( she tilts her head in confusion. what in the name of the gods is skateboarding? ) What is ... Skateboarding?

( amaterasu is left just as confused and lost as her new friend is -- friend, even though she doesn't know his name or anything else about him. she sighs, setting her elbow to her knee and her chin into her palm at the sight of the newer of the two foxes. ) What are we supposed to do with these? Are they... pets?

( her own fennekin opens it's mouth-- amaterasu is expecting a howl or a bark, but instead, the creature just states it's name with a soft, sweet fennekin! ) --what did this dog just say?

[Oh....

oh no.

Amaterasu, what have you done? Why would you ever ask that? At first Reki is stunned that she's completely in the dark about the sport, but then again Langa was pretty oblivious when they'd first met too. If there was on person on this planet that was only oooo so willing to explain this subject to her it was Reki.]

You really don't know? [His eyes seemed to sparkle with newfound light as he balled a fist to the side of his face and spouted his praises] It's only the most versatile, thrilling sport to ever have been invented! If you're from Takamagahara you at least know what skiing is, right? Or Snowboarding? Skateboarding is like a snowboard with wheels, so you can literally skate anywhere. If I had my board here... I could show you.... I can make one but I'd need some supplies and a little time... I'm not even sure they have the parts here...

[It's cool. He'd consider her a friend too under the circumstances. Names can come later... or name. She's given hers already] I guess? What else could they be... I'm just not sure why anyone would just hand someone a pet and shove them out into the street.

[Reki squinted at the animal and tilted his head to one side] Um... I'm not sure. [His own Fennekin pranced over to meet with Amaterau's giving an excited sounding yip of it's own which... also sounded like Fennekin.] You know.. they are kind of cute though.

( wow... that sure was a reaction. not one for listening to long explanations, amaterasu is bored about halfway through and looks to the pokemon again, wondering about them and what to do about them. does... she even have food for it? how much food does it need? wait, does it need food? ) ... What's skiing? ( why did you ask... )

Maybe "mom" didn't want the pet anymore because "mom" is lazy and wants someone else to take care of it for "mom?" ( she drums her fingers against her cheek. ) They are cute, though. Maybe we can find someone to ask about what to do with them?

[How you break his heart, Amaterasu.] What's skiing?! [Who cares about skiing?! Luckily for her, he is not near as adamant about that sport, and he can tell she ignored 90% of what he said so he drops it. It's just like when he tries to talk to his classmates at school...] Whatever. Skateboarding isn't for everyone, I get it.. but you're missing out.

Uh... that's sick, but it's possible? Why do these moms have so many pets if they don't want them in the first place? [That's pretty cold] I don't think we have any alternatives. Oh.. hey. I just realized that I never told you my name. I'm Reki Kyan. You can just call me Reki... If we're going to be trying to figure this out together it would be better if you had something to call me.

( amaterasu waves her hands a bit flippantly. it isn't that she doesn't want to listen to him talking about skateboarding, it's more that she just doesn't have the attention span for it. ) Amaterasu will figure it out some other time!

No idea! All that Amaterasu knows is that, that "mom" was definitely not my mom. So, maybe they are crazy mean people since they're pretending to be our moms. ( oh right, introductions! she smiles when he gives her his name and nods. ) I am Amaterasu, the mighty rising sun Kami! It is a pleasure to meet you, Reki.

[That may well be but that wasn't how it was perceived, so her later enthusiasm was also confusing. They did have more important issues to deal with first.. so maybe she was right.]

Yeah... what was up with that anyway? [Why go to that level of crazy?] I mean, it's not like we wouldn't notice they were the wrong body type or had the wrong voice.. [~~Cough. He missed that initially. She doesn't need to know that~~] It's nice to meet you too......

........................................................................................................................................ [Abort, Retry, Fail? Reki's brain temporarily shut down when it dawned on him, just how she introduced herself. He was quiet for so long that his Fennekin trotted close enough to peer up at his face as if it were checking to see if he was alright]

Amaterasu's mother is nothing like the "mom" in there. Mother has purple and blue hair, and muuuch bigger-- ( she holds her hands toward her breasts but stops herself before saying it because this kid looks like his brain just broke. )

...Reki?

