Posted: June 4th
From: Hachiman
[The video feed shows a rather spartan room in what appears to be a simple, old-fashioned Japanese building -- dark-stained wood framing, tatami with a hint of green left in the grass, a shoji screen that's been pushed open to reveal part of the gardens. Hijikata sits in the middle of the screen, dressed in a plain black yukata with a simple crest embroidered into the shoulders. Those familiar with Shinto mythology might recognize it as Hachiman's, though it's common enough to have been used for a number of different groups and households, including Hijikata's own in life.]
This is Hijikata Toshizou, the current incarnation of Hachiman. I apologize if any of this has already been said on the BBS. I'm still not as accustomed to this sort of technology as I'd like to be, so I'm sure I've missed a number of previous discussions. That said, I have a couple of open announcements.
Regarding the recent incident at a festival on the Near Shore:
It strikes me that the creatures we fought there were, in a sense, not unlike many of us. Souls taken from their proper time and place, and brought here. It doesn't seem beyond the realm of possibility, or even likelihood, that the incident had a connection to whatever force disposed of our predecessors and has been bringing us here to replace them.
[His expression, already serious, hardens into something outright murderous for a moment.]
If that's true, then on the off-chance that whoever is behind it monitors this network, I want them aware that my opposition to them is now a personal matter.
[He pauses, calming himself a little.]
I'd also like to discuss more generally the concerns that have come up in recent weeks and months about the treatment of shinki. If a shinki has no power to reject an unwanted bond with a god they never chose, then it seems to me that gods are going to need to be responsible for policing each other's behavior towards their shinki. Anyone interested in being part of such an effort should discuss the matter with me. I'm especially interested in hearing from shinki about what sort of systems it would be helpful for them to have in place.
That will be all, for the time being.
[[OOC: tl;dr of what's behind the cut: Hijikata is pissed about his theory about the zombie incident, and interested in brainstorming about forming some kind of Shinki Defense Squad with any other gods who think the shinki situation is pretty BS, hit him up!]]

It was far stronger than any ayakashi I've encountered, including the ones during Susano'o's rebellion. It seemed to be able to make parts of its body that were under attack intangible, though not reliably enough to be impossible to land a hit on.
Didn't bleed, though. Let out this dark cloud that hung in the air, smelling like death. And even that didn't seem to bother it all that much.
no subject
I haven't heard of anything like that before.
no subject
I'd have mistaken it for human at first, except for the way it felt to be around it. But it had the most disquieting smile, that never moved even when it spoke...
I really don't know what to tell you it was, but it sure as Hell wasn't anything good. For any of us.
no subject
It doesn't sound good. I've never heard of anything like that back home either.
I wonder if Bishamonten would know more about a creature like that. She's native to this world and seems like she's been around a long time.
no subject
It's nothing like I've seen at home, either. Talking to Bishamon might be worth something, though. She seems to have a good head on her shoulders, more often than not.
no subject
I'll ask her next time I run into her.
no subject
Let me know if she's got anything interesting to say about it.

Keep me informed of anything I can do to help you in return.
