> You are AURICA! A lonely faerie from the outside world! You have been hired on by YUKARI YAKUMO. So far, you have defeated an ice faerie, bought groceries, sold cookies to a hungry salesman, survived and lipped off one of the strongest youkai in all of Gensokyo. You can copy abilities at a whim, stopped a zombie infestation, escaped from a universe of chaos, got a suppository the size of a grapefruit administered, got a living doll companion that can only say it's name, befriended an eccentric Kappa, made it into the tabloids, and befriended the mistress of the palace of spirits and her sister. You stopped their haywire pets, Orin, and Okuu/Utsuho! After performing a military exercise with Eientei in which you got a shikigami by the name of Roger, you stopped magical leaks and a ROBO NITORI Then, you TRAVELED THROUGH TIME and completely jacked this timestream. Chen is now an adult, Yuka and Yukari are in love, Shanghai can fly (and prefers an axe to a lance), and a host of others. Finally, you discovered an old warehouse that you were completely afraid of, which introduced you to Rin Satsuki, the forgotten girl (and a host of violent delusions)! Then you went to visit Lily (you burned her, you sick, sick monster) and Nitori's GREATEST invention! An invention of !!!SCIENCE!!!tific proportions! And then you learned that if you don't wear safety goggles, you will die and no one will care.

> You were just talking to Nitori about her shiny new hat. What do?
-
> "So... What does the new thing do anyway?"
-
>Holy shit, she likes us!
>Set expectations to: prepared for astonishment!
-
> Adjust goggles to make sure they are properly on, otherwise...you know....
-
(So I've finally got this worked out. Going to finish it once and for all.)
> "So... What does the new thing do anyway?"
> "...Aurica, let this be our secret, okay?"
> She looks about nervously.
> "I put this thing together in a drunken rage. I have no idea if it works properly, or how it even does it. I think I might mix orange juice and rum more often if stuff like this turns up overnight!"
>Holy shit, she likes us!
>Set expectations to: prepared for astonishment!
> You prepare for astonishment!
> Adjust goggles to make sure they are properly on, otherwise...you know....
> You ensure your goggles are tightly over your eyes. Wouldn't want a spear of glass through them!
-
> "Lets hope you're a drunken master! Hit it!"
> "But...should we hold the first-aid kit close just in case...?"
-
>Belay that last line, we have faith in you, Nitori!
-
> "Lets hope you're a drunken master! Hit it!"
> "But...should we hold the first-aid kit close just in case...?"
>Belay that last line, we have faith in you, Nitori!
> She looks at her watch.
> "I'd love to. But it's time for dinner. And I've been planning spicy pizza pancakes for the last month!"
-
>"Can I have some?"
-
>"Can I have some?"
> "Well my good faerie, I'd be glad to have you over!"
> She looks at your safety goggles.
> "And you'll definitely be needing those!"
-
>Smile a smile that would mimic acts of Utsuho.
>"This is going to be the best!"
>Follow her.
-
>Smile a smile that would mimic acts of Utsuho.
>"This is going to be the best!"
>Follow her.
> You would if you knew how to do that!
> "It sure is!"
> She reaches into her desk and pulls out a black container labeled "MIX."
> She proceeds to the kitchen. You follow her.
-
>Observe!
>"Can I help?"
-
>Observe!
>"Can I help?"
> She dumps the "MIX" into a large pot. She reaches into a drawer and covers her face with a welding mask.
> "You can stand way back."
> As the (remarkably home-made) stove heats up, sparks begin to pop and sizzle out of the pot.
-
> Stand WAY the fuck back.
-
> Stand WAY the fuck back.
> You ensure you are a great distance away from her.
> After a few minutes, Nitori digs in the drawer again and pulls out a box. She tears the top off and dumps the powdery contents of it into the pot. With this done, she opens a very shabby looking refrigerator, complete with jagged chunks of metal sticking out from the sides. She begins pulling out cartons and containers, presumably of milk and such.
> Soon she's adding whatever it is she needs for the meal.
-
>Watch with rapt attention!
>"This is gonna be so great! This is so great! Is it going to explode?!"
-
>Watch with rapt attention!
>"This is gonna be so great! This is so great! Is it going to explode?!"
> You stare like a bewildered child.
> "I don't know."
> After going about her business, Nitori puts on thick gloves and slams the pot (top first) onto a table. She comes back with a hammer and begins to smack against the exposed bottom of the pot until a loud "thunk" is heard. She pulls the pot off of the table and sets it aside. On the table now rests a large, circular, black chunk of...something.
> "You might want to leave. This might get messy in a moment."
> She leaves the room and quickle returns with a large saw.
-
>"But this looks like the best part!"
-
> Stand way the fuck back. Yes, even farther back than the first time.
-
>"But this looks like the best part!"
