Hey everyone! This might sound a little out there, and I'm still new, but! I couldn't keep this to myself, not when it sounds like so much fun!

There's this place that does something called karaoke? Which from what get is where you go to a place, and they have all these songs that you can sing! And you can sing with other people too. Maybe you know the song, maybe you don't, but I think it's half the fun!

They do group discounts too! And they have liquor and food and stuff to help people keep singing.

So if we were to book a couple of nights from now...who'd want to come?!

Comments

[shockshot]

Yeah, it'd be okay! You wouldn't be in the way at all!

[thirdbeauty]

Okay, then. I guess I could come!

Oh, and I'm Lightning-sama's shinki, Natsuru Senou. I don't think we've met. I'm still pretty new here...

[shockshot]

Ah! Lightning, I've met her, she was at the bakery! She was quite kind, even if I was being kind of weird.

Or really weird. But I'm new too, I only showed up like...barely a week ago? How about you?

[thirdbeauty]

Oh, you came to the shop? So you probably saw me! I was the girl advertising outside.

It's only been about a week for me too. We must have arrived at the same time.

[shockshot]

Yeah I did! I'm sorry I should have said hi!

I guess we did come at the same time then. How strange!

[thirdbeauty]

It's okay! I might have been busy talking to another customer.

It sounds like people always come in groups. I've met a bunch of other people who arrived on the same day. Both shinki and gods.

[shockshot]

Yeah, that might have been it! I think I remember a super cute uniform...?

But really? Groups? That's so weird. Do you think they leave in groups too? I've heard of various gods and shinki they've gone missing lately.

[thirdbeauty]

Oh, Lightning-sama picked the outfit! It was really cute, though, wasn't it? I'm pretty sure that wasn't the first time I've worn an outfit like that.

[She'd been embarrassed at first, but enough compliments later made her a little proud of how well it worked as an advertising tactic. Despite a few... unsavory comments from one man.]

The weird thing is that we all came at the same time, but we weren't even all in the same place. We just got rushed out into the town to help.

I heard the same thing about people leaving too. Maybe that's just how it works here?

[shockshot]

Aaaah, then Lightning has wonderful taste! Maybe you should wear things like that more often, if you want to?

But...yeah, that's true. I had a little time with my god before-otherwise it would have been kind of strange but...still.

It's like we're all on a stage. People come from stage left, go to stage right, you know? Kind of a weird thing to say but...still.

[thirdbeauty]

It might be a little too costumey to wear out on a normal day! I don't normally keep my hair in twintails like that, either. But maybe if I can work at the shop again they'll let me keep wearing it. And I have plenty of normal clothes that are really cute too.

Anyway, I think I get what you mean. It seems kind of strange, but if that's just how things work here...

[shockshot]

Okay! Maybe you will, maybe you won't, but either way I'm sure you'll look nice!

Yeah...I guess the afterlife is kind of strange, isn't it?

[thirdbeauty]

[Oh gosh, this girl is too sweet. Masaki can't see it, but Natsuru's blushing so much right now.]

Oh, thank you!

It kind of is! It's not too bad, though, when there's not dangerous things happening. Just takes some getting used to.

[shockshot]

[Good thing she can't, or she might say something doofy.]

Welcome!

Yeah, it's not too bad at all. I like my room at the temple-it's really wonderful. And there's so much to see and do! It's fun when there's no danger!

[thirdbeauty]

The temple here is really nice too! I can't believe I live in a place like this now.

[shockshot]

It's kind of amazing, right? I guess that makes us super lucky!

[thirdbeauty]

I guess, yeah!

Which temple do you live in? Is it okay to ask?

[This is the first time she's had this sort of conversation with someone over the BBS...]

[shockshot]

Yeah, it's always okay to ask! I live in Tezcatlipoca's temple!

[She's still learning the particulars but HEY. She's pretty sure it's all right to let people know...since she's been saying she lives with Tezcatlipoca, her god since the start...]

[thirdbeauty]

Tezcatlipoca? I don't think I've met them yet.

Lightning-sama's god name is Osiris, so that's the temple I live in.

[shockshot]

I think he's new, like me! He likes to go by Dio.

What's it like in Osiris' temple? Is it nice? If you don't mind me asking.

[thirdbeauty]

It's really nice! It's like a palace, so it can be kind of intimidating at first. And we're not supposed to go in the catacombs, so I don't know what those are like. But the actual rooms in the palace are nice, and it always reminds me of a mansion on an island or something.

[shockshot]

Oh, a palace! That's really cool though...having a place you can't go is...well, I might want to look anyway!

Too curious for my own good, I guess. But a mansion on an island...it sounds super luxurious.

[thirdbeauty]

I think it's pretty dangerous. The catacombs, I mean. I definitely wouldn't want to go in there alone.

Anyway, I don't really know if it's any more luxurious than any other temple! I'm still learning a lot about this place.

[shockshot]

Guess it wouldn't be good to go alone.

But yeah, I guess we'll have to see! Maybe you'll get to see other temples as you get to know people.
