Posted: 1 May 2016
From: Jae-Ha

Have any shinki woken up one morning to find that they could suddenly recall something? Like a piece of their memory had been restored, as if it were never missing to begin with.

I need to know if it's a bad sign, or if anything needs to be done.

I'm afraid that's private, but I admit I was trying to provoke him. He'd insulted me, too.

Next time I'll know better!

If he threw the first punch, so to speak, then I can't say there's anything wrong in speaking back. I was a little rude to Suijin just from her expectations in etiquette. Usually I'm not harsh to girls.

I hope you're okay, at least.

Yes, I'm all right. Considering the attack, I wasn't badly injured at all.

[Youkai toughness is part of it; the majority, Hakkai's quite sure, was just luck.]

What did you and Suijin wind up discussing?

She was so insistent on etiquette I felt the need to correct her. I may be a polite man, but I hate pointless rules. Especially if my freedom is questioned.

She asked if I was prepared to face the consequences for that mindset. I told her I was, of course.

You may want to be a little more careful than that.

The Heavens do punish wrongdoers, or so I've heard. And "wrong" can mean anything that breaks their rules....

I'm a cautious man, but I'm not cautious enough that I'd stay silent for something I don't view as right. If it turns out that they'd like to punish me, they're free to try.

I won't lie and say I can always keep my mouth shut in those situations myself, but if they want to punish us, I promise you, they can.

Have you seen a case of that before, as well?

Only heard of one. A high-ranking god had apparently been involving himself with forbidden magic, and Heaven had him slain and reincarnated.

Quite recently, if what I heard was correct.

I don't know that I'd do anything quite to that degree.

Of course, we're not very high-ranking, either. I'm not sure how much we can get away with.

I won't have anyone telling me what I can or can't get away with. If that makes me the test, I don't mind that.

Of course, of course!

Ha ha, just don't test it with Fuujin. I assure you, trees hurt.

You don't have to worry about me. I have more durability than most humans.

[Not that he knows anything about the castle and his distance from it, but like, he jumps so high and he always lands on his feet. So.]

[So does he, which is likely the only reason he's not dead... but he's not going to sit here all afternoon trying to argue someone into caution. Jae-Ha will do what he's going to do regardless of what's sensible.]

That's good.

This is unrelated to everything else, but you were the man with the dragon on the network before, right? How is it doing?

Yes, that was me. Jeep is doing well. He seems to have settled into his new home.

[Hakkai's pieced together several dragon beds for him already, and he seems content.]

What a relief. This may be a selfish request, but have you had a chance to show him to Kija just yet? I'm doing everything I can to see that he's cheered up due to his own situation with his god.

I'm afraid I haven't yet, but I should be able to stop by and introduce the two of them. Who is Kija's god?

Hedone? His name is Youji.

Hedone... no, I don't think we've met. Well, it shouldn't be too difficult to find his temple.

You're not missing out on much. It's not difficult, but I can send you directions if it's too much trouble. Whenever you decide to head over, that is.

If you wouldn't mind, I'll try to make some time in the next few days.

So long as it's not too inconvenient for you, any time is more than I could ask for. Thank you.
