Kazuma, what's going on here?

[ Kazuma, this is a public bbs. She can see these messages as well as you can. ]

[nailed_navigation]

Viina... Let me explain.

[Okay Kazu... Time to do you dance. Avoid angering your goddess because you were caught talking about her heavenly body of work.]

We were just discussing how much effort you put into your role. It is a compliment. All your hard efforts are being recognized.

[ Because really, if he has dirty laundry to air, she's not going to let Sho see it... or anyone else for that matter.

Soooo... almost predictably, she'll head over to wherever he is probably fretting over what her answer's going to be and just... kind of tap his shoulder. ]

You're letting him bait you.

Re: text > action;

[nailed_navigation]

[Hsfwwsgfa. Damn. Damn. And double damn. Akayashi blight him and back. He knew that it was a mistake to interact with the new Susanoo but he just couldn't let Viina's pride get hurt like that! Upon getting tapped on his shoulders, Kazuma jerked a little in surprise before he quickly got himself in control.]

I... I know, I just wanted to let him know that, not everyone sees him as the best. To me, you are the only God to worship.

text > action;

[dominatriarch]

[ GDIT Kazuma you're going to make her blush with all that attention. ]

I know... and what I've said all those years ago still holds true.

[ She's trying not to be a flustered schoolgirl at this point but it's so hard when your hafuri is so sweet. ]

Let me deal with Susano'o. If it can be helped, I'd rather we be able to keep a close eye on him.

Action

[nailed_navigation]

[Make that, the both of them trying hard not to blush in front of the other. Recalling Viina's kind and tender words just made his heart flutter and his palms a bit sweaty.]

I understand, I will try harder not to let myself be so easily riled up. I didn't sting you, did I?

Action

[dominatriarch]

No. Of course not.

[ If he did, she'd be lying through her teeth. And she may slightly turn her gaze away, murmuring. ]

And I didn't want anyone else to get the wrong impression of you.

[ because really, while some other gods may be crass, a hafuri talking about things like that in public might be a bit concerning to the newbies. ]

Re: Action

[nailed_navigation]

[Viina... It is things like that, that makes Kazuma fall in love with you even more. Your kind heart and thoughtfulness.]

Of course... I didn't mean to publicly talk about you in that manner. I am sorry if I dishonored you in any fashion.

I used this icon specifically because she was adorable

[dominatriarch]

[ She's just... staring. Pausing. Blinking.

And then that look just melts into the smallest fondest smile. ]

You did no such thing. But... I'd prefer that...

[ Light cough. ]

We keep such conversation out of the public eye in the future.

[ These newbies don't need to know about your doujinshi collection, Kazuma. And she'd rather keep it that way. ]

Re: I used this icon specifically because she was adorable

[nailed_navigation]

[Yay! Viina is smiling, and that is so much better then the other option of actually angering her! Besides, that smile looks rather cute on her, if he has any say on the matter.]

Of course. I will make sure not to draw anymore unpleasant and unprofessional attention to you, my goddess.

[dominatriarch]

[ Pardon her as she clears her throat. TBH, the only unprofessional attention she'd kind of accept would be his attention. ]

Really, Kazuma.

[ All this attention. Just go back to calling her Veena please. This is making her blush. Well, at least as much as she'll show. ]

A... anyway. Have you found out anything else about these newcomers?

[nailed_navigation]

[Tucking his hands behind his back, Kazuma allowed himself to assume an at ease pose as he dropped the earlier matter as well.]

Nothing quite as different from before. Though I find it quite unsettling that without proper exemplars to teach the new shikis how to behave. If you don't mind, I have already arranged a class in Lady Minerva's temple on shinki technique.

[dominatriarch]

[ Always the best strategy when it comes to Awkward Conversations with Kazuma: talk business.

He does make a good point. Apart from not having been named by their gods, they're relying on having those already in residence to teach the newcomers. It's certainly concerning. That bit about a class though... ]

Have you? When does it start?

[ Mental note to sit in. ]

[piphilologize]

Sup, Bisha? We're just appreciating your ratios.
a + b is to a as a is to b. See?

[ He links a doodle much like this in Bishamon's proportions. ]

[dominatriarch]

[ The jeopardy theme plays in the background as Bisha reconsiders what to do with her life and her choices. ]

I'm certain there are things that shouldn't be appearing in public where everyone can see.

[ And her 'ratios' are one of them. ]

[piphilologize]

[ The next image he links is a doodle with her dressed in battle attire and her lion in the background because fuck it, why not? He maps out Kuraha's proportions while he's at it. Lions have significantly fewer golden ratios. ]

I got you covered. Edit >> original.

[dominatriarch]

[ ...she's getting flashbacks to Tooya all over again. ]

You really don't have anything better to do, don't you?

[piphilologize]

Just taking 5 kiloseconds to chill between real art projects.

[dominatriarch]

Would your next art project have anything to do with stacking even more junk in public?

[piphilologize]

Nah. Painting today. Been working out the code to make a little something for my worshippers.

[dominatriarch]

[ Painting? ]

This isn't something we should be concerned over, is it?

[ She's already got Tsu to be concerned over, after all. ]

[piphilologize]

[ Yes, but Sho is a liar. ]

Bishaaaaa. Give me a break. I give a digit about MY worshippers.

I was a god before I refactored into Susano'o, you know.

[dominatriarch]

[ Mm... okay. Buuuuuut she's just gonna be watching him. For reasons. ]

I suppose that gives you more experience than most of these newcomers, despite your unorthodox approach.
Perhaps giving you the benefit of the doubt would be for the best.

[piphilologize]

My unorthodox aesthetic takes a real sense of imagination to appreciate.

The status quo is garbage. It was there and it is here. It's time for a shake up. Just watch the show.

[dominatriarch]

More than what's normally required, clearly.
Fine. I'll allow your show.
But once you get out of hand, I won't hesitate to have to restrain you again.
