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 don't know if there are regional muffins!

But yes, I make my own. I bake, though I'm a better cook, I think?

Does it matter which you're better at, so long as you're happy doing it?

[Also, he'd offer himself as taste tester if it wasn't weird. In fact, that might not stop him in a few more texts...]

You got a point! And I do like doing both. I just cook more often.

[He would not be the first...]

Most people have to do it three times a day, so that's not surprising! You could bake for all three meals, though, that might be a good way to practice.

I could! It might be a bit much though, especially if I was making a lot of different things.

Are you afraid of making too much? Then it's good you warned everyone ahead of time, they'll be ready to take the experiments off your hands!

Ahaha! Well if I do that, I guess I'll be making it for the borderline practice session first!

How many have been interested in that? It sounds like such a good idea, Zeno almost wishes to be a shinki for it

There's been a lot of people I think! Well over a dozen! I'm really surprised and I'm really happy too!

They do throw all the shinki right into the deep end here, yeah?

[Gods who had powers before, at least they have some idea of what to do with them...]

Yeah, we really are. No memories, no reassurances...we have to trust blindly.

[And powers are kind of stumbled on.]

Trusting blindly is dangerous, too. Especially with all these gods who were never gods before! But miss is so confident and happy. Zeno hopes it stays that way. [He hasn't even stumbled on his yet.]

True! We take a HUGE risk right from the start.

But in any case! I want to stay confident and happy too! And I want Zeno-chan to be happy and confident too!

[Maybe it's for the best? Maybe.]

[...what...did you call him...]

Oh no... should Zeno learn how to fight, then, too? It's something Zeno thinks about every so often.

[N...othing?]

If you want! Maybe. It couldn't hurt if you knew defence at least?

Zeno has never needed to know it before!! So it's impossible to know where to start... though Zeno doesn't ever want to hold a weapon. No one likes the thought of hurting others, do they?

There's a lot to choose from! I think there are some martial arts that might work!

I don't like to hurt others, but I think there might be some people who do. Bullies, you know?

Zeno could live a hundred years and never figure out what people like about that... But miss has the right idea. Standing too hard on pacifism might backfire on you... it might trap you someday.

I feel both mad and sorry at them.

But thank you Zeno-chan. I wouldn't want you to be trapped by that. Maybe you could ask about that on a network post sometime?

Does that work? Asking around like that...

[Also... Zeno-chan again...]

It can't hurt!

[Is it a bad thing...]

How do people decide which questions to pass along like that, Zeno wonders... there's a lot of questions in Zeno's head...

[...it is a thing... it is probably even a thing he deserves...]

I dunno! I think they just...ask around?

[Well...he's cute to her at least so...]

[Hmm... he's kept his own counsel for so long, though! He's not sure he knows how to ask for that kind of help.]

It's a good idea. Zeno will wish you continued luck with your practice!

[Well that's okay. He can be couched! Maybe.]

Thank you! Take care of yourself Zeno-chan~
