010 | Relief and Rescue

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~

[Another similarity that Sheryl is able to discover: Maria had been saved by her friends. One of her hands subconsciously drifts to her stomach, keeping it there as if to remind herself of what Ranka was able to do for her after being rescued by Alto.]

Treasure these people forever. If they can handle you at your worst, they will also care for you at your best.

[Despite the confidence projected in her tone, Sheryl actually feels a bit relieved to find someone she can relate to, even if the differences between them are vast.

She nods at first, but her mouth gapes a bit.]


Right, that's what they are called. "Noise"?
declamando: (disturbed)

[Treasuring those people is something that isn't even a question for Maria, and there's a confident nod as answer. Even when she'd been prepared to die for her atonement, they'd stood by her. Those weren't people to be parted with lightly.]

They have done, and I can only hope they'll keep on doing so in future. I'll be sure to return the favour, too.

[The unfamiliarity with Noise makes Maria blink for a moment before she closes her eyes and shakes her head like she's reprimanding herself.]

Sorry, they were so common in my world until just recently...they're alien-like beasts that turn living matter into carbon compounds with a touch. Conventional weapons are almost useless against them.
galactically: (my feelings do not rest)

I like the way you think.

[Those words come out so easily without any hesitation on Sheryl's end. It's what she says often to the people whose beliefs intertwine with hers, and that's something she doesn't take for granted being who she is.

A flicker of confusion emerges in her eyes as she blinks, lifting up an eyebrow.]


All living matter? Even people? That sounds awful! But how do you deal with those monsters if weapons don't work?
declamando: (deep thought)

[With a suitably grim look, Maria nods in confirmation. It's never enjoyable to think about the damage Noise can do too long, especially since she's been party to absolute horrors committed with control of them.

While this information would be confidential in her own world, in this one it doesn't matter nearly as much, and Maria's done with lying her way out of things.]


Even people. They can be fought with what the people of my world call heretical technology - ancient relics with power or abilities that shouldn't have been possible in that time. Even if that power has waned over the years, modern science can be combined to make them viable weapons again.
