Posted by: Minako
Date: February 8th

[ First there's a mess of blonde hair, as if someone turned the camera on a little too quickly and excitedly before being fully ready, but then Minako's face - with a big smile - fully appears. ]

So, everyone.. Valentine's Day is coming up, and you all know what that means! [ She moves her eyebrows up and down a few times. ] Of course I'm sure some of you already have found that special someone to spend that special day with, but there must be some people who are still worried about what they'll do on that day!

Well, if you're one of those people, then have no fear! You don't have to spend all day feeling down when you can instead dedicate it to finding the love of your life! That's what I'm here to help you with this year. You see, you can sign up for having one or more quick blind dates on Valentine's Day. Just leave me a comment here if you're interested, and tell me if you're interested in one date, or two, or three, or.. well, maybe someone will set the record for most blind dates in one day?

[ She laughs. ]

Anyway, once you've done that, people will randomly get assigned together and you'll be told the location of your date or dates on Valentine's Day itself! It's that simple!

And maybe by now you're thinking, "aw geez, Minako, I know you're a totally cute and super capable girl, but how could even you do all of that all by yourself?!" Never fear once more, since I have a super great partner in all of this who will tell you some more about this great opportunity!

[ Minako seems to reach for something off camera, muttering a few things under her breath at whatever is there, and then Chikusa is dragged onto the video. Not entirely willingly, from the looks of it. ]

[In fact, Chikusa definitely isn't willing, as is obvious by the fact that he is aggressively not making eye contact with the camera. After a few moments, perhaps giving into the oppressive sparkling atmosphere which is around Minako, he grits out a sigh.]

...No more than three dates.

[They have not planned for more than three. He refuses to do more work.]

Also... we need some people willing to clean up ayakashi on that day, too. There's a variant which seems to be getting worked up about this holiday.... So we need cleaners. Tell us if you're interested....

[After a second, he weakly tries to pull out of Minako's grip not too unlike a cat.]

[ Minako doesn't seem like she'll let go just yet, which means there's a lame and weak tug of war happening on camera right now as Minako tries to maintain her near sparkly smile. ]

Yes, let us know! Now how do I..

[ She reaches over to the camera - thankfully letting go of Chikusa - and manages to shut the feed off after a moment or two. ]

Good evening.

( She bows her head in greeting and smiles shyly, trying to not look too nervous. You would think she'd be used to this sort of thing by now but she isn't. )

Sorry to ask such a strange question b-but uhm... is anyone interested in fortune telling? My temple has a large assortment of celestial charts and divining cards and... well, I've been wanting to practice. Hehe...

B-but it might be a little difficult to use those here so...! ( She looks down at her hands, ) I was thinking we could try something a little easier?

( And she holds up a paper fortune teller. The top folds have four pictures on them: A tiger, a tortoise, a bird, and a dragon. )

Please, pick one.

( ooc: It's implied that Sakura has some premonition skills because she's a priestess but she herself isn't aware of it and isn't able to tap into it actively! Sakura's paper fortune teller will be asking about some popular/general areas. You'll be prompted in a tag depending on what your character chooses and you can tell me if you they'll have good or bad luck in the future. It's a paper fortune teller! It's going to be general and vague so what are you really expecting??? You can also prompt Sakura to try using her charts/cards for something a little more in depth and we can work that out on plurk at

eski or PM! Otherwise, she can totally just get things wrong... she's a teenaged girl having fun with horoscopes and fortune tellers.)

[Romeo is learning more and more every day and how to use his phone is one of those things. He had found his way onto the BBS and though many of the things on it were full of more words than he could read there were some videos and he soon got the hang of it. It was a place to ask questions to lots of people, to make sure you got lots of answers!

And Romeo had questions. The camera angle is odd and the video shaky but Romeo is sat in his room crossed legged.]

Hello! I'm Romeo. Um I got some questions that I've been thinking about for a while. [Over a week! That was a very long time to have such questions inside you!]

When I was helping after the volcano exploded I met a little boy who was a god but he was all confused and didn't know about people coming from different worlds or anything. He said he was born a god in this world and...

[That's not actually the bit he has questions about, he looked serious for a moment, this has been worrying him a lot.] He said the heavens were cruel that if gods broked the rules they get killed and get brought back as baby gods who don't know nothing so they can be told whatever the heavens want them to know! He said that they didn't care about what happened to anybody, not gods or shinki or even humans and they just cared about keeping power.

But everyone has been really nice and the heavens seems like a good place, it's s'posed to be a good place but he seemed really sure that it was actually cruel and bad!

