My full name is Todoroki Shouto, and I won't divulge the name my god gave me. I have no preference for what I'm called.
What is your vessel form?
A combat vest that helps in regulating body temperature.
Have you fought ayakashi?
Yes, multiple times. I prefer it over any other assignments we could take, as I'm used to combat situations, and my god Aidos and I work well together.
What is temple life like?
Generally calm. We go running after breakfast and take prayers in the afternoons and occasional evenings. Saturdays are less active, and Sundays we use as personal days where we don't take prayers. Either we go out and explore the Near Shore, or we stay in at the temple.
[ Watching movies, taking care of the house, training with one another... going out on dates. Even the inclusion of Demyx hasn't slowed that down any, despite the fact that they're such a mixed bag of personalities now. But it's all fine, regardless. ]
It's better now that people aren't putting holes in doors or destroying other property. And now that we have a cat to keep us company, as well. I'd like to learn how to cook, though, so that I can help out more with the household chores.
Are there other shinki at your god's temple?
We previously had another partner, Kido, but she disappeared not long after I had gotten here and we'd taken on a couple of prayers together. However, fairly recently, we welcomed another shinki to take on non-combative prayers, as his god wasn't working with him. He's all right.
What is your favorite part of life with your god?
[ "Everything" isn't specific enough, but he's not going to talk about their personal relationship. So. ]
Just spending time together with him, but it's nice to be able to help him. Especially since we're partners.
[ Nevermind that Izuku is the one thing that he remembers. No family, no friends, nothing about where they come from - it's all Izuku, and that's it. And that's fine with him, even if he knows he should be thinking more about it, even a little.
What is your least favorite part of life with your god? Any advice based on those thoughts?
[ This is less of an immediate answer, one that he has to mull over rather than outright bluntly list. The words are already in his head, but, really, if he wants this to be useful... ]
He's self-sacrificing, and while that's admirable and something a hero does, it's to the point that I worry about him. If you have a god that frequently puts others before themselves, then you need to make sure you're always with them, or at least have it established that you'll help them no matter what. That way, they don't run themselves ragged, or worse.
Do you wish to be assigned to a different god?
[ This one - this is instantaneous. ]
Never. Aidos is the only god I would want, and I refuse to go anywhere without him.
[ Something to be delivered to Izuku... well, he doesn't care about his anonymity. It's not like his god/boyfriend doesn't know him well enough by now to figure out it's him, even if he tries to be subtle. No reason for that. ]
The other shinki that works with my god left his previous one, due to things not working out, and I can't imagine that with my situation.
I've talked to a lot of different shinki, as well, while living here, and I've found that what I have with my god is what I prefer above all else. I have no interest in being assigned to a different god, because the two of us are partners, working together to fulfill prayers and combat ayakashi. Being with him makes me happy, no matter what it is we're doing, and being able to help him makes me happier.
Which makes it easier, when he tries to push himself too hard or put himself into harm's way. We're almost always together, and take a lot of combat-oriented prayers together, and I wouldn't have it any other way, since that means I can protect him when he puts others before himself. But I would never ask him to change himself, especially not since we're both heroes - we just need to watch one anothers' backs, and that's what I would tell other shinki to do with their gods, too.
