Uhm... Dust? Has anyone seen him today?

[ It's Kairi's voice coming out of a feline-vulpine-ish face. She's more shocked and confused than anything. ]

Oh I wish Kaden were still here... or Nyanta...

[ She doesn't remember that there were talking anthropomorphic creatures from her world, but she's been friends with them here long enough that it's more her becoming one that's the weird bit. She never saw Sora change appearances when going between worlds either. ]

Did I even get this to turn on? I'm missing a-- Well, my hand is different, so this is pretty difficult. Can anyone hear me?

[ The video starts with the relaxing and refreshing (oh how refreshing it is) view of the evening Hawaiian beach. A moment after Caster comes into the picture- clad in gaudy Hawaiian shirt, hair let loose like usual. There might be a glimpse of few beer cans around, well- vacations right? ]

Yo! Nothing like vacations to finally bring an issue up, eh? See- it seems that there’s been plenty of “mistaken identity” cases recently. Once, twice it might happen, but any more times and some people might find it annoying.

[ That’s where Caster drags into picture Berserker. And since he is also clad in a Hawaiian shirt (as opposed to usual spiky armor), with his mullet let loose, the resemblance between the two is now incredibly more uncanny. Of course few “spot the difference” make it easier to tell them apart. Berserker’s red face tattoos for one. Caster’s hair appears to be a shade lighter. Not to mention Berserker seems to be kind of bulkier build. Still, they could be twins. ]

See, my fellow here, Berserker, he finds it very annoying. [ Emphasis on "very" ]

Just to remember: He’s not exactly me. I’m not exactly him! It’s really rude to mix people up. [ Caster is too amused to sound like he’s truly chastising anyone. ]

Rude and foolish. [ Berserker crosses his arms over his chest. Even in his ridiculous shirt, he’s still surly as ever. ] Now you’ve seen us together, you can stop confusing us.

[ His lip curls back to show sharp teeth, a strange smile. ]

We’re not twins...I’m feeling generous today. Ask us anything, just say which one you’re asking.

[ Nothing like volunteering someone for questioning! ]

There seems to be a lot of celebrations going on for different things in this place and the other. If anyone has a calendar with them marked on I would appreciate it.

That being said, what celebrations here do people enjoy the most? It would be good to have an idea of what to look forwards to. Or what to avoid.

Also, will be sparring for the foreseeable future near the training grounds. If anyone wishes to join in, feel free to or ask about it here.

[ The video shakes a bit as Caster figures out how to set the phone in a way to catch the view he wants it to show. The room is dimly lit, and those who were in the training room in Caster's temple might recognize the location. Caster is placing three swords wrapped in cloth on the table.

He's oddly serious for him, not even a hint of a smile showing on the corner of his lips. ]

Hey, it's been a while~ Things been crazy lately, so I wasn't able to keep in touch. [ When he's done, he takes a cigarette from a pouch attached to his belt- it's his usual druid outfit, though he had forgone the cape this time. No need for a hood under the roof. He lits it with a rune written quickly in the air and takes a drag before speaking. ]

Some of you may know me. If you don't, then let me allow to introduce myself. One of the "new" gods in the Far Shore, Cú Chulainn- [ There it is, a smile, although a crooked one and disappearing quickly. There is a temptation to leave it as it is. Like Iskandar, drop the class-name entirely and be open that his god-name is the same as his true name. But perhaps, not this time- old habits die hard. ] Or just Caster for short.

I've been traveling all across Ireland in the past month. Sometimes alone, sometimes with a company. I also made contact with the local gods- not sure if it's a common knowledge but they are still out there. [ Another drag of the cigarette but he changes his mind and crushes it, letting it disappear in a sudden burst of flame ] None of the gods that are here are present in Tír na nÓg. Not that they're concerned much. What is a decade for a god, maybe they just went away on business or want some space - they said.

