Pity how things come and go so quickly here. The events of the last curse, so to speak, was quite enjoyable, though it would be much more enjoyable with the presence of my long-lost rival. [ a smirk, short lived but the memories of his rivalry which come with it are quite enjoyable. ]

This place has once again returned to normal.

Well as normal as a bubble beneath the waves ever could be. [ somehow this place still amuses the war god. He muses with a large grin as the SFC shuts off. ]

[ here, have the war god, sitting in his living room with a familiar red bowl of sake. On the table sits Shingen fluff. It's moved off the fireplace mantle after Moses the cat got curious and attempted to steal the fluff. ]

The population seems to have doubled over night, yet the world in which we now live seems never to be overcrowded. Such an interesting ebb and flow of residents and the bubble. A curious place it is, beyond comprehension and description, a place which undoubtedly holds many secrets.

[ he pauses for a sip of sake out of his dinnerplate-sized sake cup ]

I do wonder if within the influx arrived Kasuga, Keiji, or perhaps the Tiger of Kai. [ a small smirk accompanies the mention of his rival, the lord of Kai ] To the new arrivals, I am Uesugi Kenshin of Echigo.

A pity to see the bubbles disappear. Images of Shingen-dono, Kasuga, and Keiji were quite pleasant company. Once again, new faces appear yet still no sign of them.

Also, Selphie has safely returned home.

[ here, have a Kenshin, serious, emotionless, and cold. Beside him is a bubble running through his rivalry with Takeda Shingen (something like this) and Moses the cat is curled up miserably on his lap. He's turning the Shingen fluff over in his hands. While his rivalry is a pleasant and warming thought, something has once again chilled his heart. ]

Selphie is missing. Never did she return last night, yet I feel something is amiss. Any information on her whereabouts is greatly appreciated.

[ As a samurai lord, he's accustomed to losses, but not on his side. There are reasons he's a war god, but it doesn't mean that he doesn't feel each loss, especially one so close to him.

He draws his fingers to his lips, sending a silent prayer to Bishamonten, before the feed shuts off. ]

By Bishamonten's grace, I do hope all have survived the last battle. The city seems rather devoid of locals as of late. Even the small dinosaur which had once taken up residence in the kitchen is gone, as well. Battles can be harsh though surviving means recovery and restoration.

And with loss once again come new arrivals. I do wonder if Shingen-dono or Kasuga are among them.

The sun did not rise, the world is overcast. Dragons have begun to roam the bubble. One has even taken up residence in the kitchen.

[ he turns the SFC to show a very small bipedal dinosaur in his kitchen. It's trying its best to be vicious but is beaten back when the bold Moses smacks it on the nose. He turns the SFC back to himself. ]

It is a wonder what brought them here. Dragons normally dwell in temples or water, creatures of great and unimaginable power. Yet these dragons do not look like the dragons in Japan. They are much different, possibly aggressive and vicious.

I do wonder their origins and their intentions. May Bishamonten protect us and guide the dragons back to their homes.

[ There's more stuff in the background now. There's an addition of a fish tank with goldfish, a giant stuffed critter, and the Shingen fluff. He sits at the usual table on his knees with a black and white kitty curled up in his lap. ]

The carnival, despite its unusual origins, was quite enjoyable. The games are entertaining, the food unusual yet delicious. In addition to Moses-kun, there are three goldfish added to the growing family.

In the days since the carnival, I have acquired a shogi board. Who here would enjoy a friendly game?

[ his voice is calm and collected, his demeanor somewhat serious. On his lap sits a familiar black and white fuzzy lump, purring loudly as Kenshin delicately scritches his ears. ]

The shadow bubble has merged with our own sometime overnight. With it arrived another quarter of Vatheon and a rather unusual festival with people painted strangely as if they wish to scare away oni. It is somewhat late for Setsubun, though Vatheon may need the cleansing and blessings of such a ceremony.

These people seem to pose no threat other than repeatedly offering me some unusual creation called a balloon animal.

[ ooc: Geisha appeared over a century after Kenshin's death, else they'd be badly dressed geisha XD ]

Such a dark cloud dwells on the horizon. 'tis almost as if.... No, impossible. The dead cannot rise again.

Regardless, the new arrival on the far side of the bubble has me concerned. The air grows cool nearby, the feeling of being watched yet no one present. Certainly it is something to observe in order to discern it as a potential enemy or simply another anomaly.

If another battle shall arise, manifesting to counter a supernatural threat, the war god shall be there to greet it.

[ here, have the warlord sitting someways back, sitting on his feet in seiza position, with a black and white cat on his lap. He looks very content there and Kenshin seems to have no intention of moving him. Kenshin scritches his ears and he purrs loudly ]

I had been searching for familiar names among the roster yet instead I find friendship with this small creature. Moses is his name. He seems to have found a home on my lap, and I have no intention of moving him. Quite a lovely cat he is.

For those who have recently arrived, I am Uesugi Kenshin, lord of Echigo. A pleasure.

[ here, have a Kenshin drinking tea on his porch. ]

Many have gone as swiftly as they arrived. Perhaps this is the normal ebb and flow of such a place. My house has become one short, my neighbor gone as well. Such is life, filled with losses and gains, ups and downs much like the ebb and flow of a battlefield.

Though new faces have arrived, new names upon the contact list, not a one which I recognize. I find myself longing for word of Echigo or even the status of Japan, something to set my heart still. I shall simply continue to wait.

For those who know not of me, I am Uesugi Kenshin, daimyo of Echigo. A pleasure. May Bishamonten watch over you.