[Reki is not home now, if you would like you may leave a message after the beep.

~~Beep~~

Silent, and staring when he does finally come to he fires back with a question neither of them likely expected.]

Did you just say your mom has a big rack? [Then after a second thought, he waves his hands through the air as if he could clear that query away entirely.] You mean you're really supposed to be Amaterasu? [That's got to be impossible. It's only lucky for her that Reki is a tad on the superstitious side so he's at least open to listening to her plead her case]

Edited 2023-03-01 04:44 (UTC)

( when he goes silent, she does, too. surely there's a reason and so she keeps to herself but stares holes through his soul because amaterasu is just watching him.

she's not even bothered when he asks her to clarify because: ) Yes! That's what I said! It's true, too. Her ribbon-top barely covers her-- ( ~~amaterasu, stop talking about your mother's chest.~~ ) How very dare you! What do you mean, "supposed to be" ...!? Amaterasu is Amaterasu!

[Between the two revelations it's hard not to burst out laughing at the first one. Not only did she say something she would have kept to herself about her mom, but she confirmed it without hesitation. #RIPAMASMOM]

[He raised his hands defensively as he tried to keep her from going into a full meltdown. Living with three sisters, he knows the risks]

Woah woah.. hey! Don't get offended, alright? I've never really met a deity before so I wouldn't really know it when I did.

( she's all too ready to discuss her mom's bust, it seems. amaterasu really has no idea what boundaries are. when he bursts out laughing, amaterasu can't help but snicker and giggle along with him.

he is smart with this, though. because as soon as she starts getting into a tizzy, he's on top of it and responds as though he believes her -- which is good since she's definitely the deity. ) ...ah! Well, that's expected. It is pretty amazing to meet Amaterasu in the flesh! ( and she's immediately back to being high and mighty. )

[That's sure not true in the reverse. That's the last thing he'd want to talk about concerning his own mom.

When he gets himself under control, he has to wipe a tear from one eye.] Course it is! Especially in some random place like this. [Hey, he'll just keep playing along and keep the peace] You're a lot younger than I expected.

( she's not bothered by much when it comes to her mom, apart from her being dead and all -- or rather she should be dead. things are complicated with ~~gods~~ kamis. )

That's fair... It is pretty random, hmm? ( it's best that he placate her -- especially because it's really her and all. she shrugs lightly. ) Bah! Amaterasu is much older than Amaterasu looks. It's hard to really put an age on the sun. ( not really, it's about 4.6 billion years. )

[It's a good thing she didn't say any of that out loud. Especially the dead part. Only the dead part. If there was one thing that creeped Reki out it was ghosts, spirits, and dead people walking around like it's natural to do so.]

Definitely. [Maybe the longer he was here, he would come to believe that but right now... she's just cute girl with big delusions. There's no harm in letting her have this] I guess it's like this, you're a deity so you an look however you want.

Edited 2023-03-02 04:36 (UTC)

( oops! good thing indeed. gods are weird, anyway. it's like one day they're alive, the next they've died and the one after that, back again! )

Speaking about being in a random place, we should look into what we're even supposed to do! ( she doesn't mind the small talk because it's nice but she's still not sure what the hey-diddle-diddle-heck is going on here. ) Oh! Yes, that too. Although really Amaterasu just mostly looks like Amaterasu's sister, Tsukuyomi! ( twins, eh? )

[So.. it's like a soap opera?]

Isn't that part a little obvious? I mean, I don't plan on staying here if I can help it. [Besides, he has a little trouble with authority anyway. People are always telling him to do the opposite of what he'd rather do... looking at you school faculty.]

I'm sorry. Did you say sister? [Isn't Tsukuyomi supposed to be a guy?]

[Remembering her temper from earlier, he quickly added] You know what, I've never met Tsukuyomi either. My mistake.