> Stand way the fuck back. Yes, even farther back than the first time.
> "Well, I'm just saying that shit might hit the fan. Literally."
-
>"Oh. Stay behind me, Shanghai!"
>Hide behind some furniture; but peek around because this is exciting!
-
>"Oh. Stay behind me, Shanghai!"
>Hide behind some furniture; but peek around because this is exciting!
> You command Shanghai to stay behind you.
> "Shanghai!"
> You sit behind a chair and peek about occasionally. After Nitori has sawed through about half, steam begins to billow out of the cut, along with a purple goo.
-
>"Where did that goo even come from?!"
>Does it look or smell appetizing at all?
-
> Does it even look safe to eat?
> Does it even look like pizzas or pancakes?
-
>"Where did that goo even come from?!"
>Does it look or smell appetizing at all?
> She ignores you, caught up in her work.
> No. Very no.
> Does it even look safe to eat?
> Does it even look like pizzas or pancakes?
> Very, very no.
> Well, it's red. And tomato sauce is red. Your brain says "kind of."
-
>"This smells kinda weird. Is it French?"
>Wait patiently! Have faith!
-
> stare at it in a strange manner.
-
> Approach the 'meal'.
> "So....do you eat it like that or do you need to put extra spices or sauces on it...?"
-
>"This smells kinda weird. Is it French?"
>Wait patiently! Have faith!
> "Please stay quiet! I must CONCENTRATE!"
> You turn your faith up to eleven!
> stare at it in a strange manner.
> You peek at it and give it a curious gaze.
> Approach the 'meal'.
> "So....do you eat it like that or do you need to put extra spices or sauces on it...?"
> You stand up and approach it.
> Nitori snaps to your direction and yells out.
> "YOU FOOL! GET BACK BEHIND THE-"
> In seconds, the black block shakes violently.
> That's the last thing you saw before it went black.
-
>"What?"
-
>"What?"
> You mutter under your breath. No response. You realize you are able to move, though you can't see anything. In fact, it's absolutely black.
> You perform a check for broken or sprained body parts out of reflex. Just a little sore, nothing crushed or dislocated.
-
>"Hey, am I still alive?"
-
> Try and wipe your eyes. Maybe the... thing... splattered apart in your face and covered your eyes?
> If the above succeeds, look around.
> If not, then touch around to feel where you are.
-
>"Hey, am I still alive?"
> No response. You don't hear an echo, either. Which usually isn't a good sign.
> Try and wipe your eyes. Maybe the... thing... splattered apart in your face and covered your eyes?
> If the above succeeds, look around.
> If not, then touch around to feel where you are.
> You wipe your eyes. It feels like fabric over top of them.
> You feel around and knock your head into a wall. Poor girl.
-
>"Dah!"
>Defrabic eyes.
-
> After 'defabric-ing' eyes, have a look around.
> Check yourself to make sure you still have your possessions and are in good shape.
-
>"Dah!"
>Defrabic eyes.
> You grunt and feel around your eyes, trying to remove the fabric. You realize it goes around your head, and then it hits you. Your eyes are bandaged up.
> Perhaps it's best to leave them alone.
> After 'defabric-ing' eyes, have a look around.
> Check yourself to make sure you still have your possessions and are in good shape.
> You can't, the fabric is still on.
> You feel around yourself. Your inventory seems perfectly full, thankfully!
-
>Are we on a bed, or just laid out in the corner?
-
>Are we on a bed, or just laid out in the corner?
> You were on a bed, but you stood up to feel around.
-
> Oh.
> Perhaps it's best to lie back down and rest.
> "Yukari... are you here...?"
-
> Oh.
> Perhaps it's best to lie back down and rest.
> "Yukari... are you here...?"
> You can't find the bed!
> You trip and land flat on your nose.
> You desperately call for Yukari, getting afraid.
> She pops out of a gap and screams.
-
> "What? Whats going on!?"
-
> "What? Whats going on!?"
> She rubs a hand over your eyes (at least, it feels that way).
> "I don't actually know, Aurica. I just dropped by when you called my name. I'm...fairly certain you're somewhere in Kappatown."
-
>"...Oh, right. There was probably an explosion or something. Hey, how long have I been gone?"
-
> "How do I look...?"
-
>"...Oh, right. There was probably an explosion or something. Hey, how long have I been gone?"
> "Well, since the last time you were home..."
> You hear her shuffle.
> "I'd say...two or three days? Give or take?"
> "How do I look...?"
> "Not so good, dear."
-
>Small sad noise.
>"Um...were you out looking for me and stuff?"
-
>What happened to the kappa? Can she be found?
>If not, ask Yukari if she had seen her?
-
>Small sad noise.
>"Um...were you out looking for me and stuff?"
> You whimper quietly.
> Yukari pats you on the head.
