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~

[She chuckles; Eno is right about that. But...well. Hopefully Dio won't overwhelm him too much.]

Thanks Eno. I can't really thing of anything that I need right now? Other then figure out how to introduce myself to the shinki teacher, I think.

And figure out how...well, ayakashi fighting will work.
hackberrydragon: ([<3] | How could anyone ask for more?)

[personal profile] hackberrydragon 2016-11-28 02:40 pm (UTC)(link)
[ ....several hours in the future, Eno will look back at this convo and laugh. ]

Shinki teacher... Do you mean Kazuma-san? I've spoken to him a few times asking for help with my ability. Turns out we're pretty similar. If anyone can tell you how things work, it's him.

Just tell him you're new and you need someone to help you out.
shockshot: (soft)

[personal profile] shockshot 2016-11-30 04:56 am (UTC)(link)
[...poor Eno?]

Mm! Yes, Kazuma-san! I'm a little nervous, I guess?

[She laughs a little, and scratches the back of her head. It's silly, she knows but...she relaxes.]

But if he's similar to you then...it won't be bad at all.
hackberrydragon: ([...] | Found it yet)

[personal profile] hackberrydragon 2016-12-01 12:52 pm (UTC)(link)
He's only a strict teacher if you're slacking off.

[ And here he is trying to be as encouraging as possible. But there's a bit of a shake of his head. ]

His abilities are like mine except more... levelled up. Like we can both see things when it comes to ayakashi but he can see more than I can so I thought he could help me get better.
shockshot: (quiver)

[personal profile] shockshot 2016-12-02 04:40 am (UTC)(link)
Well, I don't do that.

[She thinks. She honestly doesn't know, since she hasn't had any intense lessons. Unless you count Jakob...]

...what do you mean by see things? If you don't mind me asking. It sounds similar to something I can do.

Sort of.
hackberrydragon: ([um] | Only goes so far)

[personal profile] hackberrydragon 2016-12-05 02:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Well... it's mostly ayakashi...

[ He pauses a moment, trying to make sense of how best to explain his ability. ]

Like.. I can tell how many of them there are and what direction they're coming from. I've been working with Kazuma-san to refine it. He can pinpoint things with even greater precision than I can! If I can tell how many there are, he can tell you what how many they are, how far away they are and what their weak spots are. He's pretty amazing.
shockshot: (liek whatever)

[personal profile] shockshot 2016-12-05 11:54 pm (UTC)(link)
[She considers him. What does he...OH. So he's talking about his ability as a weapon. She has no idea what hers is actually...]

Wow...Kazuma-san sounds more impressive all the time.

[And it makes it a little more nerve wrecking to approach him. But she won't let it stop her. She just needs to come up with an excuse, really.]

Between the two of you and the right team of shinki, you'd be unstoppable.
hackberrydragon: ([<3] | How could anyone ask for more?)

[personal profile] hackberrydragon 2016-12-07 04:04 pm (UTC)(link)
He's been doing this longer than we have and you know what they say. With history comes experience. If there's anyone who's going to be a great teacher for us newbies, it would definitely be him.

[ There's a small shake of his head though. ]

N... no, I'm not that good. Besides, he's already got a huge team of shinki to work with.
shockshot: (pose)

[personal profile] shockshot 2016-12-07 11:59 pm (UTC)(link)
[She nods; she can understand that feeling.]

Yeah, that's true! I just hope we're not placing too much of a burden on him.

But maybe with practice, you'll be just like him! Well. Ability wise, I mean. I didn't realize he was leading a shinki team.

That sounds impressive. And...a lot of pressure.

[Then again, she hasn't met the man. Maybe he thrives under pressure?]
hackberrydragon: ([:3] | God I'm trying to)

[personal profile] hackberrydragon 2016-12-08 06:48 am (UTC)(link)
It must be hard on him to be such a responsible shinki to begin with.

[ And sheepishly rubbing the back of his head. ]

But yeah! If you need to contact Kazuma-san, he has actual lessons for the newer shinki every now and then. Just let him know.
shockshot: (no big!)

