Heaven's BBS - Information for Shinki (and their gods)
Posted: Wednesday March 9th, 2016 13:05

[For all that Yukine might have been complaining about how many new shinki there are, how frequently they pop up, and how increasingly impossible it is to mentor the lot of them, that doesn’t mean he hasn’t been thinking about a better way to do this.
So when you, as a new shinki (or god), come to this link on Heaven’s BBS, you will find this carefully put together list of information.
(He took the time to put this all together. You darn well better take the time to read it all.)]
Here is some useful information for the new shinki. I think the gods can get something out of this too, so they should read it also.
● Get along well with your god, as much as possible.
If you are feeling upset or anxious, it will affect your god negatively.
If you do things under a guilty conscience, you will blight your god.
Being touched by ayakashi causes blight too, so don’t do that either.
Mild blight can be cured by cleansing water from a shrine.
A lot of blight can be fatal. Let’s not find out the hard way what happens to the new shinki when their god dies. And vice-versa.
● To start, change into your vessel form when your god calls your vessel name, and return to your normal form when called by your common name.
It will happen naturally but it might feel strange. It’s better to not resist the change. (If you resist it, you’ll grow a rabbit tail.)
You can’t choose your vessel form. So whatever you turn into, work together with your god to find out the best way to be used.
● Your task is basically to help your god in what they want to accomplish as far as granting prayers.
One shinki per god is the ‘exemplar’, and as the name implies they set a good example. Gods should listen to them in particular about how to do things.
● To level up your abilities, I recommend you learn how to make a borderline as soon as possible. It usually functions as a wall between you and whatever is on the other side.
It’s easier to practice against tiny ayakashi. But do it carefully- no matter how small they are they’ll still blight you.
The borderline can also cut, but it can’t kill ayakashi. Only a shinki wielded by a god can kill them.
That’s everything I have for now. A lot of it you’ll just figure out as you go along.
If you want to share a point for adding to this list, leave it in the comments.

But okay, trying to be senpai-ish to the new shinki he just met...]
Maybe not, but I'm one of the shinki that's supposed to be helping you out here.
That includes telling you to not go get yourself killed.
[Really, that shouldn't even be something he has to tell someone...]
no subject
[because then we might have a Problem]
no subject
If I had that kind of power I'd send the lot of you back to where ever you're supposed to be!
Here is obviously not like where you came from, right? [Mister from-a-people-eating-society.] So I'm supposed to help you learn about it so you don't mess up royally, okay?
no subject
You're bad at it! you haven't even told me why my memories are gone.
no subject
Why? I can't tell you what I don't know. All shinki are that way. It's just the way it is.

Listen, I'm trying to help, so don't call my answers shit. Besides, anyone else would give you the same answer.

I, and others like Kazuma-san, don’t mind answering your questions. It’s what we’re supposed to do. But if someone honestly answers and you still can’t accept it, whose fault is that? This is the way things are now, no matter how much it sucks for you, and getting on with it will make you a whole lot stronger than dragging your heels, complaining and asking ‘why’ every step of the way.
2/2
If things were reversed and we were in your eating-people-is-ok-world, I'd bet you'd eat people who complained too much.
no subject
Anyway, I don't know where you learned that, but it's always good to try and shake up the status quo once in a while. You never know if things could be better if you do things the same way forever. But you can do as you like. Even if your information is kinda cruddy, it's better than nothin.
[which is as close to "thank you" as you're going to get from Jerk Sword]
Hehehe. I just might! People who bitch would just have to be fast enough to get away
no subject
whatever.]
He's a jersey-wearing guy called Yato.
Glad I'm better than nothing.
