[COMPLETE] Rumia Quest V Cont: Everything comes together

[Raikaria]

>"Ha-HA! I'll figure this out soon enough!"
>Then look to Dai with a smile. "But you're lookin' worn out, so we'll stop here for now."

> "Yeah, making pillars of earth is quite tiring." Daiyousei says, sitting one the ground.

[Hanzo K.]

>Grin. "I bet you could use 'em as an attack spell too."
>Gesture in a wild and hammy way as we speak. "Like, you knock 'em off balance with a blast of water, Splash-o! Then, make the pillars pop up real fast under your opponent, boom! And then, you blast 'em outta the sky with a tornado, whoosh! And while they're stuck in the tornado, you pound 'em with with fireballs! Ka-Blammo!"

> Daiyouise starts flailing her arms around in protest; "Whatever would I need that amount of overkill for? Besides, it takes time to use a spell, I can't combo spells that strong that fast!"

[Hanzo K.]

>Headtilt with our arms crossed and a puzzled/thoughtful expression. "...I dunno, to show off how strong you've gotten later on? Since your spells are already strong enough, what you should work on is either improving your stamina so you can use more of 'em, or figure out how to make 'em less taxing. Y'know?"
>Nod while keeping the same posture. "Or maybe work on your casting speed. I can see that kinda idea being used as a Spellcard y'know. That'd make it a lot easier to use for sure."

> "Yes, it might be possible to do something like that as danmaku in a spellcard trance, but the actual magical power of danmaku is next to none, it's nowhere near as draining." Daiyousei says.

> "As for stamina, I guess that's a problem I share with Patchouli, albeit, in a different way. I only just started learning magic, after all, and Patchouli has her illnesses holding her back. That said, I find support magic a lot less taxing, probably because it's my affinity." Dai explains.

[Hanzo K.]

>Grin. "Maybe you oughta start working on your physical ability too. I bet Hong can help you work on your stamina. That way you'll be able to use support magic even more. Maybe even be able to do stuff like me in a way, but with the elements. Like an axe made of stone, a sword made of fire, a shield made of water, or even a bow made of the wind!"
>Grin widely. "Dai, you got a lotta potential, I can see it!"

[Darkoda]

>"Or maybe knives or kunai!"

[Raikaria]

>Grin. "Maybe you oughta start working on your physical ability too. I bet Hong can help you work on your stamina. That way you'll be able to use support magic even more.

>Grin widely. "Dai, you got a lotta potential, I can see it!"

> "Ah, but that's probably why Patchouli said I should speak with Byakuren, since she's like me with her magic, she knows more about it then her."

> Daiyousei blushes a little in embarrassment.

>"Or maybe knives or kunai!"

> "I dunno, I already could do kunai danmaku anyway."

[Hanzo K.]

>Fistpalm. "Add wind to the Kunai Danmaku. I bet it'll make 'em go a lot faster!"
>...Aha! Where's Cirno, she still in the area? Or did she wander off?

[Raikaria]

>Fistpalm. "Add wind to the Kunai Danmaku. I bet it'll make 'em go a lot faster!"
>...Aha! Where's Cirno, she still in the area? Or did she wander off?

> "Maybe. But just throwing the danmaku harder does that."

> Cirno is floating aimlessly over the lake.

[Hanzo K.]

>Nod. "Yeah, but this way you won't have to exert quite as much, and they'll hit harder too!"
>Grin. "Let's go get Cirno, I had another idea I wanted to try, but I need a really big target for it. This move might work out as an Anti-Giant attack, like what the one Evil Eye was."
>Beat.
>Slow realization~! We're always late to the party, aren't we? "Waaaaait...You said that Danmaku has almost no Magical power. That would mean that there's hardly any energy to harvest from it, yeah?"

[Raikaria]

>Nod. "Yeah, but this way you won't have to exert quite as much, and they'll hit harder too!"

>Slow realization~! We're always late to the party, aren't we? "Waaaaait...You said that Danmaku has almost no Magical power. That would mean that there's hardly any energy to harvest from it, yeah?"

> "Each danmaku has hardly any power individually. Add it all up and it starts to add up, like each fairy is weak, but if they all unite, they're actually pretty strong. Put enough straws on the camel's back and it'll break eventually."

> You fly over to Cirno, who is blissfully oblivious to you and Daiyousei, as she's daydreaming in mid-air.

[Hanzo K.]

>Let's flick a low-power danmaku at her, just enough to knock her out of her little daydream.

[Raikaria]

>Let's flick a low-power danmaku at her, just enough to knock her out of her little daydream.

> Being sure to not aim at Cirno's head, you fling a basic danmaku at her.

