I hear I am ignorant and stuff so, anyone know any movies and other play box things that I should look into?

Also music, got any tips on that?

How do you people even find stuff like that to know anyway, by the way?

[The girl on the feed hasn't been here before... Is she new? (No, she just isn't good at social stuff. Sue her.) She doesn't seem terribly nervous, at least.]

I don't think I've been on the network since I arrived, so... I'm Rita. Rita Mordio, Zaphias Imperial Research Labratory... detached duty. Shut up, I know better, but it's habit by now. Anyway, I'm on for a reason, at least in part because certain things about modern science on both shores are pissing me off. I want to trade notes on magic systems - not shinki spells from here, but magic from home. I'm not here to steal your secrets, I just need to see if another perspective would help me figure out what I'm doing. I have some ideas but I want to see if there's a more elegant way to handle some things. Assistance will be appreciated, and also credited in any published works or designs. I'm an imperial scientist by trade, I don't steal work.

[As usual with Ebisu, this video takes place within his office where he's cheerfully looking into the camera. Is a dandy little vest and button up on today again? Oh, absolutely.]

Greetings, everyone. I'm sure that you are all quite busy, with events transpiring as they have, but I am here today to draw your attention to a festival which is occurring all month. I understand that many of you are gods foreign to Japan and recent cultural trends, so I hope this proves to be informative.

In the city of Nara- Naramachi to be exact- there is an art festival that will be ongoing throughout all of June. It's really a rather unique event! You see, that part of town has the nickname of Nyaramachi, because it's rather famous for its local cat population. So the art festival which takes place this month is very cat oriented! Hopefully it can help ease some of the stress that we've all been under. I've been told there are a variety of events to attend, and various items that can be bought, such as pottery or toys.

Although... If there are some people who perhaps have the time for it, it does seem as though there is a little trouble, as there usually is with large Near Shore events such as this. If anyone has the time to check in on a few things... Well, it would be appreciated. For all that this is a very fun event, well, it is ultimately for the sake of the feline residents' health and happiness, you see. I'm sure it's not only the humans which would appreciate any helping hands.

Where did Fuwari go? She was a girl who came and was a god and she had a tiny temple in the woods and she was really nice and was miss Hibiki's friend. But her temple is gone now and I can't find her name in my phone. I know people sometimes disappear and their temples go too but she was only here for a few days and that's quicker than what normally happens.

And there was lots of people that day, lots and lots and a person who looked like a banana and I don't think I've seen them again either. [He definitely would remember the banana.]

So where did they all go?

Um.. hey!

[ Although Minako smiles, there's something a bit muted about her. If not just for the fact that the volume of her voice currently isn't rupturing your eardrums right away with the greeting. ]

I thought I should let everyone know, since a lot of people know her.. But it's probably going to be difficult to reach Zelda for a while. Because she's asleep! And, you know, not just "doesn't want to get up in the morning" asleep. More like.. "sudden spring hibernation" sleep? Which is something that.. sometimes happens, I guess!

[ It's fine. This is fine. It's fine! See, she's smiling. Totally cool. ]

I guess.. until she wakes up, I'm going to try and take care of Metis temple affairs. [ Sure, Natsuru is there too, but Minako is the Exemplar! Not to mention Minako does have a natural leader sense - despite her lack of memories - and a huge sense of responsibility. It comes natural to try and take the whole world on her shoulders if needed. ] So if you need anything.. just let me know instead!

.. yeah, that's all. Thanks for listening, everyone!

[The camera is a little shaky as it moves through corridors, twisting and turning. Whoever this mysterious poster is he is moving slowly, as if he were exploring somewhere dangerous and frightening.

There is a noise in the background and as the phone gets closer it is recognisable as singing. The phone moves around a door to a kitchen where Shen Wei can be found at a chopping board surrounded by various ingredients, meat and vegetables.

He is singing as he works. In full flow of the song. There's a soft laugh from whoever this mysterious individual with access to Shen Wei's temple might be.

The image fades and refocusing, clearly later. Or another day. It's hard to say but the camera is now at a different angle, as if the filmer might be in a tunnel, or hidey hole close to the ground.

