Thirteenth Prayer: A Flash of the Future [Video/Action]
[It's been nearly two years in Luceti, and Rei's come to realize that things are very different for her than they were initially. Then, she'd been so focused on getting home, getting back to the fight, and finishing what she'd started. But everything that'd happened since that time had given her other things to focus on, other people to care about besides just the Senshi, and a semblance of happiness she'd not had at home. People to trust, a shrine to call her own, and a way to grow stronger without having to rely in the power of Mars and that link to the past. It was nice, having that life, even the experiments and friends randomly disappearing were better than being dead.
Haruhi's departure had been a little shocking, but then...every time someone left it meant they were just going back to the life they'd been stolen from. Even as much as she'd grown attached to the place, going home still felt right, like it was the way things should go. After all, destiny could only be put off for so long. Which she knew all to well applied to her, that she shouldn't wish too hard to delay the inevitable, but all the same she couldn't quite bring herself to hope for that. Even if you knew you'd come back, and everything would be alright in the end, there was something oddly morbid about wishing for death.
Rather than dwell on it, though, Rei does what she does best: she moves on with her life with a sigh. Today is Setsubun after all, so inevitably, she finds herself in the shrine. After a while she decides to perform a flame reading of her own future, something she's been putting off for a while. Unsurprisingly the results are too much of a jumble to make much sense, though Fenimore is beginning to feature more prominently in them. Disappointed that she couldn't get more, she decides to set up a broadcast because even if she can't get a proper Setsubun ceremony going this year, Rei feels she should at least do something.]

Good afternoon, Luceti, and welcome to any New Feathers that have just arrived. For those of you that do not know me, my name is Rei Hino and I run Tsukino Shrine, across the river from the Flame building. It's a peaceful place and it's open to visitors at any time, regardless of spiritual beliefs.
As today is a sort of traditional festival day in my world, I'll be offering fortune telling and flame readings to anyone who visits today. If you have an interest in knowing a bit more about your future, your luck, or other things, feel free to come by and I will be happy to help you.
Also, I was wondering if anyone knows much about carpentry. There are some parts of the shrine that are beginning to get a little worn and some improvements I'd like to make, though I need some help with that. Any assistance or advice would be appreciated. I'm more than happy to offer what services I can in return. Baking, limited enchanting, exorcisms, omamori and other charms, or even just help with yardwork.
[And she bows to the camera before turning off the feed.]
[As promised, Rei is at the shrine, and while she'll be replying to journals she'd prefer in person visits!]

[action]
And yup, this guy is Pabu. He's from home, too.
[action]
[She holds out a hand for Pabu, if he'd like to sniff or whatever.]
He's very cute. A fire ferret? Does he breath fire?
[action]
No fire, but he does like eating noodles and he can do tricks.
[action]
What sort of tricks?
[action]
[action]
But you came here for a reading, so we should get started. There's a small water trough by the entrance. Would you mind washing your hands first?
[action]
[ He nods ] Oh, right probably a good idea. [ He jogs over to the trough and washes his hands thoroughly. He'd been bending so dirty hands were a thing he forgot about pretty often. Once that is taken care of he return showing that his hands are clear. ] So what next?
[action] What should Rei see in her vision?
[She hops up inside and takes off her shoes before entering and pulling out a brush, inkstone, and paper.]
I need you to write your name down, to give me something to focus on.
[action] Maybe a journey a frozen land? So he gets vaguey vague hints to season 2
Is that all? [ He writes down his name carefully and hands the paper over. ]
[action]okay!
[She takes the paper and nods towards a cushion for him to sit on before turning to the fire.]
I'll need a quiet moment, and when I'm finished, I'm going to take your hand. When I do, I'll be able to show you the vision.
[action]
He grabs a seat on the cushion and sits as still as possible and also shushes Pabu so he doesn't interrupt. ]
[action]
After a long, quiet moment, she holds out a hand for Bolin to take.]
[action]
Once her hand is held out he takes it, maybe a little nervous now. ]
[action]
She nods as she wraps her fingers around him, and Bolin's senses will be greeted with a rush of sensations. Cold, biting cold, accompanied by the howling of wind. He'll see himself, trudging through miles and miles of frozen waste, leaning into an arctic gale to make any headway. There's a sense of journey to it, and desperation in his movements, like there's something he's got to do. But determination too.
After a moment, the wind swirls between them and the phantom Bolin, obscuring him behind a wall of white and ending the vision.]
[action]
...Wow. That definitely felt real.
[action]
[action]
[action]
[Rei perks up a bit.]
What sort of bender are you?
