[He have debated between using video and text for this. Until something made him decide.]

Sakura, who was Konohanasakuya here, is gone. As her now former shinki, if anyone still have business with her, I can do them in her stead if it's possible for me. Otherwise, just keep them on hold for now.

[Text. Texting so he can avoid letting people hear his voice after such a confusing morning.]

For some reason, there's also a horse in my room when I woke up. Can someone lend me some gear and help me lead it out? I don't want to leave it alone in my room.

[Ugh, he lost his god and gain a horse. This doesn't seem fair to him?! He'll figure out other things, like getting a name, later. This morning's just chaotic to his emotions.]

(OOC: He will be staying with, and later get named by, Oscar (

repinned). People are still free to offer help or anything else!)

... So I went to sleep last night, and found myself home. Went through a whole couple months, a bunch of shit happened, and then I wake up here again after it's all over. Kinda feeling jerked around a bit, but what's happened has happened.

Anyway, I've been hearing prayers from people whose relationships are in trouble lately, and if this place is going to insist I be a love goddess, then I guess I'd better do something about it. Problem is, the soulless shinki this place assigned me and I haven't been getting on at all, and considering it's been a few months since I saw him from my perspective, I don't think it'd be a good idea to try and force it.

This isn't easy to admit, but if I'm gonna do this, I need help. Would anyone be willing to help me stake out the Tokyo Museum for a few nights? There's definitely ayakashi involved, so I definitely know I shouldn't go it alone.

[ Kairi sits in the shade of a tree with the Soulless Shinki temple behind her. ]

I've given it a lot of thought... and I want to ask if there are any gods out there that don't have any shinki right now.

[ She takes another deep breath. ]

I can't talk about it too much right now, but after losing my goddess, the first person I would have gone to... he's gone as well. I spent a long time weighing my options the last time this happened - maybe too long. I want to try to be decisive this time.

The first few months I was here, I hardly had a day I wasn't busy helping my god with his prayers or training with the other shinki at my temple. I miss that activity and those bonds, but I miss the impact I made in the lives of people on the Near Shore more. I'm a shinki so I can't do that as well on my own as with a god who will see me as a partner.

If there's a god who thinks that we could work well together, I'd be happy to talk with you some more.

Date: January 14

----------------------------------------

[It hadn't taken very long for Ebisu's temple to do a quick damage assessment, both on their own temple and for them to realize that things were going wrong in other places in the Heavens. Admittedly, it was a little hard to miss, what, with the exploding volcano and rocks flying throughout the sky in the distance.]

[That's why Ebisu is showing up on the network today, looking somber from where he's seated in the same desk as his prior video appearances.]

Hello, gods and shinki of the Far Shore.

Due to the disaster which has occurred, I understand that many of you living in areas such as the West District have had damage to your temples and lands. This is a troublesome situation, there can be no mistake, especially for those of you who have others under your care.

That's why I'm offering room in my temple for any among you who might need it. We have space to spare- [Please don't ask why.] -and I'm certain it would be enough to house some of you until you can get your own temples back into shape.

Please let me or any of my shinki know if you're interested.

Thank you for your time.

So I know it's cold out right now and a lot of people need to keep warm because they don't have their own luxurious fur to do the job for them

I guess where I came from it must have been a different season or something because I've been shedding a lot lately and growing in a new coat so now I have all of this shed fur that I'm not doing anything with

It's very high quality fur and I've taken very good care of it and I'd like to give it to someone that could use it to make warm clothes for the people here that don't have fur

Please let me know if you want it and I can deliver it to you personally

Good evening. As many of you know, I teach at a renovated building in the Western District. I'm looking for someone who can help with computer and technology classes. While I can handle beginner level lessons, I'd appreciate help with any more advanced topics -- even if you are not interested in teaching, I could use someone to answer my questions, particularly on network security and programming issues.

If you're interested, please contact me.

On a personal note, I'm also interested in hiring an artist to produce a portrait from a verbal description. Details to be discussed privately. Cost is no object.

I remembered something a couple of weeks ago. I thought it was a dream at first, but I know now that it's a memory from sometime before I shuffled off this mortal coil.

I haven't been able to forget it. I see it every time I try to sleep. It's been almost three weeks now and it's still there.

I'm getting heartily sick of the damn thing. Is there any way to forget again?

So here's a question for all of you.

