002 | Tokyo In Trouble
Who: Everyone!
What: Surprise! There's a disaster on the Near Shore.
When: Late at night (February 24, 2016) into mid-afternoon (February 25, 2016)
Where: The Meeting Hall of the Heavens AND various places around Tokyo
Summary: A nice little greeting for the new guests and an unpleasant surprise for the older ones~
A sudden, loud blast of noise persists throughout the entirety of the Heavens. It sounds much like a war horn of ancient times being played at a decibel that is meant to shake the very core of every being within its range. No matter how much you might try to block out the noise, it remains ringing in your ears deafeningly, and somehow you find yourself compelled towards the Meeting Hall - the place where you were first introduced to the Heavens and what you have gotten wrapped up in.
Anyone checking their phones will notice a large, bright red alert flashing at them - 'EMERGENCY! REPORT IMMEDIATELY!' It seems that the Heavens have taken to using modern technology for their messages as well.
Once you have reached the Meeting Hall, you will find that every wall has turned into a sort of television screen, displaying various streets and buildings in Tokyo, everyone one literally crawling with ayakashi both big and small. A voice that you recognize as Amaterasu's - though you would never be able to describe it properly - rings throughout the halls.
"We need your help, brave gods, loyal shinki. A rift the likes of which we have never dealt with has opened on the Near Shore. We must end the ayakashi who are harming our dear followers. Please come to our aid in this time of need."
Meeting Hall
The once garishly decorated Meeting Hall looks very much like the base of operations for an army at war. There are gods gearing up with shinki and man-made gear as well and plenty of gods and shinki saying prayers before they head out to battle. Everything you might need to make yourself feel safe during a fight has been provided, including every type of weaponry. But, of course, only shinki wielded by a god can actually destroy an ayakashi.
Counselling
In the main hallway, there is an innocuous door with a small, nicely written sign that reads "Gentle Counselling". Inside the door is a small room with a few sweetly smiling shinki inside who are willing to listen to your problems and answer any questions you might have. They are also here to help out any gods that are having a hard time dealing with knowing about how their shinki died and any shinki that is having trouble coming to terms with the fact that they are dead.
February 24
The rift that has opened is so vast that there is literally nowhere in Tokyo that you can go without encountering a rampaging group of ayakashi. Everything is utter chaos and there are creatures everywhere for you to fight. Let's just hope that you can get out of this dangerous battlefront mostly unscathed.
February 25
Towards the middle of the day, it will seem that the ayakashi are becoming fewer and further between. Things seem to be calming down a lot, though they are nowhere near normal yet, especially since the rift is taking longer to close than the Heavens would like. Fortunately, no new ayakashi have escaped into the Near Shore from the rift since this morning, due to a barrier that has been placed around it. Still, the ayakashi seem to be really hell-bent on getting away from you all now rather than fighting...

In Summary:
- There are a ton of ayakashi on the Near Shore that need to be destroyed.
- The newbies are getting one hell of a welcome as a result.
- Seek counselling if you need it!
- Go kick some evil ass.
- Comment to the first thread to get a randomly generated number of ayakashi to face.
- Mods will gladly play out any ayakashi interactions where requested.
- Try not to get killed~
no subject
He'll nod back and take a step back as his master finally catches up to them. This time, the pistol has been put away and she now has a giant sword resting on her shoulders as she approaches. ]
Good save, Kuraha.
[ She'll turn her attention to Gin now, evidently less threatening (?) than earlier. ]
Are you alright?
no subject
Luckily, Gintoki is much more used to people hauling around swords and other dangerous weapons, so as long as it isn't pointed at him, he's better. He'll, uh, just hold onto his wooden stick here. Yeah, that's cool. He's looking cool, right?]
I, you know, there was, I mean, I could've taken that one, so like, I didn't need that. [sorry lion-san, he didn't mean it. It's just that he's completely out of his element right now, fighting a bunch of things he can't kill yet.]
Thanks, I guess, though. [trying so hard to be nonchalant. It didn't help that she was beautiful. But he knew better; she's bound to be a pretty scary woman with a weapon like that, right?]
I-I can teleport now so like, I'm fine.
[And with that he'll blink out of existence. Only to--
Reappear. In the exact same place. He. . . totally meant to do that. Yeah. Smooth Change the subject, change the subject. . . .]
Who are you, anyway?
no subject
But hey, at least he's being a nice little diversion from the entire afternoon of kicking ass and taking names. ]
Bishamon.
[ That... should be enough of an introduction. She's still trying to make sense of this guy after all. But hey, she'll regain her composure after a half second. That just sort of... caught her off guard in its ridiculousness. ]
And you are?
no subject
Sakata Gintoki.
[He'll recognize that name, being Japanese himself, so he's not too surprised now at the large sword, the lion. Seems like this Bishamon actually was a lucky god. Goddess? ]
. . . you sure don't like look your statues, Bishamonten-san. I guess it's good you came along, anyhow.
[He'll rub at the back of his neck some . . . ]
I think I'll just leave the rest of those things to the pros.
no subject
[ Once upon a time, her armor made her look more like a man. Sadly, those times were the statue building times.. but she doesn't really need to explain that right now.
Maybe a different time and if he asks. ]
But onto more important matters. Will you be alright? We can take you back to Takamagahara if need be.
no subject
Is that what they normally do.
[He'll tap his stick on his shoulder while he talks to her, expectant. She probably will notice the up and down look he gives her. ]
So, like. . . is this the kind of thing the gods are wearing these days? I'm not really into that. . .[He'll scratch his cheek absently.]
I mean, I guess I could be but. . . you know, that's not really gonna work when you've got weapons to swing around? Is this an online game or something?
no subject
Yes... it usually is. If you don't have a shinki yet, I'm certain an opportunity will present itself for you to find one eventually.
[ Because a god without a shinki won't be able to protect themselves properly.
There's a pause though at the online game thing where she actually looks slightly confuzzled before managing the smallest chuckle and a murmured 'Tsuguha, that isn't polite'. ]
If you mean what I'm wearing... this is the form one of my shinki takes. I've found it easier to move around with, to be quite honest. You probably won't be able to find anything quite like her as each shinki's form is unique so... I wouldn't worry so much.
what is punctuation
Having a shinki sounds like a pain, you know. Who wants to babysit someone, even if they are a weapon or clothes? This whole picture is wrong.
punctuating is overrated
I wouldn't call it babysitting. Once they've gotten used to it, they're more than capable of taking care of themselves.
[ There's a pause though. ]
But you wouldn't be wrong in thinking there are things wrong with it.
[ Like how some of them died. And at such a young age. ]