> "Err...No, I haven't. You tend to disappear for days at a time, so I didn't think anything of it!"
>What happened to the kappa? Can she be found?
>If not, ask Yukari if she had seen her?
> Nitori cannot be found in the room.
> "I haven't, unfortunately. I've been busy playing this very interesting card game from the outside world with Chen and Reimu."
-
>Start to feel guilty about the kappa not being found.
>"Card game?"
-
>'Oh! Oh! Oh! Is it the one with the lands? Or the one with the intrigue challenges?"
-
>Start to feel guilty about the kappa not being found.
>"Card game?"
> She reads your expression.
> "Well, I don't know what's going on. I'm sure she's somewhere around here, Aurica."
> "I forget the name. It's...duel something-or-another. Something along those lines."
>'Oh! Oh! Oh! Is it the one with the lands? Or the one with the intrigue challenges?"
> "I don't know. We don't have an up to date rulebook..."
-
>"After later today, mind showing me the cards?"
-
>"After later today, mind showing me the cards?"
> "After later today? Don't tell me you expect me to give you a convenient time transition."
> She laughs to herself.
> "Ask Chen about it, if you're so curious."
-
>"You better believe I will!"
>"Oh! Has anything happened while I was out?"
-
>"You better believe I will!"
>"Oh! Has anything happened while I was out?"
> She rubs your head again.
> "Ran has been making a lot of cookies. She's been going on and on why, but I drift off every time..."
> "Oh! And don't eat any. She gets mad at me when I do."
-
>Resist the urge to eat some of Ran's cookies.
>"Is that the only thing that happened?
-
> Consider asking Yukari to heal you up. We're heroes! We need to be back on the street to fight crime!
-
>Resist the urge to eat some of Ran's cookies.
>"Is that the only thing that happened?
> You push the thought of eating them out of your mind. You'll ignore them when you get home, to keep Ran in a good mood.
> "Yes, I'd say so. It's been rather lazy these last few days."
> Consider asking Yukari to heal you up. We're heroes! We need to be back on the street to fight crime!
> You ask Yukari to help you out.
> "I'm not even sure what's wrong with you."
> You hear a yawn.
> "And I'm too tired to do anything at the moment. I'll stick around and see what's wrong when someone gets here."
-
>"Oh. So, there's been nothing with Rin, or that one place opening up, or Lily? How's Lily? Did she get my present? Oh, and how's Nitori?"
-
>"Oh. So, there's been nothing with Rin, or that one place opening up, or Lily? How's Lily? Did she get my present? Oh, and how's Nitori?"
> "Rin disappeared again. And "that one place" is just a shed, now."
> She pauses and thinks for a second.
> "I haven't heard from Lily. Chen's been checking up on her. I've been too busy sleeping."
-
>"Oh. How's Chen? And Ran? And Yuka?"
-
>"Oh. How's Chen? And Ran? And Yuka?"
> You hear Yukari sniffle a little.
> "Don't even mention that witch's name around me!"
> You can hear Yukari crying.
> Good job, faerie. You made your mentor cry. Now what?
-
>"I-I'm sorry! Please don't cry!"
-
> "C-Calm down, Miss Yukari... Tell me what happened... Did Yuka do something bad...?"
> "And wasn't Yuuka in the hospital too after that mysterious attack? Or has she recovered?"
-
>Is she nearby enough to administer a hug? Do so!
-
>"I-I'm sorry! Please don't cry!"
> "C-Calm down, Miss Yukari... Tell me what happened... Did Yuka do something bad...?"
> "And wasn't Yuuka in the hospital too after that mysterious attack? Or has she recovered?"
> "I don't want to talk about it..."
> "Just forget about her, dammit..."
>Is she nearby enough to administer a hug? Do so!
> You reach your hands out to try and hug her. You ultimately fail and smash face first into the floor.
> Yukari's sniffling slows down and makes way to laughter. Success?
-
>Groan.
-
>Groan.
> You groan in pain. Yukari's giggling gets a bit louder.
-
>Shake fist in her general direction.
-
> After fist shaking try and get back in bed.
> "Laughter's the best medicine, unless its at your own expense..."
-
>Let's not say that, don't need to make Yukari feel bad again.
-
>Let's not say that, don't need to make Yukari feel bad again.
I thought she would find it funny... She liked our unintentional slapstick routine, despite the fact we're bandaged up. She seems the type to like humor at the expense of others.
She also laughed her ass off when we got killed by a bucket.
-
>Shake fist in her general direction.
> After fist shaking try and get back in bed.
> "Laughter's the best medicine, unless its at your own expense..."
>Let's not say that, don't need to make Yukari feel bad again.
> You shake your fist at what you believe is her direction before standing up and stumbling into the bed.
-
>"Um. Where am I, anyways?"
