Good afternoon, everyone. Please excuse my change of name: this is Cho Hakkai.

I appear to have reappeared. Although I don't want to give undue hope to anyone who's recently lost a god or shinki, I'd like to announce that my classes will be continuing as usual.

To those who were living upstairs at the school the past few days, I expect you to help me clean up the mess. You know who you are.

[There are animal cracker crumbs everywhere.

And apart from that he's just not going to mention the events of last few days. At least he wasn't an actual child, but....]

Does anyone have an idea what might have caused it? I'm certain I felt something in the air for a few hours before it happened.

[That curt answer is followed up with a private message:]

Oi, are you okay with that being in a public thread?

It's not something that hasn't been said publicly on the network before.

Why would I not be okay with saying it in an open thread?

[ok fine, he’s got a point.]

That’s true but


It’s not good to bring up gods dying.

Is it bad luck?

No, I know what you mean. It's not something that's pleasant to discuss, but considering the ongoing situation, it's hard to avoid.

[Hakkai-san, pls. It’s not a joking matter…]

I guess so.

I just don’t like it.
I get this bad feeling about Loki or the guy calling me out on the BBS reading that and getting some stupid idea in their heads.

But I guess I can’t stop everyone from saying whatever on the BBS though.

Depending on the person, it may discourage anything foolish to know that older gods return, whether it's as children or not.

Not all of the newer gods seem to, after all.

I really hope you're right.

And new gods are weird. Of course they don't come back like normal.

[A pause.]

Same with shinki.

It's weird. But it's nice you're back, Hakkai-san.


Hakkai-sama.

I hope I'm right, too. The last thing we need is more trouble between the new and old gods and shinki.

Please, there's no need to change the way you address me.

Thanks. It’d be a pain to change now, honestly.

Anyway, good luck with finding who was behind all this. I don’t know if I’ll hear anything useful, but if I do I’ll let you know.

It would be hard for me to get used to!

Thank you, Yukine. I'll let you know if I hear anything, as well.
