HEAVEN'S BBS | VOICE

I know everybirdie is really busy and there's been a lot going an lately but I've been thinking a lot about what happened at the party.

[Hiyoko is well aware that a lot of other stuff happened right after and there were plenty of gods and shinki still dealing with the fallout from that. That's why she gave it a few days. But now it's time to see if anybirdie else is thinking along the same lines as her.]

That fire was obviously set by people who aren't happy with Amaterasu. I'm not sure if it's her they don't like, or if she's put some unpopular policies in place, but we can't really ignore an attack like this. Has this group tired anything like this before? Have they made any other demands?

[Because 'down with Amaterasu' is one thing, but 'down with the heavens?' What are they supposed to do? Start hurling their temples at the near shore? That demand is way too vague.]

I also heard about an incident with poisoned chocolates. That was before I got here but the whole thing sounded pretty fishy. Does anybirdie else think that might have been an attempt to discredit Amaterasu? And if there any other incidents like that, I wouldn't mind hearing about them.

What you guys think?

That's pretty much what I thought about the chocolates incident, but I got pretty sick and missed a lot of it.

There was a big ayakashi attack right when the second group of gods and shinki got here, but I don't know if that was related or not. The timing seemed kind of weird, but Amaterasu said she didn't know anything about it.

I don't know if you've noticed, but it seems like each group of us shows up about every ten days. Anybody could've spotted the pattern by now, but that first time, nobody knew... except that the ayakashi storm happened right when the second group showed up.

It could've been a coincidence, but I think whoever triggered that ayakashi attack knew when the new gods and shinki would get here. So they have to have known it was going to happen.

Yeah, you're thinking the same way I am. I figure there's a couple of options!

1) Everything is all a part of the same person's plan or the same little group's plan. The old gods disappearing, us coming in, the weird events and the attempt to go after Amaterasu.

2) The people going after Amaterasu aren't the same as the people bringing us in, and they picked this time because the whole cosmic shuffle business is shaking things up and creating an opportunity.

I guess it could be different people doing everything, too, but they'd all have to be spying on each other to make it work so I think we can throw that one out!

Yeah, I can't come up with a good explanation for why we're all here myself. Outside of maybe whoever's doing it is hiding whoever they're really going after by pulling in a bunch of random people, too, or maybe we're just meant to be a distraction in the first place.

I think they might be dead.

Actually, I didn't mean that they're trying to suck in a specific person! Sorry, that didn't really read right, did it? I mean that they're trying to get rid of some specific god here. I don't know which one, though. There've been a few major gods to go missing among our group. Susano'o, Tsukuyomi, Izanagi... those are big names, you know?

I don't know for sure, but the moment we appeared, the former god's presence disappeared everywhere. It was gone from all of Tajimamori's old shrines on the Near Shore, and his worshipers forgot they'd ever visited. I've been trying to help out, but it's still not back to where it was.

All I can figure is that we're being brought in to stop the old gods from reincarnating like normal. Maybe they can't destroy all of the belief that humans have that easily.

There used to be worshipers for some of us, anyway. Not all of us, though, some of the gods who've showed up here I've never even heard of before.

Why do you keep saying somebirdie instead of somebody?
sweetdeath: (t-that's nice for you)

Birds? Okay okay, I won't ask. This time. Explain it later though.

Normally if one of the gods dies they come back as a kid.
sweetdeath: (hmm....)

You've got to admit the bird thing is kind of weird!

I think it's like starting over. I don't know how it works for us new gods, though. That's the old ones -- you know, the ones who are really gods here. Not just replacing the real thing.

You don't get to say that when you haven't even seen my face yet! Meanie.

They might, but I guess their shinki can always tell them about what they did last time around.

I don't think anybody thought up the system. It's just how things happen.

I talked to Bishamon about it. She's one of the real gods around here, but she's pretty friendly compared to some of the others. Her lead shinki Kazuma's helpful too, if you catch him when he's not busy!
sweetdeath: (friendship and flowers)

You're welcome.

Let me know if I can help you out with anything else, okay? I figure we've all got to work together here....
