ha ha! Glad I meet with your approval!

[He seems entirely impressed with her.]
