Video: The Weaver Speaks

[starfestival]

From: Orihime
Date: July 4th (evening)

[ Orihime is standing several yards in front of her small house, but the river behind her might explain why she moved away from it. Even from this distance, there is din of water swirling through the currents. She holds her device like a lady might hold a mirror to apply makeup.

More importantly, she appears to be smiling.]

I have been thoroughly surprised by the generous nature of several new gods and shinki. As it stands, our preparations will be complete in time for Tanabata, which is the 7th of this month if you were not made aware as of yet as another newcomer, and thus long before Obon as well.

In gratitude to the hands that were extended in service to the Heavens - and, if I may, humbly include myself - I wish to repay this kindness. All gods have their talents and mine is the creation of splendid divine raiments for just such a festival as Tanabata and Obon.

If you are one of the new gods or shinki and do not yet possess such, you may seek me out by the Amano river before dusk falls tomorrow and I go in turn to host the Heavens' Tanabata festivities.

I should hope you're not offering to make us clothes if you still have work to do. But as far as the rain goes, Helios drags the sun across the sky. He can help a lady get to her loved one once a year if it comes to that.

[ Probably.

[starfestival]

No, I would not take such a risk, sir. I absolutely would not have offered if there were yet more work to do that was not the physical set-up for the festival on the day.

Strange, another goddess offered something similar - to prevent the rain.

My Grandma taught me that there are two things a man must never do: First is to let a woman cry, second is to waste food. In that case, it's only natural that I extend what help I can.

The sun exists to shine for the flowers of the world, after all.

[starfestival]

Perhaps you two know each other? Celestia, her name was?

[pathofheaven]

We're acquainted. The sun knows itself, after all.

[starfestival]

Is that a saying where you come from? I've not heard it.

[pathofheaven]

No, I came up with it. We are both gods of the sun, I considered it my responsibility to at least know who she is.

How delightfully clever.
