If you say "oh my god" as a shinki, are you referring to your own god? Do they feel it every time you say that?

If you say it as a god, who are you referring to? Are you talking about a god you really like?

Also, is it normal for shinki to refer to their god by their god name or their whatever name?

What if your shinki form was a toilet or a trash receptacle? What would you do then?

If a god were to pray, who would it be to? Would it be like someone who idolizes a J-Pop star?

These are the important questions.

I turn into a shield.

Just Takuma is fine! It's really nice to meet you, Nephenee. Or since you're a god, should I call you Lady Nephenee?

I can meet you anywhere you would like, if outside of your temple is easiest, I don't mind. I just need to know where it is.

[katanas_and_tea]

At least that's a combat tool! That's good for what we are supposed to help with.

I think my god was a little disappointed in what I turn into, but he didn't verbally complain or even express it. I could just feel it.

Oh well!

N-naw, ya don't gotta do that! N-Nephenee' jus' fine, Ah'm jus' a country girl. Don't need no fancy stuff.

Uh, lemme scribble ya a map real fast.

This good?

[ Sorry, Takuma, you somehow made him chuckle a bit at the words you are spewing. He would never really use those kinds of words since i was out of character for him, but he did get what the blond meant so that was a funny thought. ]

Unfortunately, I have not thought about such sayings, seeing that I do not shout "oh my god," aloud often if at all.

Though, I do find it rather peculiar that you would be asking such questions. Does it really matter and what is and "J-Pop, star?"

[ In reality he may have had an idea but it didn't mean he couldn't question it at the same time. ]

[katanas_and_tea]

Nephenee then.

[He leans in closer to the screen to peer at the map]

That looks good to me. I think I can find it well enough.

I'll pick out a really good doughnut shop for us. Your first one has to be top notch.

See you bright and early first thing in the morning?

Re: video;

[katanas_and_tea]

I guess since you don't have a god, you don't have to worry about the question. But! If you could pick any god for "oh my god" to signify, who would it be? It can be any god.

These questions are important. Especially the one about the toilet. That would be so unfortunate.

And a j-pop star is an idol that sings and dances to entertain people. I picked up a bunch of magazines so I could learn about what's relevant in Japan. It's important to stay up to date with pop culture. And I think my god doesn't care about such things, so I have to do it for him.

[misterfrumpyface]

These are hardly important questions.

[timeshields]

Are you upset about your vessel?

[redotiertwo]

wow like half of these are actual questions and the other half are incomprehensible 3am drunk texts or philosoraptor memes
good job dude

just to pick on one thing here
if your shinki form was a toilet or trash receptacle what you would do is ask your god to revoke your name for both your sakes and find another god who doesnt turn you into one of those
this is ignoring the fact im pretty sure shinki are generally
you know
weapons
or at least portable

[priforprince]

Do you truly have nothing more pressing to do?

[katanas_and_tea]

I'm not. Somehow, I think my vessel form is fitting. I don't exactly know why it's fitting, I just have a feeling that it is.

I turn into a chasen.

Video;

[katanas_and_tea]

Oh but they are. There are too many people in the world for them to not be important to a great number of them.

[katanas_and_tea]

I don't know what philosoraptor memes are, but thank you!

I'm new to this whole shinki thing, so I wasn't aware that there are certain kinds of objects that may not be on the list.

Anything is a weapon if you try hard enough. My vessel form is hardly a weapon, but I'm sure it could be in the right hands.

What if the god revokes the name and gives them a new one. Would the result still be the same?

This is the most pressing matter to attend to right now.

But in short: No! （＾ν＾）☆

[priforprince]

Don't use facial expressions in written communication.

[katanas_and_tea]

Aw. But why not? Emoji are the perfect way to express emotions through written communication. Sure words can do the job just fine, but emoji lend it that certain flare. (≧∀≦)

[priforprince]

They're the lazy last resort of the incoherent.

Then again, I suppose that makes them a fitting embellissement for this topic.

[ Someone's caterers are late, okay. ]

[katanas_and_tea]

I disagree. I think there is art in selecting the perfect emoji for a specific kind of conversation. Of course they are inappropriate for grave news or serious topics, but when speaking with someone casually, they add a little life! They can be fun and lighthearted!

You should definitely give it a try. It's a new form of socializing. Or so I have read! (*'ω'*)

[priforprince]

I prefer socializing on my own terms.

Video;

[misterfrumpyface]

There are too many people in the world with too much idle time to waste.

[A sigh.]

Although I suppose the fact that I'm replying to this at all makes me one of them...

[katanas_and_tea]

That means I should feel lucky that you decided on your own terms to socialize with me! Perhaps.

[priforprince]

It's more than you deserve.

[ at least you realize this

still, soon as she's home, your doll's going in the idiot box ]

Re: Video;

[katanas_and_tea]

Hahaha! There's nothing wrong with having idle time. It just means that there's a moment of peace in your life that you can do whatever you want to with.

[katanas_and_tea]

oh I am sure it is!

You must be one of the many deities around here.

[Takuma is definitely unimpressed with the ego, but he'll just roll with it and have some fun]
