March 2022 IC Mingle



MAIN NAVIGATION
1. WELCOMING COMMITTEE
cw: optional aphro in Tamamo Clan prompt
The influx of Lost Souls means the factions need to have a little welcoming party of sorts. The leaders of each faction each send a message to their new recruits, telling them to meet at their respective headquarters.
The Shuten Clan directs their new recruits to the Arena. There’s plenty of food and booze to go along with the exhibition matches from the toughest fighters they’ve got. Enjoy the view or get involved in an arena fight, if you’re feeling spicy. If bloodsport isn’t your cup of tea, there’s a number of gambling games to partake in, too – don’t worry, your money isn’t at stake here, unless you want it to be.
The Tamamo Clan recruits are sent to the brothel Mizukume. Hosts of all sorts are there to fill your every need. If you’re not one to be doted on, there’s also exotic dancers in every state of undress for you to look at. You may be tasked with being a host or a dancer yourself. If you’re not in the mood for that, there’s plenty of food from Tamamo-controlled restaurants to eat and seemingly endless drinks. The drinks may or may not have a little something extra in them, so check the labels carefully.
The Sutoku Alliance meets at the nightclub Konoha. It’s truly a celebration with an enormous amount of fast food from every joint in their district and an equal amount of cheap drinks. Sing your heart out with live band karaoke – don’t worry about them not knowing your song, they seem to have a depth of knowledge beyond this world. Once that settles down, there’s plenty of dancing to do or you can be a wallflower, whatever suits your mood.
The Department of the Enma meets at a meeting room on the top floor of Kaigo no Bou. The room is uncomfortably opulent and wouldn’t be out of place in a Heian imperial court. Fine silk tapestries cover the walls, richly lacquered wood is inlaid with gold, and it all feels like it was decorated by someone with more money than taste. There’s fine food and even finer drink available. Various multi-armed youkai play in a jazz band, playing their instruments in a much more complicated manner than strictly necessary. Stretch your legs and dance. Take a peek out the window for a bird’s eye view of the city. If the interior is too stuffy for you, escape to the roof for some fresh air – just be careful not to fall off.
2. PARTY TIME
CW: optional aphro
After everyone’s had their fill of food, drink, and entertainment: the party isn’t over. They’re told to make their way to Konoha with the instruction to show their faction’s pride. That’s a careful way to tell them to raise hell. Upon arrival, all recruits are provided with an advance on their pay by The Enma. Food is provided by the Shuten Clan, a variety of all sorts of meaty foods. Drinks are provided by the Tamamo Clan, but be wary because some may have that special Tamamo kick to them (read: aphro). It’s technically a neutral meeting place, but there’s almost certain to be a fight sooner or later. Entertain yourself, meet the other factions, and raise some Hell.

I'm sure they're great people, though.
[Dante eventually says once his alcohol-addled brain starts functioning again. He was about to reach for a bottle of water when Azem mentions something about "Soul Sight". The devil hunter blinks his eyes owlishly at the term, suddenly grateful that Azem lacks the ability to peer into his soul. She probably would've run away screaming if she knew what kind of monster he is.]
Well, I do possess a little bit of something. [He states with a lazy smile.] Between my magnetic charms and good looks, I guess you could say I'm magical.
[He jokes before suddenly holding out his right hand before him. In a flash of fiery embers, giant black greatsword forms within it causing quite a stir at their table. He accidentally knocked over a few bottles with that little stunt of his, along with almost poking some dude's eye out.]
Sorry, sorry! I just showing off.
[He laughs sheepishly once the dude at the other end of the table starts cussing him the hell out in their native tongue.]
no subject
They are, they really are. [ There's a soft, sad smile on her lips as she finally turns her attention fully back to him.
At least, there's something to distract from her potentially falling into thoughts she'd rather not have right now. ]
Oh?
[ She watches the chaos unfold as he summons the sword. Laughing at the near bloodshed. ] That is quite a trick! I could create weapons as well, though that magic much like the rest of my magics, has been greatly weakened. Now, this is about the best I can do.
