As Gods of Fortune, you must shoulder great responsibility to maintain harmony in your domain and promote peace, prosperity and happiness throughout the Near Shore. Please consider yourselves free to request an audience should you wish for guidance in your new roles, or need to bring any other items of import to our attention.

We ask you all to join us in honoring Li Tieguai and Nekhbet as new Gods of Fortune among the multitude of gods.

[chibisu]

Kurosaki-sama, Hakkai-san, you both have my utmost congratulations for all your hard work. I look forward to helping humanity with you both.

Please let me know if there is anything I can do to assist you. Perhaps you can visit and we can celebrate.

[reformedsinner]

Ebisu-sama, there must have been some kind of mistake here. I'm sure it'll be resolved shortly.

[chibisu]

Why do you say that, Hakkai-san?

[reformedsinner]

My domain is rather limited, and I certainly haven't sought out this kind of recognition.

Besides, I'm not sure I'm qualified to take on such broad responsibilities.

[chibisu]

It isn't a matter on if you have sought it, and it's alright if your domain is limited.

This is a matter decided by humans and no one else.

[reformedsinner]

I see.

Well, in that case, I'll do my best. If I do need assistance, I may have to impose upon you.

[chibisu]

It will be no trouble at all. I will do my best to assist!

I knew you would be a reliable person, Hakkai-san.

[revolutionfalcon]

I'll pass on celebrating. This isn't really the kind of thing I'm used to.

[chibisu]

Does that mean a gift basket is more acceptable?

[revolutionfalcon]

No. [If he never sees another gift basket in his life, it'll be too soon.]

As far as I'm concerned, this post is already making a bigger deal out of it than necessary.

[chibisu]

It is a rather big deal.

[revolutionfalcon]

Titles and fanfare don't matter to me. It's useful to know, but I'm going to do things just the same.

[chibisu]

Even if they don't matter to you, they can still be important.

[revolutionfalcon]

I'm not going to want to celebrate it if it doesn't matter to me, though.

[Which is mostly what was under discussion here.]

[chibisu]

I see. You are a very interesting person, Kurosaki-sama.

[revolutionfalcon]

Not the word most people would use.

[Some do, but others prefer "stubborn" or "allergic to fun" or whatever else.]

[chibisu]

I have been told I do things very differently from other people sometimes.

[revolutionfalcon]

Doesn't surprise me.

[He is a kid right now, for starters.]

[chibisu]

[HE SURE IS A KID....]

Regardless, you have my congratulations, and I look forward to our continuing work with one another when our paths cross.

[revolutionfalcon]

I'll be useful to have an old god willing to work with us again, at least.
