[ Also, this is being filtered away from Yuuto, sorry. ]

This is a bit of an abrupt post.

But it's spirit month.

And kami are included when it comes to celebrating them. I was told that nobody was giving faith to the Space-Time Shrine. Maybe we can fix that.

What does everyone think?

For starters, can I ask what "giving faith" is meant to mean in this situation?

[applehearted]

Starling...?

I'm not entirely sure. I don't know how faith works, exactly, in this world.

[loveedition]

Me neither. I suppose I've never asked.

...Honestly, it may be a good idea to get some ideas from his brother.

[applehearted]

Have you ever met his brother?

[loveedition]

Dimitri? I have. He's kind of prickly, but he's also a space-time kami, if I remember right. Even so, I'm well interested in spreading faith. Yuuto-kun deserves recognition for his hard work.

[ Faith stuff! He knows that! ]

How many followers does the kami of that shrine have? I believe they should be instrumental in supplying faith.

[applehearted]

I don't know.

He has a lot of friends, though... I think.

[hearnoplague]

[ Friends... Hm. ]

That explains the lack of faith, somewhat. Perhaps these friends will have to do. We could have the closest to the kami of Space-Time pray at his temple shrine, if not all of them. Not the fastest method of giving that fellow a decent amount of faith, but the other method I had in mind might make the situation worse.

[ Because for some reason, nobody wants to sacrifice their friends for the greater good! Yes, he's seen this happen a lot. ]

[applehearted]

Maybe.

I don't know if it'd work, though.

[hearnoplague]

What do you mean? Is that not the easiest way to give faith to a being like them?

Ah? Is that so? It's not fair that the two of them aren't getting faith during this time of year. I could encourage people to go support them when they visit my shrine, maybe!

I've been visiting regularly anyway c:

[applehearted]

That is what he told me, at least.

I've never been to that shrine before myself, so I didn't know. I'm not exactly the... religious type, really.

[prismpalette]

Oh I'm not either. The way I look at it is you don't have to like... worship someone to have faith in them. I believe in them as friends and it seems to work just fine.

[applehearted]

"Believe in them as friends"...

What does that mean, exactly?

I'm all for supporting Yuuto, but the guy is just a certain level of humble that you could make organically-farmed humble pie off of him.

He's probably not going to accept Starling or if he does it's going to be begrudging at best. This may be a bit difficult.

[applehearted]

He told me that he doesn't use the Starling for owning anything so he just eats it.

It may be difficult. But not impossible.

Au?

Are you a friend of Yuu-kun's? Is that who you're referencing?

[applehearted]

I'm not sure if I consider myself a friend of his.

But yes. Is there a problem...?

[ai_nnihilate]

Nope, it's A-okie dokie.

No one has ever worried about his shrine before. Well, except Ink-san.

And Fauna-chan, but she was trying to blow it up.

The civilians don't really care about it, since it's not doing anything.

[applehearted]

I think blowing it up is a different kind of worry.

And just because a shrine doesn't do anything doesn't mean that it should be ignored, I think.

[ai_nnihilate]

It's okay! It's durable!

But you're right. It's a shame, really. Yuu-kun works so hard. I don't think that boy realizes how much that worries people.

I'm all for it. We've had a mini celebration for our kami at the Shrine of Sin, I don't mind lending a hand for any of the other shrines.

[applehearted]

Oh, speaking of which.

You wouldn't mind asking your kami if they would mind tours, would you?

[popsometags]

Not at all. I could probably act as a guide as well. I'm used to being something of a tour guide for spirits in the first place.

[applehearted]

I'd really appreciate it. I can't be everywhere at once, after all.
