video from greenhouse

[ As usual, Gyousou has been visiting the greenhouse to check on the small plant from his world. Which, in turn, has led him to some navel-gazing. ]

I have been thinking recently on the future of this journey of ours. Preparation is key for any venture, and perhaps we have been too reactionary... We are able to purchase animals and supplies, but perhaps it might be worthwhile to request a riboku, so that we might grow animals of our own and gain some self-sufficiency. I'm not familiar with customs for the creation of a riboku outside of my own land, but in Tai the village would assemble in a festival gathering, so that their prayers may all be heard.

[ He smiles slightly, expression wry. ] Ordinarily, we would also register the settlement on the divine lists... but here I suppose notifying the train itself would work just as well.

[OoC: Threads can and will be threadjacked by Taiki as he tries to do cultural damage control, let me know in your tag if that's not okay!]

Then...who cares for them, if not their families?

[eyeslikeblood]

An odd question. A couple prays for a child, and receive one from the riboku if the heavens will it. Naturally they will care for them.

Children are blessings from the gods, then?

[eyeslikeblood]

Is it not so for your world?

[usestwohands]

It is a result of males and females coupling. I do not think all are planned and asked for.

It's strange for me to imagine a world where the two are linked in such a way.