( pretty much, yes. )

Neither do I! "Mom" is too creepy to stick around! ( again, not her mother. she sets her hands on her hips though. ) Where should we start again?... ( if only amaterasu pays attention... spoiler: she doesn't. )

Eh? Yes, Tsukuyomi is my sister! We're twins! ( tsukuyomi is, technically, male but in her world there are a lot of kamis who aren't the "right" gender. it is what it is. )

[Sounds complicated]

[Shooting a glance over his shoulder back to the house he woke up in] Tell me about it.. what was up with that. [Let's just put some distance between "mom" and us] Uh.. right. [Fumbling around with his bag he draws out the Pokégear thing] This might give us a hint...

So you have a sister you have to deal with too... try having three. [He loves them, but.. yeah]

( mos things with ~~gods)~~

... actually, how come we both had a "mom" that we woke up to? That is very weird and creepier even ... ( was everyone else getting to meet "mom," too? that would just capitalize on the weirdness about arriving here. ) Oh! What's that anyway? Do you know? ( she knows that he's arriving here at the same time but perhaps he looked at it before she did. she's the one who ran into him after all. )

Wow! You have three sisters? Amaterasu has a twin, like I said, and a brother! ( technically, kagutsuchi is also her sister ~~but the canon doesn't seem to think so since it's never mentioned.~~ ) I bet having three sisters is a lot... having one brother is a lot for me. Susano-o is sooo annoying.

Hey you're right. It would be different if only one of us experienced that- but both of us?! [This was crossing a line, and it wasn't the sort Reki wanted to.] I've heard some folk tales.. about this spirit of a woman that kidnaps children.. and.... [.. and he better not say more than that. Unconsciously he was leaning further away from the house he started in] I have no idea. [..but he tinkers with it a little, fiddling with some dials and poking some buttons.]

Sure do, and they can be a handful. [They likely would say the same thing about their older brother] ... but I guess I wouldn't trade them for anything.

( she's really not sure she likes the idea of it either. she arches her brow to the red head as he gets into tales of myths and tilts her head. ) What myth is that one? ( she's curious now. buuut she also doesn't want to go back to that creepy "not-mom" so she's steering clear from the house too. ) Hmm... Amaterasu is just as lost as you are with the gear thing. Maybe we should just press all the buttons!

That's how it is with Susano-o, but, hmnn... Amaterasu supposes she wouldn't trade him either.

[A deep sigh] I'm not really good with this kind of thing... [Ghosts, spooks, creepypastas... none of it. It just creeps him out wayyyy too much.] Let's just get out of here so it doesn't become a reality.

Hey! Careful with that.. you don't know how delicate it could- [About the time that he cautions her, Amaterasu seems to get the map to pop up.] Wait! That's it!

[To this little tidbit he smiles, then his lips part into a full amused grin] The things we have to put up with, right?

Oh, well. That's okay! Maybe someone else can tell me in the future. ( either way, there are other things to worry about than mythos. ) Good idea!

( sorry, what was that? she can't hear him over the sound of mashing literally every button she can find on this thing. briefly it records the pair of them before changing to the dex where all the information on the pokemon themselves are before it finally flips through enough screens that the map pops up. ) Wha-hey! Amaterasu did it! I knew I would.

Right? Siblings~ you cannot live with them or without them!

If they do, just make sure that I'm not within earshot when they tell it. [Reki is the most brave when it comes to ghost stories.]

[There was no stopping her from the frantic button pushing. The expressions that are projected onto the network were probably quite comical for anyone that catches it. Reki was known for his his expressive features and right now he was looking aghast as she risked breaking her pokegear to find something useful. That all melts away when she actually pulls it off.] You can't argue with those results. [He grins at her then looks at the map.] It kind of looks like something out of a video game.... this would be right up Miya's alley. [But the younger skater wasn't here.]

Exactly! I hope they didn't get caught up in all this...

... Are you scared? ( look at her actually noticing something about someone else...

admittedly, it was a bad plan and it's a miracle that she managed to find the map. she's not sure what the hell a "video game" is though. knitting her brow into a frown, she shrugs her shoulders at him. ) What does that mean? "Video game" ..?

Me too... It would be very sad.
