010 | Relief and Rescue

[godsoffortune]

Who: Everyone!
What: Cleanup and moral support
When: All day May 16
Where: Just outside of Tokyo
Summary: It's time to get rid of the mess that that demon made!



The attack by the demon recently has left the surrounding area in a very sorry state. Not only are some people still hospitalized or slowly recovering from the affects of the draining of their life force, but a lot of nasty accidents happened during the time that people were walking around like they were dead to the world. It's been attributed to an odd natural disaster, and many think it may have been an illness that caused it.

The Heavens have decided to send any available gods and shinki down to help out in the relief efforts. If they try hard enough, they should be easily seen for the times when they are helping people out, so it shouldn't be a problem.

On top of that, some new arrivals have suddenly appeared. Amaterasu has left them little handwritten notes pinned to their shirts:

'These people need your help! I'm sorry to throw you into things like this, but please do what you can.

☼ Amaterasu ☼'

And yes, she has doodled little suns next to her name.



Care

There are a lot of people who were left hurt because of the incident with the demon and they are still trying to recover from it. From broken bones all the way to mental trauma, these people have seen a lot of crazy stuff and they aren't feeling so hot. Any kind of care is viable, but you might also want to just be an errand-runner in order to help the qualified people who are already doing a pretty good job of helping these poor folks out.

Food

A fair number of homes and stores managed to get destroyed amidst everything going on with the demon, so there's a lot of work for the neighborhood to do in helping them out. Whether by helping to rebuild what has been broken or by just handing out some free food to the people who need it. Of course, you might also take some food for yourself. Hopefully you're not a horrible enough person to just steal from the homeless~

Literal Cleaning

And here's where the fun comes in. The buildings that need to be rebuilt and the streets that need to be cleaned up are all under works and you can help in any way you deem worthy. You might carry loads or actually put forth the effort to help rebuild some lost homes, it's up to you. Of course, if you set about helping out in this way, you might notice little fairy-like spirits flitting around each of the Near Shore residents who are working hard to help each other out. The little spirits shine brightly and seem to shy away if approached, but they titter happily anytime the person they're following does something nice.

Banquet

After the day is done, the Heavens have a special treat set up for anyone who helped out - a large banquet in the Meeting Hall back on the Far Shore. Just like any other banquet, there is food and booze of every kind available. But also, the small tittering bright white spirits are in attendance, following around any Far Shore resident who helped out today. You might find yourself with a new friend or two who won't leave you alone, who keep giggling anytime you're kind, and who don't seem to be able to talk and only exude delight and good feelings.



In Summary:

• Help out the people affected by the demon
• Give out food to people who need it
• Clean up the messes
• Eat some good food, drink some good booze
• Have fun~

Comments

[galactically]

[Whatever burdens that Sheryl happens to be carrying during her melancholic song seem to be lifted away from her shoulders, the extra weight now gone. She feels light, a tired smile on her lips as her impromptu performance earns an applause from her audience. It doesn't matter if she's on a grand stage or in a tiny room, as long as she can continue singing, she'll be okay — for her own sake and for the people who listen to her music.

They need all the relief they can get, a distraction from all the pain and suffering they had to ensure. It's not too different from singing to the people in the emergency shelter, not in the least.

Her eyes pan over to Souji as he offers a water bottle. She reaches for it, keeping her own smile intact as she tucks some strands behind her ears.]

Thank you very much.

[If this were a lighter situation, Sheryl would be boasting at how well received she was. Not this time, not when watching the injured has humbled her.]

It's what I felt that I needed to do. I just couldn't stand by and do nothing when I have the ability to do anything.

[socials]

[ It's already obvious that much of the atmosphere has changed after her song, and it's honestly going to help a great deal. So, were the situation a different one, Sheryl's boasting would be entirely warranted. Something like this surely doesn't seem like much to some people, but the impact is enough to make a notable shift.

Injuries aren't just limited to the physical, after all, and she's done a lot to help heal the wounds they can't see.

Ducking his head in response to her thanks, Souji looks from her at the people around them for a moment. This isn't necessarily something that he's seen before, not in person, but he knows what he's meant to be doing anyways - helping, however that is. That isn't exclusive to the injured, either, because if they wear themselves down without looking out for one another... they won't be able to help much.

He looks back to her, smiling softly. ]

That's what we need, I think. Anything that can help will help, and that's obviously lifted their spirits up.
