This is an Unprecedented Shino Affair... WHAT?!

[Tamashii Kanjou]

>"Why, are you hoping to talk me into it?"
>Look up.

>You look up above you and, sure enough, the familiar sight of a long purple-haired magician is floating down towards you.

<"Why? You hoping to talk me into it?"
>"Now would I suggest such a thing?"

>...

[GuyYouMetOnline]

>"Maybe."
>"But I'm actually here on business. I have something to return to you."
>Give her the books.

[Hello Purvis]

>"Oh, Kanjou said this one has some boring curse on it, so be careful when you open it."

[Tamashii Kanjou]

>"Maybe."
>"But I'm actually here on business. I have something to return to you."
>Give her the books.

>"Oh, Kanjou said this one has some boring curse on it, so be careful when you open it."

<"Ahehehe... Maybe."
>Patchouli sighs as you remove your back-pack and start digging for the books.

<"But I'm actually here on business. I have something to return to you."
>You start pulling out each book and placing it on what little room there is on the table.
>"Ah, it's nice to see someone bringing books back."
>You stop on the last book, and hold it in front of Patchouli.
<"Before I forget, Kanjou said this one had some boring curse on it, so be careful when you...."
>Patchouli grabs the book before you finish and removes it from your grip.
>"Heh; it's funny that you call it a curse. But thank you, regardless."

>...

[Hello Purvis]

>"Well it's a bad magic thing, so of course it's a curse."

[Tamashii Kanjou]

>"Well it's a bad magic thing, so of course it's a curse."

<"It's a bad magic thing, right? So it's obviously a curse."
>"Well, it won't do me any harm."
>No sooner has she finished that line, she coughs a little.
>"Is... is that everything?"

>"Ah, little mistress, you must not..."
>"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaand... POP!"

>Something can be heard shattering to your left; out of sight of course.
>Patchouli walks a few steps towards the direction of the noise before stopping; her eye-sight leaving you.

>...

[Hello Purvis]

>"What was that?"

[Tamashii Kanjou]

>"What was that?"

<"What was that?"
>"Sounds like Flandre is having a bit of fun again."
>Patchouli rubs her forehead a little.
>"I was starting to wonder where Koakuma was as well."

>...

[E-Nazrin]

>"Y'think they'll need any help?"

I assume we're not taking advantage of her not looking over here in hopes of getting to Sakuya.

[Hello Purvis]

It strengthens our case, yes.

[Tamashii Kanjou]

>"Y'think they'll need any help?"

<"Erm... Y'think they'll need any help?"
>"They'll probably be fine... providing-they-don't-wreck-the-rest-of-the-library."
>Patchouli coughs a little more wildly this time; but stops a few seconds later.
>"Is... is there anything... else you need to see me for?"

>...

[Hello Purvis]

>"Do you know where Sakuya is?"

[Tamashii Kanjou]

>"Do you know where Sakuya is?"

<"Actually, do you know where Sakuya is?"
>Patchouli turns to look at you; frowning a bit.
>"I've not seen her, but I've been told she has returned from her morning errands."
>She takes a step toward you.
>"Perhaps I should ask again... You're not planning on doing anything, are you?"

>...

[Hello Purvis]

>"You sure are mean to people who do you favors for free, you know that?"

[Tamashii Kanjou]

>"You sure are mean to people who do you favors for free, you know that?"

<"You know, you sure are mean to people who do you favors for free..."
>"I don't recall how this is...."

>"BOOM, DA ZE~"

>You can hear a couple of doors slam against the wall hard.
>If the entrance didn't get enough attention...
>"Marisaaaaaaa~"
>"Ooooh; if it isn't Flandre. What are you..."
>"Play with me!"
>"PATCHOULI-SAMA!"

>...

[Hello Purvis]

>Well, this is probably going to get in the way. Oh well...
>"Hey! How's it going?"
>What is our status with Marisa, and her status in our target book.

[Tamashii Kanjou]

>Well, this is probably going to get in the way. Oh well...
>"Hey! How's it going?"
>What is our status with Marisa, and her status in our target book.

