Ok, two things. Kind of related, kind of not, but I didn't want to post twice; that seems like kind of a waste of space.

One, are there any shinki that want to practice borderlines together? We could do it at one of the unused temples on the Far Shore.

Two, and I'm being serious about this! Completely!

What's your favourite kind of muffin?

Edit: Since so many people are interested, we'll be meeting at the Sand temple on the 25th! Directions can be found below, as well as a photo!

If you can, PLEASE BRING 1 bottle of HOLY WATER just in case!

I'd be interested in practicing.

[And he's going to see if he can get away with ignoring the second question.]

[shockshot]

Great! I'd like that too.

You don't like muffins Erk?

[Just curious.]

[toremainbehind]

I'd be happy to practice with you.

As for the second question, is there a reason why you're asking?

text;

[shockshot]

Wonderful! Thank you very much.

I'm asking because I'm making some as a thank you. They said 'just any' will do. But I want to pick a good flavour, and I can't decide which.

[secrowtary]

I'd like to practice with you as well. Also, I'm glad that someone is taking their duties seriously.

[Hibiki...]

Double chocolate, I'd say.

[shockshot]

Great! I like to think that this will help all of us, down the line.

Double chocolate? I'll write that down! Thanks for telling me.

I'd love to practice border lines!

And blue berry muffins! With lots of sugar on top!

[shockshot]

Great! I'll put you on the list!

For the sugar, do you like the sugar baked onto the top, or do you like to sprinkle it after?

[eternalshield]

Zeno is not a shinki and Zeno doesn't know what a muffin is.

Zeno is going to need a list of "Things Zeno Doesn't Know What They Are."

[shockshot]

I guess you could be a target practice for the shinki, but that's not very nice at all...

But I can show you what a muffin is! It's a baked good, and it's delicious! If you like sweets that is!

[She has to do a little fiddling around but there. that picture should have attached.]

Do you see the photo?

[sleight_of_hand]

What's a borderline?

[ Yeah... guess who's still hanging around and has no idea what he's doing? This guy! ]

I don't remember having muffins, so I guess I can't answer that one.

[shockshot]

Oh...I guess you wouldn't have been taught that. Shinki are able to do something called a Borderline; it basically draws a line between you and those you don't want crossing it.

Usually ayakashi, but it works for other things too.

I guess you'll have to have a few muffins sometime and let me know?

[redotiertwo]

fuck right i need to learn those too
i am down for this plan thats something ive been meaning to get on
i dont actually know you or anything but you know who asks online if they dont want random stray stranger danger replies right

also apple and cinnamon muffins are the shit i dont even care what the context of that question is

[shockshot]

Too? What else have you been planning?

I'm still getting to know everyone, if it helps? So nice to meet you! Yukine-san might be your best bet for starting you off though, or Kazuma-san. They're veterans to this sort of thing.

And I've no idea what you mean about stranger danger replies, aha

But I was thinking of making apple cinnamon! Great minds think alike?

[twiceinhabited]

I'm interested in practicing borderlines as well.

And I'm not sure what kind of muffins I like.

[Text]

[shockshot]

Great! I'll put you on the list then!

And I guess we'll have to put you on the 'needs to try muffins' list too. Unless you don't like sweets?

are you gonna be making muffins!

text

[shockshot]

Yes? I'm trying to figure out what to make!

[miraculo]

I'm not a shinki, but I'll gladly offer things to defend against, if needed! Oh-- and I also found a book of old songs a shinki can learn to defend or attack. From my understanding, you have to practice them a lot to be more effective, but they still should be useful!

[shockshot]

That's a good idea! I'll keep that in mind-it might help a little with the motivation. But maybe we can use tiny ayakashi for practice as well. Maybe with some holy water on the side.

But really? Songs? That'd be great to learn! Thank you so much for the offering! We have time to learn I'm sure.

[yamazilla]

I will gladly attend this lesson.

Ah, and I do not have any favorite muffin. All of them are delicious.

[shockshot]

Great!

And you're a person after my own heart~! It makes it hard to figure out which one to make.

From: Barry Goodman

[very_goodman]

Sure, I could always use the practice.

And if you're bringin' snacks, can't go wrong with chocolate chip muffins.

[shockshot]

Great! I'll put you on the list!

I might be, but no promises! But thanks for the idea~!

From: Prvt Donut

[glazedonutholes]

Do you think you have room for one more?

[shockshot]

Always! I think we might have to pair off and do this in groups and everything. But I think it'll be fun too!

[lilys_poise]

Chocolate chip!
No wait.
Blueberry!
Or pumpkin. Does pumpkin count?
And can I practice with you too?

[shockshot]

Pumpkin always counts! And for sure, you can practice with me!

[ephydriade]

... i'd be interested in practicing.

[ after a moment, he sends a second part ]

... mackerel muffins. [ h a r u ... ]

text

[shockshot]

Then you're welcome to join us!

....

...I've never heard of mackerel muffins...

[nailed_navigation]

Oh? It's nice to see others taking my classes further. If you don't mind, I would like to watch as well?

[shockshot]

Ah-

[Is that Kazuma? That's Kazuma! He's the only one that's been conducting shinki classes. Give her a moment.]

Oh, yes, you are most welcome to come! Please come if you can!

From: Ichiru

[forsakens]

Still a busy body aren't you, Masaki?

I would not mind practicing. I'm rather new here so any assistance will be appreciated.

I'm afraid I don't think I have a particular muffin flavor that I like.

[shockshot]

Busy for sure, a busy body? Who knows!

But sure. If I don't teach you, Yukine or Kazuma are the veterans. They know what they're doing.

Is there any flavors you'd like to try then?

texty from 宗介

[takenwithhim]

[Well, he hadn't said no after all. Seeing her actually making the post pushes the stone from balancing to decision. Though he's still got his own opinions and caveats, since he's Sousuke.]

All right. I'll be there.

What do we need holy water for?

[This is definitely a raised eyebrow moment.]

You're not planning on blighting gods or finding an ayakashi are you...?

[Because yes, sweet muffin-making Masaki is going to be stinging gods and inviting monsters in for borderline practice. Totally Sousuke's thought process (not).]

[shockshot]

[Ah, friend! He's Sousuke and he's going to do it!]

Heh, I thought about getting a small one, but I thought that it would be too dangerous. No, it's going to be water balloons and water guns instead. We can always get water from our temples, so it's free!

But I'm glad you're coming. Thank you for giving this a chance.

From: Nyanta

[dappercat]

A group practice is a great idea and I'd like to join if there's still space. Always best to be purrpared for anything.

As fur favorite muffin, I have no preference but I'm happy to try whatever's available.

[Yes, this particular Shinki is rather accustomed to mix cat puns in his speech even in text.]

[shockshot]

I think so? There really isn't a limit, not really.

There might be a few different kinds for you to try at this rate. There's been a lot of great suggestions!

[She's kind of given up, she's making muffins. At least he's not talking about apple cinnamon hive minds.]