[ You know, that makes sense. A decade is a small amount of time if you were active for over 2000 years. It's like someone taking vacations for a month or two for mortals. ]

Caireen- there was a strong woman who carried the mantle of that name here, she left few months ago. However, the "original" Caireen has not yet reappeared in Ireland. What does it mean, I do not know. It might not sound too hopeful for those of you who wish to return home, but remember this- those gods are not concerned about their brethren disappearing for some time, because eventually, they will return.

[ So, everyone returns home? Possibly?? Maybe weird things happening here, with all those mismatched gods happened earlier too. Happened somewhere else. Alas, that cannot be said for sure without reaching to other pantheons. Time for a topic change-- back to the swords ]

I've brought three gains from my travels, and one loss. And if you think it's imbalanced you're right. The loss is large.
( [ooc: follow here for fieldtrip results, +3 swords, -1 friend] )

And oh, Ginia? Come by my temple when you got time, I have something for you- yours hands only.

[There's a muffled sound of Oscar trying to get something to do a thing, only his hands visible for a moment before he sighs and adjusts the phone so it's recording properly. He's standing in front of a large span of land, sheep and some horses visible behind him.

He sort of. Awkwardly waves at the camera before rubbing at his neck.]

Uh. Hi. Ignore the name on the top of this, it's Oscar, not Lugh, I just can't figure out how to change it...anyway! I, um, got here last month and my...temple? Is basically a small farm. There's chickens and a stock pond and horses and you can see the sheep back there...

[He gestures behind him.]

...and there's space for me to start growing things next month. I can handle it for now, but come spring and summer I...may need some help? If anyone wants to help? I don't have any shinki yet, so it's really just me here for now.

[And that's incredibly lonely. Not that he's saying anything.]

There's not a newspaper to put a help wanted ad in or anything, so...I figured this would work? I can't exactly pray for help when I'm a god, y'know?

[He chuckles, it peters out because oh god this is awkward, and then he just shrugs.]

Yeah. Anyway. I can pay people in food or wool or whatever? So. Yeah.

May the record forever show the true nature of Caster, Archer, and Lancer.♥

[Four videos and another text message go up in rapid succession.]

[Video 1]
[Ginia offers a smile and a small wave before she begins signing. Her signs are smooth and clear, a measured speed for clarity. She's filming in her temple, the large den her backdrop.]

Hello, my name is Ginia. Awhile ago, I spoke to Lavi about offering sign language practice to his students, but was unable to reach out to his students due to life circumstances.

I thought I would ask now if any of his current students would like tutoring or someone to practice with. I'm also happy to help anyone that would like to learn sign language. We can work individually or in a group setting, whatever people would prefer.

Feel free to comment here or message me at [IC contact] any time. Thank you for your time.

[In the background of her video, as Ginia signs her message, Lancer enters with a full laundry basket. And a bucket of water? He sets the bucket down, sits on the couch, and begins folding the laundry. Or at least he attempts too. Never has someone struggled so much with folding shirts into neat squares. As he sets the folded clothes aside on the couch, one of the temple's large white dogs wanders in, climbs onto the couch, and flops on all of Lancer's work.]

[Video 2]
[Upon reviewing the video and realizing the event in the background, Ginia decides to film a second video. Can't embarrass her fellow shinki after all.]

[The setup is similar, though this time the background is the kitchen. As Ginia records, Archer walks into view and sets some treats on the floor. A large white dog wearing a Hawaiian shirt sits by the treats. This continues until there are four white dogs lined up in the background, all wearing different Hawaiian shirts. Once the last dog - a small, wiggly puppy - is in place, Archer drops a pair of sunglasses on the first dog, winks at the camera, and walks out.]

[Video 3]
[Dammit Archer!]

