(The scene is rather comical. Ciel is frozen before a rather fluffy grey cat. What can there be to fear from such an adorable creature?

And then there is a wheeze. It is a dangerous sound, foretelling the closure of vital airways.)


I can't - (The young Earl coughs into his hand, backing away from the cat with quick, unsteady steps. As a result, he ends up tripping over a box of books and landing hard on his wooden floor.) Ah - !

(He rolls onto his side, trying to speak again.) Asthma - Cats -

Get away! (Because the small beast is in hot pursuit, interested in the boy's antics. Why is this human acting so strangely? Does he have food?)

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.

I got wrapped up in watching these kids pretend to be zombies for some sort of game and now I don't think I'm gonna be able to sleep at night.

Doesn't the whole zombie thing freak everyone else out? Doesn't it give you nightmares?

I've seen more decorations with ghosts and stuff around, too. How can people put that up?! Ghosts scare the hell out of me!!!!!!!

Are shinki ghosts? Do we count as ghosts?

We don't right?

I'm having a crisis.

Please help.

When mortals are lifted to the position of gods, to whom do they pray? (He doesn't believe that prayer works, yet here he is, proving himself wrong daily. It's disturbingly ironic.) I stopped believing in anything or anyone - besides myself - four years ago. My experience here has not changed that, which is surprising.

(With a small frown, he readjusts his eye-patch, tying it in place behind his head.)

Is faith a myth or is it something...tangible...for you?

If, in part of your job, you capture an intruder at your workplace and used them as a hostage to call out their comrades, who had previously been found intruding and trying to steal something very important that you can't allow get stolen because protecting it is part of your job, and one of the people you know want to keep that intruder as a guinea pig (though you know that they probably wouldn't treat the prisoner badly, per se), and another wants to kill the intruder and all their comrades, but you think neither is a great idea, what would you do? I did as I was told and let them handle the decision making because my job is everything I have back home and I couldn't risk getting fired, but what if you could choose? Would it make a difference if it's an adult or a kid? This isn't ethically speaking, or what one should do, but what you would do in a similar situation, without caring about that.


[ So he recently remembered this scenario happening. He knows his decision wouldn't change because, his work in the military was everything that he had when he was alive, but if he'd had options..... He doesn't know what he'd have done then. Maybe that's why he's posting this question. ]

Hello, everyone!

[Heeeeeere's Wendy! Looking as cute as she can possibly make herself. And she's pretty damn cute. She'd just like to remind you all of that. She's bundled up a little, to combat the cool weather, because, as the background shows, she is on the Near Shore. Shrine grounds, in fact!]

In case you don't know me, my name is Wendy! I'm on here to let you guys know that I'm unveiling something that will be important for all of us! It's-

[And she twists around, focusing the camera now on a modest little shinto shrine. It's not supremely small, but it's not super enormous, either. Livable, which is the important thing. Striding across the stone, a chicken pauses to stare at the shinki girl and clucks.]

[Anyone paying attention might recognize this as a shrine to Amaterasu.]


-the brand new Shinki Sanctuary! [Wendy turns the camera back to herself.] People are always disappearing here, which is bad enough. However, when it's a god who vanishes, they leave behind their shinki! And what's a shinki on their own without anyone? Ayakashi bait. So I asked- [She speaks slowly, making sure to get it right.] -Amaterasu if we could have funds to make a sanctuary for godless shinki to stay at.

And that's what this is! Here on the Near Shore, we're allowed to use this shrine for shinki to stay at if they don't have anywhere else. We should be able to get clothing, if you don't have any spares, and I'll do my best to make sure we have food available!

Not only that, but I'm also starting a matchmaking service here! If you're a god who wants or needs a shinki, or a shinki who wants a god for whatever reason- [No nora judgment here.] -then please stop over here and fill out a form! Everyone is welcome, you don't have to be staying at here to fill out a form.

So be sure to remember this just in case, alright? And tell your friends!


[ooc: Yep, Wendy has started up a Shinki Sanctuary and Matchmaking Service! For more information on both of those, go here.]

From: Sousuke Yamazaki
When: Early October

[It’s rare that he posts to the BBS; Sousuke’s quiet nature and sometimes-over-focus kind of leads to that little problem. Content to dwell with his own life and his own small circle of friends and duties. But sometimes, the private life just doesn’t cut it. Especially when said private life is the entire reason for breaking his silence and going outside that small circle.

The video feed clicks on with a quiet sound, light blazing from the screen for a second until it adjusts to the scenery. It’s soon obvious he’s alone. Considering the presence of a black jacket barely resting at the peripheral of the video’s frame, it’s likely he’s holding the screen to his side. Deliberately not pointing the feed at himself. Instead, there’s a lovely shot of a quiet patch of natural garden, complete with trickling spring, breezing of clear air, and the ever-present drizzle of pink sakura petals from the surrounding grove Eros’ castle temple is renowned for.


There’s a moment of silence, semi-awkward on his end, before Sousuke finally outs with it. His tone’s calm, musing.]


Can a god and a shinki be more than god and shinki? [A measure before adding in a lower voice.] Or will it make problems between them?

[Yeah, it’s vague, he knows. The nature of god and shinki is a complex relationship. But Sousuke’s not honest enough with his softer emotions and being open to other people to outright ask the serious/embarrassing question:

What happens if you find yourself attracted to your own god?]

