EARLY STORY CHECK-IN

WHY ARE THERE SO MANY GHOSTS HERE?

[Chie's handwriting is a messy Japanese scrawl that nonetheless all of the Readers should be able to, well, read.]

Right, sorry, this is Chie Satonaka? Sumire said that last time there was a story, she accidentally did a check-in for everyone in the journals, so I thought maybe I could do one on purpose. Maybe we can pool information about who we know is a story character and who we know is still normal? And figure out what we're here for.

So I'll start. I'm Chie and I'm myself and so is Sumire—we ended up going into the book together and came out in the same place. I think maybe the girl fairy is a story character? I saw someone who looked like she might as a human working at a stall at the festival, along with some other guy I don't recognize in a witch hat. Also Nabiki is definitely a story character because I found her at a booth for one of the gods and she's like nearly twice her regular age and has reading glasses.

OH also Claire is here playing music for money and she asked me if I was a Chosen of the Librarian and I think that's a really good question for us to use to signal we're us if we think we see people we know in the story.

I've heard similar in relation to the Thing. I'm getting by with more or less saying I'm a paladin - which I am - though I don't quite know who to say I'm a paladin of...

I'm not surprised to hear of a god dying, but it seemed to have affected people. How, I'm not quite sure. Most people don't seem to want to talk about it.

I think it might be okay to talk about our own gods, or, like, our own mythology, so long as we don’t refer to one we can all be identified by.

I’m going to speak of my sisters who are called to the Maidensong, if I’m pressed on my background.
aetherweaver: (eh?)

That's... a problem. Considering the gods are pretty much all dead where I'm from.

Though I suppose that means they won't care much about me using their names.
