009 | Where Your Demons Hide
Who: Everyone!
What: Emergency demon fighting
When: Late May 5-Early May 6
Where: Just outside of Tokyo
Summary: The demon from the school has reared its ugly head again and needs to be taken down.
On the evening of May 5, the Heavens suddenly receive an influx of prayers from people in and around a certain town just outside of Tokyo. There seem to be a lot of people in the area that have suddenly stopped responding normally (or at all). The situation continues to spread as the night goes on until not only is the whole town suffering from this malady, but the neighboring towns are starting to become affected as well.
With so many gods and shinki on hand - including new ones that have just appeared - the Heavens have issued a request for any available gods and shinki to go investigate what might be happening down on the Near Shore. New gods and shinki will be given the low-down on what's happening, but not much more than that.
The situation will continue to expand until just a little before dawn, when the demon finally has enough power to revive.
Drained Humans
Many humans in the affected areas are walking around despondently. Oftentimes, they are just walking into things or getting hit by things. There have been a few car-related incidents as well. Anyone who was present for the high school incident will recognize these symptoms as something that was happening to people in the school. The glazed looks, the spiritless responses and reactions. So this should be fairly familiar to some.
No One's Safe
Unfortunately, being in the town will start to wear on anyone who is there. Gods and shinki alike will find themselves growing more despondent the longer they spend in the town. All of their energy will be slowly sapped from their bodies, and shinki in particular will feel almost like their existence is draining away.
Hellish Circle
There is a large park in the center of the town. Drawn all around this park is a magic circle, large enough to encompass the whole park. There are candles around the edges of the circle, and in the center there is a cup filled with blood covered by a mask with a swirling eye pattern on it. Stepping into this circle will not only make you extremely tired and suddenly drained, but it will also bring bat-like ayakashi bearing down on you.
The Demon
The Demon itself rears its ugly head just a little before dawn, springing out from the center of the magic circle and looking right pleased with itself. It stands about 5'8" tall, so it is largely unimposing, but there is an aura about it that makes it undeniable that it is powerful. The demon will gladly fight anyone who comes at it, though most he will just shove out of the way without a second thought.

In Summary:
- Help the drained people
- Try not to get drained yourself
- Be careful about being corrupted
- Fight the demon
- Have fun~

[For the first and only time, he's glad for Kritiker's insistence on cover jobs. Ready explanations at the ready.]
I know you're both in a terrifying position. And I'm not being particularly helpful in some ways, but I can't entirely help that myself. This is a strange and terrifying world we've all been thrown into.
Normally, you'd be in your temple, and have things explained to you there. Much better than I can.
no subject
Is not dead? If so, maybe it's good that he's not here.
She glances at the stranger, and then back at Aya. For once, Ouka decides to keep quiet. Allow Aya to process the information, first. ]
no subject
[Or, on the other hand, maybe he's a crazy person.
[The thought isn't a comforting one, and Aya draws closer to Ouka. If she hadn't just met her - if this had been Suzume or Madoka or someone like that, if the girl had been one of her friends, or someone she knew from school - she would have reached for Ouka's hand. Not that it would have changed anything. It would just have made her feel a little safer, a little less totally alone. Safety in numbers, right?]
Um. So, well, you work at the restaurant or something? But Ran never... I mean, he didn't--
[Aya hesitates, but there's no good way to say it. She's just going to have to be blunt. There are lots of ways this man could know her brother, and they don't all make him someone she can trust.]
All his friends were... his age. Even if you know him, I don't think he'd like you talking to me.
no subject
[While the idea of Aya having a part-time job is so fucking normal it burns, Youji does not have the patience or the time to be distracted by it. It's not even worth teasing him, if he were here.]
Another friend of mine and your brother's is here, but much younger than when I knew him. It might be related. I'm only a couple of years older than him in reality. I know him as an adult.
...you are more than welcome to protest the insanity of this. I'll wait. It's an excellent stress reliever, albeit a temporary one.
no subject
Er. Except.
Say what? ]
Huh?
[ Please repeat that last bit, because it makes no sense. ]
So you're saying. People's ages randomly change when they get here? Are you serious? Do you have any proof?
no subject
[Brutally honest here. He can do that, although he keeps his tone measured and even.]
no subject
[And that's, well...
[Well. That's exactly why she's inclined to believe it. Nothing else about this situation makes sense, and even if it did absolutely nobody would try and convince an absolute stranger of it unless they were completely insane. Either this man is entirely insane - and if he is, then so is she: what else did you call a girl who heard voices telling her she was a God? - or the situation is.
[She turns to Ouka. She worries at her lip. She doesn't relish telling her clearly far-more-sensible companion all this, but somebody has to.]
I - this is going to sound crazy, but I think we should at least hear him out. I mean, we don't have anything else to go on. Not really.
no subject
So is she really in any place to talk about making sense...? ]
Okay... I suppose we can hear him out.
[ BUT JUST IN CASE YOU THOUGHT YOU WERE GONNA GET OFF EASY, MISTER... ]
But don't try anything sneaky, old man! We're not going anywhere weird with you.
no subject
I can take you somewhere to wait. If you're a god, you should have your own temple residence, and I'm more than willing to help you find it.
If you don't, I can give over mine. I've explained it as I know it to be. They want us here because something's affecting all these people. We're supposed to be trying to stop it, or at least mitigate it.
