Hello again, my fellow Sirocco inhabitants! I just remembered something of great personal significance. I am, in fact, a priestess! Indeed, a humble disciple of Bishamonten, the divine guardian and punisher of evildoers, shining brightest among the Seven Gods of Fortune.

Are there any among you who would consider undertaking buddhist training? The trials will put your body and spirit to the test, but if you perservere, you may be able to attain enlightenment...

You know,

[Among friends! That dignified manner from before sure disintegrated fast.]

Did you know that, you know,

[Also she seems to have gotten staggeringly fall-down drunk. Again.]

There's some kinda rule for priests, that you aren't supposed to drink alcohol?

[Loud, drunken laughter.]

I don't know any priestshstshs who follow THAT rule! What kinda life would that be?

[TRAINING MONTAGE TIME. The one training is Shou! She's practicing the art of spear combat, with somebody - possibly you! - as her teacher. Her form, her precision, the grace of her attacks...]

[They're all sloppy, at best. If you didn't know any better, you might think she'd never even held a spear before.]

ARGH!

[Shou throws the spear to the ground in a fit of frustration.]

Lousy pointed stick! Why was I holding you when I arrived if I don't have the first idea how to use you?!

'S why 'm not a priest...I think.

Mebbe it's more like...I dun want t' be working for someone else. Tells me wha t'do an' stuff.

[youkai_of_the_tiger]

You wouldn't listen even if a god told you what to do do your face, priest or not.

[not_good_not_wicked]

Probably not.

[youkai_of_the_tiger]

's not like Bishamonten come around to tell me what to do, anyway. More of the spirit of the thing, you know?

[not_good_not_wicked]

Sounds like a pretty lazy god.

[youkai_of_the_tiger]

Thinking about how easy it must be to be a god?

[not_good_not_wicked]

Are you kidding? I'd have to deal with doing miracles for my followers and keeping them happy. Sounds like a pain.

Nah, I like just doing my own thing.

[youkai_of_the_tiger]

Does your own thing involve passing me some more of that wine?

[not_good_not_wicked]

[She pours herself more wine.]

I dunno. I heard from a very reliable source that priests aren't supposed to drink alcohol.

[youkai_of_the_tiger]

Who told you that? What a fake-sounding rule.

[not_good_not_wicked]

Maybe not THAT reliable...

[Wow she's all the way over there. Maybe she can just sorta...roll the bottle towards her.]
