Have you ever been in love before? Was it returned?

Do you think some are meant to be alone?

(These are the thoughts she entertains when her temple is quiet and her fires burn low.)

You need not get into specifics if it is uncomfortable for you.

    [ When the video starts, it's on Souji specifically. He gives the camera a bit of a wave with the hand not holding his phone, his temple's open kitchen and dining area behind him. ]

    Hello, everyone. I've been working on lists for study groups, and references for them as well as investigative notes, but I wanted to pose a different offer this time. Hence, why this post will have attachments in the form of photos rather than text this time.

    [ Follow his trek, everyone, through the kitchen and under the free standing stairs, to one of his numerous tatami rooms that lead outside on the first floor. He's immediately greeted by a chorus of meows and chirps, any sort of noise a cat might make when pleased at a person, and that's where he comes to a stop. ]

    I've been picking up stray cats, as well as cats from the shelter that were having a hard time finding families, and have been working on socializing them. All of them are in good health at the moment, have had all their vaccines and the like, and are fixed - except one, but more on her in a moment. You see, I've been hoping to find them permanent homes, either here or on the other Shore. Pretty much all of the ones I have are currently ready for that, so I was wondering if there was anyone that was maybe considering a cat for a companion.

    Anyone that isn't homed is going to go up for adoption to the other Shore, but I figured you all could have first dibs.

    If you just want to come and see them, you can do that, too. The aforementioned special cat is actually a new mother, so there are newborn kittens here now.

    [ This is when he turns the phone around, camera focused on the cats around his feet. That's the end of the video!

    As mentioned, there are pictures attached. What these cats look like are up to dealer's choice, if they wanted to adopt one or coo over one in particular, and Souji literally has enough variety that any picture would do.

    ... he also probably has enough cats for anybody that would want one. It's gotten to that point now.     ]

It's been a while since I last posted the timeline of events. We've had a lot of new people showing up. Some might be curious about when we started arriving and everything that's happened afterward.

These are my notes, but I haven't been here since the beginning. If there's anything you'd like to add or question, please feel free.

Hello everyone, I hope that I'm doing this right. I will admit, I'm still getting used to using this, so please be patient with me.

I was curious, for those who struggle with reading or writing here: do you have any tips? I feel like I'm slowly making progress, but it's frustrating when you can't read most of what you find in the library. I think I saw something about learning, but I may be mistaken.

Alternately, is there anyone who wants to put together small study groups for those of us who aren't as proficient with reading and writing in Japanese? Does something like that exist? If not, would anyone be interested?

I'm aware that there are a handful of us who seems to enjoy books, so I'm offering up the idea of forming a book club of sorts.

At least that way, we can get together and discuss books - or even spells we've happened to come across. While learning Borderlines is important, I think these spells can be useful to know at least, even though actually applying them may take a little longer to figure out.

Another thing I'd like to ask is if who'd be willing to help out in organizing the library. It's a mess and I'm surprised that no one's made an effort - that I know of, anyway - to clean it up. It can take forever, but we might be able to find something that can come in handy in all of that mess.

If anybody needs to find me to discuss this in person, I'm currently at the library right now.

    [ It's been a while since he last posted about this, but! Souji offers the network at large a smile from the interior of his temple, cats milling around as per usual. ]

    Early last month, I asked if there was anyone that was interested in doing group studies. Since then, a lot's happened, and there have been new arrivals as well as departures. Unfortunately, some of those departures were people that offered to lead certain subjects, so I felt it might be a good idea to ask again. [ He inclines his head respectfully, quiet for a second before continuing. ]

    As many of you have likely seen, Hakkai-san is offering tutoring for certain subjects - math and Japanese, for example - at a previously abandoned temple. I know from talking with others that Japanese, especially, is in demand due to the fact that a lot of arrivals aren't familiar with the language. So if you feel you may need help with either of those, please, take a look at the schedule.

    He's also been kind enough to open up the space to other lessons so...

    I think it'd be a great idea to get on track with actually doing these studies, both to learn new things we might need and to enrich ourselves since it's a little difficult for us to go to school on the Near Shore. We should be able to help one another, right? [ He flashes a friendly smile, easy as anything. ]

    Personally, I worked as a tutor back home, so I have some experience in the matter. I'm specifically good with history, literature, and science, but also with Japanese and English both. For non-school subjects it's mostly first-aid and cooking, but if you're interested in fishing or origami, then that, too.