[So it's just Lann hanging out in front of the temple of Asteria.]

Hey has anybody just found cool stuff laying around in their god's temple? Stuff that wasn't there the day before, I mean.

[He angles the camera a little to one side to reveal a large purple..... actually what even is
that? ]

I found this guy in our fridge the other day.

[Lann doesn't bother explaining how that thing could fit in a fridge in the first place. Instead he then shifts the angle upward. Perched happily on top of his head is this cute little guy. ]

And this one was in my shoe yesterday morning. Pretty neat, huh? I wonder where they came from...

This is.....me?

[ It's like the sun dawns. She settles in to just stare. At herself. On her webcam. Content. At peace. ]

Beautiful...........

[ Something in the background sniggers like a kettle boiling. Kicking someone while they're down - say, switching an amnesiac's phone to broadcast when it'd meant to privately record - is apparently perfectea accepteable teahavior. ]

As gods and goddesses, should we expect live sacrifices? Depending on the culture, it seems a fairly regular practice.

If you witnessed such an offering, would you praise those responsible? Or would you punish them?


(He keeps this as text because he realizes his expression may not be...charming. But the thought is a little amusing. At least to him.)

Will you abide by what your deity stands for or branch out on your own?

[Emizel was very suspicious this morning when a new door materialized in his temple. It's only happened one other time that he remembered - perhaps it was a sign that he had grown even more as a god lately. But as he opened it he immediately realized he had seen this room before, it was his bedroom - from Alan's temple. Stranger still was the tie he remembered Alan wearing some of the time neatly folded on the bed - with some sweets, and a green butterfly waiting for him.]

[At first Emizel tried contacting Alan directly but somehow he couldn't reach his phone. It did not bode well so the demon went with a second option, thinking that somebody must know.]


Has anyone seen Alan Humphries today? I need to ask him something.

First of all, is there a way to change the name one posts under? It's either what's there or anonymous, and I'd rather use my own name.

Second...and sort of embarrassing...does anyone else FORGET they have a shinki? In my defense, he's about as interesting as as a person as he is as a weapon, so I keep forgetting he's around...

From: Goten
Date: September 24

[Surprisingly, Goten’s name pops on the network, and at first, the video shows nothing but voices can be heard: Goten’s and a deeper voice that may sound familiar to some.

It’s not long before Goten notices the device and his face pops up, looking excited.]


Hey! Everybody! I found him! He’s still here! I found him, I found him! Look!

[The device bops with Goten’s bouncing as he moves it to show a familiar blond, practically shoving the camera into Izumo’s face.

Izumo looks at the camera, lifting a hand in a sort of wave.]


It seems I’ve caused a bit of a ruckus when I left, if what Goten told me is right. [A glance at Goten before he looks back at the camera, giving a smile.]

Sorry for that.

[Goten’s hair is practically the only thing viewable of him as he holds the camera more on Izumo like he’s going to disappear otherwise.]

You should invite everyone to your new place and make something yummy. I betcha they’d like that.

[Izumo chuckles, ruffling his hair.]

Right. Anyway, [He looks back at the camera.] for now, you can find me at my bar, Double Cross. I doubt I’ll end up disappearing anytime soon with Goten clinging onto me.

[Actually, there’s a bit of a pause and he has to look at Goten.]

My bar is still in one piece, right?

Uhhhm…..I dunno, I think Shizuo was pretty upset you were gone to…

[That doesn’t make it assuring.

Izumo sighs out and gives a nod to the camera.]


In any case, if anyone of you want to find me, I’ll be there. [And with that, the video ends.]

[The video pops on with Undertaker's face staring right at it, muttering in the middle of some sort of disagreement with someone on the other side of the camera. After a few moments and a few reaches of his finger to poke this or that around the edges of the view, it becomes clear that it's not someone that he's arguing with, but rather something or perhaps the camera itself.]

No, no, that's not right. Where was the-?

Are you really going to do that again on me? How many time must I tell you that's not the right... No, see, you're just going all sorts. That's never going to work.

[Fingers poke around under the view again for a few seconds more - in relative silence! - before Undertaker grins and giggles in triumph.] Ah, there's the on-

[Whatever it was that he had been meant to find, it all becomes lost as something he does triggers the end of the feed.]

(The small Earl sits, perched on a stone bench, before a pool that is reflecting the stars like a mirror. It's difficult to not be transfixed by such a sight.)

I have never seen them so clearly. I did not think the sight from my manor dampened by unnecessary interference, but now I am proven wrong.

(He is quiet, letting his watchers soak in the beauty.)

Does anyone know where I might acquire a guard-dog? They needn't be fully trained, I suppose.

(If only Sebastian were here to train them! Actually if the demon was here, he wouldn't need one.)

Has anyone else been disappointed by what power they got by stepping foot into here? Glad that I got to keep everything else I had, but still, nothing about it feels that godlike at all.

I just wonder how everyone else tries to work around it.

I have neglected to announce my presence in this manner and I am perhaps overdue. I am Ciel Phantomhive and I have discovered that I am filling in for the Grecian goddess Asteria. (An ironic choice for reasons he will never tell.) She is the Titan goddess of falling stars and nighttime divinations (such as oneiromancy (by dreams) and astrology (by stars)). She is also the mother of Hekate, goddess of witchcraft.

(He is sitting at a desk, glancing at an open book briefly with his uncovered eye.)

Are there any others who hail from the year 1889?
