Heaven's BBS | Video (because spelling is hard when you're six)

[welcome_home]

From: Nanshe
Date: June 18

[ The video opens to Nanako sprawled on her stomach, kicking her feet in the air behind her but her expression is one of serious thought. Although she looks a little shy and uncertain about leaving a message like this, she also looks pretty determined, too. This... hadn't been something she was sure about asking her big brother, so instead she tries here. Maybe that will be easier? Or people will be less quick to guess why she might be asking... ]

Sooo.... this is heaven, right? And where people go after they die?

If someone died a while ago, can you find them here somewhere?

[ She blinks in surprise. ]

It's not?

[chickshades]

None of our gods died to get here. I don't think. And mine's not even actually human.

[welcome_home]

But gods are supposed to be in heaven, aren't they?

[chickshades]

I guess? This whole thing's confusing. They shouldn't be pulling people from their homes to be gods here.

[ Especially little six year old girls. What is her family thinking right now? She was essentially kidnapped! ]

Where are the actual gods who're supposed to be doing these jobs, anyway?

[welcome_home]

[ Good question! ]

Maybe they were tired?

[chickshades]

[ And such a simple answer. ]

Ah...maybe? Izuminokami-san does nap a lot.

[welcome_home]

I mean... Nanshe is the god I'm here to help and she's really old, I think. She's been a god a long time, wouldn't that get tiring?

[chickshades]

I guess, yeah. But that just means you shouldn't overwork yourself!

[welcome_home]

[ Nanako giggles at that. ] Maybe not. But gods have a lot to do anyway, right?

[ There's a lot of people out there. ]

[chickshades]

Yeah. And that's why you have a shinki. Don't let them sit around! They should be out there with you. And protecting you!

[welcome_home]

Sumio doesn't sit around! He helps me a lot. Homura helps too, even if she is Souji-niichan's shinki.

[chickshades]

Good. Is Souji your bother?

[welcome_home]

[ A bright smile and a nod. ] Yeah, he's my big brother! He was here before I got here.

[chickshades]

[ Okay, that makes him feel a little better about her being here. At least she has her brother, and he's not a shinki. ]

Good. If anyone gives you any trouble, you go to him!

[welcome_home]

[ Nanako giggles and ducks her head. ]

I will. He always makes me feel safer, and his shinki is really nice. But so is Sumio. Aaaaand. Well. Most people I've met here have been really nice so far!
