Mio invents the game of Baseball

    • "Foooooolish oni. MIO is the one who will do the eating!" you declare, pulling all the strands of your chakra close into your body as you leap to the attack.

    Dummy responds to your attack reflexively, truly without thought. Rather than catching you, which would have served the purpose of holding you in place for eating, he instantly swings that great club of his.

    He seems to realize the mistake too late to do anything about it, with a frowned and muttering 'oops'. Then...

    ... It's a good thing you've got the chakra all drawn close to your body. There's enough that the energy has become physically dense, and it can't really be damaged the same way as actually physical materials.

    If you'd just leapt to the attack, like you're newly... carnivorous? Instincts had driven you to do... well, you think that would have less been crushed by the club and more have splashed apart, like a water balloon used for kenjutsu target practice with one of Fuki's wooden swords.

    As things stand, your chakra serves as a deforming, rubber-ish kind of armor, which means that when the impact hits you, it doesn't break you.

    Carrying on the metaphor, it means that you respond to the blow like a rubber bouncing ball instead of a water balloon.

    You have the barest instant of realizing the impact before you smash outwards through the giant skull and keep on flying...

    ... Really, truly, disgustingly far through the air. The landscape is blurring around you. You hit... something, you don't know what, but it comes apart in a squawking cloud of feathers and blood that doesn't slow you down at all and your altitude is still increasing.

    Why the hell is this your life?

    At some point your altitude peaks, and then you start to fall, and you realize you've still got a long way to go before you-

    Impact.

    Who says that the glowing skull in the dark isn't civilization?

    This one isn't as obviously dangerous as the others, which makes me wonder what's dangerous about it.

    Also, interesting armor technique we have now.

    This seems the option that'd best facilitate THE GREAT MIO going full hammy pomp in any possible conversation that may transpire:

    [X] You landed on clouds. And are standing on clouds. Literal sky clouds. Why?

    Encounter some regular ol' skybeasts, some harpies, tengu, sky cities - doesn't matter what, she's gonna be riding high on actually being in/living in what would normally only exist in kids' excited imaginations.

    Can you imagine how much MIO'd lord it over kids that no, she's actually been to a cloud-city, or the like?

    The snide jokes about the Village Hidden in the Clouds would be unending, and legendary.

    Does this mean we're no longer in Hell? :p

    It's interesting that we have enough chakra around us to form something like a chakra cloak.

    Hell can have clouds. Cloudless hells might just be a hurtful stereotype.