[personal profile] shockshot 2016-12-08 09:44 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, it must be. I hope he gets the breaks and praise he deserves.

[Maybe they should do something for him, as shinki. Hm...]

Is there like a registry, or should I just...call him?
hackberrydragon: ([...] | God knows I haven't)

[personal profile] hackberrydragon 2016-12-09 12:11 pm (UTC)(link)
I hope so, too... but he seems like the guy that's been overworking for a while.

[ Head tilting to the side thoughtfully. ]

To be honest, I just texted the guy one day.
shockshot: (content)

[personal profile] shockshot 2016-12-10 08:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Sounds like it...

[And with a lot on his plate too. She hoped he could have some sort of break. She was sure he deserved one.

Though Eno admitting that made her laugh ruefully.]


You're braver then me. I've been fretting about it.
hackberrydragon: ([?] | When a voice from behind me)

[personal profile] hackberrydragon 2016-12-11 01:55 pm (UTC)(link)
[ He does end up rubbing the back of his neck at that, almost sheepishly. ]

It wasn't so much bravery than desperation. I just... really needed someone to teach me how to fight here.

[ A sigh. ]

With my god getting more shinki, I thought I should be more useful and Kazuma-san was the guy I had to talk to in order to get stronger.
shockshot: (really?)

[personal profile] shockshot 2016-12-13 12:02 am (UTC)(link)
Aaaah....

[She nods. No, she can understand that, the desperation and all. She still doesn't know much about what she can do as a weapon.]

I see. I'm sure you're very useful already but! It's good that you can do something more now. If that makes any sense.

[Inwardly, she's brooding a little. What if her god started collecting other shinki? She might start getting jealous, and want to stand out too.]
hackberrydragon: ([:3] | God I'm trying to)

[personal profile] hackberrydragon 2016-12-13 01:37 pm (UTC)(link)
[ He does relax though, offering her a reassuring smile back. ]

It'll take some work... but I'm sure you'll be able to hold your own too, when the time comes for you to have to.
shockshot: (content)

[personal profile] shockshot 2016-12-14 01:27 am (UTC)(link)
I hope so.

[She smiles a little more.]

Because I want to do my best and do my part.
hackberrydragon: ([<3] | Trying not to need you)

[personal profile] hackberrydragon 2016-12-16 03:49 am (UTC)(link)
[ Somehow, that's pretty assuring to hear. So he nods back at her. ]

That's probably the best way to go. But... listen... if you need any help, you know where to reach me, right? I might not have that much experience but I'll do what I can.
shockshot: (quiet)

[personal profile] shockshot 2016-12-16 03:59 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I do.

[Thanks to some fiddling, she's figured it out.]

So thank you. I'll ask you if there's something I'm stuck on, I promise.
hackberrydragon: ([:3] | God I'm trying to)

[personal profile] hackberrydragon 2016-12-17 01:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Sure. I'd be happy to help.

[ And a smile back before jerking his head back to his workload. ]

A... anyway, I should probably get back to work. This load isn't going to haul itself.
shockshot: (banter)

[personal profile] shockshot 2016-12-18 10:55 am (UTC)(link)
[She nods, making to straighten up.]

Thanks. And you're right! I should get going myself. I can help you with your load if you want.

[She might not be able to take as much (at all) but she could at least make the offer.]
hackberrydragon: ([<3] | How could anyone ask for more?)

[personal profile] hackberrydragon 2016-12-21 02:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Nah, I'm fine. I'm almost done, really... then it'll be looking for Sheryl and Zoro for me.

[ There's a laugh before he has an expression on his face that seems to be a well meaning 'that's life.' ]

I'll see you around!
shockshot: (in passing)

[personal profile] shockshot 2016-12-21 08:09 pm (UTC)(link)
[She nods; Zoro sounds familiar, but Sheryl, not so much.]

Okay! See you around!

[And she turns around, jogging off. This was a nice talk.]
