Date: April 8th 2017 (Morning)
[ Rise and shine early birds! There's a prim-looking young woman who is smiling broadly and doing her darndest to contain herself as she speaks formally to all who will listen. She is well-dressed enough, but her hair is completely down. ]
Good morning, all who dwell in the Far Shore! I must speak with you about an urgent matter - and so I resolved to use this device once more, to the best of my ability.
[ She holds up a single finger. ]
I have just learned that the regular training scheduled to engage with new gods would be in service of one new god! So I have made the following bargain with Amaterasu-sama -- that I would personally speak with and train this new god in the ways of the Far Shore in exchange for a holiday excursion for all who would join us! I just... could not stand idly by after you all worked so hard and dealt such a blow to those who threatened us!
[ She lowers her hand. ]
There is just one small problem...
[ She looks expectantly up once more, a resigned sort of smile there. ]
I do not know all of you as well as I would like! So if I were to bring a suggestion or two for such an excursion before Amaterasu-sama, I do not know what that should be! I have... certainly never been able to consider such things myself, so I would not be a good person to decide for all of you.
Therefore, would you do me the favor of telling me: where do you consider a beautiful place to travel to and relax? Perhaps a place that is better suited to entertainment? I heard of a place called Capypa Land...
[ She shakes her head. ] This is not about me. [ And calms herself again. ]
Unfortunately we do not have much time, so please-!!
[ She bows her head, a little awkwardly since she's holding the phone. ]
[[ OOC Plotting Post is over here! ]]

Do you think currency exchange would be an issue though?
no subject
I don't think so. Many Hawaiian stores accept yen, since there are a lot of Japanese tourists coming there, and there are several good currency exchangers around the place as well for the few shops that don't accept yen. It shouldn't be any problem. Mainland USA would be more troublesome, but not so much Hawaii in particular.
no subject
Have you been to Hawaii?
[It's the safest way to ask.]
1/2
I have, yes.
[ So that's a very short answer, coming from him when they're not in the field; give him some minutes to type a second message. ]
2/2 private
I've been there but not as a shinki. I don't really talk about remembering a bunch of stuff but I know that I was born there, and I remember being back years and years later with a few fellow service members.
[ Note the difference between "know" and "remember" there. ]
[Private here on out]
Know. Remember. They're important differences for a shinki.]
Explains your shooting skills. Marines?
[Private]
Navy, recruited to a mixed special forces recent years.

I don't know, a bit of both, honestly. I think.

[And living in a temple of old shinki, she tries really hard not to think too much on things.]
By the way, did you remember things in your sleep too?
no subject
I did, indeed. I think that's the norm for it. However "normal" it is to remember at all.
[ Old shinki, after all, does not and it's a new phenomenon. ]

Though I guess it's for the safety of other shinki too. I wouldn't be surprised if some of the old gods saw us as an infection to stay away from.