[The third video in the same big common area as the first. While the events in the background of previous two could have been accidents, at this point it’s clear the men in the background are doing it on purpose. Lancer is lying on the floor, arms spread out, and Archer and Caster are busy laying a pile of big white dogs on top of him. The first one doesn't protest, the second wags his tail excitedly, the third one is *unsure* but goes along anyway. There is also a small pupper that on her own decides to sit on Lancer's ankle. Caster is laughing and commenting but Archer looks at this masterpiece with critical eye - something is missing, something crucial. With sudden and strong pat on Caster's back, he sends him flying with a loud "geh" right on top of that pile.

There, perfect.]

[Ginia doesn't even try to record a message. A hand covers her face, shoulders shaking with laughter.]

[Video 4]
[There's no point trying anymore. Ginia gives the camera an exasperated eye roll. In the background, the men have stacked on each other like a totem pole: Lancer as the base, Archer on his shoulders, and Caster on top shouting directions as the tower of tall trolls lumbers toward Ginia.

Ginia reaches to the side and pulls out a large, brightly colored plastic gun and begins to unload foam darts on them, hitting each one squarely in the face a few times. As they stagger and try to retreat, drawn by the noise and falling darts, the puppy and one of the larger dogs begun to run around their feet, tripping Lancer and toppling all three to the ground.

Shouldering the gun, Ginia turns back to the camera and winks.]

[Text]
If anyone is interested in learning sign language, or knows sign language and would like someone to practice with, I'm willing to teach or provide practice sessions. These can be individual or group-based, whatever people would prefer.

Feel free to comment here or message me at [IC contact] any time.

[ Yes, this post is a marvel of technology, being screened AWAY from a certain person. How did Caster managed that feat? It's simple, he asked someone more technologically inclined, aka his Exemplar, to make sure that it really is screened away from her ]

Hey, just wanted to drop that here, but remember Ginia? That cool and kind badass girl? She just might be your friend. If that how it is, I have some important info for you: her birthday is on the 1st of January, so if you wanna drop by to tell her something nice, it would be a perfect day to do so!

[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.

spes_phthisica

You know, sometimes I wish I could remember more about my life before coming here.

[A brief pause, and then he urgently waves his hands at the camera in a dismissive fashion.]

Aaaa, don't worry, it's not like I'm going to try to think too hard about it or anything! I know it's wrong.

[Also dangerous, he knows that too. But the "wrong" takes priority for him in particular.]

But it's just... [He pauses as a small and grumpy-looking pig scrabbles into his lap, scratching its ears distractedly.]

I have a lot of wonderful memories of these place, and I love being a shinki. But sometimes it feels like there is so much I don't know and need to make up for, you know? It's a bit daunting.

[He smiles widely.] So, that said... what are some of your best memories? Let's share them! Of both this place and home, depending on what you remember. It doesn't have to be very complicated, just something that makes you feel nice!

[Nephenee's been quiet for awhile, being her usual shy and busy self (especially shy since Takumi and Kagaho disappearance), and one of the first things that is noticeable when she shows up on the vid feed is that she looks tired.

The second is that she's outside and surrounded by a bunch of sheep and some deer, and holding a small goat.]

Hey, folks...um...so, the girls an' Ah were comin' home yesterday, an'...we kinda came across Miss Sansa's sheep, deer, an' wolves. [The tiny goat bleats in her arms.] Oh, an' lil' one here. Figured Ah'd take care o'em for her since she seems to be gone, too.

But uh, Ah kinda need to make a barn an' a special area for 'em. Ah could jus' make one outta nothin' maybe, but...kinda would like to build it myself, ya know? Would anyone like to help with that?

An' Ah'd like to see if Ah kind find a home for the wolves, too...anyone here good with wolves? Ah'm afraid they might try to get the other critters if Ah hang onto 'em, an' it's too dangerous to folks an' themselves to let 'em loose...

[Celty doesn't remember it, but this isn't the first time she's woken up in the middle of a field with her horse checking on her. Shooter might remember it, perhaps, but it's a bit too complex a thought for him to share with her. And her present situation pushes the strange dreams and new memories she has out of her mind as she's presented with a more pressing concern.]

