If we have enough energy to demonstrate-

Otherwise-

>"Well... I should be able to."

>You've never felt drained after opening a tear with YuugenMagan's assistance, so you feel like you could open a tear or two.
>You visualize the spot where you found Rumia and open a tear that leads to it.
>Interestingly enough, you aren't feeling as drained as normal when you're opening this tear, in fact, you feel like you can keep this one open for a while, even though normally tears of this size tire you out within a couple of minutes. The inside of the tear still looks eerily similar to one of Yukari's gaps.

>Patchouli and Sakuya seem to be studying the tear curiously.

>"You know, Mary, I've seen one other person in Gensokyo that can do something like that. Perhaps it would be in your best interest to seek her out..." Sakuya says after a few seconds.

Serela · « **Reply #39 on:** July 04, 2016, 03:25:55 AM »

this is the awkward part. >_> We don't want them to do the slightest thing in terms of trying to contact Yukari about this. At the very least, not until we've done our business with Sumireko.

If we don't say we met Yukari, they'll likely keep suggesting we do so- or even say something to Yukari sooner or later if they get a chance. It should be harmless enough to mention we've spoken with her, and then they won't feel any need to bring her into this... probably.

>Slowly close the gap. We don't want to have them caught in it or something as it shuts.
>"Oh, uhm, you mean Lady Yukari? I actually have talked with her... she got me started on learning flying and danmaku."

Patchouli answers, "Not much can be done about it, I'm afraid, but most of the time I can manage. Especially on a good day, which we are fortunate to be meeting on. And at least now there's readily available treatment in the event I have an asthma attack..."
