Heaven's BBS | Video
From: The Medicine Seller
Posted: June 19th
[The camera shows a view of what appears to be one of the old, abandoned shrines that litter certain areas of the Far Shore. The post comes in the evening, as shown by the golden, slanting quality of the light filtering in through the trees.]
[The Medicine Seller is sitting on the roots of an old tree near an abandoned torii gate, with his legs politely crossed and his hands folded in his lap. His expression betrays nothing at all -- there's no hint of his usual small, secretive smile, but there's no fear, either, or sadness, or anger. There's just... nothing.]
I am afraid it would seem... that Hyacinthus, known to some as "Donut", no longer walks among us.
[One slim hand rises to brush against his sternum through the layers of clothes that he wears, against the spot where his name was before.]
And I am without a name.
[Which does put him in a position he hasn't been in before, until this point:]
[He has a choice, perhaps.]
I wish, if possible, to serve a god who hunts often for Ayakashi. If any such god should wish to name me before the Heavens choose on my behalf... the matter can be discussed.
[He bows politely to the camera, before the feed cuts out.]

no subject
[Honestly, a lot of the more crucial questions feel like ground that's already been covered. But there's something in his nature that always wants to poke at any loose ends, to understand more completely.]
...What do you want a shinki to be?
no subject
...I think I'd have to say a partner. I know the expectation here is for gods to act as a shinki's superior, but I have a problem thinking of myself as inherently above anyone. It takes both a god and a shinki to properly defeat an ayakashi, as I understand, so it makes much more sense to me to think of us as equals.