-
>"Um. Where am I, anyways?"
> "More specifically, in whose house am I? I know I'm in Kappa Town but..."
-
>"Um. Where am I, anyways?"
> "More specifically, in whose house am I? I know I'm in Kappa Town but..."
> "I don't know. Like I said, I just gapped to wherever you were when you rang."
-
>"Oh. Could you find out?"
-
>"Oh. Could you find out?"
> You hear a yawn.
> "Not really, no. It's time for my nap."
-
>"Ooooh, right. Sorry."
>"...Could you tell me where the door is?"
-
>"Ooooh, right. Sorry."
>"...Could you tell me where the door is?"
> "Yes."
> She picks you up and pulls her into the gap.
> You drop on the floor of a street. The semi-familiar bustle of Kappatown fills your ears.
-
>Stand there like a mook for a moment.
>"Um...Hi? Anyone?"
-
> "Yukari, could we have one of those walking sticks for blind people... please?"
-
>Stand there like a mook for a moment.
>"Um...Hi? Anyone?"
> Nobody answers. the bustle keeps up.
> "Yukari, could we have one of those walking sticks for blind people... please?"
> A cane thwacks you on the head and falls down next to you.
> You reach a hand out and begin searching for it.
-
>"Ow..."
>Hunt for it.
>After finding it, check inventory.
-
>"Ow..."
>Hunt for it.
>After finding it, check inventory.
> You search for a while and latch a hand on it. You put the cane in your amazing infinitory.
-
>What are we carrying at the moment?
>Once this is acertained, use cane to find out way around.

-

-
>Listen for familiar voices. Or people talking smack about us that we have to beat the crap out of.
> You listen for voices or people talking about you. Unfortunately, all you can make out is the classic crowd gibberish.
> You get knocked about by passers by. You're eventually knocked over completely and drop your cane on the ground somewhere.
-
>Can we locate the jerk that knocked us over, via "Oofs" and "Watch it, moron!"-esque calls?
>Do we have Shanghai with us?
-
>Can we locate the jerk that knocked us over, via "Oofs" and "Watch it, moron!"-esque calls?
>Do we have Shanghai with us?
> No you cannot, unfortunately. They shoved you over and went on their way.
> You don't know, so you call her name. You feel familiar hands crawl up your back and plop onto your head.
> "Shanghai!"
-
>"Go punch that Jerk in the back of the head, Shanghai!"
-
>"Go punch that Jerk in the back of the head, Shanghai!"
> "Shanghai!"
> You can hear the sounds of her fluttering away.
> Moments later, the sounds of an angry Kappa storming towards you can be heard.
-
>"Watch where you're going, you selfish jerk! Some of us can't see here!"
-
> If he gets aggressive use your stick-fu. Also ask GIANT Shanghai for back-up.
-
>"Watch where you're going, you selfish jerk! Some of us can't see here!"
> The Kappa replies in a distinct, Brooklyn accent.
> "Yeah? Well some of us got bettah things to do than stumble in da street!"
> If he gets aggressive use your stick-fu. Also ask GIANT Shanghai for back-up.
> You prepare to thwack him in the shins with your cane if he gets violent.
-
>"Like dig your head out of your butt? You got a great echo going on!"
>Just like home~
-
>"Like dig your head out of your butt? You got a great echo going on!"
>Just like home~
> "Why I oughtta clobbah you!"
> He begins spewing some insults. They're barely legible through his manner of speaking.
> Indeed~
-
> "Say Mario, how much of a man would you consider yourself if you hit a blind girl?"
-
>"Sounds like you got some organ stuck in your mouth there, buddy! Maybe you oughta spit that out, eh?"
-
> "Say Mario, how much of a man would you consider yourself if you hit a blind girl?"
> "I ain't a man, goily."
> Welp, just like home, you assumed something you couldn't see was male. She has a deep voice, you have to admit.
>"Sounds like you got some organ stuck in your mouth there, buddy! Maybe you oughta spit that out, eh?"
> "Oi, we gunna do this, goily, then you'll be walkin' home with a few black eyebulls."
-
>"Keep waving it around like a feather duster, why don't ya!"
-
>"Keep waving it around like a feather duster, why don't ya!"
> He gives you a great punch to the eye. You recoil from the hit and smack into the ground.
> "Shanghai!"
> The sounds of a shocked crowd fill the air. You feel yourself being picked up and set onto Shanghai's head. You instinctively grab her hair and hang on.
-
>"Toss 'em in the pool!"
-
>"Toss 'em in the pool!"
> A booming "shanghai" echoes in the air. As does the screams of a Kappa as she's tossed across Gensokyo to the central lake.
-
>Pat her on the head.
>"Good job! Let's go to Nitori's!"
-
>Pat her on the head.
