It has come to my attention that recently there was a very large misunderstanding that resulted in quite a few Near Shore deaths and a number of gods and shinki being attacked by ayakashi. I would like to take this opportunity to apologize on behalf of the entirety of the Heavens for this grave mistake.

Unfortunately, there appears to have been a mix-up while delivering the chocolates and it seems that they became tainted in the process. We are currently uncertain as to whether this was the active working of someone against the Heavens or if it was simply an accident. Either way, a mistake was made and many people paid the consequences for it.

We assure you all that every effort to track down the culprits is being made and all security measures will be increased drastically from here on out to prevent any future incidents like this one.

Please feel free to direct any questions or concerns to this thread and they will be dealt with in a timely manner.

Thank you.

Your PR could use some work.

Someone slipped under your radar. Understandable. But with the frequency in which things have been happening, it's beginning to look a little suspicious, don't you think?

I'm also a bit curious as to what sort of progress you've made on why any of us are here. Or why it's possible to disappear and return again. I don't suppose you'd have an update on that, though, busy as you've been.

[godsoffortune]

Your tone could certainly use some work as well, Tsukuyomi.

I am not sure what 'frequency' you are referring to. As far as I am aware, this is the first real breach we have faced, unless you think that something that has nothing to do with Heaven was our fault as well?

As far as we've been able to confirm, there is no real solid reason as to why you are all here. We will continue looking into it, but I have no idea when we might get results.

Are there any other problems, Tsukuyomi?

I more mean everything in general. First, we're brought in against our will, with no explanation other than a shrug. Considering the circumstances, I understand that this is not normal procedure in the least. Then, someone poisons the multitude of chocolates that you've instructed unassuming gods and shinki to pass out. With, might I add, the express command not to eat them. It could have been innocent, of course, but you had to have known some would not be able to resist temptation. It seems like it's bordering on too much happening in a short amount of time.

Completely out of curiosity: how much do you know about us, Amaterasu? How much do you know about the lives we lived before this place?

If it would help to speed up proceedings on finding out who is responsible for poisoning the chocolates, by the by, I would be happy to assist with my own abilities. Just say the word.

[godsoffortune]

To be perfectly frank with you, my dear, as we have no involvement in your coming here, there is obviously nothing we can know about it. I assure you that we are continuing to look into it, but things move slowly in Heaven. Or perhaps they move quickly. Time is an anomaly that does not fall into my domain and never has.

As for the command to not eat the chocolates - that was strictly on the grounds that the chocolates were not meant for residents of the Far Shore and it would be nothing but immoral to eat them. Though I suppose that's why so many gods wound up blighted through the ordeal.

I know everything I can about you, Tsukuyomi, both past and present. And much the same goes for all who dwell within my realm - that is to say, all who live upon the Far Shore here in my homeland. Is it surprising that I would know much about the people who live where I rule?

I think you for your offer. We will certainly find some way to make use of your particular set of skills when we can.

I understand the passage of time being skewed, though considering what you've said, I'm sure you know just how much I do. However, I am not saying you're responsible for all that has happened. Whoever or whatever is, though, could be more easily discerned if you allow assistance. I can assure you, we all want us to return where we belong.

Does that explain why the ones that ate them became ill, though? Whatever affected the humans also affected us, albeit to a lesser degree.

Thank you for your consideration, dear. I'm sure you know which ability in particular I'm offering, though if you can make use of the rest, feel free.

[godsoffortune]

With all due respect, I find it easier to trust those who have been by my side for longer, rather than newly reincarnated gods of those I once knew.

As for the illness of those who ate the chocolates, it would seem natural that the response came from ingesting whatever strange ayakashi were inhabiting the chocolates.

Again, I thank you for your offer, and I would ask you kindly not to make such easily misconstrued comments on the network as well.

Completely understandable.

About those ayakashi. I would like to speak with you in private about part of that debacle, if you'll have me. I may have noticed something interesting.

However, if you would prefer to cut contact here, I understand. No hard feelings.

[godsoffortune]

Unfortunately, I am not taking any appointments at the moment. But as soon as I am, I will gladly let you know.

Please do not act like such a stranger, Tsukuyomi, it makes me feel decidedly uncomfortable.

I'll be looking forward to it!

I'm sorry to say, though, that I may as well be. As far as I know, I am not the Tsukuyomi that you're more familiar with. But, I will try my best. Wouldn't want you to be uncomfortable when you're already being such a gracious host, after all.

Zetta heartwarming to see you getting along, 23~. Are you a₁₁ or a₂₁ in this matrix?

[leggierissimo]

Aww, I didn't know you were invited to this conversation. Maybe little brother should go take a nap. Let the adults talk.

(✿´ ꒳ ` )

[piphilologize]

After our last chat, < adult is a big downgrade. Still mad you you came out the denominator?

[leggierissimo]

On the contrary, I'm much more of a prime number. Anyone can be blighted, you know. Easy enough to remove.

[piphilologize]

LOL. Didn't realize just anyone could tag you. You must be getting so zetta slow in your old age.

[leggierissimo]

And I could just as easily tag you. I'm simply saying that it's not as impressive a feat as you seem to think it is.

[piphilologize]

Looks like it's x2 play. You're It.

[leggierissimo]

Am I? I take care not to become blighted by my own fault. Who knows when the next round might be?

[piphilologize]

I'll estimate it's sooner than you'd expect. Catch you later, I don't want to subtract from my nap time.

[leggierissimo]

Think what you like.

Have a good nap~ ( ´ ▽ ` )ﾉ

[godsoffortune]

Yes, I do understand your predicament. Perhaps I should attempt to be less formal myself to make you feel more comfortable talking to me?

I look forward to getting to meet with you, Tsukuyomi. :)
