The Day of Thunder

Anyone with an older character (50+) got a slot free after the picking of the Thunders? Chu needs an Adult to talk to

"It's quite the work. Alone it would have taken too long to do it all, but with everyone working together we've been able to make it happen so quickly..." Chuchu's eyes take on a strange shine while she examines their work -- as if reflecting a meteor shower. The world slows to a crawl as she raise...

Kumori takes Chuchu’s hand and the pickle with a kind nod and will eat the pickle at the appropriate moment. She'll find it callused heavily. Chuchu lets Akutou hold the jar so she can hold both hands. She squeezes and, softly, murmurs under her breath, "It's okay. If you let yourself get scared sc...

" Kay-kay! " Chuchu first offers to Kumori -- for she is favored! -- before scampering to Akutou, whose distress grows more palpable by the moment. "Eat eat with me?" She cheeps. "And hold my hand!" After inhaling another, she cheeps, " Grandmother, I have a question too! " Her eyes turn briefly to ...

"I see. Maybe I can you and the others back on board my ship. My home has a giant forest in it, and I heard the Isawa tribe believed the wood had special properties for the magic. I figure I can also bring some for your Rememberers. If it is good, then we can open a trade route between our peoples....

"Aye. Hopefully, it will be impressive enough." Tadaka thinks for a moment. "Do you have a planned route home?" "Of course it will be!" He wouldn't have attracted a shaman's attention and gained one's help if there wasn't something special about him. Chuchu giggles at the thought, excited at the pr...

"I have talked to my uncle about forming a great Family like Matsu did. Except instead of great warriors, they would be sailors. It was originally to strengthen my Name. Now, I'm going to do it because I think it will be best for the Spider. I still want to do right by my uncle, my Clan, and my chi...

"Oh, I have done as much as I can for elemental magic for the ritual. But since the Enemy is of Dream and Rot, maybe your magic might offer more to it? To really drive the Rot away from the Dream?" "Yes! I had considered that," She answers, chitter-purring from the grooming. "That that would be goo...

"You'll need to eat and be strong for the day. Our great ritual to seal away the Rot is almost done, it just needs your special magic." Her fur is very soft, though a little bit of dirt roughens its texture -- even with the blanket she's couldn't help getting messy from her night under the roots. S...

"Eggs, rice, bamboo shoots, water chestnuts, carrots, cabbage, eggplant. Sesame seeds. I hope you can eat these?" Listening intently, Chuchu does her best to work over each word, turning them around with her mouth; they whistle and chirp and chatter, their pronunciation almost bird-like. It seems t...

"Hungry, little one?" Oh, she brought her some food! Chuchu's nose goes into overdrive as she creeps forward to sniff out its scent. Eggs... and rice..? And other things... with another stretch she stands to meet Satsuki eye-to-eye. "Yeshh!" She half-whistles before holding out her hands to take th...

It takes some time for Satsuki to find the little shaman. Chuchu's made herself a little nest under the roots of a tree in the encampment, which someone helpfully points out when she calls for her. Upon inspection it seems she dug a hole out under the tree and lined it with a blanket. She stirs as t...

"I met the shaman who took my Name. Apparently, I broke into his house while drunk and made a mess of things. We talked. I guess I asked for it. Literally. He was trying to help me." Tadaka gives a sad chuckle. "The Name Hantei Tadaka was to great for me to bear. I needed my own path to become a be...

If anybody who hasn't rolled for the event yet would like a Blessing for a temporarily Lucky reroll, let me know! Will Bless anybody who hasn't rolled yet, just tell me the slot (EM + MM are taken for Chuchu and the Thunder choosing slot ofc)

Chuchu tries very very hard to explain things to the villagers. Her handwriting is... not great. Her grammar and spelling... also not great. (She'd run around the Imperial camp asking random adults to help her, and her note has lots of added notes correcting spelling and grammar if not writing out w...

"Chuchu-sama, do I seem different to you?"

"Yes!" She cheeps out, scampering over to meet the newly-made man. Immediately the nezumi starts sniffing him as if that might answer her questions. Instead it makes her tilt her head. Looking up at him, the shaman asks, "What did you dream?"

"Perhaps even more than a day." Hikaru murmured; he and Satsuki were still hand in hand. "After all, as my wife said, we have a great deal to celebrate." Hikaru flashed a quick grin; he very much enjoyed saying that word, wife . The nezumi's ears perk at Hikaru's words. She mumbles something about ...

“… I thank you for your part in this battle and the blessings you bestow to our people. You have fulfilled the promise your Chief-of-Chiefs extended to my father to help us fight this evil… And I name you a friend of humans for now and always." Chu starts from her sleep in Sora's arms to look at Ku...

The ratling gets up from her place beside the Imperial to creep closer toward Reo. She looks back to Sora, and then to Reo, then Sora again, tail up all the way as she cheeps before scurrying back to him. Name magic! It looks like NAME MAGIC!

Akutou grins and surrenders it to her. She opens the jar, steals a single pickle to eat herself, and then offers the rest to Grandmother, her tail wagging. The Transcendent don't have to eat, of course -- but one honors the Transcendent by offering them something old (or something new) to help stre...