>"Good job! Let's go to Nitori's!"
> "Shanghai!"
> She takes two steps or so before shrinking back down. You fall down and she grabs your hand, guiding you to Nitori's house. You suddenly pause.
> "Shanghai..."
> You detect quite a bit of sadness in her voice.
-
> "W-What is it, Shanghai? Is there something wrong with Nitori...?"
-
> "W-What is it, Shanghai? Is there something wrong with Nitori...?"
> "S-Shanghai!"
> She flutters away, but in a moment, she comes back and taps you on the side with a splintered board. You assume it's from Nitori's hut.
-
>"...Oh no...Shanghai! Is there an clinic anywhere?"
-
>"...Oh no...Shanghai! Is there an clinic anywhere?"
> "Shanghai Shanghai!"
> You hear the sound of Shanghai facepalming. I think your guess is wrong.
> Shanghai flutters away again. She hands you a note and taps on it.
> You hear her speaking in her dollspeak, likely reading the note to you. Of course, you have no clue what she's saying.
-
>"Hey, find someone to read that, Shanghai."
-
>"Hey, find someone to read that, Shanghai."
> "Shanghai!"
> You feel a hand on your shoulder.
> "This thing yours, kid?"
-
>"Yes, could you read it, please? I'm kinda indisposed."
-
>"Yes, could you read it, please? I'm kinda indisposed."
> "...i suppose so."
> He begins to read the note to you.
> "Go to woods. Special surprise."
-
> Since this notice was in front of Nitori's house and since we have nothing better to do lets go to the woods!
> ...unless it's possible to visit Eirin first to deal with our eyes...
-
>Deploy seeing eye Shanghai, head for them woods!
-
> Since this notice was in front of Nitori's house and since we have nothing better to do lets go to the woods!
> ...unless it's possible to visit Eirin first to deal with our eyes...
> Of course!
> Unfortunately, there's more than one woods in Gensokyo. Which one should you go to?
> This could be done. Good luck getting to Eientei blind.
>Deploy seeing eye Shanghai, head for them woods!
> Which ones?
-
> We probably should start with the most obvious one: The Forest of Magic!
-
> We probably should start with the most obvious one: The Forest of Magic!
> You lumber down the mountain path on your way to The Forest of Magic.
> Convenient time skip Y/N?
-
>Sure why not?
-
>Sure why not?
> Perhaps you didn't understand.
>CONVENIENT TIME SKIP Y/N?
-
> Y
-
> Y
> Time seems to fast forward.
> You stop. There's a bush which is clearly rustling in front of you.
-
>"Hi, bush rustler!"
-
>"Hi, bush rustler!"
> You hear a shriek.
> You hear some more rustling.
-
>"I said Hi!"
-
>It seems that the bush rustler wants some alone time.
>...Pull the bush rustler out if it does not answer this time.
-
>Examine the bush rustler CLOSELY.
-
>"I said Hi!"
> "Wait a moment, dammit!"
> Sounds like Nitori.
>It seems that the bush rustler wants some alone time.
>...Pull the bush rustler out if it does not answer this time.
> You would pull the rustler out, but you can't see. Embarrassment would ensue when you inevitably fall.
>Examine the bush rustler CLOSELY.
> She appears to be very blank, according to your exceptional visionary capabilities at the moment.
-
>"Oh, okay!"
-
>Grab a nearby stick and approach carefully, then poke the bush a few times.
>Brace for possible confrontation.
-
>No we will not be poking Nitori, we are too awesome for this.
>Do keep our blind stick in hand, though. For the walkinating.
-
>"Oh, okay!"
> You wait a good moment. You feel her grip your shoulder as she unravels the bandages.
> You have regained the power of sight.
> It is indeed Nitori!
> Though, you don't remember her having a bushy mustache.
>Grab a nearby stick and approach carefully, then poke the bush a few times.
>Brace for possible confrontation.
>No we will not be poking Nitori, we are too awesome for this.
>Do keep our blind stick in hand, though. For the walkinating.
> You keep the cane well in hand, ready to walk some Sarah Connors.
-
>"Hi Nitori! You have a thing on your face."
-
> "Were our eyes completely fine this whole time...?"
-
>"Hi Nitori! You have a thing on your face."
> She twirls her mustache.
> "Hmm, indeed."
> "Were our eyes completely fine this whole time...?"
> "Your head was impaled on a long shard of hardened goo. My surgeon friend made quick work of the problem. You should just keep your head away from anything to avoid the bumping of one's head against an object."
> She continues to twirl her mustache.
> Nitori seems very devious with that thing on her face.
-
>"You look sinster! ...I love it!"
-
>Fondle the facial hair.
-
>"You look sinster! ...I love it!"
> She twirls her mustache again.
> "Hmm...Indeed."
>Fondle the facial hair.
