8th Dusting

[Voice / Action]

[You know she almost, almost signed on for that one mission. A guard, surviving, she knew she could handle it. But then when she saw that "desert" thing. she has no idea what a desert is, so today she is at the library researching that, mostly because she really doesn't have much better to do today. She is clearly in a better mood though- all her earrings are in place (one of them she even thinks might be gold) and she she has a shiny nose stud in place. But... as she learns more and looks into these things more-

..Jesu.

She's gotten over being afraid of the sun (somewhat) in Luceti, mostly because of how dreary winter is, but that desert that... she flips open her journal]

Hey, Luceti. Talk to me 'bout the sun. Some of you got tales for it, right? Gotta.

[Feel free to answer her or see her in the library]

Yeah? Wanna tell it?

There isn't too much to say. Amaterasu was born from the face of a deity, who was purifying himself after leaving the underworld. She came from his left eye along with her brother Tsukuyomi, the moon god. Originally they lived under the same sky, but then he angered her and left to another part of it. Like how the sun is never out at the same time as the moon.

Kinda hokum for sibs to be apart like that though, isn't it?

[...her and Harth... Her and Erin. she has no room to talk]

Hokum? What do you mean by that?

Hokum. Spin. Shit. Wrong.

There was a reason. He killed another goddess, which angered Amaterasu. That is why she left him. She couldn't accept his actions.

[There's a light intake of breath] Ah. That'd do it, suppose.

[The reaction is not missed on Homura's part.]

Is something wrong?

No.

[...]

Dumb move on his part.

[She can't help feeling that's a lie, but she won't push it.]

And without much reason. He didn't like the way she prepared food for him. But, Gods are known to be very confusing to humans and alike.

Hah. Sounds like the Uppers to me.

Well, there wouldn't be stories about suns or moons if they were simply ordinary, right?

[She says with a wistful smile.]

Point. Still, strikes me as kinda hokum gods are going 'round like Uppers people. Not surprise, 'cus, just kinda toy.

Yes. Gods can be strange and very, ah "hokum" as you put it, but some can be benevolent. Amaterasu herself is a kind goddess, if not sometimes stern, and is very important in my culture.

And humans just fine with them going around doing all this slacking stuff?
