✿ Thirty-Ninth Ink Drop ✿ - [Action]

[chiisaichou]

[Good day, Luceti! I bet some of you may be pretty weirded out by your new surroundings, aren't you? Well, don't you worry your little heads, everything here is totally normal! Yup, the massive, white and red dragon curled comfortably in between Good Spirits and Seventh Heaven, sleeping away and probably blocking off the street, is totally normal

[And here is Alexei was just leaving from Seventh Heaven when he found himself confronting the massive form of Dragon!Miyabi.]

What the-! [It took him by surprise that he instinctively drew his blade. That thing was not there when he first arrived at Seventh Heaven! 8(]

[niponpettinzoo]

[Hey, hey, hey! There is no need for violence here. This dragon is just comfortably trying to catch up on its beauty-sleep! That and wait out the effects of the knock out drugs the Malnosso must have injected her with.

Still, that little shout was definitely loud enough to be heard, and Miyabi turns her head towards it, opening her eyes just a sliver, a huge yawn directed right at Alexei. Uuurgh, why was everyone and their brother bothering her today? It's not like she was attracting attention or anything.]

[fallenambitions]

[Long as she doesn't attack him, there won't be any violence. And now he has woken the dragon up, great. He backsteps away from the dragon when she open her huge mouth. Good lord morning breath.]

A dragon? Here in the village? [Why no, he hasn't notice you have those familiar tiny wings and is thus an actual resident of Luceti.] This isn't a place for you to be sleeping, dragon. [And yes, he believes he can take you down, if he has to. Silly Commandant]

[niponpettinzoo]

[Nope, this particular dragon is harmless! Mostly. But Miyabi does blink and raise her head a little bit more, now that she's more or less awake. Dragon? There was a dragon in the village? She looks over her shoulder and sees her tail and body.

Her tail and body. Oh, sweet gods. Miyabi's on her feet - all four of them, fff - and looking at herself, muttering quickly.]

Dra-Dragon! I'm a dragon! Yom...Yomigami! They turned me into the dragon god! A-Aaah, I don't want to be--MY TAIL'S INSIDE A SCROLL!

[That is so weird, but she can still move and wiggle it around and oh god, oh god.]

[fallenambitions]

[...Alexei just stares, unsure of what to make of this spectacle. She did mention a hint in her panic.]

They...they as in the Malnosso? So then you are not really a dragon...[...which is a bit of a relief. Still] Who are you suppose to be then?

[niponpettinzoo]

[Dragon? What dragon? You are clearly talking to a boar now, Alexei. A boar balancing on a large, circular firework. Best of all is that Miyabi barely notices the change, even after the soft flash of light and poof.]

Yes, I think so. I was kidnapped just recently. My name is Miyabi. The dragon is a very important deity from my world - Yomigami, the dragon god of rejuvenation.

[fallenambitions]

[...it's like some awesome magic trick at a circus.]

I...see. You've transformed again.

[niponpettinzoo]

[It would be more awesome if Miyabi had any control over it, actually.]

I...did?

[She looks down, and gives a loud squeal, losing her balance on the firework and falling on her back. She kicks her little piggy legs for a moment before righting herself. The cherry bomb she was on before, however, is rolling away. At least it's not lit.]

[fallenambitions]

[He watches the Cherry bomb roll off before looking back to Miyabi at her attempts to to right herself. This was quite entertaining to watch, but he's going to keep that remark to himself.]

Another deity from your world, I presume?

[niponpettinzoo]

[Sh-Shut up! Miyabi bows her head, ears folding behind her head in embarrassment. Ffff, this felt so weird. She was a god. A brush god! Was she being disrespectful to them by, well, being them? Uuugh, this was terrible! Stupid Malnosso!]

Y-Yes, that's right... This one is Bakugami, the boar. He's the god of explosions.

[fallenambitions]

[God of explosio-- well, now he's looking apprehensively at the ball she was on]

That's not going to go off on it's own is it?

[niponpettinzoo]

[Oh...well. That's a very good question. Miyabi blinks, and shakes her head, but goes over to fetch the large firework anyway.]

I-I don't think so... It usually has to be lit for it to explode. And I don't have anything to light it with.

[Usually it just popped up lit when she used the skill, and in painting she saw back home, a gaggle of boar piglets with lighting sticks would gather around the boar god.]

[fallenambitions]

Good to know. I don't think you want to be blame for accidentally causing damage.

How many other deities exist in your world?

[niponpettinzoo]

N-No, I'd feel just awful...! [Though if she changed into Yomigami again, she could fix whatever damage she did almost instantly...hopefully. Miyabi didn't know if she could even use the powers of the brush gods.]

Eh? Oh, there are thirteen total, but three monkey gods - each with their own Greensprout power - so...fifteen total.

[fallenambitions]

All of them have the form of animals? [this is starting to sound like how the ancients used to worship Entelexia as gods in his world]

Well at least you're familiar with them, because it looks like the Malnosso have forced you to cycle through them. Considering you didn't stay as Yomigami.

[niponpettinzoo]

Yes, they're all animals, based off the zodiac calendar in my homeland.

Mm, I've been studying how to paint them, actually. I have to know about all the gods, it was kind of my job back home, sir. I-I was training to be a messenger of the gods, a Celestial Envoy.

[And the moment those words are out of her mouth, Miyabi changes again, this time into a symbol carrying snow monkey. Thankfully, though, she notices this change.] A-Ah...it looks like that way. I hope it ends soon.