> You reach to touch the facial hair, but Nitori uses WHIPLASH (LV. Bush) to shove you back.
-
>Pout.
>"Awww..."
-
> "Anyway, why did you want to meet up with us all the way here?"
> "And are you incognito?" :derp:
-
>Pout.
>"Awww..."
> She grins, still twirling that caterpillar on her face.
> "Anyway, why did you want to meet up with us all the way here?"
> "And are you incognito?" :derp:
> "Details, my girl."
> "Why would I be incognito, Aurica?"
-
>"...Good point! So what're the details?"
-
>"...Good point! So what're the details?"
> "You'll see soon, my dear."
> She tosses a capsule into the air, which explodes into a long cane.
> Nitori catches the cane, twirls her mustache again, and begins to twist one end of the cane.
-
>Jaw drop.
>"I want twenty of those!"
-
>Jaw drop.
>"I want twenty of those!"
> She finishes twisting and proceeds to pull a sword out of the cane.
-
>Raise hands to the side of head to express further astonishment.
-
>Raise hands to the side of head to express further astonishment.
> You raise your hands to the side of your head in sheer surprise.
> God, how didn't you see this coming!
-
>"Why do you toy with my emotions!"
-
>"Why do you toy with my emotions!"
> "I'm not doing the toying here!"
-
>"...Surely you jest!"
-
>"You know that a monocle would add extra class to your mustache."
-
>"...Surely you jest!"
> "AURICA YOU WILL NOT SASS BACK AT ME!"
> She takes a swing at you with the bladecane.
>"You know that a monocle would add extra class to your mustache."
> "Class is for the weak minded and foolish!"
-
>Scurry back; look abjectly hurt and devastated.
-
>Scurry back; look abjectly hurt and devastated.
> You scurry away, not holding back on being absolutely crushed by the fact that mustached Nitori is EVIL.
-
> Wait, is mustache'd Nitori actually trying to hurt us?
-
>So it seems
>"You've gone mad! Mad with power and awesome! But I'll bring you to your senses with loving violence!"
>Danmaku her up.
-
> Wait, is mustache'd Nitori actually trying to hurt us?
> Well, swinging a cane/sword USUALLY counts as trying to hurt, right?
>So it seems
>"You've gone mad! Mad with power and awesome! But I'll bring you to your senses with loving violence!"
>Danmaku her up.
> You prepare for battle and blast her several times with danmaku.
> Unfortunately, she appears to be some sort of psychokinetic space alien, as she has no trouble dispensing of the danmaku with the other end of her cane.
-
>"Impossible!"
>Shoot her some more, back away.
-
> "WHAT ARE YOU?!"
> Change element to fire. Try and evaporate the water in Nitori's head bowl thing Kappas have.
-
>"Impossible!"
>Shoot her some more, back away.
> You fire like a maniac, but still fail.
> "WHAT ARE YOU?!"
> Change element to fire. Try and evaporate the water in Nitori's head bowl thing Kappas have.
> "I am the imp that swims in your dreams! I am DARKGILL NITORI!
> You change to fire element and attempt to evaporate the water that you don't see or have any proof of it's existence. Nothing happens.
-
>"Oh yeah?! Well! Top this, loser!"
>Aerodash outta there!
>Are we running away? Oh no. We're just falling back, looking for a place to get a proper kitty hide on, and zap her in the backbits.
-
> Rip off that 'stache once you get an opportunity! It might be what's making Nitori so crazy!
-
>"Oh yeah?! Well! Top this, loser!"
>Aerodash outta there!
>Are we running away? Oh no. We're just falling back, looking for a place to get a proper kitty hide on, and zap her in the backbits.
> You hear a loud "Nyeeeeeh!" from behind you as you make your speedy escape.
> You dive into a far away bush and activate KITTY STEALTH. making yourself perfectly hidden.
> Rip off that 'stache once you get an opportunity! It might be what's making Nitori so crazy!
> You make a mental note.
-
>Does it sound like she's coming? If so, prepare to punch in the anything.
-
> Or stick out your foot from behind your hiding place once Poshtori comes near, hoping you'll trip her up.
-
>Does it sound like she's coming? If so, prepare to punch in the anything.
> You don't think she's heading your way. You prepare for combat regardless.
> Or stick out your foot from behind your hiding place once Poshtori comes near, hoping you'll trip her up.
> You set a triptrap.
-
>Can we hear her at all?
-
>Can we hear her at all?
> You can hear her faintly, off in the distance.
-
>If we feel confident in our stealths, creep toward that direction.
-
>If we feel confident in our stealths, creep toward that direction.
> You slowly creep in the direction of the noise.
-
>Keep at it until we see something or feel our stealth is endangered.
-
> Wait a minute, why are we doing this the hard way if we can do this the easy way?
