Mystia 'Quest': Making a Living [Complete]

[Hello Purvis]

>"...Why do all the mean people have the tubs? Sounds like even the going to the shrine would be better than that!"

[Raikaria]

>"...Why do all the mean people have the tubs? Sounds like even the going to the shrine would be better than that!"

> "Miss Houraisan wasn't mean, she fixed me!" Kogasa protests, completely forgetting it was partially her fault she needed fixing, although the serious damage was done by fire.

> "You'll probobly find that Miss Kanzami's 'buckety thing' is something she uses to her her sow flower seeds or some other gardening aspect. She's an avid gardener, it's what she loves to do most in the world. Which is why your nightbug freind goes to visit her so often and is still alive. Insects and plants are linked." Ichirin says, before adding, "It would probobly be suicide to try and persuade her to give something she uses for gardening to you."

[IdiotsOpposite]

Hey, I have an idea. Let's NOT try to get a buckety thing from Yuuka.

Is it late enough to go visit the shrine after all? And do we still have our monies for Reimu?

[Raikaria]

> Good idea.

> It is likly late enough now. You still have the money Rinnosuke left, although you can easily stop off by your stash on the way and grab more shiny.

[IdiotsOpposite]

I vote we drop by our stash, grab as much shiny from there as we got from Rinnosuke, then head to Hakurei Shrine.

[GuyYouMetOnline]

Works for me.

[Raikaria]

I vote we drop by our stash, grab as much shiny from there as we got from Rinnosuke, then head to Hakurei Shrine.

> You grab more shiny from your stash on your way to the Hakurei Shrine.

> When you get there, you see Sukia laying on the roof and drinking, and Reimu at the foot of the shrine, shouting at the oni to get down.

[IdiotsOpposite]

>Laugh at the scene, but not loudly enough for Reimu to hear.

>Approach donation box. See if Reimu notices.

[Raikaria]

>Laugh at the scene, but not loudly enough for Reimu to hear.

>Approach donation box. See if Reimu notices.

> You afford a chuckle at the scene. You wonder why Reimu's so agitated about Sukia being on the roof, until the Oni gets up and begins to throw what looks like an eight-year old's hissy fit about it. You can virtually hear the roof straining as the Oni stamps on it.

> Needless to say, with this scene, Reimu dosen't notice you approach her donation box. It's not like anything happens with it.

[Hello Purvis]

>What time of day is it?
>What does the shrine and its surroundings look like?

[Raikaria]

>What time of day is it?
>What does the shrine and its surroundings look like?

> You don't have a clock, but a quick look at the position of the sun tells you between 9 and 10 am. You're a lot better at telling the time using the moon than the sun, as a youkai most active during the night.

> The shrine looks the same it always has, on top of a hill, surrounded by trees. It does have an Oni on the roof stomping on it, however, so how long it STAYS looking like this is down to if Reimu can calm Sukia down.

[GuyYouMetOnline]

>Greet Reimu.
>Toss some coins in the box.

[Raikaria]

>Greet Reimu.
>Toss some coins in the box.

> You attempt to greet Reimu, but she and Sukia are too busy having a shouting match to take notice. Reimu's basically shouting varients of 'stop stomping on my roof' and Sukia is spewing drunken nonsense and 'dun wanna' generally.

> They both stop when the faint clunk of a coin hitting the bottom of the donation box is heard.

> "I'm hearing things now." Reimu says.

> You put another coin in. Curse this box having a slot only large enough for one coin at a time.

> Sukia looks shocked, and is pointing at the box. Reimu isn't turning, but isn't doing anything.

[Hello Purvis]

>"Hey, are you busy?"

[Raikaria]

>"Hey, are you busy?"

> Reimu turns around very slowly, and sees you standing over the donation box.

> She then faints.

> Sukia jumps off the roof and starts pouring sake down Reimu's mouth, slurring about how it makes everything better.

[Hello Purvis]

>"Hey...don't shrine maidens drown and stuff?"

[Raikaria]

>"Hey...don't shrine maidens drown and stuff?"

> "Oni suuuure don't!" Sukia says, before stopping.

> "Wait, she wouldn't come to my rooftop party... she dosen't deserve any!" the oni then totters inside the shrine.

> Reimu seems to be coming to.

[Hello Purvis]

>Let the oni saunter away. No need to get caught in any crossfires.
>"Um. Are you...okay?"

[Raikaria]

>Let the oni saunter away. No need to get caught in any crossfires.
>"Um. Are you...okay?"

> Sukia has already sauntered, even then, it would be stupid to try and stop an Oni sauntering.

> "I had the weirdest dream... Sukia was on the roof, danceing, and someone put money in my donation box." Reimu says.

[Hello Purvis]

>"It wasn't a dream. Also I think that oni tried to drown you with sake after you fell over..."

[Raikaria]

>"It wasn't a dream. Also I think that oni tried to drown you with sake after you fell over..."

> Reimu dosen't look like she quite belives you, and walks over to the donation box.

> "Yeah, she probobly tried to drown me, I do taste sake..." Reimu says, as she lifts the lid.

> Reimu promptly faints again upon looking inside. You guess she's just not used to seeing anything in there.

[IdiotsOpposite]

Since the lid's open, this might be the right time to put the rest of the money inside. So we don't have to deal with the annoying "one coin at a time" thing.

> You wisely decide to empty your pockets of the remaining shiny before Reimu comes to. You don't want to put one coin in at a time, and you don't want Reimu fainting every time she sees you putting one in either.

[IdiotsOpposite]

So I guess the next thing to do is wake Reimu up?

Let's try gently shaking her at first. If not, we can try something more... pointed.

> You shake Reimu.

> "Five more minuites Yukari..."

[capt. h]

> You shake Reimu.

> "Five more minuites Yukari..."

> Try holding her nose shut.

[Hello Purvis]

>Don't mess Reimu's nose, we like breathing too.
>Nudge her with a foot.

[IdiotsOpposite]

Or take one of our talons and poke her in the foot. That's a option too.

[Raikaria]

> Try holding her nose shut.

Or take one of our talons and poke her in the foot. That's a option too.

> You decide you will take the option least likly to annoy Reimu.

> You nudge her with your foot a few times, and after some more groaning, this time about Marisa, she sits up.

> "Huh? Why was I asleep out here, and why is my donation box op.... oh yeah."

[Hanzo K.]

>Nod. "I figured I'd grease the wheels a little, y'know? I know you hardly ever get any of the shinies, so I brought some along. See, I'm looking for a tub to put lampreys in, so I don't have to go running off to the lake every time someone orders food."
>"Now, the people I talked to said to check out the border. And I remembered that you live near it, so I figured you might either know where I can find one, or you might have an extra one lying around."
