... that would explain some of the behavior in there and why Terumi is so insistent. Both Natsumi and Terumi blanched when I mentioned where I get the blessed water I use for purification and my reagents. Not the taps, that's for sure.
[Also it's a new shinki thing in a small temple issue the two might be worrying about, given the adjustment period. Way easier for things to slip by until it's too late and purification baths just help... regardless.]
It is! Terumi mentioned that and invited me along. He wants to train me to help dress people in kimonos as I apparently have enough strength for the job. Right now, Natsumi has me washing hair when I'm not helping with inventory - I think it's the kanzashi next. We have similar ideas about hair care, though we're having a big debate on what is superior: argan oil or camellia oil.
Not my best area of borderlines... but I like to think I can try pushing it to longer now. [That's casting mentally.] The strain doesn't really bother me - feels weirdly normal to go through, but after a while things just start breaking down anyway.
Tell me about it. I haven't noticed a difference from sleep, really... but food helps. Free mana I can absorb helps. Otherwise someone has to offer their own mana and that's not really the thing you go asking other people to do.
