From: Sakon Shima
Posted: January 29

[The camera isn't exactly steady as it's turned left and right, showing an empty space where a temple used to be. When it's turned back to Sakon's face, he looks despondent with none of his usual cheer.]

So. Uh...

[He looks back over his shoulder, then down at the ground.]

I'm kinda on the streets again...uh...if you can call it that...

[He sighs and it jostles the camera a bit.]

I didn't eat too much this time! I promise! But that's...I mean, nothing was left behind at all this time, so...yeah...

[ Oh man, Sakon. Minako has seen you down in the dumps before, but that was more just because she made you run way too much.. This seem more serious than that, and it's why she tones down her usual ridiculousness as well. ]

.. "Again"? Did this happen to you before?

[ittenbari]

Um...

[There's a pause as he counts something out on his fingers.]

This is the fourth time, I guess.

[reloves]

The fourth?! [ Yeah, clearly Minako didn't see that coming. If he's saying "nothing left behind", then it means the place he was staying at disappeared, right? Could that really happen to someone four times in a row? ]

Is something like that even possible? You're not cursed, are you?

[ At least there's definitely sympathy in her tone, despite the shock. ]

[ittenbari]

It kinda feels that way.

[He sighs. This time it does sort of feel like his fault, even though he knows it's probably not.]

I guess I'll just...I dunno...camp out until I get reassigned or something.

[killercoat]

[ Most of the time, Akutagawa is pretty good at scrolling past all the nonsense, but he seems to stop at Sakon's video. This guy looks just as pitiful as the last time, but upon realizing the other's misfortune, he figures that he could offer some assistance.]

...I heard there's a shinki sanctuary. They should be able to take care of you.

[It's fine if Sakon doesn't accept his advice.]

[ittenbari]

Yeah...thanks...

[He sighs.]

It's just that it kinda, I dunno, makes it a little depressing, I guess?

[killercoat]

It's going to be depressing no matter where you end up. At least you will be in the company of others.

[At least, he won't be alone and being with others in the same predicament might be therapeutic.]

...If you're so resistant, then I'm not going to push. However, I don't think you should just mope around. A good distraction could give you a sense of purpose until your re-assignment.

Man that really sucks. The shinki sanctuary's got space where you can stay, and if you'd like I'm sure Forrest wouldn't mind if you stayed here as long as you need, or at least drop by for food. It's fun to cook and even more fun to cook for more people, so you'd be warmly welcomed anytime.

[ittenbari]

Yeah, I know, but...

[He sighs. It's kind of like the last time this happened, except sort of worse in a way.]

That's kind of depressing, you know?

[smilingbullet]

Yeah I know, the more times it happens the more upsetting it gets. It'll work out eventually though.

[yasei]

Oh. Would you like to know some good trees to sleep in?

[ittenbari]

Uh...

[This guy has a one track mind, doesn't he?]

I'd rather sleep inside...

[yasei]

Really? Aah, I guess it might be a little chilly outside right now. Some bear caves might be better in that case.

[Terra stares at the empty space Sakon shows.]

IF you need somewhere to stay, my temple is open. It's the weird treehouse on the western district.

[ittenbari]

Thanks...

[He doesn't know whether it should make him feel better or worse that he's getting the same sort of responses he got last time. Well, his best guess is that it should make him feel better, but that's not how it's actually working.]

I might stop by, I dunno. Don't wanna crash at any one place too long...

[notatyrant]

Its fine!

[He smiles.]

You can stay for as long as you want!

sorry this is late, I only just saw it

[myblueskies]

Mister Sakon? What happened? Did your temple fall down? Why are you on the streets? [This is bad! Did his god fire him? Could gods even fire you!]

Do you want to come to Elfnein's library? I can make you food if you're hungry and I'm sure Elfnein won't mind if you stay here for a bit!

[ittenbari]

My god disappeared...or left, I guess.

[He sighs, looking despondent.]

It happens. A lot, if you're me.

[Way too often. He's not the sort of person who does well at all when left on his own.]

[myblueskies]

Your god disappeared?

[Had she broken the rules? Were the baby gods kept in a different place and that's why Romeo had never seen one.

And it had happened a lot.]

[shalamayne]

[ Just stares. What is this all about?]

Someone kicked you out for eating too much?

[ittenbari]

I'm not usually that bad...

[Not usually.]

It's just...my god disappeared. There was this one time that happened when there was all this food left behind because I guess my god then wanted to make sure we didn't go hungry or something, but I kinda...ate it all at once...

[shalamayne]

I see. So when a God disappears it seems that most things go with them, but the shinki do not?

For what it's worth, I would have eaten it all too.

[creepface]

Are, a-a-are you okay? You c-can stay with us for a wh-while if you don't wanna sleep outside, I'm s-sure Sh-Shingo-kun would be o-okay with it?

[ittenbari]

I'll be fine.

[Ugh, he should be more positive about this, but it's hard to be his usual cheerful self under these circumstances.]

I mean, it's happened before and I was fine...

[creepface]

I-if you're sure...?

[ He knows what it's like to be homeless, he doesn't want this guy to be that. ]

Th-that's not... o-okay... If, if you want to, you c-can come any t-t-time. It's c-cold out, I don't w-want you to be cold at n-night.
