Who: Zeno, Ouka, later Kija
What: "Two can keep a secret if one of them is dead," unless the dead one is Ouka.
When: 6-23
Where: Far/Near Shore... around...
Warnings: Nothing yet...

Zeno can be a little excessive.

Giving Kaya the sundress provoked such a reaction in her... It was a little overwhelming for them both. Zeno didn't want to-- it wasn't really upsetting to her (he hoped), but he wanted her getting nice things to be the norm, not the exception. She'd carved her living out of the dirt for eighteen years and she deserved to have her stay in heaven be, well, heavenly.

So he decided that gifts would now be regular, but instead of a whole mess of flowers and snacks and clothes, maybe just one thing.

Though clothes were a priority on that list. And the selection was amazing!

So many colors had to mean so many expensive dyes, but little girls like Ouka were unfazed by them. There were woven designs, embroidered designs, even printed designs in more colors than Zeno could easily count. And different shapes and sizes and all ready-made.

"There's so many of this one!" He held up a sky-blue shirt with criss-cross patterns woven across the front. "Do people ever walk into a place and realize someone is wearing the exact same clothes they are? Wouldn't that be funny?"

Sleepover!

Who: Forrest, all of his teenage CR, and CR of that CR
What: Giant sleepover log
When: The night of June 21
Where: Lakshmi's temple
Warnings: Cuteness overload

[Forrest has never had a sleepover before, so he's pretty excited to host one at his temple. He sends out invitations ahead of time to everyone he can think of, letting them know to bring pajamas, snacks, and even a friend or two if they want. He's clad in a frilly pink nightgown with ribbons and bows for the occasion, and he's temporarily converted Lakshmi's audience chamber into a space where the guests can all party and sleep. It was already mostly full of pillows to begin with, so all he had to do was move some more in and set up some tables for snacks and things. One of the tables conspicuously contains all of his beauty supplies, because like hell is Forrest hosting a slumber party without makeovers. Anyone who shows even the slightest bit of interest will get their makeup, hair, or nails done. Soft music and the scent of lotus blossoms drift through the air, creating the perfect atmosphere for everyone to relax and enjoy themselves.]

((OOC: If you've got a teenager that Forrest has talked to more than once, assume he invited them. Friends of friends are totally welcome as well. Everyone can feel free to put up their own toplevels, and everybody tag everybody and mingle to your heart's content!))

Who: Ouka/Aya/Kairi & Ouka/Aya/Omi
What: Prayers and shopping
When: May 31st & June 3rd (backdated forever~)
Where: Various places in the Far Shore

[A. 5/31] Ouka/Aya/Kairi Prayer
[ Ouka is excited to be making more friends finally. She's really taken a liking to Kairi, and invited her over to meet Aya as well. With everything that's happened, a girls' night seemed to be in order.

She hears a knock at the door and immediately bolts out of her chair. ]
I'LL GET IT!! [ Her yell rings through the villa as she dashes down the hallway to open the door for their guest ]


[B. 6/3] Ouka/Aya/Omi Shopping
[ If there's one thing more exciting than shopping, it's shopping with Omi. Ouka has spent the past hour picking out the perfect outfit for the day. Finally, she gives herself a once over in the mirror, decides that this is the outfit, and makes her way down the hall toward Aya's room. She knocks excitedly on the door ] Are you ready? He'll probably be here any minute~

Who: Zeno + you
What: Drowning.
When: June 3
Where: The beach.
Warnings: Drowning.

[Zeno was... subdued. Shin-ah's disappearance was enough of a blow, but having to turn around and... do that... to the people he's loved and lost, well. Hopefully no one noticed him removing himself from society for a week or so. While even he's not sure exactly where the line between his natural personality and his usual exuberance is drawn -- people change so much over the course of their lives, after all -- enough people have seen enough of his unhappiness that he just wanted to rest and recoup before he attempted living again.