Say sometime in the future, a way home pops up. The stars are right, or the prayers of the world unite, or we find whatever brings us here and reverse it. Doesn't matter what, the key thing is that it won't last. You've got to decide right away. What do you do?

If you're a shinki, going home means you're dead. No more life like this that you can expect. Is it worth the gamble? What if you get stuck as a shinki in your own world, not remembering anything, no other shinki or gods? On the other hand, you stay here and you get stuck with whoever's left if your god takes off. Maybe they all do and you're off to the old gods, or unnamed. Either one's a raw deal.

Gods? You got it easy. You go back and pick up where you left off. Except you'd be leaving your shinki behind. No promise on what happens to them. Maybe they'll end up with someone okay, maybe not. Maybe even if you made an arrangement with someone who'd stay, it goes wrong. Do you just abandon them? Trust that the old gods won't be so bad?

Not saying it's going to work out this way. But it might. So what if?

[It's early in the morning when something like static almost sounds.

Then Lavi's voice comes on:]

Cardia--otherwise known as the goddess, Hel--is gone. [His voice sounds...almost emotionless, the crack in it being the only bit of emotion giving him away as if he's trying his best to hold something back.]

Nothing's left.

[Nothing. Not even Sisi is left behind. Lavi is quick to cut it off and won't respond right away.]

so
its been like a week since new year
and i havent seen anyone posting about new years resolutions yet
you know
those promises you make to yourself at the start of the year that youre definitely going to hold to
and then a week later youre lying on your bed eating chips and soda again because you almost definitely promised yourself you were going to work out more and then didnt
is that not a tradition here

if it is then tell me about your resolutions that are totally going to happen
since were past the one week honeymoon period
maybe i can give you advice on how to stick to them
or if you pay me i can be your personal resolution trainer
with motivational 80s music montages and everything
for like a month since if you can't keep it yourself past then youre fucked anyway
but you can always say you tried
even if i did most of the trying for you

anyway
resolutions
go

has anyone suddenly realized they've been saying the wrong name

[This was a very specific problem to have. Still, hearing "Ross" only for his gut reaction to be "that's not my name" over and over was something that kind of required investigation.]

I need to know

Date: January 7th

Has anyone bothered to celebrate birthdays here? The calendar here is a little bit different than the one I'm used to, [Almost feels like it even runs slower too. Weird right?] but if I got it right, mine is this month.

It would be the first time I'll have one so far away from home too.

[There was something almost kind of sad about that.]

Futaba and her temple have both gone missing. I figure there are probably people who'd want to know, but with her tendency to be as reclusive as she was, not everyone may have found out right away.

--Filtered to Yoon and Yona--
I'll be coming over. Will it be a problem if I bring Red too?

From: Kairi Date: December 29th 2016

Hi everyone - [ Wave! ] This is actually mostly a question for the shinki... but I think I want to include the gods that might remember their time as shinki as well!

As the new year approaches, a friend and I were talking about how I'd been here in the Far Shore for seven months now, and I was pretty sure- [ She gestures with a finger waggle. ] That a few of you have been here longer. The exemplar of my temple definitely has, and a few of my friends as well, but maybe a few of you I haven't met yet also have been here awhile?

If you're okay with telling me, I'm curious to know! And maybe as a New Year's thing... hmmm...

[ She clasps her hands in front of her. ] Oh, I know! Whether you're god or shinki, do you have a favorite memory from this last year? Let's remember the good times together!

kagenonadeshiko

From: Vesta
Date: December 24

[Being an old-timey Japanese person, Ayumu's unfamiliar with Christmas Eve or Christmas traditions. What she is acquainted with is New Year's and it's coming up very soon. Since her return from the dead, Ayumu's been too busy recovering from her ordeal and its fallout this month to really announce herself.

Between returning to the Shinsengumi and getting affairs in order at her own temple, Ayumu simply hasn't had the time or energy to dedicate to making all the social calls she'd like. There's something she's been thinking about doing, however, and Ayumu's running out of time to do it.

So here is a video of a very solemn and subdued looking Ayumu Yamazaki in a plum-blossom patterned kimono with her hair done up in a sleek bun. The eyepatch over her left eye is absent today, revealing the facial scarring marring her brow and the drooping lid in stark clarity. Her posture is straighter than it's been in quite some time. She appears to be seated at a kitchen table, her hands clasped neatly in front of her.

