Reimu Quest - A Paradise At Heart

[Nekomata-chan]

>Alright, let's get close to the gap, focus, and then snatch Tenshi's hat off her head before she even notices it!
>Then, we'll fill it with the cheese!

>You get close to the gap.
>You pull Tenshi's hat clean from her head, and she doesn't notice it... yet.
>Filling it full of cheese, you notice it takes a while for Tenshi to notice.

>THen, wait for Tenshi to notice her hat's missing, and then splat!

>Tenshi suddenly looks down and to her right, thinking it had blown off, "Where did that hat get to..?"
>You splat Tenshi's cheese-filled hat onto her head.
>She screams and tries to pull the hat off.
>The stringy, sticky cheese almost prevents her from getting it off.
>"What kind of dumb, cruel, cheap trick is this?! When I find out who this was, it's a big plate of earthquake for dinner!" she screeches quietly to herself.

[Hanzo K.]

>Repress a chuckle, then move away from the gap, grinning madly.
>Well, guess we found out why Yukari and fairies do this, it's kinda fun!

[Nekomata-chan]

>Repress a chuckle, then move away from the gap, grinning madly.
>Well, guess we found out why Yukari and fairies do this, it's kinda fun!

>Yukari nudges you in a joking way, "I must be contagious."
>She half-closes the gap, moving it around as Tenshi furiously glares around her for the "culprit".

>Aya and Kouga return. Kouga looks almost... tired... and Aya looks extremely proud of herself.

[Hanzo K.]

>Grin. "Apparently."
>Beat.
>Devious, Yukari-esque smirk. "I just had an idea to make this even better."

[Nekomata-chan]

>Grin. "Apparently."
>Beat.
>Devious, Yukari-esque smirk. "I just had an idea to make this even better."

>Yukari leans in, curious, "What, what, what~? You've got me interested now!"

[Hanzo K.]

>Grin. "Wasabi. Right on her tongue. Via a gap. Should be fun to watch."

[Nekomata-chan]

>Grin. "Wasabi. Right on her tongue. Via a gap. Should be fun to watch."

>Yukari reaches into a gap and pulls out a jar of wasabi and a spoon.
>She gathers a heaped spoonful of the wasabi and slowly slides the spoon into another, smaller gap.

>Yukari pulls the spoon out, empty.
>Through the original gap, you can see Tenshi squirming and batting at her tongue, whilst steady pulses of her screams leak through the gap.

[Hanzo K.]

>Let's have a laugh! "Ahahaha! This is rich!"
>Look to Suika, Yukari, and Kouga. "You guys got any ideas for other tricks to pull?"

[Nekomata-chan]

>Let's have a laugh! "Ahahaha! This is rich!"
>Look to Suika, Yukari, and Kouga. "You guys got any ideas for other tricks to pull?"

>Suika and Yukari are laughing too much to speak.
>Kouga, holding back a laugh, asks, "Why don't you replace her socks with live fish?"
>Suika howls in laughter, "That's an amazing idea!!"

[Hanzo K.]

>Walk over and clap 'im on the back. "That's a great idea! You're making me proud, Kouga!"
>"Yukari, let's do that!"

[Nekomata-chan]

>Walk over and clap 'im on the back. "That's a great idea! You're making me proud, Kouga!"
>"Yukari, let's do that!"

>Kouga grins, "I think Yukari is a little too contagious."

>Yukari grabs four live fish from gaps, two large ones and two smaller ones.
>She grins, "The larger fish are for underneath her feet, the smaller ones are for the tops of her feet."

[Hanzo K.]

>Laugh. "This is gonna be rich!"
>Beat.
>"....How are we gonna pull this one off?"

[Nekomata-chan]

>Laugh. "This is gonna be rich!"
>Beat.
>"....How are we gonna pull this one off?"

>Everyone falls silent.
>Kouga speaks up, "I have a plan."

[Hanzo K.]

>Grin. "Let's hear it then. I'm looking forward to seeing how this'll play out."
>Let's look to the gap to see how she's holding up with the wasabi.

[Nekomata-chan]

>Grin. "Let's hear it then. I'm looking forward to seeing how this'll play out."
>Let's look to the gap to see how she's holding up with the wasabi.

>Tenshi has resorted to licking her own arm to clear the wasabi from her tongue... odd.

>Kouga clears his throat, "Well, I was thinking... I could become my tiger form, and jump out of a gap and surprise her... when she turns to run off, or run towards me to slice my head off, whatever, then you could reach through a gap on the ground and seize her ankles. Then, you can steal her shoes and socks and replace the shoes with fish intact..."
>Yukari nods, "Not bad."

[Hanzo K.]

>Beat.
>"That should work! I knew I did it right when I summoned a Shikigami like you!"
>Ruffle his hair with a proud grin.
>"Oh, I think she's going to need more wasabi again here in a moment."

[Nekomata-chan]

>Beat.
>"That should work! I knew I did it right when I summoned a Shikigami like you!"
>Ruffle his hair with a proud grin.

>Kouga grins in a slightly over-excited manner.