> Sic Giant Shanghai on Poshtori.
-
>Because there is a nice forest here and only a jerk of a faerie would get it stomped up.
>Now, if she gets into the open...
-
>Keep at it until we see something or feel our stealth is endangered.
> You DO see bushes and trees.
> Wait a minute, why are we doing this the hard way if we can do this the easy way?
> Sic Giant Shanghai on Poshtori.
>Because there is a nice forest here and only a jerk of a faerie would get it stomped up.
>Now, if she gets into the open...
> You think that Shanghai would be funtimes here, but you decide that it'd be mean to crush any trees or woodland creatures.
> You start hatching a plan to use against Nitori.
-
>Keep kitty stealthing toward that noise.
-
>Keep kitty stealthing toward that noise.
> You continue to creep towards the noise.
> You return to the scene where you were attacked by Nitori, She turns around, spies you, and charges at you with her cane.
-
>Damn your failures Kitty Stealth!
-
> Aero dash to the side!
> Employ some basic danmaku after dodging.
-
>Damn your failures Kitty Stealth!
>STUPID STEALTH! YOU MADE ME LOOK BAD!
>OOGA BOOGA BOOGA
> Aero dash to the side!
> Employ some basic danmaku after dodging.
> You dodge, shooting her in the side of her gut with a burst.
> Nitori recoils, firing a few shots in response.
-
> Head back into the bushes.
-
> Head back into the bushes.
> You dive back into the bushes.
> All this running is starting to make you feel like a coward.
-
> Kitty stealth around the area to where Nitori's back is and charge back out.
-
> Or we can just employ giant Shanghai again...
-
> Kitty stealth around the area to where Nitori's back is and charge back out.
> Or we can just employ giant Shanghai again...
> You contemplate more stealth, but decide on using Shanghai's ability.
> No voice shoots the idea down this time, so you turn to Shanghai and command her to become SUPER Shanghai.
> "Shanghai!"
> Shanghai grows to a massive size, picking you up when large enough. Upon reaching a gargantuan size, she releases a bellowing "Shanghai!"
> You can't help but put on a smug grin. Nitori will have some explaining to do, at this rate.
> Your smug tirades are interrupted by movement below. In moments, an enormous Shanghai clone appears. This second Shanghai isn't quite as large, thankfully. The first thing you notice is the sharper, more robotic features. Nitori can be seen on the opposing Shanghai's shoulder. You somehow think this isn't going to end well.
-
> "OH C'MON!"
> "Punch her out Shanghai!"
-
> "OH C'MON!"
> "Punch her out Shanghai!"
> You express your strong distaste.
> "Nyehehe!"
> Shanghai winds up, giving Robohai a massive punch to the face. Robohai staggers backwards, Nitori looks inimpressed.
> "Shanghai!"
> "Shanghai-R, use your rockets!"
> Robohai raises an arm. It's fist flies off with, obviously, fire and smoke fuming behind it.
> Shanghai takes the shot, falling over from the sheer force of the hit.
> Nitori is laughing her head off.
-
>Try not to get crushed in the process.
>"KIck her feet out from under her, Shanghai!"
-
>Try not to get crushed in the process.
>"KIck her feet out from under her, Shanghai!"
> "Shanghai!"
> She wiggles her stubby legs, managing to sweep Robohai's legs out.
> Shanghai uses the opportunity to stand back up. Nitori looks quite distressed.
-
>Is Shanghai-R missing a hand from her last attack?
>Now to pin her down, but how? Not as though faeries know proper wrestling terms...
>"Now...uh...give her the biggest hug you can!"
-
>Is Shanghai-R missing a hand from her last attack?
>Now to pin her down, but how? Not as though faeries know proper wrestling terms...
>"Now...uh...give her the biggest hug you can!"
> It flew off into the distance. Seems like a bad first move to use in a fistfight.
> Shanghai looks a bit confused, but soon obliges, squeezing Robohai tightly on the ground.
> Nitori starts to giggle.
-
>Now hit Nitori Whiplash with a blast of danmaku while she's busy cackling.
>Aerodash in wake of it to show her a real rocket-powered fist!
-
>Now hit Nitori Whiplash with a blast of danmaku while she's busy cackling.
>Aerodash in wake of it to show her a real rocket-powered fist!
> You fire some rounds. They strike Nitori, causing her to stumble.
> Robohai's head begins to spin at high speed.
> You dash towards Nitori and punch her in the kisser! She passes out from the strike.
> Robohai's voice booms.
> "MASTER DAMAGED, DEFENSIVE MODE INITIATED!"
> Her head releases an energy current. It mingles with her head spinning, forming a barrier around herself and Nitori.
> You instinctively dash back to Shanghai, whom is launched backwards by the shield.
-
>"That head spinning just isn't right! How could you do that to your Shanghai!"
