Homeless~

[ibarakasen]

Mundane, I hope you realize keeping me idle here is not going to do anyone good in the long run. Especially since you seem to have no plans now that you finally have given me an outlet to the outside.

I have more important things: like keeping the shrine maiden motivated. And taking care of those Evil Spirits.

...

[Blanching.]

What do you mean my boss would like to talk to me? I don't have a-

[Oh wait.]

No, that doesn't count. And stop saying those things about me.

[ibarakasen]

[Well this isn't who she wanted to talk to, either :|]

Say what you will, it's not going to stop me.

[higan_retour]

[Deal with it, she should be used to Komachi popping up whenever by now anyway.]

I wasn't doubting, it's sort of fun that way anyway. I'd like to see how long this will all last.

[ibarakasen]

[Just taken off-guard. She's used to Komachi popping up at her Dojo, there's a difference.]

You certainly seem like you would, but don't you have a job to do?

[higan_retour]

And I do it when it needs to be done. [The bare minimum at least.]

Anyway, this place doesn't adhere to stuff like that, and where I currently am I'm sadly unemployed.

[ibarakasen]

[She'd mention the flower thing, but she's pretty sure Komachi hears it... all the time.]

... And where are you at now that you can afford to be completely jobless?

[higan_retour]

[She does, and it's getting old. She just got overwhelmed okay? It was unusual... even if it happens every 60 years....]

I wouldn't say afford... but it's going to take some time. At least I could convert the money I already had. As for where it is, some Greek island with the worst goddess ever.

[ibarakasen]

[And whose fault is that. You shouldn't be so lazy!

Also, she's sort of afraid to ask but...]

How is she the 'worst goddess ever'?

[higan_retour]

[One day she'll have her timing down, one day.]

Well, not only does she kidnap people indiscriminately, but she puts these stupid collars on you, takes away any abilities you have, and then forces you to sleep with people or choke to death.

[ibarakasen]

[Finger up to make a point!

Finger down in wtf.]

So, a goddess that feeds off of... excess sexual energy? How are people to learn to not be so dependent on their worldly desires in a place like that!

[higan_retour]

I would say they aren't. In fact, they're encouraged to have more desires than natural I would say.

[ibarakasen]

[This offends like.

Every one of her sensibilities.]

... What a terrible place. She encourages those who would give her faith to fall into a lust-borne oblivion?

[higan_retour]

Yep. But then I don't think she cares about faith as much as she cares about people being as "active" as possible.

[ibarakasen]

... That's suicide for a god.

[higan_retour]

Well, if they get their power that way....

[ibarakasen]

And here I thought gods got their power from faith.

[higan_retour]

So did I, but maybe this is some kind of stretch or variation on it?

[ibarakasen]

[Rubbing her forehead]

At this point, I'm not sure I wish to know further.

[higan_retour]

It's probably best. You should be glad you're not stuck somewhere like that.

[ibarakasen]

... I think you're going to jinx it, shinigami.

[higan_retour]

Er... well, there's always worse places....?

[ibarakasen]

... I fail to see how.

[higan_retour]

Well, there's a place where your a copy of yourself and get incinerated if you leave.... Um... there's places they do weird tests on you, places where they operate on you, was a place they didn't just make you sleep with people, but made you a prostitute....

I can think up more if I have to.

[Yeah she knows it's a losing point.]

[ibarakasen]

Those are hardly 'worse' - merely 'similar in magnitude but fundamentally different'.

[higan_retour]

I guess....

Well, then everywhere is just bad.

[ibarakasen]

So it seems. I am simply going to be as obstinate as I can.