> "Who wants to fight!" she says, turning around, before relaxing upon seeing you and Dai. "Oh, it's you guys. Nevermind." Cirno says, before she looks around. "Anyone 'sides me noticed this place is kinda quiet recently?"

[Hanzo K.]

>"Come to think of it..."
>Frown like something bad's afoot. "I hope that the other fairies are okay. Normally there's at least four or five others milling about and just havin' fun."
>Look to Dai. "Dai, think you can pick up on any fairies with that magicsense stuff of yours?"

[Raikaria]

>"Come to think of it..."
>Frown like something bad's afoot. "I hope that the other fairies are okay. Normally there's at least four or five others milling about and just havin' fun."
>Look to Dai. "Dai, think you can pick up on any fairies with that magicsense stuff of yours?"

> "Usually there's more than that... I think." Cirno says. Cirno has issues counting... and remembering.

> "Yes. There are." Daiyousei says. "And I highly doubt Cirno's beaten them all up and made them all respawn at the same time. That said, they could just be hiding and puling a prank on Cirno..."

> Daiyousei thinks for a few moments.

> "Wait a second. I'm sure there were more fairies in the mansion than usual..."

> "They did all say there was some kinda party going on in the mansion." Cirno says.

> "Oh dear." Daiyousei says.

[Hanzo K.]

>"...Oh, not good. We'd better go make sure they aren't wrecking the place too badly."
>Let's go!

[Raikaria]

>"...Oh, not good. We'd better go make sure they aren't wrecking the place too badly."
>Let's go!

> "We already did that. I think a large number of the 'reinforcements' were probably the lake's fairies who put on maid outfits..." Daiyousei says.

> Regardless, you, Cirno and Dai head back to the mansion. When you get inside, you see the fairies are still zoned out on the ground where you left them, except Flandre is poking one of them, who seems to react every time she's poked in a different way.

> You put this down to the fact that removing Flan's insanity probably didn't magically give her more maturity than someone who is about six to eight years old, seeing as you guess that's the age she got turned into a vampire and went mad, with her physical form.

[Hanzo K.]

>Heh. let's go join her then! "Poooke~ Poooke~ Hee-hee~"
>Hey, just because we're a bit more mature, that doesn't mean we can't have a little fun like this every now and again.

[Raikaria]

>Heh. let's go join her then! "Poooke~ Poooke~ Hee-hee~"
>Hey, just because we're a bit more mature, that doesn't mean we can't have a little fun like this every now and again.

> You poke a different fairy. She lets out a little squeak after a few pokes, then rolls over, only to roll back over because she couldn't breathe.

[Hanzo K.]

>"Hee-hee~"
>Poke. Poke-poke. Poke. Poke-poke-poke. Hehe, this is kinda fun.

[Raikaria]

>"Hee-hee~"
>Poke. Poke-poke. Poke. Poke-poke-poke. Hehe, this is kinda fun.

> You keep poking the fairy. Cirno by now has joined in and is poking every fairy she can reach. One of them reflexively smacks her in the face, causing Cirno to turn it into an icecube.

> This in turn starts Flandre poking other fairies, and quickly leads to Cirno and Flandre having a 'who can poke the most' contest, which ends very quickly as Flandre puts on a spurt of vampire speed and pokes all the fairies almost at once, the rushing vampire waking up a few.

> "Eh? Uh? What?" the woken fairies grumble.

[Hanzo K.]

>"Heh, you guys..."
>Let's keep poking at our fairy we've chosen.

[Raikaria]

>"Heh, you guys..."
>Let's keep poking at our fairy we've chosen.

> The fairy you chose proceeds to wake up.

> "Ugg?" she groans.

[Hanzo K.]

>"Hey, you work here, right? I think you'd better start cleanin' up if you do."

[Raikaria]

>"Hey, you work here, right? I think you'd better start cleanin' up if you do."

> "No, I don't work here. I came for the party and the dress." the fairy groans, before adding, "Then some meanies beat us up."

[Hanzo K.]

>Put on a believable look of mock shock. "That's horrible! Did you get a good look at the one who did it?"
>Nothing like messing with a fairy.

[Raikaria]

>Put on a believable look of mock shock. "That's horrible! Did you get a good look at the one who did it?"
>Nothing like messing with a fairy.

> "No... there was just a whole lotta darkness."

[Hanzo K.]

>Let's make the area around us go dark. "Like this?"

[Raikaria]

>Let's make the area around us go dark. "Like this?"

> "The darkness is back!" the fairy cries, with her, and a lot of the others looking scared. "Behind you!"

> They all seem too dumb to figure out it's linked to you.