    But there are a lot of us here who might not have the proper training when it comes to certain types of weapons, the use of magic or other newfound abilities, or just fighting in general. I have combat experience, but I'm self-taught and it's with swords only. If there's anyone that would be interested in offering training for whatever styles of combat and weaponry that they specialize in, I think it'd be appreciated. I know I'd personally like to learn more forms of combat, as a god, so that I don't somehow hurt my shinki in the event their vessel is one I've never used before.

    If there's something in particular you're interested in learning or teaching, please feel free to let me know. I'll compile a list for both, and do a follow up after the next batch of arrivals comes in so that they can join as well. If you previously volunteered to lead a study group for a certain subject, I'd appreciate it if you could let me know if you're still interested so we can match you up with groups.

    [ He bows his head. ]


( Souji has transcribed the video, for anyone who would rather read text. A link to Hakkai's post that he's referring to has also been ICly provided. )

[The video feed clicks on to show Goten's face way closer up then it needs to be. He squints a bit at the screen as if trying to figure out if it's working or not. When he does lean back, there's no greenery or buildings behind him, just a vast blue sky dotted with clouds. It's easier to show everything from a bird's eye view, or at least he thinks so. For once the boy isn't grinning from ear to ear. He's much too confused and concerned right now.]

I think it's working....

Um, can temples just disappear? I can't find Archie anywhere either. All that's left are me and my new cloud friend here.

[He angles the video down to show the fluffy bright-yellow cloud he's sitting on. The cloud almost seems to bounce up in greeting. The video moves to look past the cloud and down far below at an nearly untouched beach with a cliff side. For anyone that had ever found or seen it, Dakuwaqa's temple has vanished.]

D-does that happen a lot? Where does everything go? I've looked all over...

[He already knows the god isn't around, that or he magically picked up and cleaned house. The name that was on his right hand is gone too so...His voice strengthens as he takes a deep breath and flips the camera back to his face in a sudden motion, frowning and trying to glare. He really is upset about this. He's hoping maybe the shark god just took his teasing or trick too far this time.]

Arrrrrrrrrrchie! You better answer me! If you're trying to play a trick on me I won't forgive you. You hear me! This isn't funny!

( A list of events that have happened in The Far Shore )

I haven't been here since the beginning and I don't think I'm aware of everything that's happened. So if you have something to add or questions, hopefully we can use this to better consolidate our information.

Hey everyone! This might sound a little out there, and I'm still new, but! I couldn't keep this to myself, not when it sounds like so much fun!

There's this place that does something called karaoke? Which from what get is where you go to a place, and they have all these songs that you can sing! And you can sing with other people too. Maybe you know the song, maybe you don't, but I think it's half the fun!

They do group discounts too! And they have liquor and food and stuff to help people keep singing.

So if we were to book a couple of nights from now...who'd want to come?!

    Recently, there was some talk about doing study groups for those of us that wanted to either fill the missing void of school, since we can't attend or don't feel comfortable attending for whatever reason, or who wanted to learn more from others who might be willing to share their knowledge. It can also supplement school, if you're one of the people that's decided to continue attending while we're here.

    I know there's also some people who might not be accustomed to Japanese culture and language, and, judging by the posts regarding people learning about technology, might not know a lot about the current tech used here.

    Personally, I'd like to learn more in general, and would be willing to share what I know with others.     [ It'd also be a distraction, since his shinki appears to have disappeared? ]
    So consider this a survey on how much interest there might be in this kind of thing. And it doesn't matter if you just want to learn, or if you're just interested in sharing something you know with others. If you want to participate, let me know, and we'll see if we can't put something together.

If anyone finds any vultures picking through their temple, a handful of them escaped from the grounds of mine earlier. They should look like this.

img001.jpg [The picture is out the front of Shun’s sunken-into-a-hill temple, and shows him standing with one arm out. On the arm are two different vultures, the one on the left a typical bald-headed dark brown and pink one, the other a much lighter brown with a downy white head and neck.]

If they’re not doing any damage, they should come back in their own time, so don’t make a fuss.

Since I’ve spoken to others with temple animals before – do they have to feed? I doubt rotting meat is going to be easy to come by naturally in the afterlife.

If anyone wants to help me make sure these things aren’t going to attack people on sight or anything ridiculous like that, or knows more about vultures than what I can find by a basic internet search, then you might as well visit now while I'm with them. I’ll be able to call them off if they do try anything unpredictable. [He knows at least one other person has attack-happy temple animals, so it seems like a fair caution to take.]

[[Log for anyone who wants to visit vulture temple or get visited by asshole vultures is here!]]
