shinxki:

Truth to be told, Akane surely didn’t expect to meet another shinki, she was just visit on her free time, but meeting the guidepost right away was.. Odd.

“I don’t believe Yato-sama have any business with Fujin-dono. I am here on my own.” She stated, her eyes shifting from the interior of the shrine to the regalia that had approached her.

“I see.” He said softly, his eyes seemingly judging her. A Shinki running off alone? What a joke. Shinki were meant to be by their Master’s side at all times. There was no such thing as free time or meandering. “Well. Word of advice, young one. It’s better to always be by your God’s side no matter what situation they’re in. Don’t ever let your guard down and never let your mind wander. I know you may enjoy free time or wandering around. But in the end it won’t help at all.”

“However that’s just my opinion. You need not heed it if you don’t want to. Just consider it me looking out for the new generation.”

“Hm~.” Itsukushiki was eyeing the young woman who had approached one his Lady’s shrines with an expression of curiosity. It was not often that a Shinki approach without their God.

“What brings you to Lady Fujin’s shrine, young one?” He asked the newcomer. He did not intend to be disrespectful, more that he could tell that she was a much younger spirit than he by posture and expression alone. “Does your Master have any business with her, by chance?” He asked as he stood up from his seat on the chairs and walked down onto the stone courtyard, hands in his pockets.

“I am Lady Fujin’s Head Shinki, Itsukushiki. If you have any messages for her, I shall gladly accept them.”

🌸– “Ah, forgive me,” with a bow that doubled as both apology and introduction, the Exemplar was swift to remedy the issue, “I am called Kazuma. ‘Chouki’ by vessel. You’ve no need to thank me, I’ve only done what is proper. It wouldn’t do to leave you without aid, Fujin-dono.”

Although he spoke with all due courtesy, with a polite expression to match, the good humor hardly seemed to reach Kazuma’s eyes. Since the moment of the Goddess’ arrival, he had felt a sense of unease. He put no blame upon her, however, but rather the news she had inadvertently carried with her.

“I don’t mean to be rude, but could you perhaps describe the Ayakashi you encountered? I’m curious if what blighted you is similar to other reports I’ve received this week.”

She wasn’t taken aback by his comment at all. In fact, she expected something of the sort. It was only natural that he’d be worried by such a thing.

“I can. They were elegant but destructive and took the shape of miniature birds. In fact, they were so beautiful I mistook them for actual crows at first but by the time I realized what they were, it was too late. If it wasn’t for my Shinki creating a barrier around me, I might not be alive right now.”

🌸– Kazuma’s gaze shifted to the newly arrived Shinki in time to offer him a polite, albeit brief, gesture of greeting. As Itsukushiki’s master had insuniated, however, now was not the time dawdle with formalities. A blighted God should not be left to suffer over pleasantries.

“Please, right this way,” with a motion of his hand, the Exemplar indicated the two should follow him as he turned, heading off in a westerly direction. “We have a number of wells on the premises that bear blessed water, you’ll find no shortage of such among any of Lady Bishamonten’s shrines, I assure you.”

As he arrived at one of the aforementioned wells, expansive enough to qualify as a small pool, Kazuma stepped aside to allow the deity room to maneuver. “Help yourself, please. I sincerely doubt my master would object to offering aid to the Wind Goddess herself.” And if Bishamon did for some reason protest, Kazuma was best suited for placating her after the fact.

It was Itsukushiki who stepped forth and drew water from the shrine using a nearby ladle. “Lady Fujin, please extend your arm.” He said softly and nodded as she did so. “This may sting a bit, but by now you’re well aware of that.” He said as he poured the water over her arm.

She winced as the water made contact with the blight, a burning sensation enveloping her body. Thankfully it soon subsided and she breathed a sigh of relief.

“Thank you for your kindness.” She said with a smile to the War God’s Shinki. “I will be sure to repay my debt to your Mistress some day.” She said as she chuckled softly.

She then pat her much taller Shinki on the arm. “And thank you for your assistance.”

Itsukushiki merely gave a nod before retreating a bit to give Fujin some room to speak.

“Now then. Some tea right about now would be most welcome. Wouldn’t you agree? But first, would you be so kind as to tell me your name? It’d be a bit rude if I kept referring to you as just Bishamoten-Dono’s Shinki, wouldn’t it?”

🌸– While centuries serving Bishamon had meant Kazuma saw his fair share of Gods and their extraordinary talents, it wasn’t a common sight for one to arrive without warning amidst a whirlwind. If the deity wished to make a lasting first impression, she certainly succeeded, so much so that a moment of stupefied staring occupied him before her words sunk in.

