>"You can't hide forever!"

>Considering the voices almost definitely belong to the Three Fairies of Light, one of whom has the ability to bend the light around them to keep themselves hidden possibly indefinitely, yeah, they can probably hide forever. Unless...
>A small, deliberate cough catches your attention. Daiyousei has stopped before one tree in particular, and subtly points upwards. Looks like she's pinpointed the source. You knew you could rely on her expert hide-and-seek skills. She always finds you.

>Nod. Scale tree slowly. We should take this opportunity to spook them, it's too good.

>With great care, you slowly climb the tree. About halfway up, you hear the giggling stop, replaced by voices.
>"Where'd she go?" says one, a clear, bright voice you recognize as Star Sapphire's. "She was just here, knocking on trees and stuff..."
>"Maybe she left?" the gentler voice of Luna Child chimes in.
>"Nah, Star would've known," Sunny Milk argues. "I bet she's hiding!"
>Uh oh. Sounds like they could be on to you.

>Daiyousei looks at you, confused. "B-but I already found them..."
>That seems to have done the trick. "Haha, I knew that dumb fairy wouldn't find us," Sunny says triumphantly.
>"But you just said-"
>"Shut up!" Sounds of a brief scuffle can be heard.

>Daiyousei takes off as well, looking highly confused. Once the two of you are a fair distance away, she whispers, "Cirno, wh-what's going on? I thought we wanted their h-help."

>"I d-don't want to be a predator," Daiyousei mumbles, concerned, but follows you nonetheless.
>What's your plan for sneaking up on the trio?

>"All right. I'll be qu-quiet." The two of you silently touch down and make your way towards the trio's house.

((So I'm about to get on a plane for 10 hours. Feel free to reply, but I won't see it for quite some time. See y'all then!))

>The two of you approach the tree without making a sound. It's as if Luna Child herself were muffling your approach. Daiyousei indicates the tree you were scaling before. "H-here it is," she whispers. "What should I d-do?"

((Guh, sorry for the long absence. I'm in London right now, and the double whammy of no data roaming and trying to adjust for jet lag has meant I haven't had a lot of time to check this. I'll try to be better about it.))

>Daiyousei nods, and retreats into the bushes, watching you.
>Approaching the tree, you can hear the fairies talking. They appear to be in some kind of heated argument, so they're probably not going to be paying too much attention to your approach.

> " - does she even know we live here? I thought the whole point was people wouldn't find us here." A pause, then a sullen "Not like it stopped Reimu..."
> "Iunno, maybe you were making too much noise? You're so louuud, Star."
> "But Luna's got us covered with that, right?"
> There's a very, very long pause.
> "Right?"
> Abruptly, all sound from the tree cuts off. You have a sneaking suspicion you know why.

>It's a little reedy, and your voice cracks halfway through, but you manage a decent Reimu impression, and capture her patented 'shit's about to go down' tone quite nicely (mainly because you've heard it used on you too many times for comfort). A moment later the tree seems to wobble as the illusion maintaining its invisibility wavers and dissipates, and the three fairies come scrambling out of the newly-revealed door, stumbling over one another in terror and falling to the ground in an undignified heap.

>You can't help yourself. You burst into raucous laughter at the sight of the trio flat on the ground. That went even better than you hoped. At the sound of your laughter Sunny looks up sharply as best she can from her current position.
>"Oh come on," she groans. "Again?" She reaches up and boys the other two on the head. "You stupid heads, it's Cirno! You fell for it!"
>"Yeah, well, you were just as scared," Star sullenly mutters, slightly muffled by Luna's dress.
>"Was not!"
>"Was too!" The two fall into a heated argument, kicking and scratching at one another. Luna is drawn into it as well, if only to protect herself from the two fighting fairies she's squished between.

>"Told you we'd find you guys, 'cause I'm the strongest!"
>"Alright Dai-chan it worked, we found them."

>All three of them, in a surprising display of unity, simultaneously stick out their tongues at you. Then they go back to fighting.
>Daiyousei is paralyzed with laughter as well; so much so, she fell out of the bush she was hiding in. She gives a shaky thumbs up from where she's lying, though.