[He doesn't want to think that his new friend was lying, but he also doesn't want him to be right. He doesn't want this to be a bad place with mean bosses who kill gods who don't follow the rules! Romeo doesn't know what the rules are! What if his friends get killed and brought back as baby gods because they accidentally break one!]

We understand that it is difficult to bear the unexpected loss of gods and shinki to whom you are attached. However, please bear in mind that we, too, find these disappearances to be a tragic mystery.

To clarify: I cannot bring back those that you may have lost.

Any violence against my home or my shinki will be met with a proportionate response.

We would like to ask if anyone is willing to accept responsibility for the shinki who calls himself "Sha Gojyo," as the god who we know to be his is no longer among us.

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?

So how does someone go about getting a steady job when you're dead anyhow?

[Disgruntled, with a frown curving her lips down, the pink haired girl on screen is clearly frustrated and simultaneously at a loss.]

I don't mean helping to answer prayers or the like. I mean a REAL job where I can earn money of my own. I'm a super-duper good worker!

[Or at least she can be when it's something she wants. Regardless, she does try hard.]

But everyone keeps rejecting me because-

[She lifts up a finger]

One: I look too young to hold a job.

[Another finger goes up]

And two, I don't have any paperwork that I can provide.

[Head hanging to the side, she sighs]

Sometimes I can play my guitar outdoors and people will notice occasionally, but since we don't stand out much it's difficult getting attention to begin with. I've been looking forever and still have no luck! So what do people do to get around some of these problems?

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!

[The video opens up to Chikusa, clearly walking along a street with street lamps and the warm glow of various storefronts going past him. He keeps the camera focused on his face, delivering his words in the usual blank monotone.]

So... A lot of stuff has happened recently. It's been troublesome... So, to help bring peace and whatever back to the household... Hakkai is taking us all to an all you can eat buffet sort of place.

[He carefully turns his camera around, focusing on what's ahead of him. Or, rather, the people walking ahead of him: Cho Hakkai leading at the very front, the scruffy headed Sha Gojyo close besides them as the two talk about whatever, Goku nearly right behind, and Ken behind him. Ken in particular seems to be switching from looking back at Chikusa as if to make sure that he hasn't lost him and exchanging indistinct bickerings with Goku. After making sure he's gotten a decent enough shot, Chikusa turns the camera back around to focus on his face.]

...I once saw Goku and Ken go through an entire pot of pasta. Each. And were still hungry.

( so it's going to be that kind of night )

Yo. Took long enough, huh? Nearly two months if you count it one way, month and a half the other way.

Anyway I'm over at my temple if you were looking for me that whole time. Sorry to keep you waiting. That's all I wanted to say.

[ A little cryptic, but he's not a particularly open person over technology, especially in light of how he died, and being pretty sure the guy's still around.

OOC: Pair log over here if you're interested. ]

Is it normal for items to just 'show up'? When I woke up this morning there was a sword in my bed--stabbed through my bed next to my face. I'm fairly certain it's not my god's or his other shinki's.

... if you misplaced a sword in Ler's temple, I'd like to know why it had to be next to my face while I was sleeping.

Is it okay to have a birthday if you were never really 'born?'

In the aftermath of recent troublesome events, I've been reminded that I was going to ask this of all of you.

How many of you have abilities, whether natural, supernatural, or recently acquired, that can be used to track someone? Furthermore, if you're willing to explain it to me, can you tell me how those abilities work?

After all, if someone else goes missing, it's best if we all know who can help us find them, and don't waste time and energy.

Pardon me, but I have a question. Uhm... the leaves are a beautiful color this time of year, don't you think?

In this realm, there appears to be a custom w-where people come together to observe the foliage. They go to parks and gardens a-and all sorts of places to, well... I suppose to relax and take in the moment? I was thinking... I-I'd like to enjoy something like that.

My shrine's grounds are lovely but... ( She'll move the camera some to show her gardens through an open door. There are some fall colors-- bright golds and brilliant reds-- but what stands out the most are the whites and pinks of fluffy cherry blossoms, perpetually in bloom even this late in the year. ) ... It's n-not exactly what I'm looking for.

I-I was thinking of going some place this week. Friday, perhaps? ( She holds up a flyer, ducking behind it to show the camera. There's a large white castle illuminated and surrounded by red and golden trees at night. The text on the flyer is promoting a seasonal illumination. For those with memories of Sakura's world, the castle in the picture might look familiar... ) It's supposed to be the best time to see the colors there.

If anyone would like to go, please let me know. The more the m-merrier! ... Right?

( ooc: Sakura will be hosting an autumn viewing (IC) ~17 November. I'll throw up a log for that next week! )