So he'd gotten it out of his system and was now idling along the beach, shoes off and feeling the sand burn his feet.]


A

[Some sort of glimmering fin catches his attention near the horizon line... A bit like a large fish waving? Which is silly, fish do not wave. But Zeno waves back, all the same, enjoying the flight of a fancy that a fish might be waving to him.

He wades into the water, just to speed up the process of the sunburn healing on his feet. That same fin seems a little closer... too close, maybe, after so short a period of time, but it wouldn't be the first time Zeno's perception of time failed him.

The fish jumps a little higher than Zeno would expect it to, but maybe that's also because it's too close? Hm.

He starts heading towards it...]


B

Aaah!

[Zeno yells out right as he's dragged underwater, and that doesn't work well, that involves choking on seawater. There's a horrible moment where he inhales, feels it go down his windpipe where liquid is not meant to be, where it's too thick and the inability to breathe makes him gasp in desperation again, suck in more water, and he's not sure if it's lack of oxygen or pain in his chest that causes his vision to blacken around the edges.

He struggles to pull himself back up over the surface, but his limbs are screaming against the strain... for a horrible second he's convinced that this is what will finally kill him and he's resigned to that, because-- but no. It's taking a minute, because he's far from Hiryuu Castle, but his body suddenly expels the water, suddenly the tiredness and strain from the lack of oxygen heals away, and he breaks the surface, gasps in just enough air to hold his breath, and gets dragged by the feet right back down to the depths by this-- it must be an ayakashi, this fish he saw waving earlier.

Zeno closes his eyes, not really looking forward to his options. Either he's going to black out from lack of oxygen, or he's going to breathe in water and drown again-- before his body resets the damage and he gets to make that awful choice all over again. The ayakashi has a hold on him, and unfortunately, inability to breathe is not the kind of injury that will give him the strength to fight his way out.

But his reverie is interrupted by a splash from above, as the ayakashi drags down someone else, and he frantically paddles his way over, the hold on his foot be damned.

You need to breathe, after all!]


C

[From the depths... of the ocean... he emerges.

Water and seaweed drip from every surface of his body as he emerges on the beach. He's shivering in the breeze, a small crustacean is hooked on to his sleeve. There's shells and driftwood stuck in his hair, complementing his beautiful gold medallion.

He begins the trudge out of the shallows and into the beach proper... and grimaces at all the sand that clings to him as he walks.]

Who: Youji + you
What: Emotional hangover, some god power exploration...
When: Slightly backdated, June 1-3 as needed
Where: Outside his home, let's be flexible.
Warnings: Not so far. Will update as it becomes necessary.

June 1

[It's not really 'liquid courage' if you don't need courage in the first place, but there you go.

Youji is seated in an outdoor cafe area, it is barely past noon, but there's a bottle of wine on the table and he should probably, probably look for someone to share it with, because otherwise he will drink the whole thing. He's got enough in his system to dull his thoughts, but his reflexes are fast behind and if he's talking between glasses...

So to someone at the next table or just passing by (i.e., you), he lifts the bottle as if to pour, and smiles sheepishly.]


I have a spare glass, too... this is too much for one person.

June 2

[Back in that same cafe area... now he's got coffee instead of alcohol. Must have been a rough morning.

He's also got a sketchbook out in front of him, and few scattered pages are ripped and balled up around him. He starts to sketch, but is clearly frustrated by something, and when he's not ripping out more pages, he's very vigorously scribbling over drawings of these three women. He isn't the best artist, but he was passable enough to teach it credibly.]


Meditations on... what, exactly, am I doing? Wish I had that painting to destroy, now...

June 3

[Surprisingly enough, he's back in the same spot. He's already turned the waitress away twice, though, as he checks under the table and all the chairs, looking frantically for something.]

I know I've ripped it half to shreds by this point but is this any way to...

[He knocks a few balled up papers and swears as he bends over to pick them all up.]

Where is my damn sketchbook?