>Oh great. This could ruin everything...
>Marisa is as playful as they come. She often encourages your antics; so you see her as an ally rather then an opponent.
>Of course, this also means that she gets in the way with certain things; normally your attempts on Patchouli, which you're sure she does on purpose.

<"HEY! How's it going?"
>You call out to get Marisa's attention. You get it very swiftly; followed closely by an on-coming Flandre AND Koakuma.
>"It's the yuri girl!" Marisa chirps as she flies down toward you. "Coming through, ze~"
>She flies right past you, swiping a couple of books from the table in the process.
>The red book wasn't taken. Did Marisa miss it?
>Flandre comes storming through; sending the table, along with the books, flying into the air.
>Koakuma stops in time, but the three of you (Patchy, Koa and yourself) are facing an immediate book shower.

>...

[Hello Purvis]

>"Gyah!"
>Dive aside. Or failing that, behind one of the others.

[Tamashii Kanjou]

>"Gyah!"
>Dive aside. Or failing that, behind one of the others.

>TAKE EVASIVE ACTION!
<"GYAH!"
>You dive to your left; right in the path of Koakuma, who was in the process of moving forwards.
>The pair of you collide; your momentum causing Koakuma to fall backwards.
>You both land flat on the ground; Koakuma on the floor with you on top of her.
>Books land around you; a couple of them hit your back.

>...

[Hello Purvis]

>Well, can't fight fate. Just lay there for now. We did take a spill.
>Hee hee.

[Tamashii Kanjou]

>Well, can't fight fate. Just lay there for now. We did take a spill.
>Hee hee.

>This moment is just too good to miss.
>You stay on top of Koakuma for a little while; it was due to an incident after all.
>Koakuma doesn't look that flustered; if anything, she seems worried.
>"Ar...Are you ok?"

>She obviously doesn't realise the situation she's in.
>Hehehehe~

>...

[Hello Purvis]

>"I think so. The room's supposed to spin, right?"

[Tamashii Kanjou]

>"I think so. The room's supposed to spin, right?"

<"Erm... I think so. The room's supposed to spin... right?"
>Koakuma laughs a little.
>"Books can be hard, you know."
>"If you have finished down there..."
>That's one unamused Patchouli speaking.
>"I'd advise you both get up..."
>As if to hammer the point in a little more, an explosion can be heard not too far off.

>...

[Hello Purvis]

>Get up. And take advantage of that process, we need to put our hands somewhere for balance.

[Tamashii Kanjou]

>Get up. And take advantage of that process, we need to put our hands somewhere for balance.

>You begin to get up; shifting your weight a little so you can get the right balance.
>Of course, you're not letting this moment pass you by.
>Your hands, yes both of them, press down on Koakuma's breasts.
>Ah, such a lovely size... *grope*
>She shrieks a little; closing her eyes in the process.
>You finally stand up as Koakuma begins to rise too.
>Patchouli, thankfully, is looking the other way. To be fair, a spray of multi-coloured stars would distract anyone.

>...

[Hello Purvis]

>Kekekeke..
>Have a look at why there are stars everywhere.

[Tamashii Kanjou]

>Kekekeke..
>Have a look at why there are stars everywhere.

>Just as planned! Your grin is so big right now it's...
>Woah! Lots of stars!
>Hey... is that Marisa flying over there? Looks like she's spreading her usual starry danmaku at...
>A Flandre who just cloned herself and flew off in four different directions...
>Patchouli is now beginning to float upwards.
>"Koakuma, I want the doors shut asap. We don't want Remilia to hear this racket."
>"H..HAI!"

>...

[Hello Purvis]

>Well crap! Let's get out of those doors before we get shut in.

[Tamashii Kanjou]

>Well crap! Let's get out of those doors before we get shut in.

>Wait what?!

>Koakuma is moving quickly; you'd best get a move on before you're locked in with them.
>You start flying back the way you came and realise a sudden problem...
>"There's one of me for each of you now~"
>Flandre, you're not sure if it's a clone or the original, is flying towards you.
>"So we can all play together!"

>...,

[Hello Purvis]

>In a quiet hiss: "Stick to the plan, remember?"