Has anyone seen Sharak? The temple of Aditi seems to be

----------

As some of you may recall, an incident occurred around October 2nd involving some ayakashi and dimensional rifts. This was the unfortunate side-effect of an experiment of mine, and I take full responsibility for what happened. If anyone has any grievances over what happened that day you can take it up with me.

That said, I do have some important information to share regarding what was discovered during that experiment. I'll try to explain the details concisely.

[translation: this is still going to be extremely tl;dr]

( Read more... )

Conclusions/Theories

Our bodies here are most likely not our original bodies. They appear to be unable to sustain themselves when placed outside of this world's boundaries. In addition to the information listed above, we also know that shinki here are already dead, certain biological functions have been made unnecessary, gods and shinki who are killed can be brought back to life without any signs of injury, etc. The Heavens themselves only speak of drawing in "souls" as well, I don't think they've ever suggested that their methods would involve moving physical bodies across dimensions.
Due to our apparent inability to physically leave this dimension, some method must be used to draw out and "move" the individual's soul to successfully leave this world by choice.
No observations of this nature have been made for shinki at this time, but until evidence can be found we can assume that shinki would produce similar results as gods.
Whatever method is used to force gods (and shinki) to leave this world must have some way of manipulating and moving their souls remotely, as no other presence was observed in the July experiment.

Leaving this world, or finding the missing gods and shinki, is not going to be as simple as creating a pathway and walking through it. Doing so at this time is impossible. However, I don't think that means this is a dead end. We simply need to look at the problem from a different angle.

Instead of trying to make a pathway, I think the correct course of action would be to use the pathways this world creates on its own. We know that people leave this world regularly, and some unseen force is capable of sending them through a portal that would otherwise be impassable. If we can find out what that force is and what causes it to act, we may be able to manipulate it for ourselves or learn how to recreate the effects.

In other words, I want to control that force that removes people from this world directly.

This force may also be related to how outsider gods and shinki are brought into this world, so research into both topics is of interest to me right now. I have some ideas on where to start, but I'll save that for another time.

For now, if you have any questions or ideas you'd like to share you can post them here.

Is it normal for people to stay asleep for some days straight in this place? Because it's been about a few days since Ginger collapsed asleep and it's pretty freaky.

I tried searching, but it doesn't actually yield any results. So it seems to be a 'heaven' thing.

Ginger is Lavi by the way.

(The video starts with Sakura looking at the screen and then immediately looking away. Her face begins to turn a shade of pink and she whispers something to herself before taking a breath and looking back up, as determined as she can bring herself to look. She's absolutely nervous and everything about her demeanor shouts it but she tries to push through it,)

Pardon me, b-but I was wondering if someone would help me...

But first... ( She gives a small and quick bow, ) My name is Sakura, Princess of Hoshido and a g-goddess of life here in heaven but please, just Sakura will be fine. It's nice to meet you!

( How was that? Too formal? She doesn't know how to introduce herself any other way, though, ugh. At least that's over and done with. )

You see, I'm really shy so I was hoping to overcome this by t-talking to as many people as I could! Back home, I practiced by talking to the m-most intimidating person I could think of but... I think I'm a little out of practice now!

(At some point, she remembers to breathe. Finished with what she has to say, she wonders how she should end this. It feels so sudden and almost rude to just cut off the video but the more time she takes, the more awkward this becomes. Nervously, she bows her head quickly,)

Th-thank you for your time!

( And the feed cuts so she can shriek and stress and feel regret about her decision off camera. )

[The video opens onto Chikusa's usual dull expression, although he's thankfully not stuck floating in the void this time. No, the background clearly gives away his location as at the school in one of the currently empty classrooms.]

...Cho Hakkai... hasn't returned to either his temple or the school for the last couple of days.

...Let Ayumu know if you see him. Or me, I guess.

[The only reason he's making this post is because he's ~~a Millenial~~ the only tech savvy person between all three of Hakka's shinki.]
