So, uh... having more than one god. How's that all work? Do they get joint custody, and the shinki just lives at each god's temple for a week at a time or something?

'Cause that mighta happened.

You just work it out with them! You don't have to do a time-share or anything.

Figure out who's got room and who needs you on hand, that's what I'd say.

[very_goodman]

That makes sense. I'd just hate to feel like I'm playin' favorites, y'know? They're all real nice girls.

[doestheickyjobs]

Ooh, lucky guy. Are they cute, too?

You've just got two, so it shouldn't be that hard to figure out something that works for everybody.

[very_goodman]

Three of 'em, actually. And I guess so, yeah. But true angels only exist in the world of 2D!

[killsthebuddha]

Live where you want. Do what you want. No one owns you.

[very_goodman]

Oh, yeah, I know that. I think of 'em as friends.

[killsthebuddha]

So don't talk about shit like custody. It gives people the wrong idea.

[very_goodman]

Yeah, I see what ya mean. Sorry, this is all still pretty new for me.

[doublesmall]

If you didn't know how it worked, the hell did you go and do something stupid like that for?

[very_goodman]

What was I gonna do, let 'em get mauled by ayakashi when their own shinki weren't around to help?

[doublesmall]

Doesn't mean you have to stick around, does it?

Split your time like that, and you're not going to be around when they need one either.

[moonfang]

I just go to whichever one I feel like hanging out at, no big deal

[very_goodman]

Guess I should check out the other temples, then.

[moonfang]

Hell yeah. It all depends on what you feel like. If I want to relax by the beach, I go to Sensei's place. If I wanna hunt in the jungle, I go to Jin's. Being attached to multiple gods gives you all kinds of options!

[He's trying hard not to be judgmental. By nature, he's not a judgemental person.

But the very thought of having two Gods makes him feel quite literally nauseous, and it's just hard not to kneejerk all over this person.]

you really shouldnt have done that
how can you be sure this wont hurt your first god

[very_goodman]

She's fine with it. We talked about it after. It's not like I'm tryin' to keep secrets or play favorites or anything here.

[spes_phthisica]

and what if your two gods are ever at odds with one another
what if the other god does something that you feel is wrong
and you end up blighting your first god

[tuishou]

[Something so despicable 'mighta' happened?]

If you're thinking of doing it, I advise you don't. If you already have... why? [Why, pray tell, are you people being so open about this?]

[very_goodman]

'Cause people were in trouble and I wasn't just gonna stand around and let 'em get attacked.

[He's been over this so many times already.]

[redotiertwo]

wait rewind you can hook up with more than one god
i mean not that i would my god seems pretty cool so someone would have to be peddling some real good shit to convince me
but it sounds like everyone on heres getting up in arms over it which is just making me that much more interested
dont leave me hanging man give the details

[very_goodman]

Yep. As many as you want, I guess. All you gotta do is ask 'em to give you another name. You get a whole new weapon form outta it, too!

[redotiertwo]

well thats disturbingly simple for something that this entire post is getting their undergarment of choice in a gordian knot over
wouldve figured the up top gods would be policing that shit if they cared that much but multigods for everyone who wants them i guess
how did you even end up stumbling into that seems like youd need the most serious of business going down to go for that option accidentally

[jocularly]

Now that's a pickle! I didn't even know that was possible...

[very_goodman]

Yeah, guess so. I'm not too worried about it, I just wanna make sure I'm bein' fair.

[jocularly]

Good of ye to worry about it! I'm sure ye can come up with a solution.