[ She holds up her hand. There's a little shimmer of light before a crystalline letter opener appears in her hand. ]
no subject
T-That's all you can do? [He stutters while trying his best to hold back his chuckle.] Oh, I'm...ahaha! I mean, I'm sorry but that's pretty—
[Pathetic. It’s legitimately pathetic but honestly kind of cute. Dante can’t help but smile as he summons away his sword. The last thing he wants is to accidentally nick someone with this nasty-looking blade. While he certainly does have a devil may care persona, Dante has a conscience.]
I can summon a few other weapons but it takes a lot out of me.
[He explains with a lighthearted chuckle.]
It didn’t before but I guess that’s just how it is now.
no subject
I'll have you know I could create some amazing things before. [ Absolutely indignant. ] This is just what I've been left with.
[ She sighs and twirls the letter opener with an expertise that suggests she knows her way around a knife. Or dagger as the case may be. ]
In much the same way you can summon that sword I used to be able to create a myriad of weapons from nothing whenever I needed them. In addition to that, I could create familiars and other creatures. Basically, if I could imagine it I could create it. Now I'm limited to trinkets.
[ She sighs and tosses the blade upward, leaning back so it lands point end in the table just before. ]
I would say you got lucky.
no subject
[Between all the protesting and the angry chipmunk face, Dante is hysterically laughing into his glass. It takes him a moment to calm himself but once he does, he gives poor Azem an apologetic smile. He needed that laugh, girl.]
Okay, so we're both kinda screwed in the magical weapon summoning department.
[He comments while trying his best not to bust out laughing again once Azem starts twirling that fancy letter opener. It's the funniest thing he's seen since arriving here.]
Some more so than others but yeah, I did get kinda lucky.
[Dante states with a lopsided grin. While he won't go into details as to what else he can do, he's certainly nowhere near his peak anymore.]
But there's one thing this place can't take away from us and would be our dignity.
no subject
[ She pries the letter opener from the table and lets it dissipate into aether. ]
That's true enough. I suppose if being outnumbered and getting beat up can't take your dignity, nothing will. [ She chuckles, grinning across the table at him. ]
no subject
Speaking from experience, Azem? If so, I didn't take you for a brawler.
[He teases while giving the woman a playful wink. While Azem does seem like the prim and proper type, something about her reminds him a little bit of himself. Maybe she's a "wild child" like him who likes to get into a scrap or two. Who knows? Whatever the case, Dante is curious to know more about her.]
What's your profession, if you don't mind me asking.
[Dante questions with an arched brow.]
I doubt you're some sort of pencil pusher.
no subject
How else do you think a gal gets a scar like this? [ She points to her right cheek. There's a long scar there that nearly starts at the inner corner of her eye and passes diagonally to her jaw. ] I thought it was a bit too cool to heal away. [ She chuckles. ]
Oh, never. [ She waves the very idea away. Sure, she had to do her fair share of paperwork, but she tried to put it off as long as she could. Emet-Selch never let her put it off too long, though. Ever the responsible friend. ]
I held the Fourteenth Seat of the Convocation of Fourteen. As such, it was my duty to travel the star and keep an eye out for threats. I was usually meant to report them back to the Convocation so they could come to a consensus on what to do, but more often than not I just dealt with it on my own.
no subject
[Listen, Dante can admire a good scar or two. If it wasn't for his rapid healing, he probably would've been horribly scarred up by now. He was a bit reckless in his youth and even now in his forties, Dante is still just as reckless.]
Don't tell me you've been fighting tigers and bears, Azem. Sounds like you're addicted to danger.
[He's really curious about her, especially since Azem seems rather capable. Not only can she heal herself, but she can also fight. That's a rare combination.]
The Convocation? [Well, that's not a word he typically hears. Dante lets out a low whistle.] Boy, that sounds important. More important than being a devil hunter.
[Yeah, he's a hunter for hire. Is she surprised? Probably not since Dante is still strapped. The girls are sitting right at his hip. He doesn't go anywhere without Ebony & Ivory. They're his prized positions, the last gift he received from the famous Nell Goldstein.]
no subject
Something like that. [ She grins. ] There are a lot of dangerous creatures and other stuff. Why once I fought a volcano. [ Which sounds absolutely ridiculous. ]
It is. The Convocation was in charge of making the laws of the star. It was our job to ensure everything ran smoothly and everyone was safe. Though being a devil hunter sounds exciting.
[ Far more exciting than meetings and paperwork and whatever else she had to do when she wasn't traveling. ]