>"Oh, I think she's going to need more wasabi again here in a moment."

>Yukari blinks, pulling her hand and an empty spoon out of a gap, "Three miles ahead of you."

[Hanzo K.]

>Let's grin too!
>"Alright then, let's set the preparations for the next prank!"

[Nekomata-chan]

>Let's grin too!
>"Alright then, let's set the preparations for the next prank!"

>Yukari nods, "We'll watch Kouga through a separate gap, then set one up just in Tenshi's path as she runs either to or from him. Ought to be good."
>Kouga nods too, "At first I thought she'd run away, but the more I think about it the more I think that she's going to run towards me."

>Chen quietly calls, "Good luck, Kouga!"

[Hanzo K.]

>Laugh. "Hell, just seeing her freaked-out face when she comes face to face with a tiger oughta be worth it."
>Grin like a madman. "Alright! Let's do this!"

[Nekomata-chan]

>Laugh. "Hell, just seeing her freaked-out face when she comes face to face with a tiger oughta be worth it."
>Grin like a madman. "Alright! Let's do this!"

>Yukari opens a viewing gap for everyone to watch through.

>Kouga quickly disappears into a spiral of white smoke, a large and rather tough-looking white tiger in his place.
>Yukari opens a large gap, and Kouga leaps through it.

>Through the gap, you see Kouga land several feet in front of Tenshi, and he really plays on it. Snarling, growling, and looking ready to pounce.
>Tenshi stays frozen in place for a while, not even blinking.
>It only takes Kouga moving forward one inch to make her run away screaming.

>Yukari opens another gap, seizing Tenshi's ankles and pulling them through.
>With one arm around her ankles, she forces off Tenshi's shoes and socks, passing the fish and shoes to you whilst she wrestles to keep Tenshi in place.

[Hanzo K.]

>Let's do this! Replace her socks with the fish like Kouga said!
>But not before tickling her a bit first.

[Nekomata-chan]

>Let's do this! Replace her socks with the fish like Kouga said!
>But not before tickling her a bit first.

>You stuff the fish into Tenshi's shoes.
>Yukari tosses the socks into another, useless gap. Never to be seen again.
>You then tickle Tenshi's feet, and she screams as Kouga freaks her out by leering at her and slowly edging closer.

>She screams "What kind of torture is this?! Why is there a white tiger up here?!"

>After tickling her for a while, you return her fish-filled shoes to her feet, and she screeches even louder.

[Hanzo K.]

>"Gahahahaha!"
>Beat.
>"Suika, I think the Oni way of laughing is contagious too."
>Grin. "But anyhow, let's bring Kouga back now, and watch Tenshi struggle with the fishy payload!"

[Nekomata-chan]

>"Gahahahaha!"
>Beat.
>"Suika, I think the Oni way of laughing is contagious too."

>Suika shrugs, "Maybe you confused your internal organs with all that sake, so it told your brain that you are now an Oni."

>Grin. "But anyhow, let's bring Kouga back now, and watch Tenshi struggle with the fishy payload!"

>Yukari opens a gap and beckons Kouga back through.
>Kouga leaps through the gap, returning to his half-human form in mid-leap.

>Tenshi tries to get her shoes off, but the wriggling fish are causing her to squirm and her shoes are too wet for her to grip onto properly.

[Hanzo K.]

>Chuckle. "Maybe Suika, maybe! It'd explain why I'm interested in causing an incident of my own, or just plain mindless pranking."
>Beat.
>"I just had yet another idea. Icecubes in her undergarments. That oughta set her to squirming more eh?"

[Nekomata-chan]

>Chuckle. "Maybe Suika, maybe! It'd explain why I'm interested in causing an incident of my own, or just plain mindless pranking."
>Beat.

>Suika pats your back, "Everybody loves a prank. Heck, I bet even Alice would be partial to pranking someone... even though she is a stone-cold serious-face."

>"I just had yet another idea. Icecubes in her undergarments. That oughta set her to squirming more, eh?"

>Yukari grins, reaching into a small gap and retrieving a tray of ice-cubes, "I have a feeling that if she finds out it was us, she won't be happy. She can't do much damage to your shrine via an earthquake unless she's that annoyed that she removes the keystone."

[Hanzo K.]

>Chuckle. "Yeah, that's the fun part. Knowing she can't get me back, since this is partially payback for the time she leveled my shrine, and partially because I feel like it."
>Grin. "Now, let's do this."
>Set to putting in the icecubes when Yukari passes them to us, and opens the gap or gaps to do so.

[Nekomata-chan]

>Chuckle. "Yeah, that's the fun part. Knowing she can't get me back, since this is partially payback for the time she leveled my shrine, and partially because I feel like it."
>Grin. "Now, let's do this."
>Set to putting in the icecubes when Yukari passes them to us, and opens the gap or gaps to do so.

>Suika grins, "Absolutely right.

>Yukari hands you the tray of ice-cubes and opens a gap for you to pour the ice-cubes in, "Fire away, prankster."

[Hanzo K.]

>Let's stick them in slowly at first, just one at a time.
>Then, dump the whole thing in!