After a moment, Ayumu begins to speak quietly and evenly in the Kyoto accent she hasn't used since her first time here as a goddess.]

Hello. My name is Ayumu Yamazaki. I'm also known as Vesta and have gone by Lady Yumi on this shore in the past. I'm aware that many of you do not know me. Many of those that do are not aware that prior to my life here as a shinki, I was once a goddess. It's because of those who were once here but have long since passed on or vanished that I am speaking now.

[Ayumu bows her head briefly in a moment of silence before lifting it once more.]

On New Year's Eve, I'll be holding a candlelit vigil at my temple to honor and bid a proper farewell to those who've left us, whether it be through choice, death, or unknown forces. A new year awaits us all, one that may prove to be full of better prospects but I believe that in order to greet it fully with open arms, we must first let go of what binds us in the past. If anyone would like to do the same, you are all welcome to join me at my temple.

[Ayumu includes directions to her temple in the western district. When she's done, she bows deeply to the camera then straightens up. Just before the video cuts out, there's the sound of a very demanding meow coming from off-screen.]

[It's just a voice post because Leo had a shower idea and he's in no condition to be seen.]

A thought occurred to me. There's a lot of people in Heaven now who are from worlds that don't have things like cell phones or the internet or microwaves. I'm from one such world, so would others be interested in lessons on how to navigate a world like this one? I'm no expert, obviously, but since most of the "how to" guides and lessons you can find are aimed at people with a basic knowledge of what a computer or telephone is they're not exactly helpful. Unless you like beating your head against a wall in frustration, that is.

[Trunks rarely makes public videos--usually he's more likely to respond. He also doesn't look at all happy--but is keeping himself composed at least.]

Caireen's temple has vanished. Mai is gone.

[There's a pause, and a slow blink.]

I think she was worried this would happen at some point, as she left a note.

Back when I was human, a few months before I was taken here, I cut my hair.

[Hijikata raises a hand to sweep at the ends of it, now roughly shoulder-length.]

There were a few different reasons for it, and I won't be getting into them right now. But I forgot how damned long it takes to grow out -- haven't had it short since I was a kid.

If anyone knows any good styles for it at this length, I'm all ears. It's getting too long for the way I've been wearing it, but it's still too short to keep it how I'm used to.

...I'd say that this post feels too frivolous, but I've seen what half of the rest of you use this network for. [A confusing waste of invaluable technology, but whatever, he guesses the cat videos make Souji happy?]

That said, I should probably say something productive. As a reminder, or for anyone unaware, anyone needing instruction in practical combat skills can seek it at my shrine. Those in need of shelter or defense can come here whenever they need to, as well.

[He gives a small smile, slightly wry but surprisingly genuine.] I don't see any reason that the mortal and living should be the only ones under my protection.

clothes_make_the_man

[Usually after his morning fashion routine, can be seen out and about in the Far Shore, or at least behind his temple tending the lotus flowers in his garden. Today, however, he is nowhere to be found. This might be a cause for concern if not for the video feed that is eventually broadcast from inside his temple. There's a light meow from one of D2's cats briefly pawing at Forrest's phone as the feed clicks on, showing Forrest still dressed in his bathrobe and slippers, hair pinned up, and utterly riveted to a marathon of Say Yes to the Dress. And apparently he's just as opinionated as the various bridal entourages on the show itself, judging from the things he yells at the screen every so often. Excerpts follow.]

Oh, honey, no, listen to Randy!

That's awful! Your mom isn't getting married in this dress, you are!

Aww, don't listen to them, I think you look absolutely darling in that lace!

Oh... that's just... oh. Well, I suppose the important thing is she likes it.

I need to meet Pnina Tornai.

Date: October 29

[It is after a great deal of trial and error that a video feed pops up on the network. Zelda's grasp on modern technology is still limited at best, but this is apparently important enough to try.]

Excuse me, but would anyone happen to know what this is for?

["This" being a very summer-y hawaiian shirt currently laid out upon what appears to be her dining room table. And there will be no reprieve from it's tourist-y glow for anyone wanting it; the Princess of Hyrule does not know you can flip the camera around on a phone, so the feed is sticking right where it is on the garment as she speaks.]

It was at my temple steps this morning, but without any notes outside of being addressed to me. I am... not certain what to make of it, honestly.

[To say the least.]
