[VIDEO/ACTION] Imperfect Wings Won't Get You Into S*ul S*ciety
[ You’re flying!
Or more specifically, the video (also known as the journal) is flying! There is a spot of cloud, and there’s another slice of tree, and a whole lot of snow, and then with a rather unimpressive thump, the entire thing comes to a stop with a small puff of snow covering one corner of the screen, which appears to be sideways and hanging from a branch of a tree, under which two people stand -- a tall, silver haired man with silvery white wings, and a short, red-haired girl with bright red wings.
It appears that he was mid-shout when the journal opened, as he has a finger pointed up in the direction of the journal and is gesticulating furiously. ]
-- YOU WANT IT SO MUCH, WHY DON’T YOU GO UP THERE AND GET IT, HAH?!?!
[ Clearly, this is the main character of the show, because he’s 1.) shirtless, 2.) quite loud, and also 3.) has the Protagonist Image, being shirtless and buff and all. (And yes, of course he is the protagonist, because he is Gintoki, and that makes him the star of Gintama, and you are currently watching part of season 7, which has not yet begun to air on TV Tokyo because Gintama has been on hiatus.It is not in fact canceled, as you might believe.) ]
Gin-chaaaaan!
[ The girl huffs angrily, looking from the journal, to the “protagonist", gritting her teeth angrily. That journal was hers, and she knew it. Surely, an angel wouldn’t do something like this. An angel wouldn’t put her through the daily torment that Gintoki does. So she makes her decision in an instant.
He doesn’t deserve to be an angel.
She reaches out quickly, aiming to rip one of those stupid wings off of his back. She only manages a handful of feathers, but still, her point is probably made. ]
Fly up there and get it now aru, you bastard!
[ And of course, because this is Gintama, or more specifically, a Gintama roleplay, instead of just a small trickle of blood and a scream or something along those lines, there’s an explosion of blood and Gintoki goes pale and suddenly staggers as he clutches at his poor wing (is he actually serious? he’s not actually serious, is he, this is just for dramatic effect isn’t it) and actually collapses onto the ground.
He may or may not be slightly twitching.
It’s all very dramatic.]
Gin-chan?
[ For a moment, she nearly ignores him and trudges off through the snow without him. But that twitching… It’s a little disconcerting. She crouches next to him and pats his face roughly. ]
Oi, there’s parfaits over in that snow bank. I wasn’t going to tell you aru, but if you get up you can have one.
[ At first there’s no response, and then Gintoki slowly manages to move his head to look up at Kagura the way a man close to DEATH might. ]
I can’t do it. You ripped out my re*atsu when you ripped out my feathers. Without a full set of wings, I can’t enter S*ul S*ciety.
[ Her eyes widen at that. Is it true? Will he really get left behind while she ascends? ]
I’m sorry, Gin-chan! Please wait, I will carry you to the hospital aru!
[ BUT FIRST, she’ll step away, and crouch down to dig a little hole in the snow, where she buries those feathers. She doesn’t want any B*nkai wielding S*ul S*ciety sh*n*gam* after her.
And when they are sufficiently hidden, she won’t go to immediately pick him up. She instead hops up to knock that journal out of the tree. She tucks it down the front of her shirt, then she’ll hoist the man on to her back, and start running through the trees. She actually has no idea where she’s going, so she’ll probably circle back around at some point.]

ARRIVAL THREAD. (before the journal post occurred) 1/unsure
The heater must've broken again, Gintoki sleepily thinks as he shifts slightly, and tries to roll over into a more comfortable position and pull up the blankets. Winter sucks in Edo, but it's usually not this bad unless--
Wait.
Blankets.
He blindly gropes around for them, then kicks his legs a little to try and find them before finally opening his eyes because clearly he must've kicked the blankets off and--
Wait a minute.
Wait
a
minute.
Why is he lying on the ground in the snow?
This must be a dream, right? This is definitely a dream. Gintoki went to bed nice and warm and snug in the Yorozuya Gin-chan the night before, so he couldn't possibly have woken up in the snow somewhere he doesn't recognize, right? He's obviously dreaming. Yup. That's definitely the case.
Gintoki promptly tries to go back to sleep. ]

[ Finally gives up, screaming as he wakes up and gets up off the ground, rubbing at his bare arms (what, where did his SHIRT go?!) as he hops about in place, and promptly trips over something warm and soft and goes sprawling face-first into a snow pile. ]
no subject
Such a noisy alarm clock aru. Gin-chan should use our money on better things.
[ And she'll roll over, pulling more snow up over her like a blanket. ]
no subject
[ If Gin-san's hemorrhoids weren't bad before, they're definitely gonna suck now -- and there's gonna be a big ass bruise on his back from where that small fist (what small fist, that thing is like a fucking anvil, okay) comes slamming down. He flails a bit, sputtering with a facefull of snow, and then manages to get up, this time giving Kagura ass a kick back. (Not a particularly big one, just one that'll get her attention) ]
no subject
[ After all, there's a pair of red wings sprouting from her back. ]
no subject
[ She'll nuzzle her face down into the snow. It's about the same temperature as the Yorozuya when the heat's out, so she doesn't even realize she isn't in bed yet. ]

Let's see if that gets her attention. ]
no subject
She pulls him down, slamming his face into the snow once more. Only this time, as she jumps to her feet to shake the snow out of her dress, she notices something lying there, a few feet away. She'll step over him to get a closer look at it. ]

Oi, oi, did you throw away another memo from Sunrise or Shueisha again? We must've missed a notice that we were supposed to get ready for a new arc, cuz I don't even know how the story's supposed to go.
no subject
[ She's just flipping through the pages, trying to figure it out. ]

[ Gintoki reaches over her and grabs the book, opening it up to...
A very dead character's post. ]

They're in the afterlife.
THEY'RE DEAD. ]

Y-you don't remember a-anything weird happening last night do you K-Kagura? Oi, nothing happened to us while we were sleeping, right?
no subject
[ She scratches her head, straining hard to think back. ]
So there were a lot of farts from Sadaharu, and I did not sleep well aru. But that is normal sometimes too.

What is it, Gin-chan? Ah, did you pee the bed at your age aru? Is that why you dragged us outside aru? So no one would see? I told you to not have another sake before bed.
no subject
It's a good thing Kagura decided to make a quip like that just now because that's enough to knock Gintoki right back in shape. ]
Yeah, well, sake's good for the digestive system when you're an adult. But I didn't do anything shameful like wet the bed, that's the sorta thing you do, kusogaki. Especially with your egg juice.
no subject
[ She was readying a nice roundhouse kick for him, but upon leaning over she sees what is now attached to his back, and stops herself. ]
Oi, Gin-chan. There's a dead bird stuck to you. It looks like it might have a disease aru.
no subject
No, they're just wings. You've got some too.
[ Points at hers. ]