This time Shen Wei at the oven, frying meat, boiling noodles and once again he is singing as he works.

The footage is posted with just a single line in text.]


See he is not as stuffy and strict as he makes out to be!

Public shaming is perfectly warranted in this instance, right?!


[attached is a photo of Hat Kid. She looks confused. In one hand she holds a bottle labeled "Meatball Wine." In the other, a sign. It says "I got caught drinking marinara sauce and apparently do so 'some of the time."]

[Yes. This is basically a pet shaming picture]

[So that was an awkward training session, huh guys? Good thing Oscar is choosing to ignore that right now. He has Farm Work to talk about.]

It's middle of March now, which means it's about time to start planting and things. When I posted a video last month, a lot of people seemed eager to help out so I was thinking in a week or so I'd host a potluck at my temple for anyone who wants to come out? You don't have to help plant, if you just want to come for the free food, but if you do come at least bring a dish.

I guess this is a sort of RSVP/announcement, if people want to do that.

[Normally, Shun doesn't let people know exactly what he's going to be doing in the wake of a loss. He'll just drop off for a day or two and come back and carry on with things. This, however, is something he's going to need more time for, and he'd rather make his position clear in advance.]

I'm going to be taking care of some personal matters for the next five or so days, and it'll mostly be in Egypt and Iraq. If you contact me and it's not an emergency, don't expect a response after today.

[On the other hand...well, this is going to be a fairly significant undertaking. He could probably use help if anyone's willing, and pride aside, he owes more than just his own effort, he feels.]

If you're not a stranger and you want to help, contact me privately and I can give you information. I'll need some eyes out around here too, and this is more than a one-person job.

[The observant may notice that the name "Inanna" is missing from the gods list, and that a plot in Southeast District that used to house a temple that was a mix between a medieval castle and a Middle Eastern styled courtyard house is now empty. Or mostly empty. It looks like someone came by at a very early hour and somehow managed to encourage a large swathe of mountain lilies to bloom across the fresh earth where the temple used to be.

Only those closer to Shun are likely to know what the full ramifications of that disappearance are, though.]

As some of you may be aware, a large group of bees have moved into an abandoned temple in the Western District. Some bee sting injuries of children have occured.

I intend to take these bees under my protection and move them to my temple. If there are no objections, it will be done by the 25th.

[ Ain will be converting the bees to void-touched versions of themselves, and this will let him influence them to become calmer once they take up residence in his temple. They will still go about their foraging rituals but avoid stinging people, only flying away if disturbed. However, the honey they produce will become poisonous. This has been cleared by the mods o/ ]

Hey, thanks to everyone who helped look for my cat earlier. I really appreciate it. 

[Ren just wants to show his gratitude in an earnest way. It's something he should have done a while back.]


So a lot of time has passed since that incident. Here's a question. Do you have hobbies outside of your God and Shinki duties? I'm fond of reading and playing games.


What about you?

[It might not be a bad idea to be more familiar with the folks around here.]

[Snatcher's voice sounds rather strained, just a hair away from speaking through grit teeth.]

HERE'S A FUN FACT!

Did you know that if you publish photos that damage someone's reputation you can be sued in civil court?

If for some reason you happen to feel like you've been wronged by... I don't know... a bunch of NOSY PAPARAZZI, let me know! I'd be happy to take your case!

[For the record, Snatcher's candid photos are of him air guitaring and otherwise rocking the hell out in the privacy of his own room, and reading his minion and stolen spygoat a book of fairy tales if anyone feels like mocking him.]

My new shinki woke up grumpy this morning. He may also be planning on sneaking in where he shouldn't be. I'm both apologizing in advance, and sharing an image of his current appearance just in case:



He likes dried fish, large pillows, and ear scratches. Be wary of touching his tail or his belly, and especially do not offend him by claiming that he is an inferior creature. I will not be held responsible for the damages he will cause.

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.

So. Uh...

[He looks back over his shoulder, then down at the ground.]

I'm kinda on the streets again...uh...if you can call it that...

[He sighs and it jostles the camera a bit.]

I didn't eat too much this time! I promise! But that's...I mean, nothing was left behind at all this time, so...yeah...
