Inkblot 4

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

[Remember that demon tree Ammy brought last time? She appears near it again, only this time she's in the form of a beautiful human woman. Her hair is long and white, and the same red markings are around her eyes and face. She's wearing a furisode (kimono with long sleeves) of very pale green with a pattern of sakura branches and chickadees. She looks over the single tree and reaches up to rub her chin with delicate-looking fingers.]

It's very lonely-looking, isn't it? This simply won't do.

[A simple ink brush materializes in her hand and she presses the end of the handle to her lips contemplatively, like a painter scoping out her canvas.]

Some more trees, I think. Some flowers...perhaps a bit of water. [She smiles.] Yes.

[Only psychics or those attuned to such things will be able to see her work. She lifts the brush and makes several dots near the lone tree. Trees sprout from the dots--sakura, plum, pine, maple, and so on, until there's a tiny forest of trees, all of which are healthy and in bloom. Amaterasu then drags the brush over the ground around the base of the trees, and flowers, grass and small plants sprout as well. She looks over her handiwork and nods.]

[She disappears for a minute or so, and when she returns there's a small creek wending its way through the little forest.]

And for the finishing touches...

[Amaterasu paints tiny dashes in the air above the forest and from out of nowhere a light drizzle falls, making the leaves and blossoms glisten. Amaterasu beams and the brush in her hand disappears.]

Very nice, I think. Though I'm amazed that such simple work has tired me so...

[She walks forward and then settles down in the grass beneath a particularly tall maple, gathering the furisode around her.]

Ah, and now is as good a time as any. I should like to speak to those little Twins, if they are about~

[Woah woah woah... forget the scenery, look at who the hell is making it appear!]

Amaterasu?

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

Ah, hello, Mu! [Smiles up at him.] I hope that your injury is no longer troubling you?

[Headtilt.] Oh! I suppose you have not seen me in this form yet, have you~?

[lamb_of_gold]

It is tender, but healed over.

I have not. It's....impressive.

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

I am glad. You are not in any pain, are you? I could fetch you something if you are.

[Hides her mouth behind a hand and giggles in a show of "modesty."] Well, thank you, Mu.

[Have a stunned Andromeda Saint staring at the plants]

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

[Smiles brightly at him.]

Do you like it, Shun~?

[shunofandromeda.livejournal.com]

[Jumps a little] Y..yes. It's beautiful. [Trying not to stare because he has never seen her in human form before, although he does recognize Amaterasu]

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

I am glad! [Smiles at him a bit mischievously.] I haven't startled you with this form, have I?

[twelvemasks.livejournal.com]

[Someone made a forest :|]

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

[Beaming at him,] Hello, Minato Arisato~

[twelvemasks.livejournal.com]

Hello. [Touches a tree. Yep, it's real.]

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

You have been well, I hope? [Watches him touch the tree.] Ah, the apple tree from before seemed lonely on its own. I thought I would give it some company~

[stronguponme.livejournal.com]

[Watched the whole thing intently. Wowed rather considerably.]

Impressive.

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

[Smiles back at him, only the slightest bit guarded.] I thank you, Jackie Estacado~

[stronguponme.livejournal.com]

[Of course, has drawn the connection by now]

What prompted you to do this, Amaterasu?

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

Well! The apple tree looked very lonely all on its own. I thought I would give it some company~

[madamemoiselle]

Ah...{Not sure if Diva can see her work or not, but Amaterasu is pretty enough and wearing nice enough clothes to draw the same reaction really} How pretty...

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

[Smiles.] I thank you, young one~ [Rather wolf-like headtilt.] I do not believe I have met you before. No indeed; I think I would remember a scent as interesting as yours. [Doesn't realize that this might be rude now that she's not a wolf :\]

[madamemoiselle]

{Diva just smiles. Amaterasu isn't the only one with a sensitive nose, after all} No, I would have remembered someone like you. My name is Diva. Ah, but I smell interesting how exactly?

[cyfor.livejournal.com]

[Jumps in the water and sneezes as it goes up her nose]

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

[Giggles, and is ready to pull her out if she starts drowning.] Be careful, little one~

[cyfor.livejournal.com]

It's wet! You made it wet!

[realitymods]

[they're looking around, quite curious] Wow...

What is it?

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

Ah, hello there~ [Headtilt.] As odd a scent as ever. I suppose we haven't been properly introduced; I am Amaterasu, sun goddess of Nippon, though I'm sure you know that. May I ask your names?

[Smiles.] I just had a few things I wished to discuss with you.

[realitymods]

[girl Twin~] I'm Lapis!

[boy Twin~] And I'm Lazuli!

[both bow] We're happy to discuss things. What is it?