“…Spring?” Green eyes flicked to the unsightly blight spreading across the God’s arm. With a start, Kazuma straightened, offering her a hasty bow. “Ah, forgive me! Yes, we have a spring you can use, of course. I have to ask, however–is the source of your blight internal or external? I ask only out of necessity.” A God blighted by their Shinki might have been unsafe for his master’s Shinki to see, but a blight inflicted by Ayakashi was commonplace enough to pose no threat of unease.

“You have my thanks.” She said before grunting in pain. She had been blighted many times, but it was never any less painful. “And it is External. So you have no reason to be afraid. I encountered a storm of Ayakashi earlier in the day and while I was able to exterminate them, I did not escape unharmed.” She managed to stand up straight. “My name is Fujin, The Wind Goddess. Perhaps we can have a more formal chat later.” She said before almost falling over, only to be supported by her Shinki at the last moment.

“I thank you for the kindness you have shown my Master.” The man with light purple hair said softly. “I am Itsukushiki. Lady Fujin’s Head Shinki. Now if I may impose, where is the location of your spring? I shall guide her there.” He then lightly bopped Fujin on the head. “Don’t go running off like that again.”

She gave a soft smile and nodded, clearly not having enough energy to retort.

“That would have to be amazing to see. I have to say I’m quite jealous I did not get to see such a thing with my own eyes.” Hitochi smiled. “Not to say I haven’t seen plenty of wonderful things being built, like sanctuaries for animals that need a home.” The humans that would build such places held a spot in his heart always.

“Another question, what is one of you favorite animals? One that is still around today?” He hates that extinction was a thing, sometimes it just had to happen while other times it was forced by the human race.

“My favorite animal? I’d have to say... the eagle. I’ve always admired the grace they have when they soar through the sky. I may be A Wind Goddess, but I doubt that I could ever attain that level of beauty.”

“Lady Bishamonten, correct? I am Itsukushiki, the Head Shinki of Lady Fujin. I have approached your shrine on her behalf.” He said with a flat tone. “You see. The lady ran into some trouble with a great storm of Ayakashi and has been greatly injured by blight. I humbly request that you allow us to use your spring to purify her injuries. I promise you that we will not take long.”

#divineveena #[Hope it's fine that I started the thread using one of her Shinki~.]

I feel like I got nothing done today... and yet I had no drafts to reply to.

How does that even work?

Any other day, Fu would have probably passed over the shrine below her. But this wasn’t any normal day.

With a whirlwind, she appeared at the entrance of it. Her vibrant red hair billowing freely. “Excuse me.” She said to the man she had likely started by appearing so suddenly.

“But does this shrine have a spring... ?” She said, her voice shaky and for good reason. She had a massive blight covering her entire right arm. “I hate to intrude on another God’s property... but I don’t think I have the strength to make it back to mine. I deeply apologize if I’ve caused a disturbance.”

┄ ☣ Fu? It did make sense as a shorthand for the deity’s full name - not to mention that, of all people, Ekibio had the least reason to object to what someone would prefer to be called. ❝V-Very well - er - ‘Fu’. M-May I ask why - er- why you’re standing s-so far away? I - uhm - I promise I d-don’t bite. ❞ ☣ ┄

“Ah! Well... not to sound rude but. You are a Deity of Plagues, correct? I was just worried that I might become ill if I stood near you. I’ve heard stories about such things occurring. I kinda didn’t want to take the chance just in case it affected other gods... petty I know.” She bowed in apology. “I hope you don’t take offense!”

#causarius

causarius:

┄ ☣ …Well, this was certainly awkward. The god of wind didn’t appear threatening in the slightest ( unless her hair was made red by the blood of her enemies - oh dear, best not to think about that ) and, to their knowledge, they didn’t appear threatening either… So why stand at such a distance? Perhaps the other deity disliked being close to people? Am I doing something wrong…? What if that was the reason for the distance - had they already screwed up? ❝ T-The - er - p-pleasure is mine, Fujin-dono. E-Ekibio is - er - i-it’s fine, m-more people call me that than my - er - m-my full name.❞ ☣ ┄

“Ah. There is no need to act so shy around me.” She said softly, realizing that it was foolish of her to try and keep distance. If she got sick, she got sick. Simple as that. “And Ekibio-dono it is then. But in exchange, please just call me Fu~.”
