Yuyuko Quest - Perfect Cherry Blossom

[Nekomata-chan]

>Smile in that typically bubbly manner. "Well, 'she' is a he for the time being, and boys are always like that, blunt and to the point~ It almost reminds me of dear old Youki...I wonder where he's gotten himself to these days?"

>Youmu shrugs, "I wouldn't know..."

>"As for Reimu's weight, who knows~?"

>'Sano' laughs awkwardly, "I guess I ought to stay on Reimu's good side, or she'll eat me!!"
>The room falls silent.
>Yukari laughs, "Oh, jokes are just NOT your forte, are they?"

[Hanzo K.]

>Chuckle. "Well, I for one found it rather amusing. Albeit for different reasons~"

[Nekomata-chan]

>Chuckle. "Well, I for one found it rather amusing. Albeit for different reasons~"

>Ichirin suddenly cuts in, "Hate to interrupt the party, but us lot are still male! Fancy, uh, changing us back?"

[Hanzo K.]

>....Fistpalm! "That's right! With Murasa, there was a 30 minute time limit! Yukari, if you would?"

[Nekomata-chan]

>....Fistpalm! "That's right! With Murasa, there was a 30 minute time limit! Yukari, if you would?"

>Yukari smiles, "Of course!"
>In seconds, the Buddhists return to their original female form. All but Unzan are relieved. It seemed Unzan liked being female...

[Hanzo K.]

>It must've been the headpats~
>Look to Yukari with a look that says 'Taoists next~' "Well, it was rather interesting, seeing you all again. And in more ways than one~"
>Look to everyone else. "Alright then, let's move on to our next destination~!"

[Nekomata-chan]

>It must've been the headpats~
>Look to Yukari with a look that says 'Taoists next~' "Well, it was rather interesting, seeing you all again. And in more ways than one~"
>Look to everyone else. "Alright then, let's move on to our next destination~!"

>Everyone gets to their feet, but 'Sano' grabs your attention, "What do we do with Reimu? I can't carry her..."

[Hanzo K.]

>.....We hadn't thought of that had we?
>....Wait, brainspark! "Yukari, I do believe you can fiddle with Reimu's border of light and heavy, correct? I believe that should be helpful enough~"

[Nekomata-chan]

>.....We hadn't thought of that had we?
>....Wait, brainspark! "Yukari, I do believe you can fiddle with Reimu's border of light and heavy, correct? I believe that should be helpful enough~"

>Yukari smiles at 'Sano', "Pick Reimu up! Go on!"
>'Sano' reluctantly attempts to lift Reimu, and shows evident shock when Reimu can be lifted with one finger.
>The Buddhists step aside, leaving the doorway clear.

[Hanzo K.]

>Glance to Byakuren before fully departing. "It was rather enjoyable, you're always welcome to visit for lunch~ And even though I am repeating myself, you were rather handsome~ Well, farewell~!"
>Let's get going to the Taoists now!

[Nekomata-chan]

>Glance to Byakuren before fully departing. "It was rather enjoyable, you're always welcome to visit for lunch~ And even though I am repeating myself, you were rather handsome~ Well, farewell~!"
>Let's get going to the Taoists now!

>You exit the Myouren Temple, and Yukari walks ahead.
>Yukari opens a gap, "It's hassle to get there normally, everybody go through the gap!!"

[Hanzo K.]

>Nod with an oblivious-seeming smile. "Ever the forward-thinker Yukari~!"
>Let's get going through the gap!

[Nekomata-chan]

>Nod with an oblivious-seeming smile. "Ever the forward-thinker Yukari~!"
>Let's get going through the gap!

>You all head through the gap..
>... right into the flight path of none other than Seiga Kaku herself.
>The hermit raises an eyebrow, "Sorry..."

[Hanzo K.]

>Bow politely with our usual airheaded smile. "Think nothing of it, how was I to know you would be there~?"

[Nekomata-chan]

>Bow politely with our usual airheaded smile. "Think nothing of it, how was I to know you would be there~?"

>Seiga blinks as the gap behind Yukari closes, "Did you just... come through thin air? Are you a hermit, too?"

[Hanzo K.]

>Smile in that typically ditzy manner. "Hermit? Ah, I suppose you could say that after a fashion, but no, I'm afraid not~"

[Nekomata-chan]

>Smile in that typically ditzy manner. "Hermit? Ah, I suppose you could say that after a fashion, but no, I'm afraid not~"

>Seiga raises an eyebrow, "So what brings you to the Hermits' Dojo, then? If you're looking for Toyosatomimi no Miko, she's just down the hallway~.."
>Seiga points down the hall, at the end of which is an ornate wooden door.

[Hanzo K.]

>Keep on smilin'. "I actually came to visit everyone here, along with bringing my friends~"

[Nekomata-chan]

>Keep on smilin'. "I actually came to visit everyone here, along with bringing my friends~"

>Seiga gives a small smile, "Ah, that's nice."
>"Seeeeee~iga~! Master Seeee~iga!!" calls a rather... odd-sounding voice. Out of apparently nowhere, a girl hops over, struck with what seems to be rigor-mortis and has a seal on her forehead. Her arms are out in front of her.
>Seiga sighs, "I don't think you've met Yoshika, have you...?"