Valentine's is certainly an interesting festival, quite different from any I have attended in Japan. I have never danced as such before, nor sampled the wide variety of chocolate, a food I would certainly not mind eating once again.

[ and now time for some random musings. ]

On another note, this creation called a thermos is quite practical. While difficult to pronounce, its quite perfect to keep tea warm in places where a fire proves impractical. Certainly such a creation would prove useful while the troops are mobile, if such a thing were to exist back home.

[ yes, he keeps sake in his thermos :D ]

[ concerned war god is concerned. have it a poetic concern (since writing poetry at the start of a new year is tradition (and historically, Kenshin loved poetry). Thankfully Japanese poetry doesn't rhyme.) ]

The first sunrise of the new year,
A beautiful and joyous occasion.
Though as beautiful as the sunrise may be,
Concern has clouded the sunrise.
Something amiss, dark clouds on the horizon,
Changing what should be into the opposite,
A bright sunrise to a cloudy day.

[ he pauses for a brief moment. ]

Certainly the world grows mad. Or perhaps this is a "gift" from the mysteries of Vatheon. I hope this is not a foreshadow of the year to come, giving us poor luck at the start of a fresh year. May Bishamonten protect us all.

[ He hasn't been affected by a rumor. Yet. :D ]

[ Here, have the warlord, peaceful in his living room again, drinking the last of the sake in the house. ]

Vatheon sees quite a bit of excitement, does it not? A siege against a common foe and a festival to bring fortune and prosperity for the upcoming year. This land is feeling more and more like home. Battles, festivals, and peace. Certainly Vatheon knows how to prevent a samurai's skills from atrophying.

Regardless, the peace is quite welcomed, though short-lived as it surely may be.

[ yeah, far too much like home. ]

Selphie-dono, Ranmaru, are you both settling in well?

echigo_wargod: (pray)
[ here have a confused warlord being confused by these foreign things. ]

I have heard several mentions of Valentine's. Yet another unfamiliar celebration, though if it is as festive as Christmas, then it may be quite enjoyable. I have heard several mentions of something called chocolate as well.

Personally, however, I wish to celebrate the coming of the new year, which is traditionally around this time for Japan, or at least for my world. I offer my prayers to Bishamonten to watch over this foreign world and protect it.

[ he offers a small prayer before continuing. ]

Selphie, if you require assistance moving, please inform me.

Ranmaru, please inform me of your plans, as well.

[ here, have a rather calm Kenshin, this time with tea (yes, he drinks something other than sake). ]

Over the last month since my arrival, I find myself increasingly aware of how much Kasuga does for me on a regular basis. With the influx of new residents, I have yet to see a soul from Echigo. Not Kasuga or Kanetsugu, or even Keiji. Even Shingen-dono would be a welcomed sight.

However, as I cannot ascertain how much time shall pass before my beautiful blade returns to me, I now find myself in need of an assistant, perhaps a retainer even. I require one who is organized and well-kept, one who understands how to follow his heart but remains honorable, one who is peaceful but can fight on a moment's notice. Cooking skills would be most appreciated. Gender matters not to me, nor does one's past.

As money has no worth in Vatheon, I cannot offer koku in return for service but instead a place to live and companionship.

[ he takes a sip of tea. ]

To those who have just arrived, I am Uesugi Kenshin of Echigo. A pleasure.

[ ooc: to those i haven't chatted with, I'm Sam. I only play this guy, Uesugi Kenshin from Sengoku Basara (anime). My aim's Satrugha. I'm always up for plotting. I have historical information on Kenshin on his profile if your char's a history buff. ]

[ Kenshin appears, in his living room, the red fluff behind him on the mantle. ]

A swift victory for us. A strange entity as their leader destroyed. The ghosts, however, remain though are much less aggressive. [ a pause. ] As docile as pirates may be. One has more than once attempted to pilfer my sake. Diligent he is, despite my attacks against him. Perhaps I shall place several wards about my house to keep him at bay.

[ he takes a sip of sake. ]

With all the new arrivals, I do wonder if I shall see a familiar face among them. To those who have recently arrived, I am Uesugi Kenshin of Echigo.

[ the SFC suddenly clatters on as it falls from Kenshin's pocket. Ice shoots past the camera before Kenshin lands on his feet delicately. ]

They certainly have not the strength of demons. Hardly a chance the Demon King has arrived.

[ he sheathes his sword and picks up the SFC. ]

These pirates are very susceptible to elements, particularly in large groups. Magic or the like should be equally effective.

Should anyone need assistance, please inform me. May Bishamonten protect us all.

[ he turns off the SFC ]

[ooc: action welcome :D ]

Quite a noise last night. [ you can bet Kenshin had sprung out of bed last night ready to fight an army ] How strange to see a ship impaled in the bubble, though no signs of movement or crew. Curious how it arrived there in such a condition. A failed invasion, perhaps? It bears no recognizeable crests, though my mind did quickly drifted to the Demon of the Seas. I do wonder from where it originated.

Regardless this fog presents poor visibility. Bishamonten protect and guide us.

[ Kenshin appears, his living room in the background. The Shingen fluff is on the mantle. ]

If the calendar is similar here as Japan, then the new year shall be upon us soon. I wonder what the Shougatsu festivities are like here. I have yet to see signs of kadomatsu or bells to welcome in the new year and bring upon us good fortune and prosperity. I shall look for the supplies to make a small kadomatsu and place it outside my door. I do hope somewhere I may find them.

[ he brings up his hand, two fingers raised for a prayer. ] I can only hope Bishamonten can hear my prayers to protect us here and in Japan.

[ and with that, he shuts off the video ]

[ ooc: kadomatsu and shougatsu ]