>Who cares if she's unconscious, the force of our words shall penetrate her dreams!
>...Wait a minute.
>Point at Shanghai-R.
>"You can talk!"
-
>"That head spinning just isn't right! How could you do that to your Shanghai!"
>Who cares if she's unconscious, the force of our words shall penetrate her dreams!
>...Wait a minute.
>Point at Shanghai-R.
>"You can talk!"
> She's pretty unconscious. And you aren't some sort of Succubus. Your words go unheeded.
> You point dramatically at Robohai. She's still spinning her head to repel you.
> Something tells you she'll be spinning until Nitori wakes up.
-
>"Well, uh...Good Job, Shanghai!"
>Administer hugs around the neck and face region.
>After that, try zapping the shield with various single shots from the elements we've tapped into, see if there's any real effect.
-
>"Well, uh...Good Job, Shanghai!"
>Administer hugs around the neck and face region.
>After that, try zapping the shield with various single shots from the elements we've tapped into, see if there's any real effect.
> "Shanghai!"
> She cuddles with you. You find it to be absolutely adorable.
> You decide to zap the shield with every different weapon you have. It all fails.
> Shanghai gets an idea. Her tiny axe grows to a massive size, worthy of her wielding.
> "Shanghai Shanghai!"
> You had no idea she could do this.
> Shanghai slams her axe against the shield. It recoils backwards, flies up in the air, and slams into the ground, wedging itself in the earth.
> "...Shanghai."
-
>"Oh man, I hope there wasn't anyone living down there..."
>"Hey, try the lance!"
-
>"Oh man, I hope there wasn't anyone living down there..."
>"Hey, try the lance!"
> She tilts her head.
> "Shanghai?"
> Time warp, remember?
> Nitori wakes up. The robot's head spinning ceases.
> You hear a loud fwoosh sound. Shanghai is on the ground in an instant. Looking up, you see that Robohai's fist has flown back.
-
>Curse you time warps!
>"Get her in the knees!"
>How does Dr Awkward seem to be in the wake of her beating, despite regaining consciousness?
-
>Curse you time warps!
>"Get her in the knees!"
>How does Dr Awkward seem to be in the wake of her beating, despite regaining consciousness?
> You lament the horrors of your own meddling with time.
> "Shanghai!"
> Shanghai utilizes her (not so) great reflexes to move herself into a position where she can attack Robohai's knees. With a mighty stubfooted kick, Robohai stumbles backwards, tumbling over.
> Nitori appears to be bleeding heavily from the forehead. She's not in very good condition.
-
>"Hey! You should give up and get that looked at!"
-
>"Hey! You should give up and get that looked at!"
> "I have nowhere to go..."
> Robohai reveals boosters on it's back, firing off. She accelerates at high speeds, rearing up it's fists to strike.
-
> Make Shanghai duck under it! Now!
-
> Make Shanghai duck under it! Now!
> Shanghai's lack of knees make this feat quite difficult. She instead leans forward, causing her head to connect with Robohai's stomach. Both dolls tumble backwards with a crash.
-
>"What do you mean you have nowhere to go? Where did you even come from!"
>"Hug the crap out of her, Shanghai!"
-
>"What do you mean you have nowhere to go? Where did you even come from!"
>"Hug the crap out of her, Shanghai!"
> "Nyeeeeeh!"
> She twirls her mustache.
> Shanghai is pretty thoroughly out of it.
-
>"That's not an answer!"
-
>"That's not an answer!"
> She's too busy trying to rouse her own dazed super doll to listen.
-
>Aerodash into a punch!
>But this, time, try to knock her cane away instead of hitting her.
-
>Aerodash into a punch!
>But this, time, try to knock her cane away instead of hitting her.
> You dash at her cane and attempt to snatch and/or knock it away! She reacts in time and thwacks you across the cheek with it. You promptly smash headfirst into Robohai's neck.
> Everything goes black.
-
>"Oh damn it not again!"
-
>"Oh damn it not again!"
> You curse at...no one, really.
> Nothing happens.
-
>Try to move, and do something about everything going black.
-
> Can we feel anything at all?
-
>Try to move, and do something about everything going black.
> Can we feel anything at all?
> You move easily, realizing your eyes are closed. You open them.
> You see Shanghai by your side, back to her normal size. Her right arm has been severed.
> Nitori kicks you in the side.
> "Your magic is no match for my SCIENCE!"
> She rears her cane to bash you on the head.
-
>She kicked us? Grab her foot! Then tree top her!
-
>She kicked us? Grab her foot! Then tree top her!
> You grab her foot and bring her down. Now is your chance!
-
>There is only one solution. With the powers invested in us by the forces of righteousness and awesome, we must PUNCH HER IN THE DICK! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_WUcKgOav0c)