[Hanzo K.]

>Headtilt adorably. "No, I don't think I have~ But she seems to have a little difficulty in finer movement, it must be hard for the poor dear~"

[Nekomata-chan]

>Headtilt adorably. "No, I don't think I have~ But she seems to have a little difficulty in finer movement, it must be hard for the poor dear~"

>Seiga sighs, "Well, she is a Jiang-shi. A zombie, if you will. But rather well-preserved, and more loyal than your green-clad gardener."
>Youmu mutters without moving her mouth in a noticeable enough manner, "I beg to differ."
>Yukari raises an eyebrow, "Oh, so you recognise us?"
>Seiga shrugs, "Not at first, but it didn't take long for me to make an educated guess based on appearance."
>She points to Keine and Mokou, "These two, however, I don't know."
>Keine and Mokou sigh, "Nobody ever knows us..!"

[Hanzo K.]

>Smile. "Well, I suppose that skips the introductions then~"
>Look over to Keine and Mokou briefly. "Well, people can't be blamed for that, you two look remarkably different from your usual after all~"
>Float around Yoshika, looking her over, occasionally poking random spots. "A Jiang-shi hmm~? ....I wonder if they taste any good?"
>Headshake, followed by folding our arms with a thoughtful-seeming headtilt. "No...probably a mite moldy...Aaah, this is just too much to figure out~!"
>Throw up our arms with a carefully falsified look that says 'screw trying to figure this out anymore!'
>Then smile adorably. "Since I've given up on trying to figure that out, I think I'll just have some tea instead~"

[Nekomata-chan]

>Smile. "Well, I suppose that skips the introductions then~"
>Look over to Keine and Mokou briefly. "Well, people can't be blamed for that, you two look remarkably different from your usual after all~"

>Keine and Mokou both shrug acceptingly.
>Keine looks at Mokou, "Byakuren was right, you do look like Akyuu..."

>Float around Yoshika, looking her over, occasionally poking random spots. "A Jiang-shi hmm~? ....I wonder if they taste any good?"
>Headshake, followed by folding our arms with a thoughtful-seeming headtilt. "No...probably a mite moldy...Aaah, this is just too much to figure out~!"
>Throw up our arms with a carefully falsified look that says 'screw trying to figure this out anymore!'

>As you poke Yoshika, she doesn't actually seem to mind and carries on smiling, completely oblivious to what you're saying.
>"Even if you were to try, you'd be sick for a while," Seiga smirks, "I've seen it happen, it's not pretty.

>Then smile adorably. "Since I've given up on trying to figure that out, I think I'll just have some tea instead~"

>Seiga smiles, "Follow me, then~"
>She floats down the hallway, going to hold the door open at the end of it.

[Hanzo K.]

>Let's follow then! "Hmm-hmm~♪"

[Nekomata-chan]

>Let's follow then! "Hmm-hmm~♪"

>You follow Seiga, and she leads you through a door into a tearoom, before gesturing for you all to sit down.
>"I'll go prepare some tea, and alert the others that you're here." Seiga smiles, before passing through the wall.
>Mononobe no Futo pokes her head around the door, "Seiga? Oh, she's not in here. Swore I just heard her. Oh well... oh, hey, Yuyuko!"

[Hanzo K.]

>Smile brightly. "Hello~ She went to make some tea."
>"I thought I'd come for a visit, and bring some friends~"

[Nekomata-chan]

>Smile brightly. "Hello~ She went to make some tea."
>"I thought I'd come for a visit, and bring some friends~"

>Futo blinks, "Seiga making tea? This is a first."
>She leans over her shoulder, "Tojiko!! Seiga's gone to make tea, make sure she doesn't explode anything!!"
>Miko leans around the door, "Wondered what all the noise was. I heard Seiga was making tea and came to check nobody had died yet."

[Hanzo K.]

>Giggle. "Oh my, that reminds me of the time we tried to make hotpot, Yukari~ We were cleaning onions out of the walls and celing for weeks afterwards~ It's a good thing I have Youmu around~"

[Nekomata-chan]

>Giggle. "Oh my, that reminds me of the time we tried to make hotpot, Yukari~ We were cleaning onions out of the walls and celing for weeks afterwards~ It's a good thing I have Youmu around~"

>Miko laughs awkwardly, "Yes, well, just prepare your mouth and stomach for something worse than vomit mixed with ash and spoilt apples.
>Seiga floats through the wall with a tray full of tea for everyone, "Tea's ready~!"
>She places a cup in front of everyone, and when she places a cup before you...
>Inside the cup is some sour-smelling greyish-green gunge with a soot-like collection of grainy black lumps floating about in it.
>Yukari confidentally goes for a sip and you see some of the colour drain from her face, "Deli-...-cious..."

[Hanzo K.]

>Well, we're already dead to begin with, so why not? Can't be worse than the cooking we tried with Yukari.
