Me too,but i still think it's a more viable plan than the other two right now,at least untill we get to a fork or something...

Tomorrow I'm off to a week long trip for work, on a ship in the middle of the sea, so I will have not internet connection. See you later boys and girls

Have fun,Camus! Don't "Rock The Boat" too much.

Hope you have a good trip.

In the meantime, that leaves the rest of us with a week to just role-play.
@Bill From Accounting: Does Jingu have blood when in dove form? This is actually important, since it'll shape Hama's opinion of Jingu and thus Yahata.

Gonna blood bend his bird eh? That's pretty rude.

BBBBBBAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUUUU!
*lowers microphone.Pays her money,then helps her off stage...*

@ Nunya B: Hmmm... I would say Jingu doesn't have blood. She's basically a magical item, which has the benefit of being able to look and move around like a bird when not in use. If Jingu is ever "injured", she sort of leaks divine/magical energies rather than bleed. Most of the time, however, Yahata does treat Jingu like a real bird.

Have a fun and safe trip Camus!

Just to let everybody know,Akihito told everyone what happened to his Village,i just wrote it in a Flashback sequence...

Ahhh, I obviously didn't catch that. Thanks for clarifying!

It's an old style of writing that has the Protagonist telling the story to the other characters,but the Reader's get to see what happened in Flashback.It went out of "style" when the Noir stories stopped being so popular.

To be fair, I see it done more often then youd think. In this instance I just didn't catch the drift.

You know, we seem to keep calling ourselves the Six Virtues- but how many of those do we actually represent?

Hm.
Well.
Uh.

Hey, at least we've got Courage!

Hmmm, I'd say

Soyokaze would be Benevolence, Compassion. ("They help their fellow men at every opportunity. If an opportunity does not arise, they go out of their way to find one.")

Yahata would be Righteousness. ("Believe in justice, not from other people, but from yourself.")

Kuroi would be Honor. ("Warriors have only one judge of honor and character, and this is themselves. Decisions they make and how these decisions are carried out are a reflection of who they truly are. You cannot hide from yourself.")

Akihito would be Heroic Courage. ("Hiding like a turtle in a shell is not living at all. A true warrior must have heroic courage. It is absolutely risky. It is living life completely, fully and wonderfully. Heroic courage is not blind. It is intelligent and strong.")

Dai Jin would be Duty, Loyalty. ("Warriors are responsible for everything that they have done and everything that they have said and all of the consequences that follow. They are immensely loyal to all of those in their care. To everyone that they are responsible for, they remain fiercely true.")

Hama would be Honesty. ("When warriors say that they will perform an action, it is as good as done. Nothing will stop them from completing what they say they will do. They do not have to 'give their word'. They do not have to 'promise'. Speaking and doing are the same action.")

I'm mainly going off of Wikipedia and obviously the characters don't fit perfectly into these and there is overlap and interpretation as they weren't made specifically with these concepts in mind. But at least I got something interesting to think about out of it.
